Chapter 13

*TIME SKIP 2 1/2 YEARS LATER*

*OPAL'S POV*

A week after my mothers funeral William headed back to New York with me. I continued work and so did William. Turns out he worked for a company that designed video games!
How he never told me that, I don't know.
I explained everything to a hyper Isabella about moving into an apartment with William. She Quickly found a new room mate who was just as loud and hyper as she was.
It's been two years sense William and I started dating, sure we had fights, but what what couple doesn't? after every argument we would make up and I would find myself falling more and more in love with him.
One day on our two and a half year anniversary William took me out to dinner.
"Make sure you dress nice." he informed me.
He wouldn't tell me where we wee going so I got a little annoyed, although I know he was just trying to be a sweat boyfriend.
At a quarter to six I slip on my black high-low skirt and white three quarter sleeved shirt. pulling my hair out of the bun it had been in all day I attack it with a brush then proceed to straighten it.
Soon I was done and I slip on black wedges. a I walk out of our bedroom I hear a sigh.
"You get prettier every time I see you." William muttered while kissing me.
"Come on. you said we had reservations at six thirty." I say play hitting his arm.
He flashes me a smile and takes my hand.
"Then let us go your royal highness." he said in a mock tone.
"Pulling him forward I kiss him. come on His Royal Highness, were going to be late." I say in a mocking tone. He only smirks and leads me to his truck.
Yup still has the same truck. the one that brought us together. every time I get in I think of how we met.
Minuets later we arrive at a high class restraint. William parks the car and before I could open the door William appears an opens it for me an offered me his hand.
"Why thank you good sir!" I say keeping up the joke from earlier.
We enter the restaurant and I'm blown away. quickly we are taken to a table located in a quieter section of the building.
The food was so good I couldn't even order dessert. Suddenly William takes my hand in his. His eyes staring into mine. I started to feel a little afraid.
"Opal I have something extremely important to tell you."
Slowly nodding my head to show i understand William stands up but makes sure I say seated.
"William what are you doing?" I question.
With a single swift movement William was down on one knee in front of me.
"Opal, I have known you for the past two and a half years of my life. An let me tell you they have been the best year of my life. I have come to know about you and you me. I wish to continue learning about you and stay with you the rest of my life." pulling out a small box from his pocket he opens it. I side is a ring. "Opal will you do the honor of marrying me?" he proposed.
I didn't know what to say. my mind went blank, tears weld up in my eyes and I nodded. then my brain came back to life and I was able to speak.
"Yes! of course! yes!" I exclaimed jumping up.
William slipped the ring onto my finger and stands up. he pulls me in for a kiss and I could here people clapping and cheering. but none of that mattered. the only thing that mattered was the man I front I me. the man I loved.
Paying our bill we had back to our apartment with me still grinning like a fool. the first thing I did was call up Isabella. I think her reaction was better than mine in all honesty.
She started screaming then asking what the ring looked like. I had dent really looked at the ring he just put it on my hand and we kissed. looking down at the ring a smile washed over my face.
It was our birthstone colors than a diamond on top.
It was the prettiest thing I had ever seen. Suddenly I felt two arms snake around my waist and pull me I to a chest. looking up my gaze meet Williams happy one.
"I told my parents." he informed me.
"What did they say?" I began to worry.
"No need to worry." he assures me. "they only told me it was about time he said chuckling. I only smile in response.
