Chapter 53 Proposal
Chloe Regens
“You want to go out?” I asked Nic disbelief.
“Yeah, what’s wrong with that?” He asked raising his eyebrows.
“Nic, it’s 11 o’clock. Can we go tomorrow?” I asked and he shook his head.
“Wear something warm and let’s go out.” He said that and he walked our from my room. I found myself dragging my feet to my closet. Find warm cloths and changed into it.
I walked out from my room and found Nic was talking to my dad. I walked down and I saw my dad lend him his car. Nic saw me and gestured me to walked fast. I bid my parents goodbye and I followed Nic out. He already got into my dad’s car and I got in.
“Where are we going?” I asked.
“Just wait and see Chloe.” He smiled and drove out from my house. I started to turn on my christmas music on the go. So excited.
“Ohh yeah.. I forgot to tell you that this New Year my family has a plan to go to Maldives! Let’s join them!” I said to Nic.
“Okay.. we can join them but the whole family will come?” He asked.
“Yes.. we always go somewhere once a year Nic and this year’s destination is Maldives.” I said and he nodded.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
“Does a guy sometimes bully a girl because they like them?” I asked Nic since he’s a guy.
“It depends Chloe, there are guys like that because they’re trying to get the girl’s attention but there are guys who really wants to bully her because it’s fun.” He answered.
“Ohhh nice answer Nicholas, have you experience that?”
“To you little kid.” My eyes widen and I turned to him.
“You didn’t realise that I bullied you? Man.. I was mocking you kid all the time.”
“So you like me all this time?” I smiled.”
“Maybe.” I hissed because his answer.
“We’re here.” He announced as he parked the car. My eyes glued to the big christmas tree inside. I got out from the car and looked up to the christmas tree.
“Let’s go kid.” Nic took my hand and we walked in.
“Oh my gosh..” I’m speechless.
There’s an ice rink inside the building and it’s empty. The Christmas tree was placed in the middle of the ice rink. I can’t believe we’re going to ice skating. I smiled widely.
“Aww how did you find this place?”
“Of course I know.. I’m Nicholas Lemiere.” He said cocky and I rolled my eyes.
“Let’s get in there.@ He said and we put the shoes, gloves and safety gear. I walked in first and skate first.
“Having fun alone?” Nic joined and I held his hand, we skate around the rink and having fun.
“Did you rent this place?” I asked as I stand in front of him. Holding his hands and looked up to him.
“You can say that.. Why? You don’t like it?” He asked.
“I like it Nic, this is so beautiful. I haven’t been skating since forever.” I said.
“So I deserve a kiss?” He asked, I pulled his coat and put my lips to his. Kissing him passionately and his hand pulling me close to him.
“Wait here” He suddenly said, he skate out from the rink and go somewhere. I skate alone first and having fun by myself for awhile.
Suddenly I heard a piano being play, I turned to find where the voice comes. I turned to see Nic playing a piano. I smiled widely and skate near him.
He looked at me and smiled.
“A hundred and five is the number that comes to my head. When I think of all the years I wanna be with you. Wake up every morning with you in my bed. That’s precisely what I plan to do.” He started to sing.
“And you know one of these days when I get my money right. Buy you everything and show you all the finer things in life. Will forever be enough? so there ain’t no need to rush. But one day I won’t be able to ask you loud enough” He continued as he played his piano.
“I’ll say, “Will you marry me?”. I swear that I will mean it. I’ll say, “Will you marry me?”.” I just realized that this is Jason Derulo’s song – Marry Me.
Nic sang the whole song until someone took over the piano for him. He walked to the border between the ice rink and the floor. He smiled to me taking out a small gold box. He opened it revealing a beautiful diamond ring.
“Thankyou Chloe for coming into my life, being the greatest thing that happen to me ever since I lost my family. Thankyou for making my life better and better each day. Giving me a lot of things that I’ve miss all this time.”
“Thankyou for giving me so much love and care, even though I pushed you away at first but you break me slowly until I can’t hold it anymore. You make me happy and I’ve never been this happy before and you are the person I want to be until my last breath.” Tears fell from my eyes and I quickly wiped it.
“Life won’t be easy but I promise you I will be beside you ready to hold you when the ups and downs of life comes to us. I will never hurt you and I promise I will make you happy.”
“I want you to be with me for the rest of my life, go travelling together, make breakfast, go swimming, go exercising, washing my car even though it will be a lot of mess.” He smiled and I found myself chuckling.
“Now.. Do you want to spend your life with me Chloe Regens? Let’s have a lot of little Lemieres around the house. Marry me and let’s be happy.” I can’t contain my joy about this.
“Yes Nicholas Lemiere.. I’ll marry you!” I answered and he smiled widely. He reached for my arm and pulled me for a kiss. We both kiss passionately and I felt the air around me were hot as sauna. He put the ring into my left ring finger.
“I never thought you can play a piano.”
“I play piano and guitar since I was a kid Chloe.” He smirked.
“Stop giving me that smirk and come down here.” I gestured, he laughed and walked into the ice rink.
“So tell me your punishment love?” I asked as I skate backwards.
“Who tell you that? Rose isn’t it?” He asked and I shrugged.
“Tell me Nicholas Lemiere.. have you do it?”
“Yes.. now give me a hug. Why are you keep skating backwards?”
“Tell me what is it and I’m all yours bad boy.” I said.
“Combination of all of my friends punishments. I do it all and add burning our agreement 13 years ago.”
“When did you do all of it? Is it impossible to do it in one day?”
“Do you remember when I went home from work at 12 for 3 days? That’s where I do the punishment.”
“You don’t have bruise on your face.”
“Not my face but my whole body.. Remember when you keep begging me to go swimming but I didn’t want it? That’s because my body is full of bruises.” He’s unbelievable.
“You just make me love you more.”
“Don’t be a kid and come hug me!” He gestured me to come to him.
“You’re marrying this kid asshole!” I hissed and he laughed. I skate towards him.
“I love you Chloe.”
“I love you too Nicholas Lemiere and.. Merry Christmas.” I said as I saw the clock turn to 12.
“Merry Christmas too Chloe.” He crashed his lips to mine.
