Ship of love Epilogue

Two years later

The last two years has been great. Jason and I are still going strong even though we have our differences about a few things. The twins are getting older and more smarter each day. They started using full sentences to communicate with friends and family. Jason says they take after him, but I disagreed because we all know children take after their Mama's since we spend most of the day with them. Ok, in some cases it's the father that spends the day with them. I can't argue that but, in my case it's me so the twins are smart like their mommy.
Tamara and Mike had a beautiful baby girl a few months ago and they named her Kerri. She looked just like Tamara with her beautiful eyes and complexion. She is going to be a looker when she gets older.
Carmen and Mike still don't have any kids yet. They want to wait another year to start trying for some reason but I never really asked why. It's none of my business after all. They said they'll just spoil our kids rotten until they have their own.
Em's and Toby had a baby girl a year ago and named her Olivia and she looked just like her daddy.
Today is Jason and I's anniversary. I couldn't believe it was exactly three years ago today that we met. I didn't want to make today our anniversary. I wanted my anniversary to be the day Jason came back into my life,but Jason didn't want it to be that day. We were sitting at home watching T.V when he said

"I want our anniversary to be the day I first set my eyes on you."

"Why?" I asked

"Because that's the day you made me realize there are beautiful people inside and out. When you were talking to the older couple and handled the whole seating arrangement situation I knew you were not only a beautiful face but a compassionate person as well. The whole week we were together you had me falling in love with you and I didn't even notice it until I lost you. I was just too stubborn to admit it. Not only to myself but to my friends also. They called me every name in the book for letting you go,but I didn't want to admit it because I was afraid I was going to end up getting hurt again. That's why I pushed you away that last day on the ship, but then I realized it was me who was hurting myself. The day you called to tell me you were pregnant I was nervous, excited, and pissed all at once. I was just afraid to believe that I had another chance with you so I just built a wall around my heart and tried to move on. That didn't work though because when I saw you again with my sons the wall around my heart just crumbled and I knew I couldn't hide my feelings for you any longer."

I just sat there staring at him after hearing his story. I didn't know what to say because I was overwhelmed with emotions. I didn't say anything so i just took his face between my hands and kissed him and then dragged him upstairs to show him exactly how I felt about him.

Here I am today getting dressed for my anniversary. Jason was taking me on a surprise date.

"What am I supposed to wear?" I asked him

"Wear something nice and casual but make sure it's something that'll keep you warm too because it might be a bit chilly."

"Just tell me where we're going Jason. Please." I said

He came closer and pulled me closer to him. He bent down and whispered " No, now go get dressed. I'll be back in an hour to pick you up." He slapped my butt and walked out laughing.

I took a quick shower, blow dried my hair and Then I curled my hair and left it down. I put some mascara on making my eyelashes longer. Then I put on red lipstick to match my dress.
I put on a long red silk dress that had a split on the side. I took out a small black jean jacket and wore it over the dress. My outfit was nice and casual just as he suggested. I wore silver hooped earrings and matching bracelet. I took my phone and put it in my pocket since I wasn't taking my purse with me. I wore my black studded sandals and went downstairs to wait for Jason.
The house was quiet without the twins. My parents took them for the weekend so Jason and I can celebrate our anniversary in peace. I was about to sit on the couch when the bell rang. I opened it and seen Jason standing there wearing black jeans and a white collared polo shirt,a black sports jacket, and white and black air jordans. He looked hot and he was holding a blindfold in his hands.
