chapter six
One week later
Danielle and Kim are in Orlando, while the guys are on a media tour for a week. The girls are staying at the guys� houses.
�Kimberly I�m scared about having this baby.� Danielle said.
�You�ll be fine�JC is going to be the one who�s scared when he sees that epidural needle. You�ll have to keep an eye on him.�
Danielle laughed. �Yeah, really.�
�When he faints.�
She laughed again. �Okay�seriously though. I�m only 22 years old and I�m having a baby and I�m not even married. I always thought I�d get married then have a baby.�
�You and JC should get married.
�I don�t even know if he wants to.�
�Of course he does. What about that ring he gave you?�
�Well yeah, that was only a promise ring. And he did say that day he wanted to marry me someday.�
�See, there you go.�
�Okay, maybe. I feel a little better.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
JC ran into the hotel room where the rest of the guys were. �Hey guys, help me out. I want to purpose to Danielle. How should I do it?� he asked.
When JC stormed into the room he didn�t know Justin had Kimberly on speakerphone.
�OHHH�MY GODDDD!� Kimberly screamed.
�Who�s on the phone?� JC asked.
�Kimberly.� Justin said.
�Oh gosh, Kimberly you can�t say anything.�
�Okay, I won�t. You better be glad I wasn�t Danielle.�
�I know. But you gotta help me too Kim, okay?�
�Okay.�
�Guys what should I do? How should I do it?�
�I know exactly what she wants.� Kimberly said.
�Go ahead.�
�Have it at home, at your place. Decorate the house with candles, like make a path through the house and since you have that gazebo in your backyard, lead the candles out there. And have the gazebo decorated with candles and have white Christmas lights hanging on it�.and you can be waiting there for her with the ring in your hand and single red rose. There you go, do it like that.�
�DAMN!� All the guys said
�Where did you come up with that?� JC asked
�I didn�t, Danielle did. She�s given it a lot of thought.�
�You want me to do that for you baby girl?� Justin asked
�No�if I ever get married, I want my man to think of something himself�um�*cough*�hint, hint.� She said
�Thank you Kimberly, that�s perfect.� JC said
�No problem.�
�Talk to you later baby girl.� Justin told her.
�Okay, bye guys!� Kimberly said then hanging up the phone.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Since the guys were gone for the week. Danielle stayed at JC�s and Kimberly stayed at Justin�s house.
One night Danielle and Kimberly were on the phone together. Since they had never been to the guys� houses before they were checkin� them out, snooping around.
�I think this is Justin�s room�yep smells like him.� Kimberly said
Danielle laughed. �Damn, JC has his own grand piano here�aw and he has a gazebo in his backyard.�
Kimberly lightly laughed. She continued searching through Justin�s closet. She found a box in Justin�s closet and it was to her. She opened it.
Danielle found a box also. She lifted the cover off of the box.
�Aww!�
At the same time Kimberly said, �DAMN!�
�What?� They both said wondering what one another found.
�What�d you find?� Danielle asked
�What�d you find?� Kimberly asked.
�I found a little baby t-shirt that says �You think I�m cute, you should see my Daddy!� and the other one says �Daddy�s Lil� Girl��aww he thinks it�s going to be a girl.� Danielle said about to cry.
�How cute.�
�Ok�what did you find?�
�I found a box in Justin�s closet to me, guess what it is?�
�What?�
�Some sexy lingerie�.God, how the hell am I supposed to put this on?�I might as well wear nothing�cause this is almost�nothing.� She said holding up the lingerie, looking at it.
Danielle laughed. �Oh my god, Justin is crazy.�
�Ok, where are his sex toys.� Kim said
Danielle laughed even harder.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
2 days later.
JC and Justin came back to Orlando for a few days to spend with their girlfriends. JC was going to propose to Danielle that night.
Danielle sat in JC�s huge bedroom on his bed watching TV on the flat screen. The phone rang.
�Hello?�
�Hey D, what you up to?� Kimberly asked
�Nothin� much, you?�
�We should go out to dinner tonight.�
�Why?�
�Because�we should hang out. Girls� night out. Dress up all nice and pretty.�
�We hang out all the time.�
�Danielle!�
�Fine! Ok! I�ll go�dress fancy?�
�Yes, I�ll pick you up at 6:00 sharp.�
�Ok I�ll be ready.�
�Okay bye.� Kimberly hung up the phone. She looked at JC. �All set, we�re going at 6�we�ll stay till about say 9, that enough time?�
�Perfect, thank you!� He pulled her into a hug, kissing her forehead.
