Yonna and Adonis land at JFK airport and head back to Adonis's place as they get in Donnie's car.
"I didn't want to leave Vegas Donnie.."
"Me neither babe"
"So when did you wanna announce our engagement?"
"Whenever you are ready"
"Yea I have to call my mom she doesn't mess with social media like that..I wanna tell her first"
"She would be excited that we are getting married"
"I know..she likes you"
"I am charming aren't I?"
"Yes you are my hubby to be"Adonis blushes at Yonna "And you talk about me blushing you do the same thing"
"I do you caught me..I cant help it when you're around me"Yonna reaches across the seat and kisses his cheek while he was driving and gave her a quick peck as they were at a red light. As they head into Adonis home, Yonna walks in and goes straight to the couch"Ugh.. I hate jet lag.. I'm more tired than ever"
Adonis sits next to her "Yea it got me too lets lay down for a little bit"
"I can't move off the couch"
"Me either how about sleep here?"
"Yea sounds good"Yonna scoots down and lays her head on Adonis chest as he leans towards her and pecks her forehead as they both doze off to sleep. Two hours later, Adonis gets a call from Rocky that he needs to meet him at the gym to train. He wakes up Yonna by tapping her shoulder "Baby I'm meeting up with Roc wanna come with me?"
"Yea sure"
"Can you be ready in ten minutes I still need to wake up"
"Yea..Donnie?"
"What's up baby?"
"Are you sure you wanna marry me?"
"Yes of course I do..why would you say something like a that? I love you Yonna don't doubt our relationship because what Terrence did to you I'm not him"
"I'm sorry I asked that..he mentally broke me Donnie..but like a superhero you saved me from it and now we are finally together"
"I'm never letting you go..we are together forever"
"Together forever"Yonna kisses him and gets up to change into something more relaxing.
Yonna and Adonis both head out to the gym to meet Rocky. They drive up and get out going inside where Rocky is hitting the bag. "Hey you two still recovering like I am from Vegas?"
"Yea Roc I'm good now so what are we doing today?"
"Training as always Donnie..I understand you were not focused this past weekend and you have a rematch in two months to get your belt back so..intense training and Yonna sweetheart..you can throw some punches on this bag"
"Huh?"
"I seen the way you swinged at Terrence and Bianca and I was impressed"
"I'm not a fighter Roc..only if I have to"
"I know but you can always punch a bag like I'm doing now to make your punches stronger"
"Yea only if I need it to knock Terrence out.. three times the charm right?"
Rocky and Adonis laugh at Yonna and realize it was funny too as she laughed at them and headed to get some boxing gloves and wrapping tape for Donnie. As she gets the gloves, she watches Donnie using the jump rope to get warmed up and she went towards him
"Here's your gloves baby"
He stops jump roping and pecks her cheeks "Thank you baby"He gets in the ring and practices his hits as Yonna and Rocky looks on"So Yonna, you and Donnie huh had a fun filled weekend?"
"Yea we did..Roc we have to tell you something I want Donnie to tell you too"
"Uh oh.."
"No no it's good Roc believe me"
"Okay Donnie.. take five..what do you have to tell me"
"Tell you what?"
Yonna looks at Adonis and read her lips "Engaged"
"Oh yea Roc.. me and Yonna are getting married"
"No shit! seriously?"
"Yea I asked her to marry me in Vegas"
"Congratulations you guys"Rocky hugs Yonna and Adonis comes down and hugs him"Proud of you son.. you got a good woman here"
"I do Roc love her to pieces"
"Alright lover boy get back in the ring..youhave a lot of practice to do"After Adonis training, him and Yonna head to Sylvia's to eat. "I'll never get tired of this place Donnie" "Me neither..you know we first met here and now we are about to be husband and wife"
"Yea I'm a matter of months but I wanna know something..were you attracted to me when we first met?"
"Not gonna lie, I couldn't keep my eyes off you I kept my cool though"
"Uh huh..well I thought you were handsome and attractive but at the time you were taken"
"I know but we are here now together"
"Yea we are baby.. plus I'm starving"
"Always hungry girl.. let's get you fed"As they finish eating, they head to Adonis car and heads back to his place. "Donnie, we haven't talked about me moving in yet"
"We haven't how about this..move in with me this week I can pay your apartment off whatever you have left on it"
"Okay I mean my lease is almost up anyway and I'm mostly at your house so it makes sense"
"It does..I can help you pack I gotchu"
"Okay I guess I'll start packing"When they arrive at Adonis's home, they go in and sit on the couch as Adonis yawns and puts his arm around Yonna
"What a day I'm tired I'm gonna take a nap"
"Okay I'm not really tired I'll watch some tv for a while"
"Baby I'll be in the room if you need me"
"Okay"Adonis heads to the bedroom to take a nap while Yonna heads in the kitchen and gets a water bottle. The doorbell rings "Who is it?" Nobody responds. As she opens the door, a man dressed up in a suit gives Yonna a paper "Ms. Yonna Woods, you have been served"
"Da fuck! for what sir?"
"It's on the paper Ms. Woods.. have a good day"Yonna opens up the paper and it's from Terrence's lawyer for assault with him and Bianca in Vegas and blackmailing them.
Yonna screams loudly that woke up Adonis as he ran out of the bedroom "Whats wrong baby?"
"Terrence that's who..I just got served papers"and he grabs the paper reading it
"That son of a bitch!! why would he serve papers we have enough evidence on him.. I'm sick of this shit!"
"I am too D.. I go to court next Wednesday.. I'm so tired Donnie" as she holds back her anger and tears
"I know baby.. we have to fight this don't worry.. he's not gonna win""Why can't he leave us alone Donnie he is crazy as fuck"
"I don't know why he is targeting you when he did wrong.. I'm gonna be right there with you baby"
"I know D.. why can't we have peace.. he can't let go of me"
"Sounds like he's obsessed with you"
"Well I'm going to kick his ass again cuz you know a restraining order isn't gonna do nothing"Yonna didn't know what to do anymore. She regretted even dating Terrence now but she cannot fix the past. She had to fight to get her peace back.
