Gentle Summer Breeze

Chapter Six

Time passed. Days. Weeks. Jeremiah and I are still together. I don't want him to be anywhere but near me. I want to be his and I want him to be mine...

It was a sunny afternoon. Catherine was sitting on the bench at Central Park, waiting... Birds flew high above and lovers danced across the way with love.

"I wish Jeremiah was here right now", I muttered to myself.

*Jeremiah's POV*

I walked towards Catherine without her noticing. With a blindfold in my hand, I tied it around head, covering her eyes. "Get it off! Get it off!!! Ahh!!!", she screamed as she jerked herself off the bench. "Catherine...calm down it's me.", I said calmly. "Who? Jeremiah?!", she asked. "Yes. It's me, Jeremiah. Don't remove the blindfold yet!", I told her.

*Catherine's POV*

Hmm...what does Jeremiah want this time? I'll have to be patient and wait. "Catherine Waters...I love you to the moon and back. I want to spend forever with you by my side. I know that will take a long time but I want to start now. So if you would please?" ... Oh no. Am I dreaming? Is he really saying this to me? What should I say??? "...and Catherine, you can take that off now.", he said. I took off the blindfold and saw him wearing his blue jacket and black scarf with matching jeans and shoes. In his hand he held three blood red roses, the freshest roses I've ever seen. "Catherine, I love you so much.", he said. "Jeremiah...", I said speechless. "I love you too." He handed me the roses and gave me a kiss on the cheek. "I'll never let you go, Catherine. I promise that." and I smiled back at him.

This was the best day ever. I can't wait for more of this. I just want everyday of my life to replay at this moment. Like a never-ending movie...
