CASSIE FORTZ

27

Months later, everything was going well with me and my family. My bond with Levi became stronger, mum got a job at a restaurant as the head chef.

Yeah

She always loved to cook

Jamie and Jordan got into the University of New york

While I continued as the manager of credos all though I was already making plans to start up my own business as I had already saved up enough.

The weekend came and Mum, the girls and I were at home having a little family time.

A knock on the door got me walking to the door

"coming" I open the door and I'm met with a good looking levi

"Baby!" I jump into his arms and he chuckles

"Hey princess"

"you didn't tell me you were coming" I say with a pout and he kisses me

"Well, I wanted to surprise you" he pulls me to him and we kiss

I don't know how long we were kissing but we were broken apart when we heard the door

And we turn to see my mum

"Well you were taking too long I just had to come check"

"Hey Levi" mum says and I smile

"hey Cassandra, how are you doing?" he asks mum

"oh I'm fine. Never been better. Anyway I'm gonna go inside now. Y'all should too so you don't catch a cold." she says with a smile and heads inside

"coming mum" I call after her

"I missed my baby" Levi says placing his arms around my waist.

"Me too handsome." I turn to kiss him and we share a hug.

"Come on, let's go inside" he says and we walk inside, hand in hand.

"Oh hey lovebirds" Jamie says immediately we enter the house.

And Levi chuckles

"nice to see you again Jamie" he tells her

"And you too Jordan"

"Well, actually I um wanted to take you guys out. I actually have a surprise for you Cassandra"

"Really?" mum asks with a smile

"Yes, you guys can come right away" he says

"Wait don't we need to change or something?" I ask

"oh no you all look great." he says

And then we all head out to his car.

We drove for a while until Levi stopped at a beautiful house. He honked and the security guard opened the gate and he drove in.

When we got out of the car we were all confused

"Um babe where's the surprise?" I ask admiring the building in front of me.

"This is the surprise." he says and my eyes go wide

"Cassandra I bought this house for you. The documents concerning the house will be mailed to you. I want the best for you all just as I want the best for my princess. So please ma'am" he says with a gesture for mum to go in

We all scream in excitement. Mum thanks Levi while the girls rush into the house.

"Babe, thank you so much for everything. Thank you for always making my family happy, for always making me happy. I love you so much. And everyday I keep thanking God for bringing you to me." I kiss him passionately.

"It's nothing princess. I'd do anything for you, anything to make you smile."

                           °°°°°°°°°

A lot had happened the following month I and I couldn't explain how ecstatic I was.

I finally bought a car, after Levi offered to buy me one so many times.

I finally started my own business.

Yes

I always had passion for fashion, I wanted to be a fashion designer and maybe own a clothing line.

Man's gotta make moves

We moved into the house and we were doing well.

After a long day at work, I walked to my car, placed some clothes i had to deliver the next day in my trunk and made my way home.

I was just entering the compound when I noticed that Levi's car was parked outside along with some other cars.

And I scrunched my brows in confusion.

Taking the clothes from my trunk, I walked inside and was blown away

"Surprise!" They all yelled and then some violinists started playing the happy birthday song

Shit I forgot about my own birthday

Grinning like I just won the lottery, I looked around and spot Sam and her boyfriend Jake, Levi, mum, Jamie, Jordan, sig.ra Rodriguez, Rodrigo, some of mum's friends from the restaurant she works in and lastly Louis, with a beautiful Jenny latched on his arm.

Yes as much as Louis likes to deny it, Jenny does make him happy, although he's trying to point out what he feels for her, I can tell some thing's cooking

Standing right there I couldn't be happier.

"Happy birthday beautiful" Levi walks up to me handing me a small box wrapped up and I smile

"Open it" he says and I do

In that small box holds a very beautiful diamond necklace and I smile in awe of both the necklace and the man in front of me.

He takes the necklace and I turn around while places the jewel on my neck

Turning around my eyes go wide as I find Levi crouched on one knee with a ring in his hand.

"My queen, my heart, my better half, meeting you had brought nothing but joy to my life. I can't even imagine my life without you. And yes I want my forever with no one else but you princess. Will you make me the happiest man in the world by being my wife?" he asks and I nod

" Yes! Oh my God yes!" He places the ring on my finger and kisses me passionately, only then do I feel the tears running down my face. Everyone around us cheers and we both smile turning around.

The party began and while others were having  fun, i on the other hand was busy stealing my cake, with Levi shaking his head in amusement at me.

I wouldn't trade these people for anything in the world
