A/N: I only own Iris. Keep up the reviews and suggestions.

Iris POV

I was sitting there when John came up.

"Can I talk to you?" John asked me. I looked at him. He was serious and I knew I really needed to talk to me.

"John… sure." I said. He smiled and offered me his hand.

"Let's go somewhere." he said.

"Alright, let me tell Steph where I am going." I said.

"Hurry." he said.

I walked in there and grabbed my purse.

"I am going to talk with John. See ya tonight at the hotel." I said. Stephanie smiled at me. I turned to leave.

"Iris." Paul said. I turned to look at him.

"Listen to your heart. Do what you want to do and feel is right." he said. He smiled at me. I smiled and walked off.

Paul POV

Iris just left to go talk with John.

"I hope she does what she wants to." I said and I realized something. I looked at Stephanie.

"What?" she asked me. I was staring at her.

"Marry me, again." I said. I knew I loved her and I didn't care how many children we had, who cared, or what the problems were.

"Paul." she said.

"Steph, we can fix any problems we had. I love you to much to lose you." I told her. She had tears in her eyes.

"Go." Dave said.

"What?" I asked him.

"Call Vince and go." he said. I smiled at Steph.

"I'll tell Iris." he said.

"Thanks." I said.

We left. I was so happy. I loved her and I wanted her to know it. We went to straight to the airport. I didn't know where we were going, but it was us together. Linda had the twins and we had a second honeymoon.

John POV

I walked with Iris to a limo. We got in. I was nervous all over again being with her. It was like the first time I laid eyes on her. She was just as beautiful. She caught me watching her. I smiled at her.

Iris POV

I was nervous. Why was I nervous? I had been around him plenty of times. I had dated him for almost 9 months and now I was nervous. I looked over and he was staring at me. He smiled at me. I smiled back.

He is so sexy. I miss him. I thought as I looked at him.

John POV

We finally arrived at the restaurant. I helped her out and we went in. I was in a suit and she was in her dress. We fit right in. The restaurant was elegant. We were seated on the balcony. The summer was ending but a warm breeze blew that night. She was looking at the sites.

"It is beautiful." she whispered.

"Yeah it is." I said looking at her. I laid a present in front of her. She looked at it and at me.

"I didn't forget your birthday. I just had to find the right time to give it to you." I said.

She careful picked up and delicately wrapped box. She unwrapped it and opened it. She gasped and looked at me.

"John." she said. I smiled at her.

"I hope you like it." I said. She pulled the necklace out. I had gotten her a diamond necklace. I helped her put it on. It sparkled like her eyes.

"Dance with me." she said. The music was slow and soft.

I got up and we began to dance. I missed the feeling she gave me when she was this close. The feeling wasn't sexual, but a love.

"Come home with me for Mom's birthday." I whispered in her ear.

"When?" she asked me.

"Next week." I said.

"You have to talk to Vince about me having it off." she said. I nodded and smiled.

"I promise you will have it off." I said. I smiled at her. I was so happy but I didn't know if she was. I hoped that she was.

We finished dancing and ate. We were sitting there watching clouds roll in.

"I wanted to ask you something." I said. She looked at me.

"Hmm?" she asked.

"What were you trying to protect me from?" I asked her. She sighed and looked back at the city.

"If I tell you, then you have to tell me what gave you the inspiration for the song." she said. I nodded and she sighed. She wouldn't look at me.

"I was protecting you from me. I didn't want to break your heart again." she said.

"I got the inspiration from you. You are my angel. You kept me from doing thing I didn't need to do, being a person I am not, and loving me for the person I am." I said. She nodded.

"It's late. I want to go." she said. I sighed; she was pushing me away again.

I paid and we left. The limo ride was silent. We arrived back the hotel. I walked her to her suite. Trish had gotten her one for being a bride's maid.

"Iris, tell me why you keep pushing me away." I asked her. She sighed and opened the door. I didn't want her to close the door on me again.

A/N: Let know what you think.
