December 20th
“Chelsea wake up!!”
“It’s Sunday, let me sleep, ” I grumble.
“Jaylyn is here!”
I ignore my dad’s voice and pull the blanket over my head. I feel someone climb on the bed and lay on top of me.
“Morning baymax, ” my best friend says while she chuckles and wiggles on top of me.
“Get off me, ” I grumble.
“I’m very comfortable, sorry.”
“Grooooooot, ” I whine.
I turn to my side making her fall off me. I turn around to face her and pull the blanket off my face.
“Morning, ” I chuckle.
She gets on her knees and pulls the blanket off me.
“Get up! Let’s go play in the snow.”
“But-”
“I will smack your butt. It’s 10 o’clock. Get up. We’re grabbing breakfast.”
I sit up and rub my eyes.
“I was up till 4, talking to Ira yesterday, ” I mutter.
“Ah Ah I thought so.”
I grab a pillow and smack her as soon as a smirk creeps up her face. I get out of bed and go into the bathroom. I take my own sweet time to freshen up and I come out wearing a robe.
“Wear those, ” she points at the clothes on the bed and leaves the room closing the door behind her.
I grab the long sleeves turtle neck sweater and pull it over me. Then I wear my checked formal high waist pant and the boots she picked out. I rub some moisturizer on my face and apply some lipstick before wrapping a scarf around my neck and leaving.
I tell my parents, “Mum, Dad, I’m going out with Jay.” And leave the house. As soon as I get into the car I open my messages.
Gooood morning my Lil pop.
I’ll pick you up @ 5 o’clock.
Surprise surprise 🥳🥳🥳🥳
“Shaun’s taking me out at five, ” I tell her.
“Dang I can’t spend one whole day with my friend and his nose starts sweating.” I chuckle.
“You can come if you want.”
“It sounds like another date not some casual hang out. So I’m not gonna intervene.”
“Shaun won’t mind.”
“Oh trust me, honey, he does. I might be his friend but he surely won’t want me when he’s tryna romance with his girl. No guy would want that.”
“True.” I chuckle.
I open my snap chat and click on the snap from cupcake. A picture of Ira and her boyfriend pops up. Ayden got his arms around her and she’s making a monkey face. I show it to Jay.
“These two are so cute I can’t get enough, ” she comments.
“Yup the cupcake and cutie-pie.”
“Still can’t believe how Shaun is okay with you having Ira saved as cupcake but not him. ”
“I have many nicknames for him too.”
“Not as much as you have for her.”
“Well, Shaun thinks I’m straight.”
She chuckles. “Only I know the truth.”
We stop at Katty’s diner and go inside. We get into a booth and order some food.
“Look at this.” She shows me a picture of her crush, Jonah. “How can one look so cute and not know it.”
” I wonder that every day.” We both chuckle at my comment.
We talk about random things and eat the waffles we ordered. Then we have some coffee and leave. We go to the park that’s opposite the diner.
“The last one to the swing is a rotten egg, ” Jay yells as we both race to the swing.
Just as I’m about to grab the blue colour swing which I sit on always, another child grabs it. I hear Jaylyn chuckle. I turn and see her already sitting on the swing.
“Cmon push, ” she says.
I go behind her and start pushing her. She goes high in the sky and comes down low and again I push her. For a while, she keeps swinging until she starts feeling nauseous and jumps down. She walks a few feet away and spreads her arms as she falls backwards. I run up to her and do the same thing we both move our hands and legs making snow angels.
“Wooohooo Sydney we are kids again, ” she yells and I chuckle.
****
Jay stands beside me as I admire her work. Her make up skills is so professional she impresses me every time. According to the occasion, she knows what to do. My thick black hair is now all silky and curly. I look at the pretty blue jumpsuit I’m wearing.
“You look beautiful, ” she says.
“All your work.”
“Now let’s take a picture and post it.”
I nod and pose for the camera. She clicks a couple of pictures and then we take a couple more selfies together. Once she had enough, we sit down and choose some pictures and she posts them on my Instagram story.
“Chels, Shaun is here, ” my mum calls.
I take my phone from her and hug her before we walk out of the room. I see Shaun standing in my living room looking as charming as always. His curly blonde hair set with gell, his muscular arms look sexy in the transparent cream shirt he’s wearing. An ash colour formal pant on his legs and a formal black shoe, all together making him look wow.
“Chelsea!” My dad’s voice snaps me out.
“Uh?”
Shaun walks up close to me and grabs my hands and kisses my knuckles.
“You look beautiful, ” he says.
“Hmm, I like what I see too.” He chuckles.
He kisses me before we bid my parents goodbye and leave.
He opens the door for me and I get into the car. I turn on the radio as he starts to drive. My phone beeps. I open up the notification on Instagram.
Looking Gorgeous girl!!
Shaun is gonna be on his knees by the night ; )
I start to blush reading her texts.
“Who dat?”
I show him the text and he chuckles.
“She’s got a point.” I slap his arm and he chuckles.
I blush even more as I read it again.
He parks the car and holds my hand as I get down. Hand in hand we walk on the sand. As we get near to the water I see many tables and chairs set on one part of the beach.
“They set an open restaurant here?”
“Thought you’ll like it.”
“This is amazing!!” I tell him.
We take a seat at one of the tables and order for some food. We talk and laugh about work and everything. After we eat Shaun takes me up for a dance. He wraps his arm around my waist and I take his hand as we sway to the music. He leans in and kisses me.
After three songs, he tells me, “Stay here. I’ll go request a song and come.”
I nod and watch him walk away. I stand in the middle of the dancing crowd and watch him talk to the DJ. Perfect by Ed Shreen starts to play and a smile creeps up on my face. He walks back to me and goes on one knee in front of me. He pulls out a velvet box from his pocket and I gasp with my hand over my mouth.
“So our parents are planning on getting us married. I didn’t want things to go in a none romantic way by you hearing from them so I thought I’ll do something special so Chelsea Henderson I know we’ve only been dating for a short spam but I really really love you. So will you Marry me and make me the happiest man on earth?”
He opens the box and shows me a diamond ring.
“Yes! Yes! I will!”
