Chapter 6: you can't always get what you want

A day left before the proposal night.

Ian's POV:
'This is it, I'll propose to her tomorrow' a thought run through his mind as he stroked Nina's angel-like face lying on his chest 'what if something goes horribly wrong?' he asked himself, pouting at the thought.

Nina yawns, looking up & seeing Ian's pout. 'what's wrong?' she asked him as he looked down to her. 'nothing, babe. I'm just sad...I woke up before you cuz I want you to wake me' he told her as he manages to chuckle at what he just said. 'hmm, ok' Nina planted a kiss on him as she got up.

'where is my baby, heading?' he said, sounding playful as he hugged her from behind, wrapped his arms around her & turned her around 'I guess...back to the bed then' she pushed him down the bed as she trailed kisses on his chest & he played with her hair.

Candice was driving hurriedly to Mike's house. 'I have to find that ring, the proposal is tomorrow & I so won't ruin it, just because I don't have the ring!' she told herself as she parked at the sidewalk.

Candice's POV:
'hmm, seems pretty easy. I'm already here & all I have to do is find that ring & all is back to normal' she smiled happily, she had always been so positive but when she took hold of the door knob, it hit her. 'omg! I totally forgot, that I don't have a key or whatsoever to get in!' she screamed not caring who heard as she was furious.

Ian kissed Nina passionately as their bodies emerged into one, Nina could feel the bulge on his boxers as he was on top of her.

'maybe we should get breakfast, I'm starving' Nina complained as Ian licked her lower lip. 'yes we should but I'll prepare it, wait here' Ian told her as he headed downstairs towards the kitchen.

Nina then called Candice to occupy her time as she waited for her breakfast.

Candice looked around the front door, hoping he just hid the key somewhere when her phone rang. 'ugh, who could be calling? I'm so busy for this right now' she yelled at the phone as she answered 'what do you want?' she said, harshly. 'Candice? Are you ok, you sound...angry.' Nina spoke, worried. 'oh..Nina. Ah yeah I'm fine, just a little busy & all' Candice took deep breaths as she tried to calm herself down. 'oh ok, what made you so busy? We're on break' Nina asked curiously as Candice replied with 'just your big surprise, you know...blah blah blah, ok I gotta go now, bye love you' Candice hung up before Nina could even let out a word.

Nina POV:
'What is with this big surprise? It's driving me crazy already! Everyone's always too busy & Ian won't even tell me a thing about it' she thought as Ian barged in with a tray in his hands & saw her pouty face.

'why so pouty, angel?' Ian asked placing the tray at the bed, wrapping his arms around her. 'its this surprise, I mean what's taking it so long? I called Candice & she said she's busy with it, can you just give me a clue please. please, Ian!' she told him as she tickled him, hoping he'd give in 'no can do, babe. I told you, that surprise is off limits for you, you have to wait' he said as he stroked her arm, up & down. 'plllleeeasssee' Nina begged him with her puppy dog doe eyes. 'just a clue, Ian. Just one'

Ian laughed at how cute she is when she's begging but he knew better 'well, it's very romantic of course..' he told her as he laughed 'well..duh!' Nina elbowed him as what he said didn't even pass as a clue.

'ouch, you asked for a clue & there you go, don't elbow me' he kissed her elbow as he whispered 'just wait, love. Be patient.' Nina then told him 'I've been patient long enough, Ian. I'll give you questions & answer with yes or no, ok?' Ian chuckled & replied with '..what about 'maybe'?' Nina looked at him with a serious face 'yes or no only!' she laughed as he pouted at what she just said. 'then I'm not playing the game then!' he pouted even more. Nina finally gave in & said 'fine, game on'

Candice was just standing there, thinking of an idea of what she needs to do 'maybe I'll just call Ian' she told herself 'no, I don't want him disappointed, I can do this'

Ian fed Nina with eggs & bacon as she started her little questionnaire. 'ok, does it involve me screaming of happiness?' she asked, happily. 'maybe' as he said it, she rolled her eyes.

'do we both benefit from it?' Nina ask him as he shoved a spoonful of bacon bits on her mouth. 'of course' he smiled as Nina swallowed & replied with 'yes, no or maybe only, Ian' he laughed as he drank his coffee, she's just too adorable when she's demanding.

'Ian, this is so getting nowhere' Nina looked at him 'I'm glad you noticed that already' he laughed hard as he fed her the last of the breakfast & looked at the time, 12pm.

'I'm serious' she pouted as he stroke her face & kissed her forehead while he said 'I did told you to wait'

'when will it be, then? at least tell me that' she annoyingly asked him 'tomorrow night, there I said it'

'oh wow, but where?' Nina tried getting more answers as she kissed his hand to distract him. 'uh-uh, I already told you enough' Ian said, pulling her lower lip down using his index finger. 'I know you too well, Nina' he laughed & as Nina tried to say something, Ian wiped her mouth with a tissue & then carried her to the bathroom 'let's bathe'

After an hour, Candice finally thought of an idea. She looked around to see if anyone was looking & smiled when no one is. She looked at the big window at the side of the house & without further ado, she picked up the wood & smashed the window as pieces of glass fall, leaving a smiling Candice.
