John was shooting the movie in Canada. Directly from the airport I headed straight to the movie set. I spent the next 5 hours in John's trailer or sat in the directors area watching him film his scenes. It was great watching him. He was a real natural. John actually seems natural at everything he does. He would probably disagree though. It was time for him to film his last scene of the day. It was the scene between John and his movie wife. I could tell John was nervous about me being there but I would eventually see them kiss when the movie came out so he would just have to deal with me watching now. I could tell by the way he kissed his co-star he wasn't into it. Even though she was gorgeous. Her husband was on the set also with their 4 year old daughter.
"That's a wrap on John Cena for today." The director said. Everyone gave John hi-fives and told him what a good job he did as we left the set.
"Wow, I am engaged to a big time movie star." I said giving John a hug.
"Big time movie star, I doubt that." John said nuzzling my ear. "Where's Blue?"
"Blue is with auntie Linda. I wanted all my attention on you. So out with it, what's the big surprise?"
"Patience patience. In time you will know but first lets head back to the hotel and freshen up and change."
**Forty minutes Later**
John got dressed in the living room of the hotel room so I could reveal my outfit all at once. Before stepping out I put on a little more mascara and applied some tinted lip gloss that he said made my lips look good enough to eat. I dabbed a little peach scented oil on and was finally ready. I stepped out and just stared. John was standing with his back to me in his midnight blue suit straightening his tie. His hair was the way I liked, a little longer than the military buzz cut. Looking at him made me really want to just stay in. I cleared my throat so he would take notice that I was standing behind him.
"Wow" I said
"Wow yourself." He said smiling
The dress I wore I had to admit was beautiful. I called this my get-him dress. It was a silk plum colored cocktail dress with thin crystal straps. The dress reached my mid thigh. I was showing just enough cleavage to where it looked classy. I decided to wear heels that made me about an inch taller than John and made my legs look even longer than they normally do. Even though my skin is already tan I put on a gold tinted moisturizer to give my skin a slight gold shimmer. I stood there to let John take me all in. I truly felt sexy and the way he was looking at me was really boosting my confidence.
"You look gorgeous" John said closing the distance between the two of us.
"Oh no. Don't come any closer or we'll never get out of here." I said stopping him by extending my arm so he couldn't get too close.
I knew exactly what that look on his face meant. As hard as it was I had to resist it. John and I headed downstairs on the elevator. Before the doors of the elevator opened John took his tie off and blindfolded me with it. He took my hand in his. I held onto his strong arms tightly, while he took me to his surprise.
"Are you ready?"
"Yes." I said taking a deep breath bracing myself for whatever was about to happen.
Once the tie came off it took me a second for my vision to come back into focus. When it did I was stunned. John had the garden part of the hotel restaurant completely rented out for just the two of us. In the center of the room was a table for the two of us surrounded by my favorite flowers, tulips in the shape of a heart. There was also candles that provided the only light in the restaurant. It was the most romantic thing I had ever seen and ever had done for me. The further I walked the sweeter the tulips smelled. When I turned around to thank John I saw him down on one knee.
"Babe what are you doing?" I said trying to hold back the tears.
"Proposing to you the right way. The way you deserve."
"Anyway you propose is the right way. All that matters is that it is you."
John took my hand in his and looked me straight in my eyes.
"You have become the most important person in my life. You are the first thing I think about in the morning and the last before I go to bed. When I'm not around you I feel like part of me is missing. I love you. Athena Janet Reed, will you do me the absolute honor of saying yes again to becoming my wife?" John said pulling out a 2.5 carat diamond ring with a platinum band.
"John...yes, yes. A thousand times yes." I said dropping down to my knees to kiss him. He placed the ring on my hand and it sparkled beautifully in the light of the candles.
"I wanted to get you something much bigger but Linda advised against it."
The ring was exactly what I would want. It's simple and elegant, not overdone the way I like it.
"Wow it's perfect. You have great taste." I said with tears coming down my face.
"You can thank Linda for that. She helped me pick it out. I wanted it to be perfect."
I had my engagement ring now. I never felt I was missing anything without it but now I felt like it's always been on my finger.
"John, thank you so much for making this a moment I will never forget."
I hugged John as tightly as I could, never wanting to let go. After having a delicious meal and sharing a dance, we decided to turn in early because of John's call time on the movie set in the morning.
"I just want to thank the restaurant manager and staff for helping me to make this evening so special."
"Okay, I need to head back to the room and take off these shoes they're killing me. They are a little tight." I said.
I didn't want to tell him the real reason my feet were sore was because he stepped on them a few times during our slow dance.
"Alright, I'll be up in a few and rub your feet."
"Could you get any better." I said heading to the elevator taking a couple of tulips on the way.
I couldn't wait to text Linda and thank her for her help. Mostly I was curious about how she kept her mouth closed. Maybe that's why she was avoiding me all last week.
As I got off the elevator on the 20th floor I began to have a strange feeling. Something just wasn't right. I looked at the screen above the elevator doors to see if the other elevator John would be on was on it's way but it wasn't. I cautiously walked down the long hallway, which for some reason now it seemed extremely scary.
"I should've just waited for John. Damn shoes." I mumbled to myself.
The closer I got to our room the more anxious I got. Once I got in front of our door, I saw that the door was slightly open. In side I could hear someone rummaging around. I heard the Bing of the elevator door opening up and ran towards it. Into John's open arms.
"Athena, baby what's wrong?" John said holding me at arms length to see if I had any injuries.
"There's someone in our room." I struggled to say.
"Stay here. Let me go check."
John kissed me on the forehead and headed down the hallway. It was the longest walk of my life.
