I slammed the door shut with a grunt and walked into the kitchen. I threw my stuff onto the kitchen counter and grabbed a water bottle from the fridge.
"Lizbeth, ¿estas aqui?" I hear Christopher call from upstairs.
"Here!" I yell. I was still mad as to what happened at work today.
After class was over, I had to work a shift at some pizza place. It was my first week so I was still figuring things out. But then my co-worker, who is more experienced than me, left me there all by myself. So I had to take orders, make the pizzas, and serve it. I was boiling with anger by the time the last customer walked out the door.
"What happened?" He asked as he grabbed the water bottle from me and took a sip.
"They fired me." I grumbled angrily. That's right, my boss came back and saw that I left the place a mess, so she fired me.
"Oh, Liz! I'm sorry, princesa." Chris said and started to put his arms around me, but I moved away before he could.
"Yeah, whatever." I mumbled and walked up the stairs to the bathroom.
I grabbed a towel and some clothes before locking the door and started the shower. I soon get in and let the scorching hot water wash me over. I had a lot of stress that needed to be taken care of. After I got out, I quickly dried myself and placed on my clothes.
I was still drying my hair with the towel as I opened the door and saw a single rose on the floor. It was petite and thornless. I picked it up in confusion but stepped foreword and picked up another rose. This one was a soft pink.
I kept taking a few steps until I was out of my bedroom and going down the stairs, finding a new rose each time. I stopped at the bottom of the stairs as I saw that there were no more roses. But instead, bright red rose petals.
They were placed as if to resemble a trail, so I followed them until it lead me into the living room.
I then stopped in my tracks as I saw a beautiful dress laid across the couch with beige colored high heels. All the lights were off and the only light came from the gleaming candles that surrounded the dress.

I walked over and traced the thin fabric with my fingers. It felt soft against the pulse of my hand. This made no sense, why was this dress here in the first place?
"I was saving it for your birthday but, I made an exception." Chris said.
I turned to see him with a box in his hand. And no, it was not shaped like a wedding ring box. It was long and navy blue.
I ran into his opened arms and hugged him tightly. We were both squishing each other as hard as we could. My face was buried in his chest since I wasn't tall enough to reach his neck. His own was buried in my neck.
"Thank you." I whispered.
He pulled away and I stood on my tipytoes to give him a kiss on the cheek. His cheeks redden as he opened the box. It revealed a sliver chain with a sliver heart hanging at the end of it. But as I looked closer, it had my and his own initials carved into it.
"Christopher- thank you, thank you, thank you!" I say as I feel tears form in my eyes.
I give him a great big hug and start laughing and crying at the same time. He hugs back tightly but then pulls away to put the necklace on me.
After he clips the chain on, I turn back to him and decide that he's the only one who can make me happy whenever I'm sad.
That's he's the one that I want spend the rest of my life with.
