Miss Jackson

Chapter 35

"YES!" she cries out, hugging me tightly.
"Will you marry me?" I finish my sentence with a laugh.
"Yes, oh my god yes" she answers again, kissing my cheek and then pulling away so I can put the ring on. I slide it on and she stares at it for a second before kissing me again and I laugh in the kiss.

Next Day
"Babe, are you ready?" I ask Delilah through the bathroom door. I wanted to take her out for dinner to show off her ring and she literally jumped at the idea, its currently 5 and our reservation is at 6 so shes got to hurry.
"Coming" she yells back and then opens the door and I gasp in how beautiful she is. Everytime I see this girl shes more gorgeous then the last time. I know I see her every day but daaaayyumm. Shes wearing a very cute dress with beads and pearls all over the top half, its a deep neckline showing off some cleavage but I'm fine with it. Her hair is up in a cute bun and her makeup is perfect.
"D...youre gorgeous...as always" I smile. "Can I get a picture?" I question. She nods and I take out my phone. "Hold you're ring up" I order and she does, she smiles really big and I snap the picture and go to Twitter to post it with the caption "It's official, my little bride to be. Love this one!!!"
I slide my phone in my pocket and we leave for the restaurant.

"So is it too soon to talk wedding?" She asks excitedly.
"No not all, hit me with it" I smile at her.
"Okay well I was up until like 3 last night thinking about all this. I want a wedding in autumn...like in October. I think it would be so pretty to have it outside surrounded by all the dark leaves...what do you think?"
"I think whatever you want is perfect babe."
"How soon is too soon to start planning, I don't think I'm ready to get married this autumn...would it be okay to wait...until next year?" She asks. Next year?! I have to wait until next year...I guess it makes sense, she will be 20 by then but I'll be 27...oh lord. 27.
"Yeah, thats perfect." I inform her. She nods with a smile.

When we get home she instantly gets on her phone to call her friends, starting with Ashley.
I pull out my phone to find 5 new comments on that picture of Delilah.
One from my mom: Yay! You're engaged and to such a gorgeous girl, can't wait for the day
One from Dallon: "If you like it you should have put a ring on it" Looks like you did man. Congrats.
One from...Caroline: Wow. So gorgeous. Big step, you guys are perfect.
I don't bother with the rest and set my phone down.
"So Ashley is pretty happy to be a maid of honor" Delilah comes from the bedroom.
"Oh yeah? Well I'm pretty happy to be a groom" I chuckle.
"Well I'm okay to be a bride...I mean, its whatever." She jokes coming over to me, hugging my waist looking up in to my eyes.
"God I love you." I kiss the top of her head.
"I love you too" she kisses my chin.
