Chapter Eight

"You want to what AJ? Spit it out," I said, on the verge of tears.

"I want to make you my wife," he said in one short breath.

My face lit up as a huge smile appeared on my face.

"Are you serious?" I squealed.

"Yeah, completely," he answered.

"YES!" I screamed throwing my arms around his neck.

AJ sighed a breath of relief.

"Thank you so much baby," he whispered.

"I love you AJ," I gushed.

"I love you too baby," he said kissing me.

*Later*

"I love this dress," I admired the lavender, figure-fitting, long dress AJ had bought for me. It was a halter dress and a smooth silk material. I loved it! AJ had bought a white suit, complete with a white hat and he decided he was going to wear his glasses that night. I loved the way he looked in his glasses.

"I love you," AJ said wrapping his arms around my waist.

"Whoa, you guys have been acting mushy all day and not a single fight. Whats up?" Kevin asked. He had gone shopping with us and was now sitting on our couch, watching AJ and me.

"Huh?" AJ and I asked looking at him.

"Whats going on?" Kevin asked.

Obviously, we havent told him.

"What are you talking about?" I giggled.

"Dont act inocent. What happened?" he asked.

"Marissa and I are going to get married," AJ announced. Kevin nearly choked in shock.

"You're what?" he asked.

"Engaged," I said proudly.

"No way," he said.

"Dont act so surprised," AJ said annoyed.

"Well, I, uh, uh," Kevin stuttered.

"Its ok man," AJ shook his head.

"Whoa," Kevin sighed.

We all remained silent after that, not a single word was spoken. I said good-night and left AJ and Kevin in the living room to "talk". When I got into my room, I put on one of AJ's old tee shirts like I did every night and layed down in the bed. I fell into a dreamless sleep.

*Two Weeks Later*

"And the winner of Album Of The Year is, the Backstreet Boys!" Madonna announced from the stage. The boys smiled and stood up. AJ pulled me up and pulled me into a hug.

"Congragulations," I whispered.

"Thanks," he said and kissed my lips briefly and walked up with the rest of the boys. I sat down and watched contently as Nick began the speech. I wasnt really listening, until AJ went up.

"First, I want to thank God. I wanna thank my mother, the boys, management, everyone and especially my baby. I love you baby," AJ said. I smiled as I felt so much excitement build up inside me. AJ is really the one I want to spend my life with.
