Til The Sun Comes UP

Chapter 38~ Another Chance

Love's POV

Temor and I are walking into the restaurant. He is carrying Tyler; they both look so handsome. As Temor walks us to a private room, I take in the romantic vibe of the restaurant.

I was looking down, fixing the baby's shoe, when he opened the door. I almost screamed when I walked into the room. Because in one glance, I saw my parents, my godparents, Camila, Temor parents, and grandparents sitting at this long table. I turned to look at the other end of the table and see Camila's parents, the twins, and Damien. Standing completely still, I am unsure if I was even breathing, waiting for my brain to process what I was looking at.

Temor walks me to the head of the table so I can sit down; his mother takes Tyler.

"Are you surprised, baby?" he asked.

"Yes...very" that is all I can say because my mouth is dry. Temor is still standing, and he gets everyone's attention.

"Good evening. I am so glad everyone is here. Thank you for coming. I know we are all here to enjoy some good food but do y'all mind if we wait for a few minutes before I have them serve us?"

He looks around the table, and everyone responds, they don't mind.

Still standing, he moves my chair, so he is standing in front of me. As he starts talking, I have an overwhelming urge to cry.

He feels my nervousness, lifting my chin so that I am looking up into his eyes. I feel a sense of calmness. I'm solely focused on my man, and he begins to speak directly from his heart to mine.

"Love my Sweetheart, from the moment I saw you, I have wanted to take care of you, keep you safe, and make sure you never cried another tear. Our chemistry and connection are undeniable. Unfortunately, I didn't see you coming, baby, and I wasn't prepared. I wasn't prepared, and we lost time; I caused you to cry the very tears that I wanted to protect you from, and being the woman that you are and the one I know I don't deserve, you gave us another chance. I made you a promise, and now I want to make you my wife." Temor is now on one knee in front of me, holding my hands

" Valeria Minah Amor, will you take another chance and become my wife? Will you Marry Me?"

I gazed into his eyes and could only see sincerity. I glanced over at my Dad and then ask Temor.

"Did you ask my Dad?".. everyone laughed, and he said, "yes, I got his blessing," he responded, still smiling, waiting for my answer.

Temor's POV

The room is now hushed. Tyler isn't even making noise.

As Love looks at me, I can tell she is looking for confirmation that I mean what I say, then I hear her voice...

"Yes"

Taking her hand, I slid on a three-carat solitaire engagement ring that I purchased for her months ago when we weren't even speaking. She is looking at it, and she tells me how beautiful the ring is and that I have great taste. I give her a kiss and say, "Thank you, Mi Amor, I love you."

I stood up and said, "Now let's eat." For the rest of the night, we ate great food and enjoyed our friends and family. I was glad the last couple of weeks of keeping secrets as I put this together was over. Looking at my Sweetheart, I know she is happy. Her smile Is worth all the anxiety and stress involved to make this day happen.
