Old Feelings Return

"Yeah are you" he asked trying to hide the disappointment in his voice.

She placed her palm on his cheek as she asked "Are you okay? Is something wrong?"

"Yeah, I'm fine, let's just go out today, spend some well needed time together."

"Yeah, I'll go get dress."

She happily ran off and he felt if Stephanie was going to go on by her relationship maybe he should do the same.

At about 6:00pm Stephanie and Tommy and Tony were at this very expensive dinner table they were all dressed elegant in this restaurant. Tommy hated Tony and was playing his hand held GameBoy as they all sat at the table and Tony spoke first "How have you two been?"

"We've been fine, What about you? How was your trip to New York?" she asked looking over at Tommy and then back at Tony.

"It was good but Steph I-"

"Please Tony don't call me that cause-"

"Yeah only Kevin can call her that" Tommy said looking up only a quick second from his game and then Tony turned back to her.

"I am sorry Tony finish" she said hoping to make him feel better.

He cleared his throat and said "Stephanie I've really been thinking, we have been together 2 and half years and I love you and Tommy and I'm 29 and I'm ready to settle down and start a family."

She smile happy with his words "Me too and I love you too."

Tommy let out a loud groan and they both looked over at him and he was still into the game and then they turned back to one another as he Tony said "Well move to New York with me."

And her surprised "What?!"

"And marry me"

He pulled black velvet ring box out his pocket and he always joked around with it she asked "Are you serious Tony?"

He kneeled down in front of her looking up into her eyes as he said "Yes, I want to start a family with you and Tommy with me in New York. Will you marry me?"

He opened the box which held this engagement ring with huge diamond on it which seemed to sparkle and her now very nervous chocked out "Tony I have to think about this"

Tony just hugged and kissed her and Tommy just sat there in disbelief as Tony pulled away and said "But we have to get married in a few months"

She pulled away further "Why so quickly?"

"I don't like long engagements but baby I promise this will be the wedding you've always dreamed of I promise."

All she could think of to say was "Well...um okay." as she hugged and kissed him again.

Kevin and Tiffany had had a great day together. They were sitting at home now on their couch and she was wrapped up in his arms as she said "I really had fun today."

"Me too, You acted like your old self, I felt I got my baby back."

She laughed a little looking up into his eyes "Really"

"Yep"

She turned the TV off and and turned and sat up on him and they started to kiss and she started kissing his neck and chest as she said "You love me don't you"

"Yes"

"Why haven't you told me?"

"I have Tiff"

"No." she sat up looking in his eyes "I say I love you and you always say me too."

He knew she was right as he said "I'm sorry Tiff I-"

"It's okay, I know you've been in some messed up relationships and even dealing with me breaking your heart and I respect that so it's okay"

"Thank you that means a lot"

"You're welcome, now lets stop talking." she kissed him "I know you love me, I know you do." she said as she kissed him once more.

Nick sat at home miserable cause Lisa was out of town. He really missed her when she was away but he was also happy cause she was due back that night. She came in happily in a baggy jogging suit, her hair in a messy ponytail, she put her bag down and went into the den and he was on the couch asleep holding a stuff animal in his arms that she'd gotton him, she sat next to him.

"Nicky" she shook him "Nicky baby, wake up I'm home sweet heart."

Sleep still deep in his voice as he slowly opened his eyes "I missed you."

"I missed you too."

He sat up and kissed her as he said "Don't ever leave okay."

"You're acting like a baby"

"You said I was your baby"

"You are"

"Well after you shower and stuff you'll fix me something to eat" he kissed her "Thank you, I love you." he said as he laid back down and she laughed and walked out the room.
