"This is it" I thought taking a deep breath, I felt Chelsea squeeze my hand. I looked over and she was smiling. I felt my heart flip it seemed. I got it bad, I smiled to myself as we walked up and Eddie opened the door to the Morrison Planetarium,which was currently closed to the public in order to remodel it and the rest of the museum at the California Academy of Sciences. Lucky for me , our boy's uncle had very good connections. It was almost totally dark inside except for the blanket of stars in the "sky". I walked my love over to the replica of the log we'd sat on together to gaze upon the real night sky. We stopped and I reached behind her , my hands shaking, to undo the blindfold. I smiled again seeing her eyes still closed tight. "Baby?" My voice cracked a little.
"Yeh?"
I held her hands in mine,"you can open you eyes."
She opened her eyes and blinked a little adjusting," Oh Rae,"
I sat down on the 'log', and still holding her hands looked up at her as she joined me."you ok baby?"
"yeh, I ...Oh ...Rae...Raven... You did... I mean you had this......for me?" I saw the tears form in her eyes and I reached up and brushed a strand of hair from her face.
"There's nothing I wouldn't do for you ," I felt my own eyes begin to burn , tearing up.
Then right on cue, music began to fill the air. The next track on the cd planned for this,
We both looked around, ok I watched HER look around, it was almost exactly like that night we fell in love, right down to the skunk ( not a real one but a close facsimile)
Before I knew it, SHe had taken my face into both of her hands, nearly pulling me off the log, kissing me so deeply, but softly , just caught me off guard is all. Soon though we were in a full on embrace, sharing another heatwave of a kiss.
Breaking the kiss but not the embrace,cheek pressed into mine, "you know"
We both started ," no you first, no you," We laughed coming out of the embrace just a little,still holding onto each other. " you know that was the night I KNEW I was in love with you ." We said again at the same time. She started laughing , and I couldn't help myself.
"Why did we wait SO long Chelsea? "
" I dunno Rae, we were scared, but we have each other and we're getting married," Her whole face just lights up ,she is the picture of beautiful.
"Right," I smile "umm ya know those stones we picked up when I rescued you," "
"Yes my knight•••ess•••er•••••knightette••um lady in shining armor" she laughs." What about them."
Before I answer I kiss her lips. "You'll see"
"oohhh more surprises?"
"Baby the surprises have just begun." I smiled
"
music comes on again.
There's something that I want to say
But words sometimes get in the way
"Rae?"
"hmm?"
"Is that Eddie?"
"Is what Eddie?"
"Singing"
A light pops on and Eddie standing in a tuxedo Singing "You are my Lady
I just want to show
My feelings for you
There's nothing that I'd rather do
Than spend ev'ry moment with you
I guess you should know
I love you so
yup," I smiled standing up ," dance with me?" I extend my hand to her.
"I'd be honored," she took my hand and stood,wrapping our arms around one another we began to sway to the music, Eddie sounded so amazing.
You are my lady
You're ev'rything I need and more
You are my lady
You're all I'm living for
Staring into each others eyes again, just as intensely as in the car, well almost, I start to softly sing along
There's no way that I can resist
Your precious kiss
Girl, you've got me
So hypnotized
Just say that you'll stay with me (you'll stay)
'Cause our love was meant to be
I promise to love you
More each day
Tears began falling down both our cheeks,so close now not even light could pass between us, Chelsea started to softly sing too.
You are my lady (my love)
You're ev'rything I need and more (oh, oh, oh)
You are my lady
You're all I'm living for
You are my lady
You're ev'rything I need and more
You are my lady
You're all I'm living for
We were both singing with Eddie but once again, everything faded away, except for me and the woman I love
I love your shine
(Shine, shine, shine)
Let's make it last
Until the end of time
You are my lady (my love)
You're ev'rything I need and more (oh, oh, oh)
You are my lady
You're all I'm living for
You are my lady (my love)
You're ev'rything I need and more (oh, oh, oh)
You are my lady
You're all I'm living for
You're all I'm Living.....for
Our lips pressed together again so softly and gently into a sweet beautiful kiss.
