Phil grabbed the bags and carried them into the room. He was still a little nervous but his talk with the older lady on the plane had helped to calm him down a little. He smiled over at her. She looked at him with raised eyebrows.
"Alright...what's the deal with you? You've been kind of jumpy and weird. So what's up?" He sighed and walked over to her and sat them down on the end of the bed.
"You know I love you right? More than anything in the world. I have for a really long time now."
"Oh My God, are you breaking up with me?"
"What? No, why would you think I was breaking up with you?" Just then her cell phone rang and she was that it was her Mom.
"Hello? Oh hey Mom. Yeah, we're fine. We're at the hotel. Yeah, I promise mom. Alright. I love you too." She said as she hung up and looked over at Phil again. "What were you saying?"
"As I was saying. You know I love you. More than anything in the world and I have for a long time."
"Yes." She said wondering where he was going with this. "I know that."
"Well, I've given this some thought and I know we're young and we just graduated from high school but…there are certain things that I know. I know that you're my best friend in the world and I'm excited for us to be starting out this new chapter of our lives. I know I love you and that I want what we have to last forever." He said getting down on one knee. "I was hoping that you, Charlotte Cena, would do me the honor of marrying me."
"What?"
"Marry me Charlie. Please?" She sat there for a moment with her hand to her mouth, tears streaming down her face. She smiled and nodded.
"Is that a yes?"
"Yes….I would love to marry you."
He smiled as he slid the ring on her finger. He couldn't have been happier that she agreed to marry him. "Now, we just have to tell our parents and John and Jaycee."
"I think they all will be happy for us." She smiled. "I can't wait to tell Jaycee."
"I would wait until after the vacation." He said to her.
"You're right. I'm sure she and John are busy with other things." Charlie smiled.
"Please don't talk about my sister and your brother having sex. I don't want that image in my head." She laughed. "But uh…..we have some celebrating to do don't we?" he said as he leaned in and kissed her. She smiled and bit her lip as he laid her back on the bed. She couldn't believe that he'd asked her to marry him. She forgot about everything else as they made love. She couldn't have been any happier than she was right now.
Jaycee laid there in John's arms after they had made love again. "That was amazing." She said as they laid there.
"I agree with that." He laughed a little. "You're okay right?"
"Are you kidding? I'm great." She smiled. "This was everything I hoped it would be. I'm glad this was with you."
He smiled and kissed her. "Me too. So, what now?"
"Well, we enjoy this vacation and then we move to Boston."
"You're okay with living with me right?"
She moved to look at him. "Of course I am. I can't wait for us to be in Boston. I'm excited to go to Wellesley and I'm excited to be with you, Charlie and Phil. It will be great."
"Yeah. It will be. And we're all going to be happy."
"Yeah." She smiled and kissed him. "You better not be messy because I will not be picking up after you."
He laughed. "Don't worry. I promise to be neat and not messy and I would never ask you to pick up after me."
"Good." She smiled.
"And to tell you every day how beautiful you are and how much I love you. It's going to be amazing to go to sleep with you at night and wake up with you every morning."
"Wow, who knew John Cena could be so romantic." She smiled as she kissed him.
"You bring it out in me."
"Good to know." She said as she kissed him again. He kissed her back and they started to make love again.
Charlie smiled as she looked at her ring. She still couldn't believe they were getting married. Phil smiled and pulled her closer. "You like it?"
"I love it. It's beautiful." She said as she turned to look at him.
"It's just metal and a piece of glass. You're beautiful." She smiled and leaned in to kiss him.
The next morning, she and Phil headed to the apartment building that wasn't that far from Wellesley. She was excited to begin this step in their life.
"This is the apartment." The realtor said. "It's a two bedroom, one bath. The kitchen has new appliances and you can see it has an open floor plan. With the living room and kitchen within view of each other. The balcony let's you look out at the city. There is a laundry room downstairs."
"The website said you had two apartments in this building." Charlie said.
"Yes, there is one across the hall that is exactly like this one. Did you need two?"
"Well one's for us and the other is for another couple."
"Are you college students?"
"Well me and my friend are going to be students at Wellesley. And my brother is going to be a student at Boston College."
"Alright. Well since you're students, the rent is discounted by three hundred dollars. So, the rent will be 1600. The building requires first and last month rent and a five hundred dollar security deposit. So for each apartment that's 3700 for each apartment."
"Got that right here for both apartments." She said as she handed the realtor the checks.
"All we need you to do now is sign the paperwork."
"Could my fiancé sign for one apartment and I sign for the other? It's sort of a graduation gift to his sister who is my best friend." The realtor smiled.
"Of course. Right this way and I can hand you guys the keys to both places." They followed her into the apartment and quickly signed the rental agreement. She gave them the keys and a list of all utilities they would need to get turned on. Once they had the keys they headed to each apartment. They wanted first pick since they signed everything.
"I like this one." Charlie said walking into the first apartment after they had looked at the second on.
"They're exactly alike." Phil laughed.
"No they're a little different. I mean just picture it...the couch right here. The TV right there. And over by the window...our Christmas tree."
"You're such a girl." He said rolling his eyes.
"What else am I supposed to be?" He walked over and kissed her.
"Nothing. I love you just the way you are." She smiled and kissed him.
"So, do you think Jaycee and John will like it?"
"I think they will. I still can't believe I agreed to live across the hall from Cena." Phil said. "I know he's with my sister now but it will take some time to get use to it."
"Yeah but they love each other." Charlie smiled.
"Yes they do." He pulled her to him. "Just like I love you."
"When are they supposed to be here anyway?"
"A few days I think. Which gives us time to christen the apartment."
"When are they supposed to be here anyway?"
"A few days I think. Which gives us time to christen the apartment." She smiled as he leaned in to kiss her. They were soon making love in the apartment. Making the place their own. She couldn't be happier that they were starting their life together.
