Cincinnati Boy

Chapter 16

CARO'S POV

I was absolutely pissed at Jon. He also probably ruined my relationship with Joe. I sighed and grabbed Joe's hand. We were walking through a field, I don't know why. But it sure did free my mind. "Joe." I couldn't hold this and any longer. He turned around and looked at me. His beautiful gray eyes and his well done manbun make me feel funny inside. He was beautiful. "Yes, Caro?" He asked with a bit of concern on his face. "Jon kissed me last night." I spat out. He shook his head, "I was wondering what that text was about." He grabbed both of my hands. "I'll kick his ass when I see him again.. Where did he go, anyway?" He pull my arms, pulling my body against his. We wrapped our arms around each other. "I have no idea. But Erica saw.." I sighed. He kissed my forehead. "We'll fix this all up when we're all together again." He stated. I agreed. We stood there, admiring the fresh air. It was plain, but beautiful. "Babe, your shoe's untied." Joe bent down. I didn't even look down. I was too worried about Erica and what happened to her. I finally snapped back into reality and remembered that I'm not even wearing shoes with laces. I looked down and seen Joe on one knee. "Caroline.." He said softly. "I've known you for 3 and a half years now, and every moment I spent with you was a moment I don't want to forget.. Even though we've fought several times. You're my sunshine. My only one. I don't want anyone else but you. And to make sure that happens.." He reached into his pocket and pulled out a small box. He was NOT asking me to marry him, was he?? "So, will you make me the happiest man in the world and allow me to slip this ring on your finger and call you my fiance?" He opened the box, revealing a diamond ring. I widened my eyes and started crying. "Y-Yes.." I barely spoke. I forced him to stand up. He slid the ring on my finger and I jumped into his arms, causing him to fall back into the grass. He laughed and kissed me softly. "I love you." We said at the same time.
