A Curse Called Love

Chapter 11

Okay.. I promised I would do this... So if a couple people vote on this chapter, or like it.. Or something(which will be described below).. I'll continue! Now, time for more Ben and Nat.

Nat P.O.V

We walked outside, and headed towards the park. We didn't say anything; just held hands and enjoyed the comfortable silence. I suddenly thought, if he asked me out again.. What do I say?? Umm.. I don't want to think about that right now.. So, I'll enjoy this moment and hope that doesn't come up.

Eventually, we got to the park, and we sat down on the swings. Well, I did. He stood behind me, and pushed. I grinned. Of course. I have never been able to swing by myself. So, everytime we came to the park, he pushed me.

This went on for a couple of minutes, then he stopped me. I stared at him, puzzled. What was he going to do?? He isn't going to.. Is he?? No, no! I didn't have time to prepare myself for this. Oh shit, shi-

He interupted my inner monologue, "Nat.. I know this is probably stupid to say but.. I honestly meant every word I said at your house.. And I'm extremely sorry about it all. It's all my fault. Can you somehow forgive me, this idiot, that has hurt you?"

I stood up, and looked at him. Well, looked up. He's 6'2".. 11 inches taller than me. Yeah, I'm 5'3", pretty short. I know 6th graders taller than me.

I stood on my tippy-toes, and stared into his golden eyes, and he stared into my green blue eyes. I said, "Ben, I heard every word you said in the house, and right now. I understand you're sorry. This wasn't your fault, I know that. I completely understand that it was the bitch's fault. Not yours. I forgive you, 100%."

I saw his face light up at my words, like a kid on Christmas. Ben said, "Thank you, Nat. Thank you. You honestly don't know how much that means to me."

He, then, sat down on the swings. He put me on his lap. Okay.. Now I'm kind of scared.

He took both of my hands, and said, "Natasha Renee Goldwin.. I know I'm an idiot for even thiniing about asking you this.. But, Will you do me the honor of being my girlfriend??"

Oh crap, what am I supposed to say?? I looked at him, and knew my answer. It wasn't something that had pros and cons, or a right answer. It was what I wanted.

I wrapped my arms around his neck," Of course I will!" He looked so happy, I thought he would burst. He put his hand in his pocket, and out came a tiny jewelry box. "For you," He said. I smiled, how adorable was he??? I opened the box, and gasped. Inside, there was a gorgeous pair of earrings. There were 3 dangly green- blue stones, and around them was a tiny line of silver. Holy crap, they're gorgeous!!!

I closed the box, and put it in my hoodie pocket. "Thank you," I sincerely said.

"No probelm. I saw them at the store, and they're pretty close to the color of your eyes. Except, your eyes shine way more," He said. Dammit, I could never be mad at him, if he was THIS adorable.

I wrapped my arms back around his neck, and put my head on his shoulder. He put his hand on my back, and just kept it there. We stayed like that, for a very long time. And then, my eyes slowly closed, and I went into a deep slumber.

I woke up in my bedroom.. Wait, what?? I slowly remembered what happened.. Ben came to my house, we made up, and now I had a boyfriend.. Ohh, I must of fell asleep at the park.. But, How did I end up here?? I looked at the clock, 10:25. Time to get up. Besides my clock was a tiny note. I picked it up, and read it.

Nat,

You fell asleep at the park last night. So I carried you home, and into bed. Hope you sleep good. Call me if you want to hang out.
