THE BASEMENT

Jakson Monroe

The next day when Arianna and I leave Kenzie's house, i drive her back home. She will be turning 18 next week and then Aiden, Arianna, and I will be moving into Kenzies house, along with a few of our other friends. Kenzies dad died in an accident a few years back, and her mom has been sick lately. Her grandma seems quite happy knowing her sister was finaly found. But she is trying to help out with Kenzies mom, but not even the doctors can help. We arrive at Ariannas house and she gets out of the car. "Bye, love you." I said. "Love you too." She says. She heads up the stairs and up to her porch. Once she gets in I leave. As soon as she turns 18, and we move in with Kenzie, Im planning to propose to her. I want her to be part of my family. I already bought her ring as well. I know we are young but I love her. Nothing will ever change that. So as i drive away from her house i watch her throught the rearview mirror, while shes talking to her parents.

The next day at school Arianna and I head to our first class. Its English, with our teacher, Mrs. Dodson. She waits for us all to sit down, then comes around and grabs our homework. Tomorrow is Ariannas birthday. I cant wait for her special birthday dinner. She has no idea of the gift I have for her. I fly through my english classwork, and get ready to go. Arianna gets up as the bell rings and we head to math class. Our teacher Mrs. Dameron gives us homework to work on in class while she grades papers. The rest of the day goes on like this in music, science, P.E., and history. At the end of the day, i get everyone piled into my car and we drive to Kenzies to make Ariannas special birthday dinner. I cant wait to give her the gift ive been waiting firever to give her. I have it all planned out. When she is surrounded by candles and gets her beautiful cake, I will kneel down, take her hand, and ask her the question. Perfect.
