THIS CHAPTER IS TO MAKE UP FOR ALL THE DRAMA CHAPTERS.

I guess I did want someone to make the choice for me, didn't I? it still is frustrating, I finally had made my decision. Oh well.

I was waiting for Narvel to come home. We we're going on a date tonight to a fancy restaurant. I am very excited.

I got dressed up in a dark blue, v neck, blouse, that showed quite a lot of cleaveage, black dress pants, and black high heels. I was finishing up when I heard Narvel come into the house.

I walked downstairs to see Narvel waiting for me at the bottom step with a bouquet of daisies, they were very beautiful. He was wearing a nice blue tux, and a black tie. I walked up to him and gave him a kiss.

"These are very beautiful." I told him as he handed me the flowers, and I smelled them.

"Not as beautiful as you." he smiled at me. I blushed and walked away to put the flowers in a vase.

We had reservations for a very fancy, expensive restaurant in town. It's a hard place to get reservations at, but fortunately, the owners really like us.

We pulled up to a parking spot, and Narvel opened my door for me, and we held hands as we walked into the restaurant, which was quite busy as usual.

We sat down at a booth, and ordered our drinks while we looked over the menu.

I noticed Narvel was more staring at me then at the menu. I looked up and made eye contact with him, he had a huge smile on his face.

"What?" I asked.

"You're just so beautiful." I blushed, again. This man always knew how to make me feel great.

"Thank you, you are quite handsome yourself." I said as I gave him a flirtatious smile.

We ordered our food and started talking again.

"Shelby called me today." I said to Narvel.

"What did he say?"

"He has another race coming up, and he really wants us to go. I told him we would be there. He also has a new girlfriend." I said that last part a little quietly. My son is twenty-eight years old, but he is still my baby boy. I feel like he grew up way too fast.

"Oh really?" I nodded. "Who is she?"

"He said she is a friend he used to know from school, they started talking again recently. He says he really likes her."

"I am happy for him, he is a good kid."

I smiled at him and grabbed his hand. "We did pretty good raising him.

He squeezed my hand and smiled back. "Yes, we did."

"Mom is wanting to come up for a visit." Narvel said.

"Great! I miss her, she hasn't been up here in a long time."

"I love how you two get along so well."

"She's a great woman. How can you not?"

He laughed. "Yeah, you're right. I will call her tomorrow and tell her she can come this weekend if she wants."

"Can't wait." I smiled a big smile at him.

Our food arrived and we ate in almost complete silence, but we were comfortable with each other.

After having been together for so long, we don't have to try with one another, we are comfortable, even after all that happened.

We finished eating, and the waiter took our plates away. I was stuffed, but It was so good. The waiter came back a minute later with some desert. It was cheesecake, and it looked so good, but I wasn't sure if I had room for it.

"Ooh, that looks so good." I say as he put it in front of me, he also gave Narvel a slice.

"Very good, but I'm full." Narvel said.

"Same, but who can turn down cheesecake." I say as I took a big bite of it.

Narvel laughed at me. "There's always room for cheese cake."

I made a 'mmhmm' noise as I was chewing a mouthful of cake.

I finished the cake up in a hurry, it was the best cheesecake I have ever had. Narvel was only halfway done with his.

I wiped my mouth, and noticed Narvel stopped eating and was staring at me, again.

"Why do you keep staring at me?" I asked him.

He set his fork down and started to stand. "I was going to wait to do this, but I can't wait any longer." he came closer to me and got down on one knee and pulled out a ring. Oh my God. "Reba, I have made mistakes, and I have to live with those. I am an extremely lucky man to have you back in my life, and I love you more then you can ever know. Will you do me the honor, and be my wife again?"

I started to cry, I was so emotional.

I started to nod my head. "Yes, yes I will." he stood up and placed the ring on my finger and we kissed as everyone around us clapped and cheered.
