I'm Going To Marry Her by By: zzmbrashear (read book TXT) 📖

weeks I didn’t go out as much. I got a few e-mails from her and she asked stuff like how have I been and that she is worried about me. She said she missed me and that she didn't mean to hurt me. How could she do this to me. I decided I would go to Florida. I always wanted to go because my brothers and sisters moved there when my father died a few years back. They say it gets really hot there but any other time is so beautiful.

CLAIRE'S POINT OF VIEW
“Claire, what are you waiting for? You love him. You know he gets on a plane in a hour to go to Florida. Its most likely that he wont come back. This is your last chance.” My best friend Elizabeth told me while we were sitting at her house.
“I know and I want to but I already lied to him about being married. How could he trust me again?” I said. I really liked Zak but every time I’m in a good relationship I mess it up and I didn’t want to hurt Zak so I spared him early.
“I saw the way he looked at you. He loves you. Go catch your man.” She said and I went to go and find him but I heard her say as I went out the door, "God knows there's not many of the good ones." That made me laugh.
I love the way Zak’s eyes look in the moonlight and that kiss. The way his body was so warm. I didn’t want to take a breath but I screwed that up. Why did I lie to him? I went to his house but he wasn’t there. He must have already left. I tried to beat him to the air port but I saw him so close to the plane. I screamed his name and he heard me. He saw me and dropped him bags.I ran to him.
"Clair?" He asked as I jumped into his arms. He picked me up off the ground.
“I couldn’t let you leave.” I said pulling away.
“What would your husband say?” He said turning his head towards the plane.
“I lied.” I told him.
“What?” He said turning my way again.
“I’m not married. I lied. Every time a relationship is going good for me I always mess it up. I wanted to let you off easy. I really like you and couldn’t hurt you and to see you leave me would make me die inside.” I told him but I couldn’t say anything else before he ran up and game me another hug.
“I would never leave you. I thought about you everyday. When I was sad, mad, or when something didn’t go my way I looked at the picture of you because you make me happy and your everything I could ever want.” He said and then looked at my face.
“Really?” I asked.
“Yes. I love you.” He said.
“I love you too. I’m so so sorry.” I told him.
“Just forget about it. Its in the past, okay? Now its just me and you. Nothing else.” He said and I don’t know what about he said was reassuring but it was. We got to know more about each other. Year after year we grew more in love with each other.


ZAK's P.O.V.
~~~~

Its now been three years since we've been together. We are still madly in love. We took a walk down a little road tonight. We had already eaten dinner. We've lived together for a year now. Clair loves walks. She absolutely loves to be outside. She put on her white coat and brought her green bag. She carried her umbrella because it looked like it was going to rain. I looked down at her brown high heeled boots. I laughed at her style. I wore my black coat.
As we walked down over the bridge I thought it was the perfect time. I looked at her in her grey hat. She smiled her cute smile. I looked out over the water running under the bridge. The wind blew and made the smell of lavender fill the air. I stopped as I heard the pitter patter of the rain on the umbrella. She looked at me and I got down on one knee. My knee was soaked as the water drained off the bridge and got on my knee. She covered her mouth knowing what I was going to do.
"Claire, will you marry me?" I asked.
"Yes!" She shouted and dropped her umbrella. She ran into my arms and I almost fell over. She kissed me and I fell in love all over again. I was proud of myself at how I planned it. A few months later Claire found out she was pregnant. I didn't know what to do. I didn't know if I was happy or not. Well, of course I was happy because she was happy but was I really ready to be a father? The nine months of waiting was excruciating. Claire became so needy and I tried to help but sometimes it was just so over whelming. I loved Claire to death but I don't know how this was going to work.
When it was time for the birth I was in love as soon as I saw her little cheeks. She came out with a head of blonde hair. She was 7 pounds 3 ounces. We named her Danielle Joy McKinley. She is a smart beautiful baby. My baby girl is so beautiful. I play with her every chance I get. I watch her when Claire is in work. Danielle is very smart. After about 7 or 8 months she started talking and she was walking even before that. Her hair darkened real fast. She has curly light brown hair and hazel eyes. Her eyes. The most beautiful I've ever seen, well of course aside from Claire's. She has a button nose and couldn’t be more cute. She is the ideal daughter. I wonder what she will be like when she hits 13. Now that's another story to tell.
