Chapter 30

After she had showered and changed the two of them headed out to go to Jewelry stores with the special credit card that Stephanie had given them to buy her dream ring. She had said it would be her present to buy not only Jordan's engagement ring but the wedding rings as well. So they would be looking at different rings all night long if it took them till the stores closed then they would shop and just say they didn't find anything. However it wasn't as hard as Jordan thought it was going to be. Almost immediately Jordan found her dream ring. She felt her heart beat speed up and her eyes immediately went big at the site of the ring sitting there in the velvet box. Jordan could feel Jeff looking at her and the smile that appeared on his face.

"Can we see that one?" He asked the woman who had come to help them. He knew that he was pushing it and that Jordan was going to be angry with him but he knew that this was the one she was in love with.

"Sure you can." The saleslady opened the case and pulled the ring out and then she pulled it out of the box and handed it over.

Jordan held her dream ring in her hand and didn't know what to say or how to react. As she held the ring she could suddenly imagine her dream wedding and marrying Jeff. She felt tears fill her eyes because after today she wasn't sure he still wanted to marry her. She slipped the ring on her ring finger and it fit perfectly almost like this ring was supposed to be hers. She looked up at Jeff who was already picking out wedding bands to go with the ring. She started to take it off when the saleslady told her not to because Jeff had already said they were buying it and she was wearing it out. She smiled as she walked over to where he was looking at wedding bands and saw the cutest matching bands that were in platinum. She looked at Jeff and saw the same ones had caught his eyes, he gave a nod at them and the lady pulled them out for the two of them to try on and once again they fit the two of them perfectly. They pulled them off and Jeff told Jordan to just wait for him by the door.

Jeff knew he owed her an apology and so he thought the best way to do that was jewelry. He looked around and found the perfect set. It was a bracelet, necklace and earrings set that matched her engagement ring perfectly. He added it to the purchase and paid for everything. He took the bag and met Jordan by the door and when they walked out he truly felt like he was engaged to Jordan as she stared at her new engagement ring.

"Do you feel engaged now?" Jeff asked her softly as they decided to go and get some dinner before heading back to the hotel.

"I have an idea, instead of going out why don't we order room service?" Jordan asked instead of answering his question.

"All right but you still have to answer my question." Jeff agreed as they headed towards the rented car.

"I feel like I can't wait till I marry you." Jordan admitted softly.

"Now you can't wait to get married?" Jeff asked in amazement.

"I can wait till we plan my dream wedding but it's going to be hard. You've been here before and you knew I would love that ring because you took me straight to it, how?" Jordan asked as she crossed her arms before getting in the car and waiting for him to get in the drivers side.

Jeff climbed in the car and sighed as he started it before he turned and looked at her in the eyes. "Yes I have been here before and I saw that ring and realized it was so you and I had them put it on hold but keep it in the box so you could see it. They were holding it for you, I was going to buy it on my own eventually when I was sure you would say yes but this whole thing has forced us into it so I am glad we were in the city where the ring was at the time we had to buy a ring.

"I am to. Thank you Jeff, I really mean it." Jordan said softly with a smile. She leaned over and gave him a kiss on the cheek. He turned and then kissed her back this time on the lips. The two kissed for a few minutes before Jordan pulled away and motioned for Jeff to leave so they could get back to the hotel.

Back at the hotel Jeff handed over the bag that held their wedding bands and a little something special. When Jordan just set it aside thinking it was only the bands Jeff corrected her.

"Look inside it." Jeff said simply.

"Why? It's just the bands." Jordan said with a confused look.

"No there is something in there to say I am so sorry for being such a jerk to you." Jeff said with a smile.

Jordan smiled unsure of what he had done and opened the bag. She pulled out the bigger box and opened it. When she saw the bracelet, necklace and earring set that matched her engagement ring and she couldn't believe it. She felt the tears enter her eyes as her hand went to cover her mouth. She quickly shut the box and ran over to where he was standing and kissed him hard on the lips. She knew she owed him a big apology for being such a horrible person when it came to their engagement. She loved him more than she ever realized she could love a person and that was something that surprised her more than the fact that she was getting married far sooner than she ever imagined that she would. It was a surprise but a good one, unless the rest of her family felt the same way that Shawn did and she had a feeling he was going to lie to them about Jeff to make them hate him and that was something she wouldn't stand for because she knew him and she loved him and she planned to marry him no matter what her family thought.
