Chapter Twenty-Four: The Big Question
It had been a month since Squid had finally awoken from the wreck he had been involved with and he had been released from the hospital. Everything now seemed to be going right back to where it should be. Everything except Richard... Richard had become very quiet and distant from everyone, including Kaylie.
"Richard," Brianna said, coming up to Richard's bedroom door. "Honey come out... Please!"
"No," mumbled Richard, from inside his bedroom. Brianna sighed and went into the living room. Squid looked over at her, smiling. Brianna sat down grimly beside Squid. She laid her head upon his shoulder.
Squid put his arm around her. "Any luck?" he asked her. Brianna shook her head, miserably. Kaylie, who was sitting in the recliner, looked worried. She sighed. She had grown extremely worried about her boyfriend, Richard. He had never acted this before, she prayed nothing was wrong... She laid back on the recliner and watched TV and began to think about the first time she had seen Richard...
* Flashback *
Kaylie was working a double shift at the cafe she worked at along with her friend Shannon (A/N: HAHAHAHAHAHA I'm so original huh shannon?). The clock had just struck seven at night and Kaylie had two more hours to go..
"Hey Kaylie?" asked Shannon, as she cleaned a table top next tp the table Kaylie was cleaning.
Kaylie turned to her. "Yeah?"
"Here comes another tip for you..." SHannon said, pointing over to a table that was assigned to Kaylie. Kaylie rolled her eyes as she hurrily finished up cleaning the table. Shannon grinned, "He's hot."
"Shannon!" Kaylie groaned, rolling her eyes again. Kaylie looked over at the table and instantly blushed. "SHannon! I can't waitress that table!" Kaylie moaned, blushing.
Shannon cocked an eyebrow. "Why?"
"I-it's Richard... You know... that one in my Statistics class... That one I've kinda gotten a crush on!" Kaylie hissed, angrily. Shannon smirked as she glanced over at Richard.
"You hafta... It's your table plus he might like you if you do a good job!" Shannon said, pushing Kaylie over to Richard's table. Kaylie knew Richard came into this cafe every Saturday and always ordered a cup of coffee and a slice of pepperoni pizza. He always would read the paper too... Shannon called Kaylie obsessed, but Kaylie was not, she was in love.
Kaylie apporached Richard's table and smiled, hoping she was not blushing. RIchard looked up at her and smiled. "Do I know you?" asked Richard. Kaylie gave him a childish smile.
"We're in the same Statisics class at NOU," admitted Kaylie. She could not make eye contact with him, it was just too embarassing for her. Richard smiled more and placed his newspaper down on the table. Kaylie looked confused.
"You can sit down..." Richard told her, motioning to the seat in front of him at the table. Kaylie sat down slowly. "Your name's Kaylie right...?" he asked. She nodded. "Then you are that pretty girl that sits in front of me," Richard said, with a slight smirk which made Kaylie turn bright red. "I'm right because your whole face is red." He added, laughing slightly.
Kaylie smiled slightly, "Uhm well I should get back to work..." Kaylie stood up and started to walk away but was stopped by Richard grabbing her hand. She turned even redder as she turned around.
"Wait... I uh... was wondering... Do you have a boyfriend?" he asked.
Kaylie shook her head, miserably. "No," she said, afterwards. Richard smiled.
"Would you be my girlfriend then?" Richard asked her, looking into her eyes with his blue ones. She stared wide-eyed at Richard but then slowly nodded yes. He stared and then smiled more than what he had previously. He leaned into her and lightly pecked her on the cheek with a kiss. "Good," he whispered in her ear. "I'll meet you here next Friday around eight... We can go to the movies or something."
"I'd like that..." Kaylie said, quietly.
"I'll see ya in class then... Bye!" RIchard said, leaving the cafe and ten dollars on the table as a tip for absolutly nothing. He winked at her as he left. She turned to Shannon, who grinned at Kaylie cheesily.
"I TOLDYA HE'D ASK YOU OUT! HAHAHAHAHAHA! I'M GONNA TELL THE WHOLE SCHOOL!" Shannon said, giggling like crazy and then running outside the cafe. Kaylie chased after Shannon with a rolled up newspaper.
"IF YOU SAY ONE WORD I'LL KILL YOU SHANNON!!!!!!!!!!" Kaylie screamed, chasing after her friend.
* End of Flashback *
Kaylie sighed and got up from the recliner and headed to Richard's bedroom. She knocked on the door. "Richard! It's Kaylie! Baby! Please come out and tell me what's wrong!" Kaylie pleaded with him. Suddenly, Richard's bedroom door opened. Richard stood there smiling at Kaylie and then kissed her deeply on the mouth. She stared, confused at him. "Rich?" she asked. He winked at her mysteriously.
"I've got a surprise for ya, Kaylie..." Richard said, grinning oddly at Kaylie. He walked into the living room and went into a cabniet and pulled out a wrapped box with a purple ribbon on the top. Brianna watched Richard perplexed.
"Richard? What's going on?" asked Brianna.
"Yeah Rich... You've been locked up in yer room for the longest time..." admitted Squid. Richard smiled cheesily.
Kaylie came into the room and looked equally confused as Richard's parents. "Rich... C'mon and tell us what's going on!" said Kaylie, anxiously. Richard grabbed both of Kaylie hands and took her outside. It was night out and all the stars filled the sky. Richard sat on te porch swing with Kaylie beside him. He handed her the wrapped box.
"Open it..." He said, simply. She did. Inside of the box was a cute blue, velvet material stuffed teddy bear, but what was in its paw caught Kaylie's eyes.
A diamond ring.
Kaylie turned to Richard and he smirked. "Read the bear's stomach..."
Kaylie read the message aloud. "Will you marry me?" she quoted off the bear and then tears over took her. SHe threw her arms around Richard and he hugged her back. "I love you..." she whispered. "ANd yes I'll marry you..."
"Good..." he whispered into her ear as he did when he had asked her out. Kaylie kissed him about three times before he actually got the chance to put the engagement ring onto her finger.
"Alan!!! I think Richard proposed to Kaylie!" Brianna said, as she watched the coupld, or rather SPIED, through the window. Squid smiled widely.
"I knew it." he said calmly.
"Whatever..." hissed Brianna. Squid kissed Brianna deeply on the mouth. She smiled at him and kissed him back. "I love you..."
"I love you too..."
"There's gonna be another wedding!" giggled Brianna.
Squid rolled his eyes. "Just what I need... More crying and sappy boringness."
"THAT ISN'T EVEN A WORD ALAN!"
