YOU WANT ME?!? ~ Ralph Macchio

Packing - Chapter 26

"Ughhhh! I'm so tired." I practically yelled to Ralph, as we woke up in the morning to get are things packed. I didn't remember if we asked my brother about laiklyn going to LA with us so I asked him today.
"Zai!"

"What?!?" He yelled back at.

"Can we take laiklyn to LA with us? Just for a week and then we'll bring her back and plus it's going to be my month to take her anyways so."

"Ughh, I guess Rae, but bring her back in the morning, got it? And you, lover boy, you take care of my little girl and if something happens to her, it's your neck on the line."

"What if it's my fault?" I asked my brother.

"I can't do nothing to you besides smack you, you know dad would pound me if I did something to you, plus I know I can get away with him."

"Right. But I'll go and kill you if you hurt him."

"Chill I won't your little boyfriend here."

"Whatever and we leave tomorrow so spend the day with laiklyn. And that goes for everyone!" I said while leaving.

Me and Ralph started to pack for just laiklyn, we had all our clothes at home in our house so we don't need to pack a lot of things. Plus we'll be back here in a week, it's not that long and I hope my brother is prepared for how spoiled laiklyn is going to be when she comes back here.

"You going to miss them?" Ralph asked.

"Yeah, Of course I am. They're my family."

"Even though you get push to the side?"

"Yes, they're the only ones I got."

"You got me. And my family."

"But they aren't mine. They're yours."

"They'll be your family one we get married."

"If we get married."

"We'll be married."

"Whatever you say love. I'll back you up a 100%, forever and always."

"Always doubting, but I still love you."

After we were done packing we had the whole day to ourselves. No laiklyn. No family. No friends. No interviews. No events. Nothing. All alone.

"So what ya wanna do?" Ralph asked.

"I wanna sleep." I said rolling over onto the bed.

"Come on."

"No."

"Why? We can go on a date together. We haven't been on one since like, we met." He does have a point we literally went on a date when we met. And haven't been on one since we've been dating.

"Fine. Where would we go?"

"Park? Restaurant?"

"No. We can go to the carnival in town!" I got super excited when I remembered the carnival came. I was hoping he would say yes.

"Sure let's go. But what if people recognize us?"

"Then we'll just tell them that we're out together to spend time together and not for publicity."

"Alright, well get dressed." I lifted my hands so he can pull me up. He saw me and pulled me up to get dressed.
Once I was done dressing we washed up and went to go eat at Denny's. We got some breakfast and went to the mall.
We shopped around a little and bought each other things. We also went to a flee market. We also bought each other things there.
But we got stopped everywhere we went. A lot of people wanted pictures and autographs of us. We politely rejected everyone telling them we were out on a date, not for publicity. Mostly everyone said it was fine but every now and then you get people telling you it's your job to make people happy and you can't quit it for anything. That we have to keep this up and that it isn't something that can end so quickly.
Me and Ralph ignored them, they didn't know how it felt not to have privacy. Everyone was always following us. Even people took pictures of us without our permission. They weren't even paparazzi.

Me and Ralph went to get some food from the flee market. I got a lemon with a salt rock in it, Ralph got a dillypickle.
Of course knowing me, I ate some of Ralph's snow cone.

"Must you eat my food?" He asked me.

"Of course, happy wife, happy life. If you want a future you gotta let me eat some. And it's really good."

"Ohhhh, so you want to be my wife?" He said with a smirk on him.

"Way to ruin the moment, babe."

"My fault, but I mean I wouldn't mindddd."

"Me being your wife? You don't even know half of it. Maybe even torture."

"Anything for you my love."

"Cute." I said sarcastically.

We ended up leaving and going to the carnival. Ralph wanted to go on the Farris wheel, I personal don't like heights, but sometimes you gotta take one for the team. I do get on sometimes but that's when I think I won't be scared for it and then bingo I get scared being up really high.
I really thought I wouldn't be scared.

I was wrong clearly.

"You okay, BearBear?" Ralph asked me.

"Yeah. Totally." I said while gripping onto him.

"We're okay."

"Easier said then done." I responded.

"Just don't look down."

"That's great advise."

"At least you got me."

"Yeah. At least I got you." I stared into Ralph's eyes.

"You good? You're just staring at me."

"I just love your eyes, that's all."

"I love yours too. They're very pretty." Me and Ralph both started to lean in until our lips finally touched.
"I love you."

"I love you too." I laid my head back onto his chest.

Ralph held my hand throughout the whole ride. He kept telling me how much he loved me. I told him similar things too. Me and him laughed. Joked. Everything. We just had a great time. It's what we needed once in a while.
I kept feeling like I was annoying Ralph or he was annoying me. It made me feel like we weren't in love.

"You okay?"

"Yeah. I just thought we were losing our spark together."

"Why would you think that?"

"It felt like I was annoying you. We weren't telling each other I love you as often and we wouldn't have deep conversation with each other."

"I love you. And you're just rubbing off of me that's all. You're humor and sarcasm is really getting to me."

"Thank the lord. At least you aren't nearly as close as my humor. It would be very bad. I think we would break up I'm not gonna lie."

"Never."

"Love you."

"Love you too."
