Chapter 3

She looked down at him through the tears of joy in her eyes. "Yes, I will" she said softly. He gently slipped a heart shaped diamond ring on her finger. He stood up and took her in his arms. She kissed him with every ounce of passion in her body. She gently pulled back and wiped her eyes. "I;ve never been this happy" she whispered. "Neither have I" he whispered back, pulling her closer. "I love you so much." she said. "I love you, too" he replied, kissing her lips gently. "My parents are going to kill me!" she cried. "No they won't" he said. "Yes they will" she said. "Nic, there is only 3 years between us. And we are old enough to get married" he said. "My parents have never approved of us." she said, "They think you are too old for me" "Nic, do you even want to get married?" he asked. "Yes, of course. I'm just afraid of what my parents will say." she said. "They'll be happy for us. They know we love each other" he said. "Look, 3 years ago I was dating Matt, and my parents liked him. Then we got together. They hated it.' she said. "But I love you. I want to marry you. They'll understand" he said. She kissed him. 'I don't want to talk about them anymore. All I want is to be with you." she said. He kissed her neck softly. 'I love you' she said kissing his eyelids. "I love you, too. And don't worry about your parents. I can talk them into it. Hey, I talked you into marrying me." he said. She smiled. "Liss is gonna freak" she said, "She's had a thing for you ever since we started dating." "Too bad. I'm taken." he said, smiling tenderly at her. She leaned her head on his shoulder. "I can't believe we are getting married." she said softly. "If you want we can just be engaged for a few years." he said. "Are you kidding? As soon as the tour is over I want to get married." she said. "That's in 6 months." he said. "I know. You don't leave for another month, so we can start planning it together. Then I can do the rest with my parents and yours while you are away." she said, "And of course we can do some last minute stuff together when you get home. We can go to the florist together, get the rings together, pick the hall, find a DJ or band. You don't have to be here when I get my dress, so I can do that with Mom. " "Nic, calm down, we have 6 months" he said. She threw her arms around his neck and kissed him passionately. "I'm gonna miss you so much when you go on tour" she said, gently pulling back. "I'll write everyday." he said. "And I'll call all the time" she said. "It won't be the same." he said softly, frowning. "No kisses for 5 months" she said. "No hugs, or backrubs, or all nighters for 5 months" he said. "Well, then, we'll just have to do all that stuff this month" she saaid, gently pushing him into the sand. She kneeled next to him and rubbed his back. "I love you so much" she said, smiling. He didn't respond. Nicole looked at his face and saw that he was sleeping. She laughed quietly and continued to rub his back. She stopped and snuggled into his arms and fell asleep right there.
