S A V A Y | S U A R E Z

Today is the day. The day where God made the right decision of his entire time being who he is. The day where if this wasn't a day, Orlando would be lost without my love. Today is my fucking birthday. Not just any birthday, my GOLDEN birthday. 23, Michael Jordan type shit BITCH!

I woke up to kisses being plastered all over my face. I felt paper thrown on my face. I opened my eyes to see 100 dollar bills covering my neck and shoulders. I laughed getting up hugging Orlando as he smiled. "Happy Birthday Baby."

I gave me a long kiss, "Thank you Pa. What are we going to do today?"

"What do you want to do?" He leads me downstairs as roses and balloons filled up the couch and floor. My cheeks began to hurt from the constant smiling. Gifts took over the kitchen table along with breakfast.

"This is so sweet. I love you so much!" I cried

"Nothing that should be surprising. I spoil you almost every day. You just a crybaby." He laughed

I punched his arm, "Whatever. It's nothing wrong with showing some affection."

"You're right. But, I still need to know what you want to do."

"I actually don't know." Of course, I wanted a big party but... it's not big with only 4 people. So that was out of the question. I need to start working on getting friends since I'm worried free now that I think about it.

"Perfect. Because I have the whole day planned."

"Then why would you ask what do I want to do?"

"To see if I could fit it in the schedule. But since you have nothing, that's great for the both of us... mostly me"

I laughed, "Ok. Well let me go get dressed and we can go from there. Sounds good?"

"Perfect."

After 30 minutes of showering and choosing an outfit, Orlando sat in a dark blue suit eyeing his clock. I sat beside him as he smiled while handing me a necklace. It said

"Mi Guerrera" { My Warrior }

I gave a gentle smile waiting on an explanation of why those words. "I know you've been through hell & back. & I'm sorry that all this happened to you. Along with your father and so many deaths that you had to grieve for. But your still here, alive... being so strong and powerful. Just like a warrior. But I couldn't dare give you something that represents you without making sure you know who you belong to. So that's why it says My. Plus, it goes perfect with that tattoo of yours."

I sniffed as I put my head down from the embarrassment because I was being so emotional all the damn time. I was never like this after my family's death. I didn't shed one tear. But since I have Orlando by my side now, I'm not afraid to show emotions.

"Awn, thanks pa. Really. I love you."

We shared a kiss as he helped me up, "Trust me. It's more where that came from."

During the car ride, I grew excited realizing Orlando had a surprise for me. My adrenaline started beating trying to guess what it could possibly be. He grabbed my hand melting his fingers into mines as we sung a song until we pulled up to Tony's house.

He smiled, "The surprise is in there. But before you can step out of this car, you have to put this on." He reached into his suit pulling out a blindfold.

Typical...

I laughed agreeing to it while wrapping it around my head, Orlando began to tie it up as I slapped his hand. "You gone mess up my crimps. Be light with it."

He helped me out of the car as a hard slap came to my butt, "The real gift is coming on later tonight." I bit my lip thinking about how tonight couldn't get here no sooner.

The sound of the door creaked open as my heels clicked against the tiles floor. "Okay. On three. 1..2...3."

My eyes tried to fixed the blurriness of my vision as multiple screams came to my ears. My face grew into shock as my family came into view. It wasn't as big as it would be if everyone was still here, but it was better than nothing.

I ran and hugged my Uncle Gino as he laughed, "Surprise sweetheart. You've gotten so big." His voice cracked as tears came down my face.

"I've missed you so much Tio." He nodded while walking away to wipe his tears.

It took me about 15 minutes to hug everyone and give them an update on what's been going on with me and my life. I sat in a chair as everyone surrounded me with gifts and cameras flashing.

"I have something to say." Orlando said smiling

"Oh lord. Get the tissues, Savay about to start crying." Sydney teased

I flicked her off as everyone laughed.

"I will to start off with I and Savay wasn't the closest friends when we first met. I'll just keep it there." He laughed as I cracked a smile

"She's been hell of a rollercoaster. But I can say I'm happy to call her mines. She's outstanding, beautiful, and has been fighting her demons and insecurities day by day. I love her with all of me, and just weeks before us even becoming official, she began to call me her fiance."

My eyes widened as he bent on one knee. "I don't want to continue with the labels, without the symbols attached. This is me asking for you to trust me and wait for us to become bigger and better, even bring a baby into this world. I can say it a million times a day how I love you, but I don't think words can explain like this can."

A ring came into view as he held my hand. "Savay Suarez, I would love it if you would become a Gonzalo. To start a new repetation for us and the history of a Gonzalo. Will you marry me?"

Hiccups filled me as I nodded uncontrollably. Everyone screamed and clapped while he hugged me. I smiled realizing this was the perfect time to tell him. I yanked him down to whisper in his ear. "I'm pregnant."
