Okay, guys, I'm back! This is definitely one of my favorite quotes! And I've decided that if some of you want to request some quotes from FB or something, just let me know where you got it from and what the quote is, and then if I decide I can write a good story about it, I'll be sure to do it! Alright, on with the chapter!
Quote #2: GIRL FACTS: When she wants a hug she will just stand there, When a girl bumps into your arm while walking with you she wants you to hold her hand, When a girl is quiet millions of things are running through her mind...
Nina and Fabian walked home from class together, taking the "scenic route" by going through the garden. They walked in what Fabian thought was a mere comfortable silence until he looked at Nina. He could see the little furrow she got between her brows when she was thinking.
"Are you okay, Nina?" he asked her concernedly.
As soon as Nina realized she was going to get caught, she replied, "Of course I am. Why wouldn't I be?"
"You were thinking about something. What was it?"
She hesitated, then lied by saying, "Just girl stuff. You know, nothing you would want to hear. I'm just a girly-girl at heart." She bumped into her arm playfully, the backs of their hands lightly brushing together. Fabian's hand instinctively reached toward hers, and he intertwined their fingers. Neither of them really seemed to notice because they were too preoccupied with each other.
"Nina, you know you are a terrible liar. Now, what is really wrong?"
She sighed. "Fabian...what are we going to do about summer break? Are we really going to spend eight weeks in different countries? I wouldn't be able to do that. The others, sure I'd miss, but you...I just can't! And then what about college? Do you have any idea how hard it would be for me to go to college in England? I'm at this school on a scholarship! My Gran and I could probably afford a community college fifteen minutes from my house, but no way could we afford a transatlantic university! We are going to have to go through at least four years barely seeing each other! Fabes, you know we couldn't-"
Fabian cut her off, pulling her hand to make her stop walking and face him. "Nina, if we have to, I'll spend half of break in America, and then you can stay here with my family for the rest of it. You may not be all that rich, but I am. If it means you and I can stay together, then I'll gladly pay your tuition. We'll work it out, Nina, we always do."
"But, Fabian! I can't let you and your parents throw your money away on something that would be totally unbeneficial for all of you!"
"You being able to stay is definitely beneficial. But if you decide you can't stay here, I'll just come to America for college. I can rent an apartment and go to a community college with you. Somehow, you and I will stay together everyday, we will go to college together, and we will spend the rest of our lives in each other's company. I'll make sure of it."
Nina chuckled, though it wasn't a happy one. "What would your family think of that? You could get into Cambridge or Harvard, and you would just waste all your talent by going to Raymond County Community College (Not real, just made it up). If couldn't let you throw away your life like that."
"Nina, my family will want me to do this. I always spent my time studying science, and I never had many social skills. They thought I'd be out of college by the time I finally got a girlfriend, but then you got here. They could all tell I liked just from that one time I mentioned you on the phone. They are just as unwilling to let you go as I am. If I have to go to America to stay with you, then I will. If I have to pay your tuition, my parents won't give it a second thought. I swear to you, we will be together throughout college no matter what, and then we can either live here or in America and start a family. That's just the way our lives are going to be."
She looked up at him and held her arms out. He impulsively reached out and pulled her into a hug, knowing that was what she wanted. He rocked her gently back and forth for a moment, allowing her to calm down.
She finally looked up at him and smiled. "So, you've been thinking about our lives after college, huh? What are they like?"
He grinned. "Amazing, of course. Big house, great jobs. We get married."
"And kids?"
"Five of them. Three girls and two boys. And all of them are absolutely perfect. Just like you." He kissed her nose.
"Hmm. Sounds wonderful. Now, when exactly do we get married?"
"Well, I propose to you-actually, I won't tell you when, but it's before college, but we don't get married until we are about to graduate. Amber, of course, organized the wedding."
She smiled and kissed him. "But when exactly are you planning on proposing?"
He chuckled. He knew he shouldn't have brought it up. When Nina wants to know something, she didn't typically give up until she got an answer. But this was one thing she wouldn't break him in. He would remain strong and keep it a secret that he was going to propose to her the summer before they went off to college.
"How about this question: Will you say 'yes'?"
"Of course I will. When the time comes for you to ask me, I won't even hesitate. I'll be ready, and then we will start our lives together."
"Sounds good to me." With that, he leaned in once again to kiss the woman he would love for all eternity.
Wow, that was sappy! But I just kind of felt like being cheesy for today, so that's how it ended up! I'll post the next chapter within the next few days. I'm not positive when, exactly, because there is only a 3 hour period where I can use the computer because my brother isn't home, but then I have an after school club meeting tomorrow, then church, and another meeting on Thursday. Then I'm going to my dad's on Friday, but I'll figure it out somewhere along the way and get to the next chapter.
ANYWAY, thank you for reading, please send me some quotes of your own for me to write about, and PLEASE REVIEW!
