Soul Mates?

Promise? (6)

Annabelle's POV
Brady and I have been together for like forever. Everyone thinks that we might not work out in the end but I have faith and so does Brady. Layla actually texts for me sometimes when I don't know what to say. Speaking of texting Brady.
Brady: hey wanna go out tonite?
I text back saying: defiantly...what time?
Brady: 7 I'll pick you up...it's a surprise!
I reply awesome!!
I look over at the clock at it's 5:30...dammit I gotta get ready! Yes it takes me an hour and a half to get ready. I have to get my makeup done and curl or straighten my hair I have to pick out an outfit. I better text the gang.
Help! Date emergency idk what to wear!!
Lay: what about a simple colorful dress and ankle boots?
Anastasia: ankle boots really Lay?
Lay: hey she's the one who asked me for advice on fashion
Kate: technically she asked ALL of us.
Lay: and I answered.
Well I'm still here without any ideas and an hour left.
Kate: okay okay!
Kate: I say go with a simple dress. Knowing Brady it's going to be a surprise so go simple.
Thanks I'll try.
I shut off my phone and threw it on my bed and go over to my closet. I pick out a dress with a white top that has sleeves that go down to my elbow and a lace. The skirt is navy blue with a black belt and casual wedges. I look at the clock and it's already 6:30. Okay I pull my hair down from my bun and just let it be except for brushing it. I dust some eyeshadow on and add a nude lipgloss. And now I have 15 minutes to kill. I walk downstairs while trying to avoid my 4 sisters and parents trying to wrangle 4 girls. I yell a quick bye and head out the front door to see Brady waiting out here 10 minutes early.
"Hello love," he smiles
"Brotato," I smirk.
"Ha ha..." I laugh.
"So off to your surprise," he says sending me that killer smile.
"Blehhhhhh, you know I don't like surprises," I complain.
"Well you're gonna like this one,"
We drive somewhere in the woods. I started to get nervous like why the heck the woods. He then stops the car.
"You know if I wanted to go in the woods I could go behind my house.." I say.
"Just wait,"
We walk for a while until we get to this beautiful clearing. There are orange tulips everywhere and a giant willow tree in the middle with lights everywhere.
"Brady...what is all of this," I ask
"It's a picnic," he smiles that amazing smile of his.
"All of this trouble for a picnic?" I raise an eyebrow.
"Yup," he says plopping the p
"You're a goofball you know that?" I laugh.
"I'm your goofball," he smiles, gosh if looks could kill.
He pulls out a basket from the tree and hands me a pepperoni sandwich and a Coke and he pulled out the same for himself and we started eating. As I finish eating I realize that I had already finished my Coke so I grabbed Brady's and took a sip.
"Hey!" He laughs
"Yes?" I replied innocently batting my eyelashes.
"You stole my Coke!" He pouts
"Did not," I laugh
"Did too...give it back!" I get up and run with his Coke around the tree
"Come back with my Coke!" He runs after me
"You want it back?" I laugh
"Yesss,"
"Gotta catch me!" I yell still running.
He soon catches me and snakes his arms around my waist feeling victorious but he thought too soon I took a big swig a Coke and turned around and spit it in face and tumbles back wiping his face and I continue running until he cuts me off and throws me over his shoulder and starts spinning me around.
"Heyyyyy put me down," I squeal
"Hmmmm lemme think,"
"And?" I ask
"Nope!" And he continues spinning.
He eventually puts me down and we almost die laughing at ourselves.
"Annabelle?"
"Yes?" I respond
"I actually brought you here for a reason..." He says
"Yeah for a picnic," I say sitting up.
"Actually Annabelle," he starts and gets a box out of his pocket.
"Brady..."
"Here me out Belle," he continues
"We have been together for two years, 6 months 5 days 8 hours and 5 minutes...now I know we are too young to get married but I want to feel like this is going somewhere and this relationship is not just one sided...I love you a lot belle and I don't want to lose you...so I got this ring, Annabelle Elizabeth Clarke, will you promise to let me be by your side, to always love you and appreciate the little things and will you promise to be by my side and to always love me and when we are ready eventually marry me?" He pulls out an sapphire ring and kneels down on one knee.
"Yes of course," I laugh a little but am beyond happy that he would go this far to make sure I'm happy.
