Time for an update! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chapter 32 After pizza, we sit on the couch, watching television. Soon, he picks me up, carrying me to my bed. He places me on my bed, kissing me. I wrap my arms around him, kissing him back. When he pulls back, he looks at me, nervous. "What?" I ask, watching him. "You sure you want this, Alana?" he asks me, watching my reaction. "Of course. Ben, I love you," I admit, starting to blush. "Really?" he asks. I just nod, kissing him again. He murmurs, "I love you too," onto my lips. He pulls back and pulls off his shirt, causing me to moan. He laughs and kisses me again. ~*~*~*~* I curl into Ben, falling asleep. Ben has his arm under my head, letting me use it as a pillow, while the other is around me protectively. So protectively. I never trusted my father after he started drinking. And since my mother left, I haven't wanted to trust anyone. Overall, no one's ever made me feel so safe. When I open my eyes, my alarm clock is blaring loudly. I sit up, looking for Ben. He's not in bed. Then I hear my shower going. I smile and stand, stretching. I walk over to my mirror and look at myself. I haven't looked at myself in the mirror since my dad went to jail. I didn't know that I had scars like this. Scars everywhere I've been beaten on. I walk away from the mirror, not wanting to see that again. It scares me, how much I was beaten over the years. "Hey," I hear, breaking me from my thoughts. I turn towards Ben, grinning. He has a hand holding his towel up, which is around his waist and reaches his knees. I walk to him and kiss him gently. "You were amazing," he smiles at me. "You too, love," I grin. I walk into my bathroom and take a shower. When I walk back into my room, Ben is dressed in a suit and has his graduation gown laid out on my bed. I didn't hear him leave. "You look very handsome," I smile at him, pulling out my choice dress. A beautiful black strapless, like in Ben's picture of me. I get dressed and look at myself in the mirror again. Ben joins me, smiling. We look amazing. I hear a knock at the door and walk to answer it. I smile when I see the three standing at my door. "Gen! Sera! Al!" I exclaim. "Love, your parents are here!" "You are beautiful, Alana! Just amazing!" Gen exclaims, hugging me. Ben pulls me away from her, grinning. "Don't take away my girl, Genica. Hi, Mom. Hi, Dad," he smiles, his arms around my waist. I lean into him, trying to look up at him. I hear the click of a camera and laugh. "You two are adorable!" Sera exclaims. I just smile, turning around to kiss Ben. When I do, another click of the camera. "Stop with the pictures. Later," I say, still looking at Ben. "Then let's go," Al smiles, walking outside, Sera and Gen following. Ben and I slip on our gowns and caps and head outside. We get into two cars, Gen, Sera and Al in one with Ben and I in another. We head to school, ready for graduation. After we get there and everyone gets seated, we start with the ceremony. Then there is Ben's speech, which he pulls off perfectly. "And," he adds at the end, "I have one more thing to say." He looks at me and grabs the microphone. He jumps off of the stage he is on and walks over to me. I feel my face get hot, not ready to be the center of attention. "Alana, I love you. And we have known each other for a very long time. We have been dating for shorter, but this can't wait any longer." He gets on one knee and pulls out a small box. No way. My hands fly to my mouth, covering it in shock. Is this really happening? "Alana Renee Davis, you are the most amazing girl I have ever met. This is the most important question I need to ask you. Alana, will you be Mrs. Alana Renee Colman?" he asks opening the box to reveal a breathless diamond. He just asked me to marry him? "Ben, I don't know what to say," I whisper. "Just tell me the truth," he whispers back, his words loud thanks to the microphone in his hand. "Ben..." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What will she say?
This is the update... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Epilogue I sit in the chair, my stomach getting ever so big. I hold onto Ben right hand with my left, the beautiful diamond glinting happily, reflecting my mood. I watch two young children, about seven years old, running towards me. "Mommy," the girl whines, "Brock is watching my dreams again!" "I don't mean to!" Brock counters. "Brock, what do you love or care about the most?" I ask my son. He sits there for a moment, caught off guard. Then he grins, his front teeth gone, but you can see his adult teeth popping out of his little mouth. "You and Daddy, Mommy. And my little brother or sister. And Charlotte," he grins. He hugs his sister, causing her to squeal. "Then focus about us. That's how I got over mine, sweetheart. And Charlotte, has anything like this been happening to you lately?" I direct towards my daughter. She shakes her head, still hugging her twin brother. "Tell me when and if you do. I don't want my children to go sleepless. And that includes you," I say towards my stomach. Ben just smiles and picks Brock up. "Well, little man, I think it's time for Mommy's nap," he smiles. I just nod and stand slowly. "Good dreams, Mommy. Don't let the Seer watch," Charlotte says, gripping onto my leg. I pick her up and kiss her forehead. I set her down again and head to my bedroom. I lie down, closing my eyes. "Alana, love?" I hear Ben ask. I open my eyes, watching him in the doorway. "Sweet dreams, love. I love you, Alana." "I love you too Ben," I smile. He smiles and walks out, shutting the door behind him. "And you should tell me when you start watching dreams too, baby," I say to my stomach. I get no response and close my eyes to fall asleep. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is your answer. And the end of my story. And look for my newest story: Witchery and Love! Coming soon...
