Chapter 6
Sophie's POV
The next city we went to was where we sat by the tree and decided to use the ring on find Lorenzo. (AN: I'm crap at remembering city names so I'm just going, of what I remember of the show and putting them in different cities/towns hope this is okay with everyone).
''remember we argued a lot here and I remember you didn't like a story that Clara told us about her and Lorenzo''
Charlie groaned from behind me and I couldn't help but smile as he said ''did you have to remind me I didn't that to remember that''
''but it was so fun when your face went red'' I turned around and looked at him ''much like right now''
We laughed while Charlie buried his head in my hair.
I looked out at the scene and loved it, it was a wonderful place some place that I would write about with this story.
''come on I want to talk you somewhere'' he whispered into my ear
I nodded at him and said to Clara ''we will be right back''
''okay Charlie''
As we walked away I noticed that we weren't heading towards where the car was we were heading across to this small grotto, there was a bunch of trees but a path that I could see through the trees.
''where are we going?''
''You'll see babe''
I just sighed, leaned into him and just enjoyed the feel of being with him.
As we walked I started to hear more bird songs and water, and as we came through the path we came upon a clearing that was breath taking.
There was a large lake that had a small bridge and another small island in the middle with a gazebo that had been made so people could enjoy the scenery more. That's where we currently heading but I was too busy looking around to notice.
There was so many different coloured birds that I didn't know what some of them were, I noticed a family of swans and quickly took a picture of them. Before continuing and noticing the other wild life, from ducks to frogs to fish to small mammals.
It was such a good wonderful place to collect my thoughts and think about everything that I wanted to do left to do, but there was something else that I needed to think about.
My boss had called me yesterday and said that there was a new position that was opening at the small paper that they had here, it would be working on different articles that I got to choose from but there was one on the secretaries of Juliet.
They wanted a full back story and then comparison on how they did it in the past compared to now, it was something that I would love to write about
But there was a problem, I didn't know if I and Charlie would be staying together or if we would stay together for that long. I didn't know if he was thinking about us being together for long or for how long we would stay together.
I had rang them back this morning and said that I would take it but I didn't even, know what was in the future for us and I had to tell them. Claire would be happy I knew that and so would Lorenzo, but as for Charlie would he.
I couldn't help but have doubts there was only so much I could take with being in a relationship, that for as much as I could tell was going strong and sooner or later I could tell that we may take that next step.
But did he want that I didn't know, there was no hint at that and he seemed to be happy now that I was here for year, he didn't know just yet that I was staying for longer and that he would get to see me for as long as he wanted me around.
But like any one that had been in a relationship beforehand couldn't help but compare them to one another. I was doing that now when I knew I shouldn't be couldn't help it.
They were both sweet and it started out the same way for both of them, but I wanted this one to turn out better and I knew one thing for sure, Charlie wasn't like Victor. He paid attention to me and asked me questions.
Victor was still a friend that I talked to every now and again and he was dating someone that was going really well with. I was happy for him and was glad that he had found someone, and that he had moved on.
I wanted to stop comparing them but sometimes you couldn't help it.
I glanced at Charlie then and smiled he looked so calm just staring out at the lake and looked to be deep in thought.
I wonder how he would react to what I have to tell him, but what if he had a bad reaction to it, I wouldn't know what to do…..actually I would move closer to the city and be happy there instead.
Then I would ignore any place that he worked at and then try to move on, but I didn't really want to he was it for me.
I was taken out of my thoughts when he suddenly turned to me and said
''what do you think of this place?''
''I love it so perfect and peaceful, it's amazing''
''yep just the place I wanted to do this''
''do what?''
''ash you to marry me''
''ask me to what''
''I love you and want you in my life forever, I want to wake up every day knowing that you are going to be mine. I want to know that someday we could have kids and raise them together, living together. If you can't find a way to move here then we go and move to New York and be together there. Even though I think living here would be better and I know that you like living close to Gran and Lorenzo.
We could make it work though, but altogether I want to know that we will be together for as long as we can and I want to grow old with you and be with you to grow old together.
So what do you say love will you marry me?''
''….I say….''
What will she say?
I love cliff hangers they are so good.
The next chapter will be soon just trying to find the perfect way to describe the ring and then telling Clara and Lorenzo.
Hope that you all like it and that you review the next chapter will be longer, see you all next time
Please Review and let me know what you think about this chapter!
