Some years had passed since that day, Brandon and I were still together. I was 23 years old , I moved in with Brandon , it was nice just having our own place. It was a nice house with a swing on the porch a pool in the back and an upstairs . We got done unpacking and it looked wonderful. I asked him one day was he allergic to cats or dogs. Because I told him that I've always wanted a black cat and it didn't matter what color eyes just as long as they were pretty.
And he got it when it was a kitten. He told me no but he didn't really like cats that much. I told him I respected his opinion and just left the topic alone. So what do you think we should do first in our new house. He kissed me on the lips and I knew exactly what that meant.
A year had passed I was really starting to get annoyed . I just didn't know why. But I just brushed it off. I came home from work and there was a note on the counter with a white rose beside it. The letter said : Dear Ashely ,
I have something very important news to tell you. Put on that black cocktail dress with your hair in a pretty side bun . Look pretty for me babe. Meet me at the French restaurant downtown called bonjour at 8:00 sharp. I love you!! xoxox
Sincerely , your lover
Brandon Lee Carter
I did what the note said and instead of just black I put on black and red. When I put my hair in a side bun I put a small red flower on it. I put on my black heels with the red on the bottom. I left and it was 8:50 just make sure I wasn't going to be late . The restaurant was really fancy so what he had to say must have been really important. He pulled up in his mustang wondering why I was here earlier than him. "And I thought I was gonna be late". He said. We entered got our seats because he already had reservations surprisingly. We sat down and he asked me how my day was I said it was great and asked him how was his he said it was the same as mine.
It was getting late and he still hasn't told what he wanted to tell me. He finally realized that I was getting irritated and he said he was going to go ahead and tell me. All of a sudden he got down on one knee beside me and asked me to marry him. I screamed YES!!! He got up and I gave him a great big hug and kiss. He pulled out this ring that was just gorgeous it looked exactly like my dream ring a small diamond with a silver band.
