Trojan called me in the morning and sounded so nervous!!! "Alright Trojan, I'll be over soon, I've just got to catch the bus." I hung up and smiled. Now that Riane was out of the way, I could get further along with my plan for Lincoln to love me.
I arrived at their apartment and opened the door. Trojan was sitting on the couch rolled up in a blanket and the lights were off. The tv was on and he was watching Supernatural while eating veggie chips.
"Trojan!" I put my hands on my hips. "What are you doing?!" I shouted with a bit of a bossy tone.
He sniffed.
I walked to the front of the couch and looked at his face. He was totally not sick. "Trojan don't tell me you're backing down." I walked over to the wall and flipped on the lights.
"AHHhhhh." He shrunk back and pulled the blanket over his head. "NO... I just.. I'm so nervous! I love her so much and it's justttt.."
"Just what?" I popped my hip to the side.
"This is such a big step. It's almost over whelming."
I grabbed his arm and pulled him off the couch and pushed him to the floor. "Go get some nice clothes on. It's time to get this shit taken care of."
He raised his eyebrows and smirked, leaving the room and coming back with some pretty dapper clothes. I had to admit he was hot.
"Alright, lets go."
We got in the car and tension was in the air as he drove. We drove past the park and I hit him on the shoulder. "Why'd you pass the park!!?"
He smiled nervously. It's not four yet."I thought I'd just pay her a visit at her personal trainers studio."
"Okay, fine, why don't you just propose to her there?"
He glanced at me, then shrugged. "Why not I guess."
We arrived there and Trojan suddenly seemed to be drawing into himself.
"Trojan!! Youre so close!!!! Come on BOY!"
He unbuckled his seat belt and stiffly got out of the car, holding the little glass box in his hands.
"Do you want me to stay in the car?"
"Do whatever you want." He looked up at the sky and said a silent prayer.
"I'll stay here and let you do your thing." That was I lie. I was definitely watching.
He entered the building and stood in the hallway outside of where she was training. He breathed in shaky breaths and froze, closing his eyes. A shudder went through him and he opened his eyes, determination burning in them. (I was watching from around the corner.) He smiled, then looked at me and silently laughed. I gave him a smile and a thumbs up. He repeated my gesture and turned to the door. His hand hovered over the handle for what seemed like hours and you could see his back muscles tensing up through his shirt.
"Come on." I whispered.
He nodded, then took a deep breath, rolled his shoulders a little in preparation, then opened the door.
"OH MY GOSH." His jaw dropped and he dropped the little box in his hand. It hit the floor and the box shattered, the ring flying across the floor and coming to a slow stop at Rianes foot.
______________________________________
My jaw dropped and I could feel hatred beginning to burn inside of me. I wanted to kill them. I wanted to take that diamond ring and stab them a million times with it then make them apologize to everyone. The person I was really worried at about right now was Trojan... He'd worked so hard for this?
