Chapter 97, Mya's Decision

 

"I think I'm gonna be sick again." Mya told Breanna as she sat in front of the hotel toilet. "So he asked you to marry him. Is that such a bad thing?" Breanna asked with a slight laugh. It had been over a year since Anna had been born and things for everyone was almost the same except for Mya and AJ. "Oh my god! He asked me to marry him!" Mya replied like it was the first time she had heard the news before getting sick again. Breanna laughed to herself as she leaned over Mya to pull her hair out of her face.

After a few minutes Mya stopped throwing up. "Feeling better?" Breanna asked with sympathy. "Yeah, thanks." Mya replied looking up to face Breanna with large,scared, sea green eyes. "C'mon!" Breanna stated as she held out a hand to help Mya up off the floor. Mya hesitated for a moment before accepting her hand. Mya stood up and looked herself over in the mirror. Standing next to Breanna, Mya smiled at their reflection and the way she towered over Breanna at 5'7. "Stop laughing. Yes you're taller than me but I can still out-sing you." Breanna teased. "Oh shut up! It's only recently that you've been able to out-sing me. I could take opera lessons if I wanted. I could also ask AJ to train me if I wanted, too!" Mya defended. Breanna laughed and shook her head at the immaturity. "No you couldn't. You and AJ would kill each other and you know it!" Breanna stated. "Yeah probably. So? What do I do?" Mya asked trying to change the subject. "You're asking me!?" Breanna asked a little shocked. "*Yes* I'm asking you." Mya stated.

"Lucky for you AJ told you to give him your answer later. Okay...let me ask you a few questions I asked myself when Howie asked me to marry him. Actually, Izabel asked herself these questions when Brian asked her and Eve asked herself the same questions when Kevin asked her." Breanna stated. "What about Natasha?" Mya interrupted. "We had *no* clue Nick was going to ask her that soon so we never prepared her." Breanna laughed. "Okay, so what are these questions?" Mya asked. "Can you live without him?" Mya thought for a moment. "I don't know. I don't want to live without him but I guess I could if something were to happen, god forbid. I just don't want to think about it. Can we move on to the next question please?" Mya pleaded causing Breanna to mentally note that Mya was too full of pride to say that she really couldn't live without AJ. "Okay, next question. Do you want to get married in general? I mean, at all during your life." Breanna searched Mya's face as she thought for a moment. "Of course!" Mya replied realizing the stupidity of the question. "Okay, third question. Who do you see yourself married to?" "I don't know." Mya replied. "Fourth question. Who else besides AJ could you marry?" Breanna fired. "No one." Mya answered. "Good. Okay last question." Mya nodded her head wanting Breanna to go on. "If you can't picture yourself with anyone else but AJ, then what's holding you back from marrying him? It'll be the same as it is now only you'll have his last name, the title of 'wife', a beautiful ceremony, and a piece of paper for legal reasons." Breanna explained. "I don't know, Bree. I guess it's just the thought of getting married. It's just scary."

"It is scary but it's easy to get used to, trust me." Breanna stated. "Trust you? You two aren't even married! You haven't even planned a wedding yet." Mya pointed out. "That's because we're in no rush. We know that we'll get married eventually and we're happy where we're at." Breanna shot back. "Uh-huh. At least Brian and Izabel finally got married. When's it gonna be your turn?" Mya asked as she washed her face with cool water. "Hello!? Brian and Izabel waited almost 4 years to get married. Howie and I have barely be engaged for a year." Breanna stated. "But Anna is almost 2. Should you two get married before she's legally allowed to get married herself?" Mya teased. "We will, we will. Chill out! I think we'll just wait until either Nick and Nat get married or you and AJ." Mya quickly looked at Breanna in shock. "No you don't! You're not going to wait for us to get married! That's just wrong, don't put the pressure on us." Mya complained. "Fine, we won't wait for you two, but you better get out there and tell AJ your answer." Breanna urged. "Okay, but only if you go with me." Mya said, sounding a little scared. "Okay, deal." Breanna replied.

Breanna and Mya walked out of the hotel bathroom slowly to see only AJ and Howie in the hotel room. "Go tell him." Breanna whispered to Mya before she walked over to Howie's waiting arms. Howie wrapped his arms around Breanna in a tight embrace as they watched Mya and AJ talk to each other in hushed voices. Before long a smile appeared on AJ's face before he pulled Mya to his body, kissing her heavily. "Maybe we should go?" Howie asked, Breanna could feel the smile in his voice as he whispered in her ear. "Yeah, let's leave before they notice we're still here." The happy couple held hands as they slowly left AJ and Mya alone.
