Unconditional Love ➳ cethany

14 - The Necklace

Jim's P.O.V (Beth's manager)

No. Tell her.

No. Tell her.

No. Tell her.

"Ugh!"

I shouted in annoyance as the words 'No. Tell her.' kept ringing in my head.

Why was this happening to me?

Why did I have to fall in love?

I shook the thought off my head.

No, I had to overcome my fear.

I had to propose to her.

Beth said she'd help me... so I had to do it.

I couldn't disappoint her.

I groaned, getting up from the bed.

I rushed out of my room and downstairs, where Beth was sitting at the coffee table using her phone.

J: "Beth!"

Beth jumped in her seat, startled.

B: "Whoa! You scared me!"

J: "Sorry."

B: "Its okay. What's up?"

J: "I... I... well... about what you said earlier..."

I was cut off by Beth's giggles.

B: "You accept my help?"

I nodded sheepishly.

She gave me a wide smile.

B: "Good choice, Jim. That's a brave and good choice."

I smirked, mumbling, "I couldn't take it anymore".

B: "Sorry?"

J: "Huh? Urr... nothing."

B: "Okay, well, sit down."

She pulled the seat beside her, indicating for me to sit down.

I sat down, before she started asking me questions.

B: "What do you know about Kenzie?"

J: "Well... not much..."

B: "By not much... what do you mean?"

J: "I know she loves fancy dinners, her favorite color is silver and she likes rubies, but nothing else."

Beth nodded her head slowly.

B: "Well, that's definitely already enough."

I scratched my head.

J: "How? I can't even do anything with that little information."

B: "Its enough to propose to her. I mean, imagine... all you need to do is book a dinner at a fancy restaurant, maybe on the roof. You can buy her a silver necklace with a ruby on it. Simple."

I smiled.

B: "Come on, lets go shopping."

J: "N..now?"

B: "The sooner, the better."

She winked at me, before she got up from her chair and headed to the door.

B: "Come on!"

J: "Coming."

I sighed, as I got out of the seat and followed Beth out the door.
