The Inevitable

Chapter 17: The Question

APOV

"Everything is set, even the finale." Dana said. Dana is the one in charge of my mom's restaurant.

"Cool. Thanks again for doing all this." I said as I checked my phone.

"Anything for Mrs. Hills' daughter." She said as she smiled.
"I will be in the back room, so we can close out after you leave but no hurry. You guys can stay as long as you guys want." She continued.

"Thanks again. Um I gotta pick up Stevie now. Wish me luck." I said as I wore my hat.

"Good luck! You got this." She yelled as I was heading towards the door.

I drove to school and I was late for about 30 minutes. I saw Stevie sitting in the benches outside the school. I stopped and unlocked the door. She looked pissed.

SPOV

Ally is late for more than 30 minutes. She stopped and got out her car and got in the passengers seat.

"You drive." She said as I smirked at her.

I got in the drivers seat and buckled my seatbelt. I started driving.

"So you wanna grab dinner?" Ally while texting someone on her phone.

"You were late. Are you not gonna bring that up." I said trying to focus on the road.

"I know I'm sorry. But come on I'll make it up to you. Do you want to go on a date with me?" She said while was still texting someone and smiling.

"Who are you texting?" I asked trying to forget about her question.

"It's no one. So you wanna go to that restaurant called Cuisine Céleste?" She asked.

I'm really getting suspicious. What if she was texting a girl she went on a date with a while ago?

"That fancy restaurant downtown? It's expensive. Let's just go get pizza." I replied.

"Come on. I'll pay. I'm making up my lateness plus I want to take you out on a fancy shmancy date." She said as she smiled at me.

"Fine." I finally gave in.

I drove to the place to find out that it was closed for a special event. I parked on an empty parking lot.

"Ally I told you we should've just stayed in and got pizza." I said as I turned to her. She smiled at me and gave me a peck on the lips. She got out of the car and opened my door.

"Let's go." She said as she offered her hand.

"It's closed, I don't know why yo-" she cut me off.

"LADY! Just take my hand." Ally said as I took her hand.

We walked in and it looked really beautiful. The carpet was mahogany brown. The tables were covered with a pearl white cloth. Everything looked amazing.

"Ms. Hills." A waiter stopped in front of us and nodded his head. He then directed us to a table for two. Ally whispered something to the guy.

"Ally, how did you do this?" I said as She put her hand on top of mine in the table. We were across each other.

"My mom owns the place. I wasn't really in a family reunion. I was organizing this." She said as she smiled at me.

"Ally. You didn't have to." I said. I was so flattered.

Fancy music was even playing in the background. We got our appetizers and then the main entrée and lastly the dessert. Everything was delicious. It was amazing. Ally got up her chair and offered her hand to me again.

"Come with me." Ally said as I took her hand.

We walked out to the garden and it was just astounding. Their were lights hanging on the trees. Flowers blooming. The smell of grass. And then there was a table in the middle.

"Go ahead." Ally said as she removed her hand from mine.

I walked to the table and saw a little box. I opened it and saw a gold Tiffany and Co. necklace with a little heart pendant. It was breathtaking. I looked behind me with the box still in my hand. Ally was staring at me.

"May I?" Ally asked as I handed her the box.

She put the necklace on me and it was beautiful.

"Wow. I had no idea that it would look ten times better on you." Ally said as I laughed I couldn't help but tear up. I kissed her and she pulled away.

"Do you like it?" She asked me as I looked at it.

"Like it? I love it. I love you. Thank you." I said as I hugged her and kissed her again.

"I have one more thing to ask." She continued.

"What?" I asked as I wiped my cheek.

"Will you be my girlfriend?" She asked as she shut her eyes waiting for a respond.

"I won't." I said.

APOV

SHE JUST SAID THAT SHE WON'T BE MY GIRLFRIEND.

"What?" I asked trying to calm myself down.

"I won't just be your girlfriend. I'll be your everything. I'll be your nurse, your best friend, and your body guard. I'll be anything you need." She said as I was relieved. I smiled and bit my lip.

She hugged me and kissed me.

"I love you Allison Hills. I will always do." Stevie said as she kissed me again.
