Everyone rushed out and I quickly texted Donnie

Joe: Dude were done bring Aaliyah back

Donnie: Jen already texted me were at Starbucks getting coffee and a muffin baby was hungry and Ill have her back in like 20 minutes

Joe: Give me a hour so I can get ready

Donnie: Ready you just did everything

Joe: I wanna clean up and run down the street and grab her some flowers.

Donnie: You know she has gotten to you

Joe: What you mean?

Donnie: You werent like this ever with Monica or anyone else for that matter

Joe: I dont know man she is different

Donnie: Well I could tell you that just by spending this afternoon with her, But what do you mean?

Joe: I dont know its just different, she makes me feel different. Like everyone else wanted something from me weather it was money,the name or the connections or to just say they fucked "Joey McIntyre" she isnt like that. She has her money, her own career and didnt even care about who I was when we met.

Donnie: Want my thoughts well they are Jenny and mine?

Joe: sure

Donnie: Your in love, like actual real love not whatever that bullshit was with Monica

Joe: Why do you guys keep insisting Im in love with her

Donnie: Tell me you really dont see it

Joe: I really dont, listen I gotta get ready and go get flowers for My Liyah

Donnie: SEE right there you just called her you Liyah

Joe: OK and....

Donnie: Just sayin.. Ill see you in  a hour dude.


I just shook my head at that entire conversation D always seems to read way more into things. So what if I called her my Liyah. I grabbed my wallet and headed out the door. I tossed on a hat and some sunglasses I was just running up the block and didnt want to wait for Vic to come up. I just wanted to hurry up grab the flowers and get back before Donnie drops off Aaliyah. I quickly ran into the florist, I got lucky that no one had spotted me. I walked around looking at all the different options and I honestly would just buy them all for Aaliyah just so I could watch that beautiful smile on her face. I wandered around for a few minutes till the clerk had noticed me and walked over,

"Hi can I help you with something?"

"Ummm yeah I need flowers"

"ok well your in the right place do you have any idea what kind you would like?"

"Not really maybe roses"

"is this for a special occasion"

"no a special lady."

"Well she is a lucky woman, why dont you follow me this way and well look at some arrangements or I can make you one"

"lets do that."


It took me no time at all to have her make a arrangement for Liyah and it was simply stunning just like her.

"ok I should let you know a arrangement like this is very pricey"

"price isnt a problem lets ring it up."


I grabbed the flowers from her and it was huge and handed her my black card, I watched her look down.
