We both fell asleep still laying on each other in Egypt's bed. I woke up to someone tapping my shoulder.
" Oh my God!"I jumped up wrapping the comforter around me. Zack jumped up almost off the bed. Little Cleo was standing by the side of the bed cheesing.
" Hi Auntie!"
I looked at Zack and we both bursted out laughing.
" Hi Cleo, where's mommy and daddy?"
" In room with tv."
The living room.
" Okay go ahead with them and I'll meet you down there okay sweetie?"
She nodded her head and ran out to the living room. I smiled, looking at Zack. He took his hand and brushed it against my cheek to my lips.
" YOU, were worth every second of that four year wait. You sure you never..??" Zack smirked and winked. I punched him in the shoulder.
" No Zack! You're my first..and ONLY.." I instantly remembered the question he asked me as we made love.
" Gold I know I asked already but.."
" Yes. Yes Zack. I want to marry you," I moved closer to him and kissed his cheek.
" Now..uh..we need to hurry and get dress." I reached down towards the floor grabbing our clothes. I threw his to him and started putting mine on.
" Are you coming home?" Zack asked before he started putting on his clothes.
" Yes, Zack. Put on your clothes!"
●●●
We made our way downstairs and into the living room. Egypt and Daniel were cheesing HARD.
" Ummm..sorry about.." Zack started.
" No need to apologize I said it was ok for you to come talk to her. Now finish whatever you started at YOUR house." Egypt bust out laughing. I went over to hug her and Daniel we said our goodbyes and finally left to go back home. When we got there I put my bags down and hugged Zack tight.
" Dont you ever, ever ever ever do THAT again." I whispered in his ear.
" I will never. You're my future wife Goldie," He kissed me on my forehead and just held me. When we let go of each other I made my way upstairs to put my clothes back. When I got into our room it looked like a crime scene. I jumped when Zack came behind me.
" Zack I wanna change the room around. Especially the bedding.."
He plopped on the bed and took off his shirt smiling.
" Fine with me. But can you come here first.."
I laughed.
" Really? Didnt have enough?"
" I'll never have enough of you. "
Well. Ok then.LOL. I jumped onto the bed and started playing with him and tickling him.
" Enough of me now? Huh? Huh? Ow! Zack did you just bite my neck!?" He laughed and tried fighting me off. Seconds later I was pinned down underneath him. I smiled while he started kissing where he bit me.
" I'm sorry babe, does that feel better," Zack whispered in my ear. I shuddered at his sexy voice. I accidentally moaned. He chuckled and kissed my lips.
" Zack wait can we talk?" I got myself together and sat up. I dont even remember taking my shirt off..unless he did...ANYWAY
" Why do you wanna marry me?" I asked him.
" Because I love you more than anybody I know. And only REAL wives stay with their men when they screw up. Now its not just a thought because of what happened. I've been thinking about it since last year. I love you and I need to spend the rest of my life waking up to your gorgeous face," He wiped tears on my cheek that I didnt even know I had. I smiled and grabbed his hand and held it on my lap.
" Zack you know I love you just as much probably more. And I definitely want to marry you. But when and how we're still in college?"
" We both have one year left in college. One. After that you know? Come downstairs I have something for you."
I looked at him like he was crazy. I put on my shirt and followed him hand in hand downstairs. In the kitchen, on our table was a basket of MY FAVORITE. Chocolate covered strawberries, pineapples..it was BEAUTIFUL. Then there were two plates of German chocolate cake slices with a bottle and two glasses of champagne.
" Oh my God, how??" I asked. Zack smiled and took out my chair for me before sitting down.
" I made arrangements for a catering service to stop by the house at 11pm. It was when we were sleep I woke up before you did and decided to do something nice. Setting up for an occasion I hope you'll never forget."
" Aaaaw Zack! My favorite cake, sweets, and my favorite drink. With my favorite person. " I smiled and we dug into the cake while chatting. The cake was SO good.
" There's a card for you in the fruit basket,"
I reached to get the card and I screamed when I got it. Attached to the card was a BEAUTIFUL ring with diamonds ALL OVER. I opened the card and it read
To make it official. I'm SORRY. Do you forgive me?
" Do you like it?" Zack asked.
" I LOVE IT!"
He reached for the ring and took it in his hand before bending on one knee.
" Without you I'd just be some wack nigga talking to any girl I could get my hands on. Without you I would've never realized how great life really is. Gold Harris will you marry me and forgive me officially?"
Here the tears come. DAG!
" Yes!! Yes! Yes!" He put the ring on me and I got up from my chair jumping onto him hugging him. My eyes were closed cause I was smiling so hard but out of the corner of my eye I peeped Zack's eyes water a little. REAL MEN DO CRY!! ♥♡♥♡♥
