Perfect Match 17

Thinking It Over

Fox sat by Kay's beside and held her hand. He had never made a woman faint before. Not ever in his entire life had this happened, then again he had never asked a woman to marry him. Sure he knew that he'd only known Kay for seven months but that didn't matter because he felt closer to her than anyone he'd ever met in his entire life.

Simone walked into the hospital room and saw Fox holding Kay's hand. She touched his shoulder to alert him of his prescense. He looked up. "Hey."

"What happened?'Simone asked looking at Kay then back to him.

"She fainted"he explained. "And has a mild concussion, or at least thats what your mom said."

"How'd she faint"Simone sat down in a chair across from the two.

Fox sighed, releasing Kay's hand. "I asked her to marry me. If I'd known the stress she was under lately I never would have asked."

Simone eyes widened at the suddeness of Fox's words. "Fox you asked Kay ot marry you?"

"Yeah."

"Do you care about her? How she feels inside? Because if you don't then asking her to marry you is wrong." Simone sighed as she saw Fox rub his hands through his hair. He then stood up.

"Simone I do care about Kay. I really do." Fox moved towards the door. "If she wakes up before I get back, tell her I'm getting some coffee." He wandered outside, and for a second he thought about why he was really doing this.

Kay sat up, her head aching. She felt like a giant rock had crashed into her. She opened her eyes and felt like she was going to puke.

"Kay"Simone came over. "Are you okay?"

"You tell me. What happened?"

"You don't remember?'Simone frowned figuring that if someone asked you to marry them you'd remember it.

"Just that I was at home, and Fox stopped by. Oh...................and he asked me to marry him. Then it went black." Kay looked at Simone.

"So now that you remember, what are you going to do?"

"Hes my friend. What am i suppose to do."

"Say no."

"Why?"

"Because there is a motive behind this, I know it. Kay, I don't wanna see you get hurt again. Maybe Miguel was right. Fox can't be trusted." Simone folded her arms looking at Kay with sympathy.

"I will never let another man hurt me like Miguel hurt me. Never."

"Well then don't let Fox be another Miguel. Kay I think your expecting to much from Fox expecting that maybe hes just a little in love with you. Maybe." Simone sighed.

Fox starred at his coffee, as if expecting to see his future with Kay appearing. Would she say yes? So many questions he wanted answers to. He was a Crane. He always knew what was expected of him. His father had taught him a few things in life. A few things which he lived by. One, its okay to want things, because no matter what, money can buy it. Two, its okay to want women, because they too can be bought. Three, its okay to toy with women's hearts, because you don't have to care about them. Four,once you fall in love with a woman, make sure its actual love. And five love doesn't exist. So he lived his whole life by those five rules. And they worked.

He felt a hand on his shoulder and looked up into magnificant green eyes. Ones he hadn't seen in over a year.

Author's Note: Thanks for all the reviews. OmG I can't believe I am on chapter 17. I never imagined that this story would have as many reviews as it does, thanks so much. You guys are really great. I couldn't imagine having a great fan base for this story than it already does.

I am sorry that not everyone likes this fic, and to those who don't, I'm sorry. I can't fix the world for you. I don't remember stating that Therox fics are gay, I just think they are over done. But if I did say it I'm sorry. I respect my fellow writers, so i don't appreciate people reviewing and telling me they don't like my fic, and criticize my pairings. So thanks everyone who does like the fic and reviews.
