RollerCoaster Ride.

Chapter 23

I got to the airport an hour before my flight and got through security with 5 minutes to get to my gate and catch my flight.

"BOARDING FIRST CLASS AT GATE 23, FLIGHT TO MASSACHUSETTS," The intercom system said above my gate.

I hate Jaxon for getting me first class and this beautiful dress. He didn't need to spend all of this money on me.

After, about, a 9 hour flight to Massachusetts, I finally saw him. A white vneck, which showed off his rock hard abs, and his black skinny jeans with his signature TOMS.

"CARLEE!" he yelled through the terminal and ran over to me, grabbing my suitcase for me, right after he crushed me in a bear hug.

"I missed you so much! You don't know how much you've been on my mind and how much you've been in my dreams. I even started writing about you in my journal and gosh, you're the only thing I've been able to think about. You're hypnotizing, Carlee! I can't----"

"Jaxon, I just got here and you're ALREADY gonna talk my ear off?" I winked and laughed after seeing him blush.

"C'mon, Ma Lady. Let's get you to my apartment. It's got two bedrooms so you're good there."

We got home, had a little dinner, talked about how we've been, changed, and somehow, I ended up in his room with him.

Not that I'm complaining.

*DATE NIGHT TIME JUMP*

It took me about two hours to get ready.

I pinned up my bangs in a bump on top of my head.

My hair was curled in tight ringlets and having long hair made it look spectacular, hate to boast.

I put on the beautiful dress Jaxon gave me and I looked in the mirror. I was so happy with how I looked.

But I forgot one thing... MAKEUP.

I put on a ton of concealer and foundation so NO acne could be seen.

I did a slight cat eye with my eyeliner, put on a TON of mascara, and some light lipgloss.

I twirled around a bit and went to put on my heels.

They were about 2 & 1/2 inches and pitch black to match my dress.

I walked into the living room only to find my very handsome date in a tux.

"Carlee, have I mentioned you are absolutely, without a doubt, the most beautiful girl I've ever seen?" He grabbed my hand, spun me around, then pulled me into his chest.

"You know, you don't look too bad yourself, Handsome."

He took my hand, interlocked our fingers, and walked me towards his pick up, that has not changed a bit.

We arrived at the restaurant about 10 minutes after leaving the apartment.

We ate a fantastic dinner and even with all of my refusing, Jaxon paid the bill.

I know he's a gentleman and all, but I felt bad that he was spending all of this money.

The announcer got on stage and after about ten minutes of horrific jokes, he said, "Can I please get the young super star Jaxon Lux to come on stage please????"

Jaxon stood up and walked on stage.

He smiled at me, and said "Pay attention to the words that I sing, okay??"

I nodded and smiled, waiting for his song to play.

JAXONS POV

I grabbed my mic and waited for them to play the song.

I knew how much she would love this and I kept my eyes locked with hers as the music started....

"Your hand fits in mine like it's made just for me...

But bare this in mind, it was... meant to be.

And I'm joining up the dots with the freckles on your cheeks

And it all makes sense to me..."

I looked at her and she had the biggest smile on her face that I've ever seen.

I got to the last line and she had tears of joy falling down her face.

"And I'm in love with you.... And all these little things."

She shot me another smile, bigger than the first, and wiped her tears.

She was clapping harder, and louder than everybody else.

"I need to make an announcement everyone.... To my amazing, beautiful, perfect, best friend Carlee," the spotlight quickly found her and I took a deep breath before starting my short little speech,"that song.... describes exactly how I feel about you. Down to the last line. You're perfect. You're my everything. I love you... so much. More than I could ever begin to explain to you."

She started crying, even harder than before...

She wasn't budging. I wanted her to run up here, and kiss me.

"You're so hypnotizing... You've got me laughing while I sing," I sang lightly...

"I'mmmmm yourssss," I followed that last line with one of her favorite songs.

"Oh, I would catch a grenade for you...."

"No one gets me like... you when you kiss me. Girl, you rock me harder than some downtown band."

"She will be loved."

"I don't want another pretty face, I don't want just anyone to hold, I won't let another minute go to wait. I want you and your beautiful soul..... to get on stage right now, and kiss me.... Please, Carlee."

She walked up to the stage sideline, ran up the stairs, and I stood up.

I walked closer to her with every step she took towards me, and the spotlight followed her.

"I love you," she wiped the tears off of her face.

I brushed her hair that had fallen out of her little bump thing out of her face, grabbed her neck, and connected our lips.

We shared a sweet and simple kiss in front of this entire room and as soon as we pulled away, the crowd cheered.

"Carlee, will you do me the honor.... of being my girlfriend, once again?"

"Yes, Jaxon, yes!" She wrapped her arms around my neck and I swung her around and she kissed me.

But this one was longer, more passionate than the others. She loved me. And this time, I wasn't gonna let her go. No matter what.
