..Keeping My Bestfreind's Heart.. (Lucky Aces) Book 1: For The Love Of AC

Part 44: Proposed..

Lucky's POV

Margareth and I went out in the coffee shop. She's so clingy ang I don't like it. Someone might see us and mistakenly think she's my girlfriend. I just endure the moment for the sake of living us and not bothering us anymore.

She insisted she will drive me home since she has a driver. But I'm not buying it. I couldn't stand by her presence for another minute. She even kiss my cheeks. I just shook my head.

I took out my phone and dialled AC number. I am eying the bracelet I'm holding in my hands. I'm sure AC will like this.

After few rings, she answered her phone. How much I love to hear her voice. I miss her but I notice something in her voice. He's seems disturbed. I asked her if something is wrong but she said she's well.

I was thinking on how shall I give this bracelet to her that she will be surprise. I stood up and went to my balcony. I looked up and saw the stars shining brightly in the sky. What a wonderful night..isn't it?

I walked back inside my room when the guitar under my study table caught my attention. Great! why I didn't think of it?! Serenade! I change my clothed. I'm looking myself in the mirror. Gwafoh koh!

I went down stair fast and saw my parents on the living room watching TV.

"Oh Lucky pasasaan ka?" Mom asked me

"Honey, can't you see it, he's holding a guitar, manliligaw ang anak mo"

"O bakit kailangan pang malingaw, diba sila nah?"

"Yan ang uso ngayon, mag-on na bago ligaw"

I scratched my head "Mom, Dad I'll go ahead"

"Alright son, di mo ba kailangan ng back-up?"

I giggled. "I can do this alone dad..well, I hope so" and dismiss myself.

I feel so nervous. This is the first time I'll serenade someone.

AC's POV

When I open our door I saw Mom in the kitchen preparing our dinner. I kiss Mom's cheek.

"Good eve Mom, where's dad?"

"Still in the hospital, grave yard shift, I'll send him dinner"

"Okay"

"Wait, you're okay baby?"

"Yeah, don't mind me Mom, just tired"

"You sure? I know that sign"

I just smiled my Mom. "really I'm good Mommy"

"Okay, basta if you have problem especially regarding hearts, you can talk to me" she touches my face. I really love Mom's warm hands.

After eating dinner, I went to my room instantly. I'm lying in my bed when the scene in the mall keep flashing back in my mind. I know I shouldn't doubt on Lucky. He loves me, I know it. I should really clarify this to him.

I was about to turn my lights off when I suddenly hear a strumming of guitar below. Right below my window. I hurriedly open it and had one of the biggest surprise in my life. I saw Lucky holding a guitar. He's looking at me dearly.

"AC, I know you sang well, and you know I don't"

I chuckled.

"But because I love you so much, I'm doing this"

He starts strumming.

🎶 🎶 It's her hair and her eyes today
That just simply take me away
And the feeling that I'm falling further in love makes me shiver but in good way.

All the times I have sat and stared
As she thoughtfully thumbs he hair
And she pursed her lips, bats her eyes as she plays
With me setting there slack-jaw and nothing to say 🎶 🎶

My tears started to fall. How much I'm inlove with this guy. I know he wouldn't do something that might hurt me. He has reason. Yes, I will believe him.

🎶 🎶 Coz I love her with all that I am
And my voice shake along with my hands
Coz she's all that I see and she's all that I need
And I'm out of my league once again. 🎶 🎶

When the song ended, I hurriedly went downstair.

I looked at him with stingy face.

"You cried"

"How can't I, you make me cry"

"Did I?"

"Yeah, silly!"

"Is that your way appreciating my serenade AC koh?"

Instead of answering I hug him..tight..

"I supposed to do it when I court you,but we escape that stage, but I promise to court you everyday"

I jus nodded. I'm just so happy right now. The scene of while ago in the mall suddenly elope in my mind. I won't think about it anymore. He loves me, and that's all that matters.

We went inside the house.

"Where's everyone?"

"Dad is still in the hospital, Mom went to send him dinner, Ace is in the room"

"So we're alone here?"

"And why, what are you thinking? I raised my brow

He chucked.

"Nothing, I was thinking that nobody could see what I will do to you tonight"

"Lucky! I'm telling you!" I said nervously

"Why? What are you thinking I might do to you?"

"Ewan ko sa iyo!"

"Hey! you're thinking the other way around" he chuckled again.

I felt my cheeks heated.

Lucky bent down on his knees. Goodness! is he proposing me??!! We're too young for that. I promise my parents to finished school. What shall I do?

"I know, I might hurt you in some way, but rest assured I didn't mean it" he paused

Gosh! This is it!

He get something on his pocket. It's a velvet box. Is he engaging me?!

"I want to give this to you as a sign of my love for you"

I'm only staring the box, with shaking hands I get and open it.

I release the air I've been holding. I'm relief. But what my eyes grow wide when I saw the familiar bracelet inside. It's the one I'm looking at the mall one time. I took the bracelet out in the box.

"Oh my this is beautiful"

"It is, and you are"

I'm staring the bracelet and raise it.

"Thank you so much Lucky koh"

He get the bracelet and put it in my wrist.

"Beautiful...Indeed"

I get also the ring and put it in Lucky's fourth finger.

"Yay, we're like married"

I giggled.

He hug me. I hug him back.

I know not all love story doesn't end with happily ever after, but for me and Lucky, I shall do everything to have that ending. I swear.
