Chapter 23
Up The Tower
So we had the house to ourselves. I wondered downstairs to get a drink, then Harry appeared behind me (dog in tow as she decided she liked him and follows him around more than my dad). And said "Fancy taking me for a tour around Portsmouth, since the only thing I see of this lovely city is The Guildhall and that's it"
"Err…. Ok then. I suppose its easier now cause its quieter"
So we left my dog indoors and left for a "tour" of Pompey, I straight away headed for the seafront for a moonlit drive and to look across at the lights of the Isle of Wight then harry made me pull over and said "drive over towards that tower"
"Oh, Gunwharf? But the tower isn't open now its gone 9 o'clock"
"Oh well…. We'll head there anyway"
So we headed to Gunwharf and The Spinnaker Tower (much to my refusal as it was shut). The Tower was lit up in a purpley blue light tonight and looked beautiful in the clear nights sky.
Next thing I knew I was being walked towards the tower and a member of staff was holding open a door for us, we walked through the gates and straight into the lift "Harry what's going on"
"I just really wanted to come up here and it was such a gorgeous night so I made a few phone calls".
As the lift doors opened on the first observation level I looked out on the view of Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight and Gosport, everything looked so pretty at night. All the lights, I could see where I used to work, where Fratton Park was.
"Harry why did you bring me up here?" I asked inquestitvly
"Why am I not allowed to treat my gorgeous girlfriend to a time up the tower to see the sites of this beautiful city at night?" said Harry who then kissed the back of my neck as we stood on the glass floor. "I've got something I want to show you, but im going to have to blind fold you"
Next thing I knew I was blind folded and being led in a direction I didn't know. Then I heard the lift doors open and felt the lift going upwards. It stopped and I heard the doors open. It was still warm so we must have been on the second level of the tower, if it was the 3rd level it would've been cold as its open to the elements. Then I felt Harry turn me to face a direction then I felt his hands leave my body….. "Harry what's going on?"
"1….2…..3….4" I heard someone say, and some soft music started from a piano and an acoustic guitar joined in then some percussion… I took off my blind-fold…
