Last day of school
"Well that's everything ma." I turn to my mother who was helping me pack up. Today was move out day which means get your shit out of the dorm and go home. I was so happy to leave, school was honestly getting on my nerves I was ready to relax with my boyfriend without the stress of school and all the shitty drama thrown my way. After the whole kidnapping thing I got the chance to meet Jordan's daughter Malaia, we instantly bonded of course. I love that girl as if she were my own. Peaches recovered from his wound even though he had to wear a cast that he bedazzled, until it got to the point that it looked like a sequin purse. Shy and I kind of fell off ever since that situation with Ty. I missed her so much but I guess our friendship just wouldn't mend. After my mom found out about the kidnapping situation she was hesitant about my relationship with Jordan but she realized that it was time for me to make my own decisions and I'm glad for that.

"Babe you forgot something." I looked up at Jordan puzzled. 'I know I double checked this room,' I thought to myself annoyed. He had a goofy smile on his sexy face which showed how beautifully his grey eyes were twinkling.

"We have to go on our last date before you leave. I won't see you again for a week, remember?" He pokes his lip out in a false pout. "You forgot about me already Liyah? You haven't even left yet."

I playfully hit his arm, "Oh shutup, nobody has forgotten about you. How would I ever be able to forget your cry baby ass." I laugh and grab his arm. "Come on, you have to see my mom and tell her that you want to go on a date before we leave."

Jordan stops short, "I thought your mom hated me, you know because I.."

"She doesn't hate you." I smile up at him and continue walking over to my mom.

"Oh, hello Jordan. Lovely seeing you again." My mom says with a smile.

Jordan and I both look at her in complete shock, I know I said that she didn't hate him, but goodness. She was like an all new person towards him.

"Hi, Mrs. Spencer." He leans in and gives my mother a hug while placing a soft kiss on her cheek. "Always a pleasure to see you."

"Aaliyah, he's such a gentleman. I guess you were right about him." My mother says with a gentle, apologetic tone. "I'm sorry if I made you feel weird the past few times that I've seen you. I'm a mother, you can't blame me." My mother apologizes.

"Don't worry about it at all Mrs. Spencer. Thank you for letting me continue to date your daughter. She really is the most amazing girl I've ever had the pleasure of meeting in my life." Jordan says in a sweet voice while his eyes concentrate deeply on mine. He leans in slowly, as if he were going to kiss me, but a throat clears in the background and ruins the moment.

"Um.." Jordan stumbles on his words, "She is amazing, but of course not as amazing as you Mrs. Spencer."

My mother laughs, "Why thank you sweet boy. I see my daughter has found her a real charmer."

"Nice save." I whisper to Jordan.

"Come on you two, we have to stuff all of Aaliyah's stuff into my car. You better hope it's enough room for you and all of your shit, or else you gonna have a long walk ahead of you." My mom laughs, but I know how serious she is.

Jordan flashes me a smile, which let's me know. He wouldn't let me walk home alone.

"What do you wanna order babe?" Jordan asks me as we look through our menus at Olive Garden.

"Umm, what are you having? I have to know so we can be sure not to order the same thing."

He giggles lightly, "Why can't we order the same thing babe?"

I give him a 'Duh" look, "If we order the same thing, then it would be stupid when I eat off of your plate. Come on, you should know this by now Bae."

"What am I gonna do without your crazy ass for a week, goodness." Jordan says as he lets out a hearty laugh.

I really don't get the joke, I am dead ass serious, but I guess I can let him just laugh it off this time. "I'm going to miss you too baby. Can you believe we've been together for six months already. Time flew by, I remember when I first met you.

"Haha, yeah! I remember that day! Your mom wanted to kill me." Jordan laughs. "Babe, you wanna know a secret about that day?"

"Yes, tell me your secret Jordan."

"When I first saw you that day, that was when I first started liking you. You just had this look about you. You looked innocent and yet fiesty. I know I made it seem like I didn't want to share a room with you for those first few weeks, but I was scared to switch room. I guess, I just felt deep down that something great was meant to happen between us."

"Awe baby." I lean across the table and give Jordan a kiss.

We pull up to the mall which is where my mom told us to meet her after we finished our lunch date. It was still early, but we both had to make our ways home so we decided to head back. I am about to get out of the car when Jordan grabs my arm lightly.

"Wait, before you go. I have a gift for you baby." Jordan says with a huge smile on his face.

"A gift? For me? I didn't know we were getting gifts. I feel bad now." I say attempting to hide the excitement in my voice with sadness.

Jordan see's right through my act. "You didn't have to get me anything baby. I just got you this because I wanted to spoil you and give you something to have of mine even though we won't see eachother everyday anymore."

"Well, what is it baby? You know how bad the suspense kills me. What did you get me?"

"Close your eyes and give me your wrist baby." Jordan says with an even bigger smile on his face than before. I gently close my eyes put my hand out in front of me. He grabs my hand and wraps a bracelet around my wrist.

"Open your eyes baby."

I gasped in suprise, he got me a Pandora Bracelet. It was so beautiful and it looked like it cost a fortune! The charms dangled from the bracelet and twinkled lightly. I always dreamed of getting a pandora bracelet but I always knew that I could never afford something as extravagant as this. I pulled the bracelet close to my face to admire the true beauty of it. On the bracelet were three amazingly beautiful charms. The charms on the chain were a music note, a baby and an infinity sign.

"Awe baby, it's so beautiful! What are the charms to represent?"

Jordan and smiles, "You should already know baby, but I'm happy to tell you. The music note, is to represent our first date. Remember, I wrote you that song and we danced all night to it in the movie theatre?"

"Of course I remember, it was the sweetest first date I've ever been on in my life. I'll never forget it." I smile over at Jordan. "And the baby?"

"I was a little nervous about your reaction to this one, but the baby is for Malaia. It's to let you know, that no matter what, you have been more of a mother to Malaia then her actual mother ever was. So if you wanted to, you could think of her as if she were your own." Jordan looks at me with a blank expression. I can tell he's nervously waiting for my response.

"I love that idea, I will keep that in mind." I smile at him.

He let's out a sigh of relief. "Goodness, you are so amazing. You amaze me more and more everyday Aaliyah."

"You amaze me too Jordan, more than you could ever know." I smile at him, "And the infiniti sign?"

"Ha, my favorite one. That one represents how long I plan to love you. Always and Forever baby."

I can no longer keep my calm, I reach over to Jordan's side of the car and kiss him passionatly. He is just so incredible. I can't imagine my life without him.

"I love you Jordan Green."

"I love you too Aaliyah Spencer."
