~Chapter 9~

Madison's POV

Two days later....

I pulled up my pink strapless dress over my body. I was wearing glitter silver pumps and silver jewelry. Anthony and I were getting ready for a double date with Cam and Rose tonight. The guys were surprising us.

"Anthony! Can you come and zip up my dress?!!" I screamed through my dorm.

"God babe, are you trying to make me go deaf in my other ear?" He said and chuckled. I immediately stiffened.

"Please don't use your ear as humor." I whispered and he stopped laughing.

"Madison how many times do I have to remind you that this is not your fault?" Anthony said sadly. No matter how many times he says it's not my fault, deep down inside I know it is.

"Can you just please zip my dress?" I asked again and I studied my reflection in the bathroom mirror. Anthony entered the bathroom and I heard him suck in a breath when he saw me. I saw his eyes travel down my back and it was now apparent to me that he could see my bra strap due to my dress not being zipped. I blushed.

"Done checking me out yet?" I asked his and a smirk made its way on to my face. He smiled.

"I don't think I'll ever be done doing that." He said and I blushed more.
"We've known each other for more than five years and you would think you would have gotten you blushing under control. However, I can still make you blush as red as a cherry." He said and started walking over to me. His hand traveled up my back as he zipped the dress. I involuntary shivered when he finished. He smirked.

I turned around to look at him. He looked me right in the eyes and his face softened. I raised my hand and moved his hair out of the way. I touched my hand to the top of his hearing device that was covered by his hair. His eyes never left my face while mine were carefully studying the device.

"Is that all you think about?" Anthony suddenly asked with his voice in a whisper. I looked in his eyes. His eyes now had an anger tint to them. I shook my head. "No. I'm just trying to get used to it. If I'm going to be with you, I have to be with all of you. That device is now a part of you." I told him. He smiled very widely at me.

"Be with me? You want to be my girlfriend again?" He asked excitedly.

"Yes." I answered and smiled back.

"Hallelujah." Anthony said and kissed me. I wasn't ready for that kiss so it took me a while to respond. He was kissing me with so much happiness and need. I jumped up and sat on the bathroom counter. Even with heels on he was still almost a foot taller than me. He pulled away for a second and leaned his forehead against mine.

"What was the doctor talking about when he asked if we were newlyweds?" Anthony asked with clear amusement in his eyes.

"Oh yeah about that....Sophia told the doctor we were married so he would let me in to see you." I told him.

"Married huh? I don't have a problem with that." Anthony said happily. I went wide eyed.

"You actually would want to marry me?" I asked him. He looked at me like I was crazy.

"Why wouldn't I? You are everything I dreamed of my whole life. I love you more than anything. I couldn't picture a day of my life without you. I practically killed myself because of you. I don't see a reason why we shouldn't get married." He said with a bright smile on his face and truth is his eyes the entire time.

"Me either." I said smiling. Some emotion I couldn't tell what it was, flashed through his eyes. He looked at me for a second and then shook his head, as if trying to get rid of some thought. I stared at him confused.
