Hey, Y'all here's a new update.
Chapter 9
Peggy's POV
"Peggy, Peggy, Peggy," someone was shaking me back and forth in their arms on the ground. For a minute I didn't know where I was or know who was holding me in their arms. Oh my gosh, it's John. He's holding me.
"John," I stir and open my eyes.
"Peggy, your alright. Oh, I was so worried. Peggy don't scare me like that." He says, pulling me tighter to his chest.
"John," I say.
"Yes?" He replies, not letting me go.
"I love you."
"I love you too."
"Is she okay," It was my coach running across the field with my sisters in tow.
"I'm okay," I say, looking up at them.
"Um, are we intruding or," Eliza says, looking at John and I. Angelica look like she was about to explode.
"Your okay, Ange please put away the anger face, I'm okay," I say looking at them.
"So are you still going to be able to run at tomorrow's practice meet?" My coach asks.
"Yes, and I'm running last again, and Miria's running third," I say.
"If you feel up to it," she says.
"Okay let's get you to the car love," says Ange.
"Here, I got her." John picks me up and carries me to Ange's car.
When we get to the car John says, "are you still up for a surprise?"
"Of course, We'll meet you there," I say sitting back into the seat.
"Alright see you then, I love you Pegs," he says giving me a blanket, his coat, and a kiss on the head. He closes the door, and as soon as he's gone Angelica and Eliza burst out laughing.
"Oh my gosh he must think you were cold or something. He gave you a coat and a blanket." Liza says looking at Ange and saying "also, what was the I love you thing." The I love you thing, aweeeeeee. Miria was right he does love me. Wow, what if we get married. Would Angelica let me get married? I mean I'm not getting married now, but Angelica is just about my older brother. She was so harsh when I started dating John. We've known him since we were babies, and he's Alex's best friend.
"Peggy! Peggy!" "PEGGY!"
"WHAT!"
Angelica and Eliza started laughing again.
"You are so in love," Angelica teased.
"Yeahhhhhh," I say staring off out the window. "Did John and Alex tell Y'all where we were going."
"Yup," Eliza says.
"Are you gonna tell me," I ask.
"Nope," replies Angelica.
"Well then," I reply slumping back into the seat. "I'll just wait until we get there."
2 HOURS LATER
"Are we almost there Ange?" I ask, looking up at her.
"Yup," she says being super vague.
"Oh hey take an exit here Ange," says Eliza.
"Okay, Peggy put on this blindfold," she hands me a yellow blindfold that I tie over my eyes.
"Okay, here I'll help you out of the car," says Eliza. We get out of the car.
"We're almost there," says Eliza.
"Okay Pegs take off the blindfold," says Ange. I take off the blindfold and see a beautiful candlelit table.
I squeal and run over to John and fling my arms around him. "John oh my goodness you shouldn't have."
"Yes I should have, it's our anniversary week, so I wanted to do this for you."
"Aweeeeeee," Eliza was crying into Alex's shoulder.
"So, I got everyone to come on a little date thing," says John.
"Thanks, John, that's so sweet." He lets me go, reluctantly, and leads me to a chair.
"My lady," he says pulling out the chair and getting me to sit down.
"Thank you, sir," I say giggling. Everyone comes to sit at the other tables. I look around and Angelica, Eliza, Alex and I gasp. "John Church is holding Angelica's hand."
"Awe that's kinda cute, almost as cute as you," John says with a smug smile.
"Oh my gosh John, that's so cheesy." I say giggling, "but thanks."
We eat all of our food and afterword John takes my home in his truck and walks me up the path to the front door.
"Bye Peggy," John says kissing my hand, he is so funny and old-fashioned.
"Bye John," I say.
"I will see you tomorrow for your second practice meet." He leans in and softly touches his lips on mine.
"I love you," I say giggling. I turn to the door but swiftly turn around and kiss him again.
"I love you too." He says turning around and walking down the path. I turn to open the door, and as soon as I hear John's door shut I hear a loud.
"Aweeeeeee," from Angelica and Eliza.
"Were you too spying on me?" I ask looking up at Eliza's window where my two sisters are looking at me.
"Maby," says Angelica. I shake my head, and walk inside quietly, sighing. I walk up the stairs, and into my room. I change into some yellow pajamas and walk into Eliza's room and crawl into bed.
"Hey, Ange?" I ask turning to her.
"Yes, Pegs?" She replies.
"I saw you with John Church today."
"Mhmm."
"You two where holding hands."
"Mhmm."
"Are you dating now or?" I ask.
"Yes actually he asked me out at the dinner," she says.
"It was adorable," says Eliza, "I can tell you their whole love story." We giggle and talk about our love stories until we fall asleep.
Thanks for reading! Please review! Next chapter is a second track meet.
