�She�s gone D. Everyone around her knew how she felt, even Julie. And Julie was playing off of that!� �God Nick, what have I done?� �Good question. But, you best get to steppin� to go find her.� �She�s the only one I love, the only one I could ever love.� �She doesn�t know that anymore.� �I know, I don�t prove it enough.� I typed up the story, not picking up the phone that was ringing off the hook. I let my fingers flow and the feelings just came from within�. The incident at the club happened one week ago and no word for Howie. Maybe it was over for good. I stopped typing and sighed. I picked up the phone, not even thinking of who it was. �Theresa?� I nearly dropped the phone. �Howie.� �Um, can I take you out to lunch.� �I suppose. What for?� �Just cause. Thanks, be by shortly.� Than a click and a dial tone. I stared at the phone and sighed. 15 minutes later, Howie came through my door. �Ready?� I just glanced up at him and tried not to laugh. �Yeah.� I saved my work, shut down my computer, and left. He speed down to the beach, not saying anything. I left the wind blow through my hair, enjoying it. And once we arrived, I was shocked. Spread out was a blanket, with a lot of food. Candles, wine, music, the works. He lead me over and sat me down. �What�s this?� �Lunch.� �With a romantic twist. Why?� He sighed and poured some wine. �I have a lot to explain. Let me first say, that no matter what, you are the only woman I could ever love. Now, Julie, I realize I�ve done some shit that hasn�t been the best when it comes to her. But, I don�t know, she can fog my mind. That�s why I told her to leave. If she�s going to come between the woman that I love and me, than something has to change. She wasn�t thrilled but she left. After she explained that she wanted me and would go to any lengths to get me. I found her more of fake now than ever before. I told her she could never have me, I belonged to only one person and she even agreed to walk. And next, I know in a sense, I�ve ignored you. Haven�t been the loving man you need. And I�m deeply sorry for that. It pains me to know I�ve caused you pain. But, if you allow it, I�ll spend a lifetime making it up to you.� �What do you mean?� �Theresa, I�m asking you not only to forgive me, but to be my wife,� he said, pulling out a box. He opened it and slipped the ring on my finger. It sparkled in the sunlight and I felt the tears coming. �Oh, yes Howard. I�m sorry.� He drew me in his arms and kissed my thoughts away. �You have nothing to be sorry for baby. It�s all my fault and I�m so sorry I was stupid.� �Forgiven.� I kissed him once again and just gazed in his eyes. �I�ll be forever yours, faithfully.� |
