Glenn finally sat him down before a show one night and said, "Mark…you've got to do something with yourself…you love Sami…and I also know you're in love with her…man just go tell her you want to be with her for the rest of your life…you know she'll never break your heart…or hurt you…she won't runaway from you, she's not afraid of you…you can make her laugh harder then anyone else I know…and when you're pissed off…no one can make you smile in less then 5 seconds like Samantha can…Just friggen tell her."
Mark sighed and said, "I know…I'm just gonna need a little more time…this isn't exactly the easiest thing for me to do…hell with Sara it was easy…I saw her, she saw me…and that was it…with Sami it's different…I love her and yes I'm in love with her…but my heart keeps trying to throw me off…and tell me she's just going to leave me like Sara did." Glenn said, "Mark, Sara did not leave you…not willingly at least, she died…Samantha would never leave you unless you forced her too…Hell I don't know how she's put up with all your shit…I'm really surprised you haven't lost her forever yet."
Mark just looked at Glenn…he knew he was right…but he'd have to figure out what to do…then he just said, "Fuck it. If it works it works, if it doesn't…then fuck it too." Mark left Glenn's hotel room and stalked down to my room…when he banged on the door and I didn't answer he called my cell phone and I answered…he said, "Where in the hell are you?" I said, "Mark…I'm at the arena…trying to make sure my supplies are stocked for tonight." He said, "Stay in your office…I'm coming to talk to you right now." I didn't get a chance to say anything he hung up…
I waited for like 10 minutes…and decided to go back to stocking the supplies…I walked down and grabbed a bottle of water…on my way back…Mark was walking towards me…he looked damn good too…he had on levis and his red Big Evil t-shirt on, with the sleeves cut off…the girls in the wardrobe knew he hated sleeves…so they cut them off and hemmed them to look presentable. Then he had on a black baseball cap that said 'Deadman Inc' across it…and of course those damned sunglasses.
I had to exhale slowly for fear of passing out at just the sight of him.
Mark took his sunglasses off (shocker there…he hardly ever did that) hooked them on the collar of his t-shirt and said, "I thought I told you to stay put in your office." I said, "I was trying to finish my stocking so I could rest a little before the show started later." Mark came up and in front of every one said, "Put the water down for a minute."
I placed it back on the table…by now Glenn had rounded the corner with Matt, Jeff, Trish and Amy on his trail…they were looking for Mark to go over their ring moves for later. I said, "Okay…Mark what's going on? Are you okay?" Mark said, "Oh, I'm just fine…if you consider being in love with someone for 3 years okay…" I said, "Huh?"
Mark pointed at me while pacing back and forth in front of me and said, "Do you love me?" I said, "You already know I do." He said, "Short simple yes and no answers will be fine…Do you love me?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Are you in love with me?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Can you see yourself being with me for the rest of our lives?" I said, "Yes."
Mark walked up and stopped 2 feet away from me and with his hands on his hips said, "Are you sure you want me?" I blinked and tears slid down my cheeks and said, "Yes." He said, "And you're are sure there is no one else you'd rather be with?" I said, "Yes." Mark said, "Well…just to clarify…I love you, I am in love with you, I want you to be with me for the rest of our lives, I'm positive I want you, and I know for a fact there is no one else I'd rather be with then you…Samantha…Marry me please?"
I stood there for a minute…and just looked into his hypnotizing green eyes…and blinked and more tears came out…and I said, "Yes." Mark wrapped his arms around my waist and lifted me off the floor to be level with him and he kissed me…it was the most amazing kiss in my life…when he planted me back on the floor…he pulled a box out of his jean pocket and opened it…and I thought I was going to have a heart attack…it was a 2 karat diamond ring, the stone was cut into the shape of a heart…with a silver band, cause he knew I didn't like gold…
Mark slipped it on my finger…and said, "I really hope you're ready for this…we're getting married in 2 weeks…no if, ands or buts. Were going to do it, before either of us change our mind…" I said, "I would never change my mind Mark…I love you…that's all there is to it." Mark said, "I love you too…" He pulled me close and kissed me again…Glenn was jumping up and down and trying to call Jamie…
