Chapter 8- Suprise
Craig came and I moved out and we moved into a really nice apartment with Destiny. A couple of months later I found out I was pregnant. With our second child...more like third but lets just say second. Craig and I were having the most fun together. We were re-living those days when we were 14 & 15 you know. Except we had a now 6 yearold following us around everywhere. We wern't fighting, we wernt yelling at eachother we were just one big happy family it's just we wern't married. But hey everything was still good. Craig and I were eating at a fancy resturarant for Valentines day. When my favorite song came on.
"Oh Craig I would always love to be proposed to this song." I said
It was Ashanti & Lloyds song "Southside"
"I know Manny you tell me this everytime the song comes on." he said
"Well you know Craig.." I said
"Here's your recipt...sir." the waiter said
Craig paied and we left.
He then blind folded me and took me somewhere. We walked up a couple of steps and he unblind folded me.
"Where are we?" I asked
It looked like a big auditorim or something.
"Just sit down" he said
I sat down we were like in the third row.
There was an opening act so I guess we were at a concert. Then some guy came out and said
"Are ya'll ready to see princess of hip hop & r&b"
Everyone started to scream
"Then make some noise for Ashanti." He said
People started cheering
"Oh my gosh Craig it's an Ashanti concert." I said
"Yeah" he said smiling
"Thankyou" I said
"No problem" he said
The concert was awsome. it was almost over and
"I have to go to the bathroom" Craig said
"Ok" I said "but it's almost over"
"I'll be back soon enough." he said
"Ok" I said and he left
Ashanti went backstage and they were playing some sort of music and then she came back out
"For my last song I would like to introuduce you too two people" she said
"Llyod." she said
Lloyd came out
Oh my gosh there going to play southisde where is Craig he's going to miss it
"And Manny Nelson." she said
There was a spotlite on me
"Me" I said
She nodded
I got help getting up on the stage because you know I'm like 4 months pregnant.
"Hi Manny" she said
Oh my gosh Ashanti is saying hi to me
"Hi" I said
God Craig is missing everything
"I know that Southside is like your favorite song" she said "So sit down on that chair and we're gonig to sing it for you"
"Ok" I said and I sat on the chair
They started singing the song. Where's Craig? Craig came from the other side of the stage and walked over to me and they stopped singing and they were only playing the song in the background.
"Manny Nelson" he said
"Craig" I whisperd
"Manny, I love you" he said "Your having our second kid, we've been together for more than 6 years, I think we should be more seriouse than boyfriend and girlfriend, will you marry me?"
"Yes, yes I will" I said
and then he put a ring on my finger and I gave hm a kiss.
Then they started singing the song again
"Will the future mrs. manning like to dance with me." he said
"No, I would love to." I said
And we started dancing to southside.
It was beautiful it was wonderfull it was what I've always wanted. I am finally marying the guy of my life.
