| �Hi.� �How are you?� �Fine. What the hell are you doing here Howie?� He smiled and leaned back. �I got to thinking about something tonight. Something came up with Tiffany and I gave her the choice of dealing with being second in my life or walking away. She chose to walk away. I didn�t feeling anything when she left. In fact, I haven�t felt anything for her in months. There�s only be one girl in my thoughts, in my heart, in my soul, and it wasn�t her.� �And? Why do you think I care Howard? �I know you do Theresa. I know you love me nearly as much as I love you.� I stared at him, in shock. �And? What are you going to do about it?� �This,� he said as he leaned in to kiss me. His arms quickly moved around my waist and my arms flew around his neck. He pulled away and looked at me. �I love you so much.� �I love you too.� He quickly picked up and carried me up the stairs. �Which one?� �The last door on the right.� He carried me to my room and laid me down on the bed. �Will you be mine Resa, in every sense of the word?� �Damn it, must you even ask?� �I�m just making sure Lambe, don�t want to cause any problems.� �Shut up and kiss me Dorough,� he smiled and leaned his head down to kiss me, his hand following a fake line. I woke up to noises in the kitchen. I reached over and ran into a body. �What the hell?� I thought. I sat up and noticed Howie peacefully asleep, the sheet up to his stomach. I let my eyes roam and a smirk appeared on my face. �He�s mine and no one will ever take him away,� I vowed to myself. I wrapped the sheet around my chest and heard a faint knock on my door. �Come in.� �Hey girl, I was just..woah, sorry.� �No, it�s okay, he�s fast asleep. What�s up?� �Oh me and AJ were going to the mall, would you like to go, or did you have other plans?� �No, Howie confessed his love last night. I take you and AJ finally hooked up?� �Yeah, just a matter of time.� �Sure. Let me get this thing up and I�ll be ready to go, okay?� �Sure. Later.� �Later.� I gazed down at Howie�s chest once again, and sighed. I ran my hand over it, feeling the muscles. I nearly screamed as his hand grabbed mine. �Thing?� My eyes flew to his. �Yeah, thing.� �Oh, I see, I tell you I love you and I�m nothing more than a thing.� I thought about it and smiled. �Yeah.� �That�s it, you�re going to pay for that.� Before I knew what he was doing, he flipped me on my back and started tickling me. �Come�on. Howie.� �Thing?� �Yeah, but a thing I love with all my heart.� He gazed into my eyes and stopped. �I guess I could take that.� He leaned down to kiss me. �Come on, we got to get ready.� He sighed and laid down on me. �Sure.� �Get off of me you thing.� I shoved him off of me and ran off the bed and into my bathroom. I walked along the hallway and looked at the stores that was around me. �Resa, come here girl,� Megan called out. �Girl, what are you doing shopping in a wedding dress store?� �Looking. I found the perfect dress for you. It�s over there in the corner.� My gaze followed her finger and indeed I had found my dress. It was white and purple and just how I dreamed it would be. �Wow. That is, wow.� I walked over to it and held it softly in my hands. �Megan, check this out. Isn�t this how I wanted it to be?� �Yeah. And me?� My eyes glanced up and took in the dress Megan was holding against her body. It was absolutely beautiful. I put my dress back and held onto hers. �Girl!� �What?� �I gotta get out of here before I cry. This is like a dream right? I mean, we�re not really seeing our wedding dresses are we?� �I think we are.� I glanced at Megan and we both laughed and put our dresses up. �Someday, I�ll wear that.� �As long as I don�t look stupid in the Maid Of Honor dress, I have no problem with that.� �No problem.� We giggled and walked out of the store in search of the guys. We saw them getting something at the food court. I glanced at Howie and he smiled and offered me his drink. I smiled and grabbed him around the waist. �No thanks hon.� My eyes glanced up and I saw Megan take AJ�s drink and AJ getting mad. �Megan!� �What?� �That�s mine.� �Can�t share Alex?� �Oh, I can share, just depends on what it is I�m sharing.� He grabbed her and quickly drew her in his arms and kissed her. �Later, I promise baby.� He just smiled at her and sat down at the bench. I sat back in my computer chair and reworked the chorus. �Damn it. I need AJ,� I called out. �You called my dear Resa.� �AJ, we need to finish this song. It�s killing me that we don�t have it finished yet.� �You know, I was listening to the chorus the other day, and I thought a few things and I think I know when and whom I want to sing this too.� �What do you mean?� |