�Hey she�s mine, she�s off limits.� Justin said
�Oh shut up man! Danielle is going to be my wife and we�re going to have a baby! This is perfect.� JC said excited, jumping up and down.
�What if she says no?� Justin said
JC stopped. Looking at him. �Don�t say that�don�t say that again. She�s going to say yes�isn�t she?� He looked at Kimberly.
�Yes she is�don�t listen to him. She loves you. If she says no I�ll kick her ass�after she has the baby.� Kimberly said
JC and Justin laughed.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Kimberly came to pick up Danielle at 6 and they left right away. Shortly after they were gone, JC went inside his house and began to decorate it, with a little help from Justin, for the proposal.
He finally finished and he said goodbye to Justin and went to take a shower. He put on his very nice black tux. Just was he was walking downstairs the phone rang.
�Hello?� He said anxious.
�We�re on our way, she�s in the ladies room right now. We�ll be there in like 10 minutes. You ready?�
�I think so.�
�You�ll do fine, just be cool. Don�t bail out now�it�s too late.�
He chuckled.
�Got to go. Bye.� She hung up the phone. JC walked to the kitchen and grabbed a single long stem rose from the vase. He checked his pocket for the ring, it was there. He walked outside to the gazebo.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
�God I�m so exhausted.� Danielle said walking into the house about to take her shoes off. She looked up seeing the house filled with candles. �Oh�my�god.� She whispered.
She started to walk along the path of candles leading through the house. Reading the little notes here and there that JC left. Telling her how much he loved her and he couldn�t wait for what was to become of their future.
She reached the backyard. Looking outside seeing the gazebo decorated with Christmas lights and candles everywhere. JC was standing in the middle of the gazebo, looking more gorgeous than ever in his tux. As soon as she saw him she knew what was coming. She was so happy and excited, but at the same time nervous and scared. She was walking towards her destiny.
She walked up the steps of the gazebo. Looking at JC, she smiled.
�Hi.� She said quietly.
He chuckled. �Hi�you look beautiful.� He kissed her cheek, �This is for you.� He handed her the rose.
�Thank you.�
�Ok here we go Chasez. Go for it!� He thought to himself. He kneeled down on one knee, holding her hands. He looked up at her.
�If you still don�t know what I�m doing�I don�t know why I�m really doing this�but never mind that.� He licked his lips, taking a deep breath. �Danielle, every moment I�ve spent with you has been a blessing. I knew when I first saw you, you were someone special�through all the good times and bad, you�ve been there for me and I�ll always be there for you. Being as strong as you can for yourself to survive. You�re the strongest woman I�ve ever known, physically and emotionally. You have the biggest heart and the most kind. I never thought I�d find someone as good for me as you are and make me feel as good as you do. When I found out that you were pregnant, I was the happiest man on this earth. To have created this life growing inside of you, together is the best feeling�� He kissed her stomach. She smiled. Crying openly as she looked down at him. He looked back up at her. �I can tell you anything and I feel so comfortable when I�m with you�I want to spend the rest of my life with you, I can�t wait to raise our baby together�which I think is going to be a girl.� She softly laughed. �You�re my soul-mate, my meant to be�will you marry me?� He slipped the ring on her finger. She smiled even bigger. She nodded her head. �Yes I will.� He stood up and kissed her deeply. Holding her, pulling her close in his arms.
�Oh my gosh! I�m so glad that�s over with. I was so nervous.� He whispered into her ear.
She laughed. �Oh my god, I�m so surprised.� She looked at him. He wiped away the tears from her eyes.
�That�s the whole idea right?� He smiled
�I love you so much.�
�I love you too sweetheart.� He kissed her again.
�OMG! I have to go call Kimberly and tell her.� She grabbed JC�s hand and dragged him with her.
�She already knows I was doing this.�
�Really? So did everyone but me know?�
�Pretty much.�
�Surprised someone didn�t slip.�
�Me too.�
She dialed Justin�s number, Kimberly picked up.
�Tell me she said yes!� She said
�I said yes.� Danielle said laughing.
�YES!� Her and Justin yelled.
�Wanna know where JC got that whole candles and gazebo idea from?�
�You?�
�Yep, I told him your dream proposal.�
JC and Justin laughed.
�It looked familiar�Justin want me to tell you Kimberly�s?�
�Yes.� He said
�NO!� Kim said, �Shut up Danielle. Now you and JC go get giggy with it and we�ll talk to you tomorrow.�
�Bye.�
�Bye.� Danielle hung up the phone. She looked at JC, he had a smile on his face.
�Wanna go?�
�Yeah, let�s go.� They ran upstairs together.
