*Marilyn's Point Of View *

Michael's mother looked at him and I looked at him and so did my mother. "Michael why didn't you tell me I'm not mad just surprised and relieved", She said with a wide smile. Michael looked at her with confusion then he  smiled. "I'm sorry mom I kinda just asked her a few hours ago that's why I asked to bring her here and invited her mom so you guys can talk and meet", He looks at his mom like he is  waiting for her approval. Her eyes widen."Aww Michael that's sweet and you don't have to apologize I thought you had asked her long ago and you were just telling me, I'm so happy!",Michael looks at me smiling and I do the same. "Mom it's not like I asked her to marry me ha-ha", His mom eyes grow wider and looks at  Michael and I."That would make me the happiest as long as ya'll do it for love", I look at Michael and look down He contonues to look at me and smiles wider. "I agree with Katherine I think that is cute but can we agree to save the wedding talk Marilyn?", My mother said looking at me then at Michael's mom. I giggle. "Katherine this was delicious thank-you ", My mom said standing up as Michael's mom did the same. They both got the plates and walked out the dining room into the kitchen.  Michael and I stand up as well. "Mom we will be in my room if you need us!", He said as we went up the stairs to his room ,"Ok honey!, but yeah me and his father are no longer together thanks for... ",  his mother said continuing her conversation with mine. I follow Michael into his room. We sit on his bed. "I'm glad our mom's get along", I said swaying my feet back and forth. He nods. "Yeah me too, it's weird that seeing or being here without dad things, happened kinda fast he has visitation rights so it's not like he is completely gone", He said now looking down "Well all that matters is that you are happy your mom is happy and that their not in a nasty custody battle", I said looking down feeling the sting of threatening tears. Michael looks at me worried then scoots closer to me and hugs me. "Marilyn you don't have to tell me but what happened to your dad?", I start crying a little. Michael wipes some tears from my face and lifts my chin up. "Baby girl don't cry you look prettier when you smile, Marilyn show me that pretty smile I love so much please?", He said kissing every tear that was rolling from my face. I wipe my face and look at him. "Well my mom and dad had regular marital problems especially about his job, Always too into his work, They would argue and then he turned to drinking and long story short there was a nasty custody battle, and it I guess you can say killed him he lost", I said now crying more. Michael pulls me into his chest, "Marilyn I'm sorry is he-"I cut him off. "Yeah he is dead after a car accident", I said trying to stop from crying. Michael just looks at me. Clearly not knowing what to say. I force a smile. "Michael I'm ok it's just when I talk about it I start crying", I get up and go walked in his  bathroom. He follows me. "Marilyn I'm sorry you went through all that and this was with your real mom?, "Uhh yeah Ms. Burgess is a single parent never been married well, engaged a couple times that's it", "Oh I see comes here", I turn around and he wipes my face and kisses my cheek then hugs me. We hugged like this for awhile. "Michael it's time for Marilyn to go so come walk her and her mom out!", Se let go and he grabs my hand and we head back downstairs. "Ok mom here we are","Thanks for having use Katie I had a wonderful time", "Anytime sweetie and Melinda we have to get together some time so we can get fully aquainted","I agree we do Katherine thanks again for dinner ","Like I said the pleasure is all mine you guys have a nice night and drive safe", "Ok we will ",Our mother's  hug then Michael's mom hugs me. Michael walks us to his car and we drive to my house. On the ride there my mom was talking to Michael asking questions. She is so embarrassing. We finally arrive and Michael let's me and my mom out. She heads straight to the front door to do the alarm, while Michael and I  slowly walk in the house. "Mom Michael has to get his stuff so don't cut the alarm on yet", "Ok hunny I'll be in the shower I'm pooped", She said as she went in her room and closed the door. Michael and I walk to my room. "I had a good time and I swear I learn something new about you everyday Marilyn", He said packing his stuff. I take off my jacket and shoes and sit on my bed. I know same for you Michael that's what I love about you besides your heart and those lips of yours ha-ha", "Oh so you love my lips huh?", He said putting his stuff down walking to me biting his lip. "What?,But yes I do", He walks between my legs and leans down so our foreheads touch.He puts hand on my waist. "I might not leave if you say that again", He said leaning up to turn around to get his stuff but I grab him and pull him in for a kiss.I pull back slowly. He smiles. "Dang girl I need to get my stuff before I forget my purity pledge ha-ha", "Ha-ha alright Michael go get your stuff", I said looking at his butt. His butt is small but cute! He must have noticed I was staring  because he turned around looking at me chuckling. "Were you looking at my butt girl?",I strug. "Jhh kinda only because it's cute you have a cute butt Michael","So I've heard, What else do you think is cute about me?", I look at him and walk to him. I walk in a circle around him looking him up and down patting my finger on my chin. "What girl?", He said playfully. "Well first I love the way you give me an intense stare when I talk to you, I love how you kiss me, I love how sexy you are without trying, I love your smile, I love how you treat me, and how you hold me like I'm a delicate flower, and most of all I Love you Michael", I said stopping in front of him. "I feel the same way, I do, I know we are only in high-school but soon we will be seniors graduating and all of that but I want to promise you here and now that we will be together forever I Love you  too Marilyn Michelle Monroe Jackson", He said looking at me with that intense stare. I step closer and wrap my arms around his neck. "And I promise you the same Michael", I said as I look back at him.  He leans down and kisses me tenderly.  Then he grips my waist as we lean against the wall and pull away. I caress his face and kiss him again. This time I pull away. "Babygirl I gotta go before I convince myself to stay, walk me the door?", "Yeah okay", He grabs his stuff and we walk out my room and to the front door. We pass my mother's room. "Bye Ms Burgess thanks for everything!", "You're welcome Michael have a nice night!",She yelled back sleepily. We reach the front door. "I don't want to go but my mom needs me", Michael said stopping in front of me. "I know Michael it's ok", I said playing with a curl in his face. "Well I better go I Love you baby girl",  "I love you too Michael, Did I tell you I Love it when you call me babygirl?", "Really now? I'll remember that on our wedding night ha-ha", "Michael! is this what It urned you into? ha-ha a pervert?", He leans in my ear. "Only for you babygirl", He whispered.Sending chills down my spine. "Michael you better go before I drag you back in here and regret it later", "You would regret that? ", He said with seriousness in his tone. "No-no-no, Michael not like that but I do want to wait though, but only for you, And if it just so happens we don't wait then I'm fine with that too", I said planting a kiss on his lips.He smiles. "I agree and I'm glad you think that well I really better go now", "Ok bye Michael", "Bye babygirl", He said as he walked to his car and got in. I watched him pull of then turned to head back in the house. Gosh that boy is amazing I'm falling for him more each day....
