"Our Song"
"Make Me Smile"

OK, so I got this idea coming back on a trip. This song started to play, and me being me, I tried to fit it into a fanfic of mine. And this was
the winner! (I will not be continuing this after this chapter ends, or so I have planned.)
Disclaimer: I don't own HSM, Our Song, or Make Me Smile. I have 43
dollars saved up so far to buy HSM though. Donations are accepted and appreciated. BIG SMILE!
Children play in the park, they don't know
I'm alone in the dark, even though
Time and time again I see your face smiling inside
I'm so happy
That you love me
Life is lovely
When you're near me
Tell me you will stay
Make me smile
I played nervously with the ring in my pocket. 4 years of dating her should make me less nervous, right?Wrong. I was nervous as hell. Tonight was the night that I asked Gabriella Montez to marry me. And I couldn't stop shaking.
What if she said no? I wouldn't blame her. I wasn't good enough for her- I've told her that countless times. And each time, she insists it's the other way around.
Anyways. Back to the present. I'm sitting in the park, playing with a diamond ring.
I'm in the dark until I see her. She brightens up my world. I'm so in love with her, I'd be devastated if she said no.
What if she said no? Did I already ask that? I'm so nervous.
I jumped at the cell phone, alerting me that I had a call.It was her.
"Hey baby." I stammer, almost dropping the ring.
"Hey! What are we doing for date night?"
Her voice flowed smoothly over the phone and into my ear.
"Um...meet me in the park around 7:45." I blurted, my nerves mounting.
"OK, I'll see you then! I love you." And with that, the love of my life hung up.
Living life is just a game so they say
All the games we used to play fade away
We may now enjoy the dreams we shared so long ago
"Hey Baby!" She cried, propelling herself into my arms.
"I missed you." I whispered, hugging her close.
"I was only a phone call away." She assured me, hugging me in return.
We entwined our fingers as we walked around the pond by the park.
She glanced over at the children playing on the jungle gym and swing set."I want a lot of kids." She admitted, grinning at me. I smiled at this; it was a good sign.
"So do I." I agreed, swinging our hands gently.
"I want them to look just like their daddy." She whispered, kissing me lightly.
"What does their father look like?" I asked casually, looking straight ahead.
She stopped and thought. Hands on her hips, head tilted, eyes looking skyward; she was adorable.
"He's tall, he's got the best hair; shaggy and brown, and the most amazing eyes, crystal clear blue pools of ice. But they're warm ice. Friendly. But very icy blue." She decided, grinning.
I was dancing inside. Keep cool Bolton. Keep cool.
"Oh really? Have you found any potential fathers yet?"
"I'm crazy about one of them." She murmured, and I took this as my cue.
"Brie...I'm in love with you."
She tilted her head to the side again."I knew that." She stated, glancing quizzically at me.
I nodded, and she looked into my eyes.
"Why are you so nervous? Are you alright?"
"I'm . . .peachy."
"OK then."
An idea was making it's way into my head. "Come with me."
Pulling her along after me, we went into a small church, one we had been in often, every Sunday together.
I went up to the alter, but had her sit down in one of the pews.
"What are you doing?" She looked so confused.
"Just...sit."
"What's going on?"
"Gabriella...Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. And now these three remain; faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love." I finished, still nervous.
She was crying now. That was probably a bad sign. Or not. She looked happy. Sort of.
"What...Troy...are you...?"
"Gabriella, I'm in love with you. I can't live without you. Will you marry me?" I asked, dropping to one knee in front of the alter, holding out the ring.
Squealing, she was on her feet before I had finished, and into my arms right as I finished.
"Yes!" She cried, hugging me tightly.
I slid the ring onto her finger as she kissed me tenderly.
"I love you."
Oh, my darling, got to have you
Feel the magic when I hold you
Cry sweet tears of joy, touch the sky
"I love you too Gabriella."
Now I need you more than ever
No more crying...we're together
Tell me you will stay
Make me smile...
OK, that was 3 pages. Not my best work, but still. I really liked it. The proposal was 1st Corinthians, 13:4-8. I don't own that. But I have it memorized, which has to count for something. Right? Please review and tell me what you thought. The song was "Make Me Smile" by Chicago. If you haven't heard it, look it up. The band is AMAZING! (Amazing, just lime my fabulous and wonderful reviewers!)
