Darry's Girl

Darry's POV

I looked at Soda in disbelief. I could not believe he was doing this! But then I thought I have to and then to my surprise I nodded. Emily nodded and then she walked to the bathroom to have a shower. Then I thought what about the ring? When I heard the shower I turned to Soda and whispered,

"Does everyone know?" he nodded,

"Yeah I told them" it was my turn to nod.

"What about the ring?"

"Oh crap!" just then Pony smiled and said,

"Hey Two-Bit how fast can you eat a cake?" I could not believe it he was a genius!

"Very, very fast" Two-Bit responded

"Eat!" just then he started to eat with Steve's help. It was like feeding time at the zoo. They finished in a matter of minutes. Then Soda said,

"Go get groceries" he winked.

"Thanks guys!" and I grabbed my jacket and wallet and ran out the door.

Soda's POV

I watched Darry run out the door. I smiled. I looked over at the two cake covered things also known as Two-Bit and Steve.

"That was good cake" said Two-Bit.

"Yeah" responded Steve. Pony and I laughed. Just then Emily came out of the shower.

"Where's Darry?" I can't lie so I am glad that Pony said,

"He went to get groceries" she nodded. Just then we heard Anna crying from her bedroom. Emily went.

"Good job guys" I said and all I heard in return was a groan.

Darry's POV

I walked into the jewelry store and started looking around. They were all really expensive. Then I saw it. It was perfect. It was white gold with a plain band and a big square diamond in the middle. It was not even that expensive! I went up to the cashier.

"Can I have that one?" the cashier nodded.

"That one is one of my favorites"

"Yeah it's really nice" I answered. He gave me the ring. I opened the box and looked inside. Emily would love it. Just then I got really nervous. I am going to propose to Emily TONIGHT! My heart started beating really hard. I said goodbye to the cashier and walked out of the store. I felt like I was going to through up. I felt like I was on a roller coaster. I had so many thoughts in my mind like, what will I say? What if she says no because she thought she wanted to get married but she didn't? What if I chicken out! I took a deep breath and calmed down. I got into the truck and drove home. But then I thought of something I should be more afraid of. What my house will look like when I get home! I left Soda in charge and the guys ate a whole cake! I then turned around I was expected to bring home groceries!

I pulled into the drive way and I was glad that the house was burned down. I walked into and saw Emily feeding Anna, Two-Bit watching Mickey Mouse, Steve and Soda arm wrestling, and Pony was reading. Emily walked up to me and kissed me. Anna grabbed me by the face and pulled me down and laughed.

"Hey sweetie" just then Two-bit ran up and said,

"Look at this" he took Anna and lifted her and said,

"Crackers!" Anna started laughing like crazy. We all laughed.

Emily was getting ready for our evening. I was ready already. I asked Soda into the kitchen. He came in right away.

"Tonight's the night" he gave me a playful punch. I took a deep breath.

"Yeah" I answered.

"You'll be fine" I nodded

"Are you going to be fine with Anna?"

"God Darry relax, you go have fun and we will be more then fine, we will be great" he smiled.

"Ok" I walked into the living room and picked up Anna and said,

"You be good" then I looked at Two-Bit and Steve, "You too" they nodded. Just then Emily walked out and I was blown away. She was wearing a midnight blue dress that had a V neck that was just above her knees that flowed, she had a fine silver chain on and her hair was down. She had the same color of shoes as her dress that also matched my black dress shirt. She walked over and smiled,

"Ready?" I pulled myself back to reality and nodded.

"Ok guys please keep the house in one piece"

"We will be fine Darry have fun" said Soda as he pushed us out the door. He winked and we left.

We sat at the table for dinner. I looked at Emily. She was so beautiful. She looked at me staring at her and said,

"Can I help you?" I laughed

"You look nice"

"Thanks" she tucked her hair behind her ear. I felt my pocket there was the ring. I took a deep breath.

"Are you ok?" Emily asked with concern.

"Oh yeah I'm fine it's just warm in here" I lied. What was I supposed to say? Oh I'm just nervous cause I am going to propose to you tonight. I didn't think so.

After we were done eating, my heart started to pond out of my chest. I hope she didn't lean against me or she would feel it. I took a deep breath again and lead her to the truck. We got to the park and I parked on the road. I saw the fountain were Johnny killed the Soc and I shuddered. This was a nice park. The fountain was in the middle, benches scattered around, a small hill, and a play area in the back. As Pony said in his English report the park was left for kids and lovers, which we were. It appeared that we were the only ones in the park. Perfect.

"Were do you want to sit?" I asked Emily as she looked at me with those chestnut eyes that I love so much.

"Over there on the hill so we can watch the stars" we went over and I thought this is it. We both sat down. I thought of just doing it now but it wasn't the right time. I sat next to her and she leaned against my shoulder. I wrapped my arm around her shoulder. She looked up at the stars.

"They are so beautiful"

"Yeah they are" This was the best I was going to get. This was it. I took a deep breath and stood up. She looked at me like I was crazy and then…

OOO suspense! Hope you liked it! Thanks to all reviewers! I will have the next chapter up soon!
