ANYWAY, HERE'S CHAPTER 10

Alexa's POV

---

As I walk through the door, I make sure to acknowledge Sam that I am home. To be honest, I didn't know what would be worse...staying at work knowing I have a lot more work to do or coming home knowing that I will have to cook dinner and clean the whole place. Yeah, not a great choice either way.

Putting my purse down by the mirror which is placed on the hallway and taking my coat off, hanging it off of a coat hook. As I trudge into the living room which is connected to the kitchen, I dread to face what mess I have to face and knowing Sam, he probably wants me to cook a buffet for dinner.

My face lights up and my heart warms at the sight I am presented with when I walk into the conjoined room. I see the man who holds my heart, holding a bunch of white roses whilst wearing a wide grin showing off his pearly whites.

"Baby..." I manage to say.

"Do you like them?" Sam asks me with a hint of concern in his voice.

"I love them, you remembered they're my favourite flowers" I giggle like a little child.

I reach up on my tip toes to give Sam a kiss on his lips. I mean, there is a 6 inch height difference between us. As I reach up, he picks me up and wraps my legs around his waist. He turns around whilst kissing me still and then he plants me on the ground.

"Well, I am more than happy that you like the flowers BUT I'm hoping you will enjoy what is next..."he trails off.

"What's next?" I ask, squinting my eye slightly and tilting my head to the right.

Sam places his hands on my shoulders and ever so gently plants a kiss on my forehead before turning me around to face what looks like the most romantic meal.

I gasp due to the pure shock but I also start to tear up because Sam has never done anything like this for me before. I don't even say anything, I just turn around and embrace Sam in a hug.

"Oh my god, this is so beautiful..." I sob whilst the stream of tears carry on to flood out of my eyes.

No words were said for few moments, giving us both the chance to appreciate that we have each other and this also helped to try to see a different side to Sam.

After enjoying the starter and the main, we are finally onto dessert and I am so full up but I will have to make the exception to eat the Pavlova...not that I really mind of course. Throughout the meal, Sam and I were conveying our thoughts on a number of topics such as stories which have been in the news or just random topics, for example, what life would be like if we had a limit on the amount of words you could say?

Next, Sam then says something which sent more shocks through my body than a defibrillator.

"Do you ever want to get married?" Sam quietly asks, not making eye contact with me.

"Well, it has always been a dream of mine ever since I was a young girl, so has having children and buying my own house. One of them three things have been accomplished but I am not sure when I want to tick the other two boxes."

"That's the same with me, our time will come baby girl...don't you worry"

After completing the whole meal, I am well and truly stuffed. Have you ever been so full up that when you try to walk, you waddle? Yeah, me too. We decide to relax on the couch whilst watching Mamma Mia...a films which legacy shall live on forever. Maybe because it is all I tweet about but that is beside the point.

@alexahart: watching Mamma Mia with the one and only, @sammyward xxx

I think that he gets a little annoyed at me, I sing along to EVERY song and I'm not the greatest of singers. Sam just chuckles and occasionally bursts out that one little high note. The song SOS is probably in my top 3 favourite songs from this film, mainly because I force Sam into singing the duet with me.

Mamma Mia finishes and we are both dead on our feet. Sam fell asleep during the wedding scene so I was stuck there, all by myself being such an emotional wreck. So many people dream of having this huge, fantastic wedding with all this extravagant stuff. I am not saying that my dream wedding is just to pop down to the local registry office but personally, I don't think that you need all of these things to try and prove a point. At the end of the day, whether you spend $100 on your wedding or you spend $100,000 on your wedding...everyone ends up with the same thing which is a certificate and a piece of metal wrapped around your finger. People are too materialistic these days.

My brain is still frazzled at why he asked if I ever wanted to get married.

No...he isn't? Is he?

A/N - So I owe you guys an explanation... the reason i haven't been active at all is because my mum had a stroke and i might sound selfish but there are thousands of other books out there that you guys can read but i only have one mum and making sure that she recovered from her stroke was my main priority. It was honestly one of the scariest things I will ever witness and I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I will try to be more active but I hope you guys understand that my mum still isn't 100% so i need to be with her most of the time incase she has to go to hospital.

Love you guys <3
