Michael
“I can’t believe I start school tomorrow…” Dani began. The band and I wouldn’t be returning to school, we were going to start working on our debut album, and doing a few local shows here and there but we’ve been meeting with publicists and stuff and it’s looking good for us. I intertwined our fingers and looked at her beautiful eyes.
“What a year.”
She smiled. “What a year.”
I reached into my drawer and grabbed the pack of cigarettes. I lit it and tried to blow rings at the celiling, and then she took it and tried to do the same
“I still can’t do it.” I laughed.
“I can do it better than you.”
“No you can’t” I laughed trying again.
“Yes look.” And she successfully made a ring.
“HEY!”
She laughed. I put it out and started to kiss her neck.
“I love you.” She said with her toxic lined breath.
“I probably love you more.” I said into her neck.
She laughed. “Same way you could make a better ring
“I missed you.” I admitted.
“I know, I missed you too.”
“Do you still want to marry me, Dani?”
She swallowed hard. “More than I’ve wanted anything.”
I sat up and looked down at her.
“Danielle,” I paused to pull out the ring we bought while we were in LA, “Will you marry me?”
She covered her mouth and nodded, and I slid the beautiful diamond onto her finger.
“I know that we’re too young right now, I mean hell, we’re not even 18 yet, but take this ring as a primise that I am yours whenever you, me and both of us decide that we are ready for this. After the music career cools off, or before it blows up. This could be 10 years, this could be as soon as you finish High school, just know that I will wait as long as it takes for you because I love you Dani, and I never told you this before, but I’ve loved you forever. I’ve had a crush on you since grade 7 when you and Andrew had your first kiss. Andrew and I were best friends and that’s why we’re not. Because I loved you, but he got the balls to say it first and now I’m with you, the girl I love, and I promise to always love you.”
She looked down at her finger. “Remember when you pushed me and dropped fries on my dress.” I looked down and laughed.
“What a great way to meet, that’s a story we will tell our children one day.”
She laughed and so did I.
“Hopefully one day.” I said to myself.
“Hey Dani?” I said lying back down next to her.
“Mhmm?”
“Thank you.”
“For what?” she asked looking into my eyes.
I took a deep breath and wrapped the hair in her face around her ears.
“For saving me.”
