Seduction.

All I wanted to do was take my mind off of things — especially wanting a baby, the abortion, and everything else. Justin has been good to me, but in a way, we've been bad for each other. I caused him to get arrested, to fight, use drugs and he caused me to get a miscarriage. I wouldn't pin the miscarriage on Justin, he told me to stay away but I didn't listen because I didn't want to stop having sex with him. I just wanted to leave the past in the past. We started to order dinner, everything looked and sounded terrific. Justin holds up his phone taking a picture of me. I smiled putting my menu down taking it from him.

"What are you doing? Don't delete it," He says. "I don't have any pictures of you."

"You don't need a picture of me. I'm all yours. I'm not going anywhere." I said with a smile kissing him.

"Speaking of all mine...there's something I've wanted to ask you for a while..should've done it a couple of years ago, but I was nervous." He says, I chuckled taking a sip of my wine. He gets up from the table digging into his coat pocket.

"Justin..is this going the way I think it's going?" I asked with my heart beating rapidly. He takes a deep breath getting on one knee. "Justin--"

"Before you go any further..I know these past years have been a blur..to the both of us. We fought for each other, stood by each other, have incredible sex together. I don't want that to end..I forgive you, for what you did. We may not become a family, but we don't need a baby to be one. I want you to know that I won't ever stop fighting for you..for us..a future together. It's been you all along Adrian; you don't know how happy I was seeing you on that bench, waiting to pick you up." He says, I giggled. "I can go on and on about you. You taught me that love is easy and it can be a bitch sometimes. I've learned to stop rushing into things with you and with our relationship. It's just I'm scared someone can come out from nowhere and scoop you off of your feet without even knowing. I've also learned that anything can happen within the blink of an eye. Everything is different with you when I'm around you, I forget about how famous I am, how much money I'm getting, who people want me to be. The last thing I want to do is be unhappy with someone that's not you. So, will you marry me, Adrian? It's funny you never told me your middle or last name."

"I don't have a middle name and my last name is Philips...I figured you were proposing and...yes." I said. He stood up smiling putting the ring on my finger kissing me. "Holy shit..its huge. How much was this exactly?"

"Over 500 grand," He says sitting next to me drinking his wine.

"5-500 grand! That's half a million dollars."

"Yeah. The one I gave Amanda wasn't even close to that much; she was a gold digger."

"Wow, you finally noticed. Well, it's gorgeous. I would've been happy if you proposed with a ring pop. I don't want your fans or anyone thinking I'm like Amanda. I'm not; it's just...I know in high school I kept denying my love for you, and I didn't want to date you. I didn't know bad things were going to happen. I apologize for that; now you make me realize what I was missing. I was a stubborn bitch. I never wanted to be the one that had you put in jail. You didn't have to fight Jason or protect me from your mom."

"Don't worry about it; it's in the past. You made me a better person from what I was a few years ago. I'm just happy you can change that." He says, I smiled kissing him.

"I'm always here. You can talk to me if you're feeling doubts about something. I'm happy that I'm now engaged, and I'm happy you supported me with my dreams and with the whole cancer situation. I don't even think I would be sitting here if it wasn't for you. Thank you." I said, he smiled and kissed me, sliding his tongue in. He places his hand on my cheek making out with me; he pulls away taking a fork dropping it on the floor.
