Chapter 4 - Romance Under the Stars
Shane took Terri home two days later and immediately moved her things to his house. It was two weeks later and he was still on cloud nine that she had agreed to the move. He was also excited about having so much time off with her. It would be nice to spend some time together without the stresses of the road.
The only bad thought he kept having was what Terri had said in the hospital about Trish hurting her intentionally. He remembered what had happened the last time that Trish had started with them. He had almost lost Terri and he didn't want to go through that again!
"So baby, what is on the agenda for today? I don't know what to do with myself with all this time off!" Terri said as she hobbled into the kitchen on her crutches and sat down.
"Well, it is a gorgeous day, and I want to celebrate us moving in together. So if you can hobble out to my car, I have a surprise for you!" He said.
"As she rose from her chair she gave him a questioning look, "What did you do Shane?" she asked, but headed for the door.
He knew she loved surprises, and this would be the first one he had planned that she didn't find out about before hand!
"Trust me!" he said leaning in to kiss her, "You'll love it!"
Part 2
They drove for 10 minutes before Shane pulled off on a secluded side road, then drove for 5 more on a small tree lined gravel road before they finally cane to a clearing.
It was a beautiful meadow on the edge of a lake. Shane had a mesh tent surrounding a beautiful table complete with meal and a huge bed covered in rose petals.
Terri stared at the site with her mouth hanging open in complete awe.
"Shane it is beautiful! When did you have time to do all this?" She asked as he picked her up out of the car. "This is the most romantic thing I have ever seen!"
"You are beautiful." He said, "And as for time, a man never tells his secrets!" he winked.
"I just wanted to spend a romantic night with you. With our schedules we never seem to have the time. I just wanted to show you how much I love you!" He said.
They spent the afternoon eating and talking. When the sun started to go down, Shane started a fire so they wouldn't get cold. Shane put his hand in his pocket; the ring was there. He had carried it around in his pocket since they had gotten home over two weeks ago, waiting for the right time. Tonight was the night.
Part 3
Snuggling together by the bonfire was the most amazing thing she had done. In fact the entire day was the best she had ever had. She was here in this beautiful place with the man she loved. She had never been this happy.
"Penny for your thoughts?" Shane whispered.
"Mmmmm..just thinking about how lucky I am. I have an awesome job that I love, great family and friends. I have just had the most romantic day of my life, and best of all I have you! I love you Shane, and I never want any of this to end!" she sighed and leaned against him.
Shane took that as his cue. "Well, maybe it doesn't have too end." He said as he reached for the ring. "Terri, I love you. I want to make every day the best you have ever had. I want to be your hero when you need me to be. I told you once you were my life, now I want you to be my life forever." He placed the ring in front of her, "Terri, will you marry me?"
Terri looked at the ring, then up into Shane's eyes. "Oh Shane," she replied softly. "You own my heart and will forever. You make me whole and have since the first time we met. You have always been my hero and you will be for the rest of my life." She replied through tears, "Yes baby, I will marry you!"
He bent down and kissed her, his heart ready to explode! He had never been so happy.
"Shane this ring is beautiful!" she said as he slid the ring onto her finger.
"It has meaning," he said, "the teardrop represents the tears of sadness that we both had to shed before we found each other, then the tears turned to ones of happiness."
"Oh my," she whispered, "Now that I have you I will never shed another tear in sadness." She said.
Shane picked her up carefully and carried her to the bed where they gently made love for hours under the stars. Finally falling asleep in each other's arms just before dawn.
A/N: I know..pretty mushy stuff..but I think the chapter works within the story! What do you guys think?
