Your Blessing?
Chapter 3
Hi, everyone, I'm back! I'm soooooo sorry for the long wait. I meant to upload this chapter earlier, but I've been sick with the stomach-flu and my mom wouldn't let me anywhere near my laptop. Recap! Jack just asked Sally to marry him and she, of course, said yes! Now Sally going to tell Dr. Finklestein! Let's do this!
Jack led Sally up the pavement walk-way of Finklestein Manor. Once to the door, he kissed her neck, making her giggle. "I'll call a town meeting tomorrow and we'll announce our engagement to the whole town. But of course, if it's alright with you, my little bat?"
Sally's heart melted, she loved Jack's little pet-names for her. "Sounds wonderful, sweetheart. But before you go, can I ask you something?"
Jack smirked, "You just did."
Sally giggled, pushing at his chest playfully, "No, really."
Jack chuckled, "Yes, love, what is it?"
Sally blushed and looked to the ground, "Will you kiss me?"
Jack didn't need to say anything as his brought one arm around Sally's waist, raking another through her ponytail, closed his eyes and tenderly kissed her. Sally's eyelids fluttered shut as she accepted Jack's kiss, raising her arms around his neck and stroking his spine.
As much as he hated to, Jack pulled away slowly from their kiss. "Sweet dreams, my angel. I'll see you in the morning."
Sally blushed, "Goodnight, Pumpkin King. My dreams are sure to be sweet, because I'll see you in them."
Although Jack was a skeleton, he could still blush. Sally giggled as his face turned a light red color (It's a Disney movie, anything and everything can and will happen.), and then kissed him again. "I love you, Jack."
He smiled gently and kissed her back, "I love you, too, Sally." Then he turned and walked away. When he got to the front gates, he turned around to gaze at Sally one more time.
Sally blew him a kiss and Jack acted like he caught the kiss and placed his hand over where his heart would be. Then he made his way back to his manor.
Sally giggled as she opened the front door and stepped inside, only to collapse with lovesickness. She sighed and hugged herself blissfully, not believing she was finally marrying Jack.
"Did you have fun, Sally?" the voice startled Sally at first, and then relaxed when she realized the voice belong to Dr. Finklestein.
Sally smiled and got to her feet, holding her hands behind her back, "Yes doctor, I had a wonderful time."
The doctor already knew about Jack's plans to propose, so he tried his best to play dumb when he saw something shiny on Sally's left hand. "What do you have there, my dear?"
Sally felt her face glow red as she held out her left hand to the doctor, "Jack asked me to marry him and I said yes." she felt shivers of delight go up her back as the words left her mouth.
The doctor smiled and wheeled over to Sally and took her hands in his, "Sally, that's wonderful. I'm happy you've found someone that makes you happy, like I have with Jewel." He stopped himself before he started rambling, "So, have you decided when the wedding will be?"
"No, we haven't, but Jack is going to call a town meeting and we'll decide then, I guess."
He patted Sally's hand, "Then I should let you get your rest. Goodnight, darling."
"Goodnight, doctor, I'll see you in the morning." With that, she went up the spiral ramp and closed her bedroom door behind her. After she left, the doctor sighed happily to himself and went back to bed where Jewel slept soundly.
I'm sorry once again for the not very exciting chapter, but I've been sick and I still am sick. I promise the soon-to-come chapters will be grand!
