Chapter ten - Faith takes us where it wants us to be

I'm currently waiting at the gazebo that was once build by my father for my mom. It was hidden somewhere deep in the forest , near the cliff that overlooked the city. As years pass, this place , this gazebo had been a favourite spot for couples. It is beautiful, really . But the story behind it all was even more beautiful and only I understood it. To other people , it's just another look out point. To me , it's where my father proposed to my mother and where I'm going to propose to Vic, one day. Some may wonder , what makes you so sure that Vic and I are going to be together forever . Sometimes things don't have an explanation to it , it's something that you just know and it feels right.

I'm wearing my best , most expensive suit I own. A long sleeved dress shirt with a grey vest over it , a black blazer with a faded shade of black silk lining and black slacks. I looked at my watch impatiently for the fifth time tonight with a red suede box in my hand .

Roses were scattered all over the floor , fairylights swirled around the pillars, tea lights were placed randomly on the concrete seat , I had people come in this afternoon to decorate this place with string and walls of white roses.  I even hired a band to play us dance music. Dancing, something we should be doing by now.

Jaime was supposed to bring Vic here almost an hour ago. He's not answering my calls or my texts. Half an hour ago , I would have been pissed . But now , I'm starting to get worried . I try to tell myself not to think bad thoughts but it seems the more I try to tell myself that, the more I think about it. I also know that faith haven't really been nice to Vic either and there's the popular saying that goes , 'you can't cheat deathe ' . Now , I'm not saying thay I believe in those mumbo jumbos but what if , and I say if , worst case scenario , something bad really does happen to Vic ? ... and Jaime.

I couldn't just stand here with these thoughts going through my mind . I had to prove them wrong . Just as I was about to reach for my wallet to pay the band so I can rush out of here afterwards  , I have never been so happy to hear Jaime's voice.

" We're hereee " Jaime sang in his usual preppy tone, making me breathe out a sigh of relief.

Jaime's hands were behind the small of Vic's back , guiding to him to me while they were both giggling about something . Which seem to have asured me that they're both getting along . A part of me is happy because eventhough Jaime annoys me someti- , most of the times , he's still my best friend and I wouldn't want him to be on Vic's bad side. However the other part of me wants him to be on Vic's bad side because It nice knowing that I'm the one that ignites the feisty side of him. It's cute see-ing him all jealous amd worked up.

Jaime shifted his hands on to Vic's shoulder , making him stop in his tracks , standing just infront of me .

" Why we stopped Himes ? " Vic question with a tilt of his head.

I mouthed a thank you to Jaime and he nodded in return . He then tip toed out , making sure not to make a sound.

" Jaime ? " Vic called out again , this time with a hint of worry in his voice.

I was tempted to just take the blindfold off but I wanted him to do it himself , so he'll be even more surprised see-ing me here.

" Can I take the blindfold off ? "

" Oh , why isn't he answering me " Vic whispered to himself , getting more worried by the second. He stretched his arm out trying to feel for Jaime and I swiftly dodge from his touch. He turned a hundread and eighty degrees , still trying to feel for Jaime , until finally he gave up and took the blindfold off. He was facing the direction of the forest which was where he came in from and I was at the other direction where the view was.
