Charlie's Story. (Book Two Of 1D Fanfic) COMPLETED

Chapter Twenty Nine

"Thank you, come back soon!"  Drake tipped the waitress when she came back with our fortune cookies.  I grabbed the fortune cookie in one hand, and Drakes hand in the other.  We set off for the pond beside the restaurant, where a few other couples were walking around.  "I wish you didn't have to leave tomorrow.  I'm going to miss you so much, Drake.  It's been nice having you here for a little while."  He wrapped an arm around my waist, and kissed my head.  "I know, beautiful."  We came to a pretty well lit area on the opposite side of the pond, and  Drake turned around so he was in front of me.  "Have you opened your fortune cookie?"  I held it up to him in the package, and smiled.  "Can I go first?"  He asked, smiling.  I nodded, watching him as he pulled the little piece of paper out and squinted.  "I can't really see it, could you read it to me?"  I took the paper in my hands, and began reading.  "It says, 'The person with you will be very surprised soon.'"  He smiled, and took his paper back.  "Open yours."  With shaky fingers, I began opening the plastic wrap surrounding my cookie.  I cautiously broke it apart, and caught sight of something shimmering in the middle.  "It's...a ring."  I looked up a him with teary eyes as he took the ring in his hand and held it between two fingers for me to see.  "Charlie, I know this is completely crazy...I know that.  But I couldn't wait to spend the rest of my life with you and call you mine.  I've loved you since I met you, and I'll love you until the end of time.  I don't deserve someone like you...someone so perfect.  I just know that you can put up with me more than anyone ever will, and I want to snatch you up before someone else does.  So, Charlie, in two years when you earn your associates degree, would you do me the honor of marrying me?"
