" Well, Nick. I really don't want to rush into things. Let me sleep on it alright?"
Nick sighed but smiled. " I'll let you sleep on for as long as you need. Eight hours enough?" I laughed and stood up.
" Hungry?"
" Anastasia...you can't keep me-"
" Nick, I'll let you know tomorrow."
"Which is in an hour."
" Tomorrow as like not before noon."
" Fine and yes I'm hungry."
"Aren't you always?" I asked poking his stomach
" Hey!" I went into the kitchen.
After about and hour and half of watching TV and talking Nick went home. I ended up falling asleep on the couch.
Next Morning
Around 9 AM I woke up and found Samantha watching TV and eating cereal " Hey."
" Blah." I muffled. I wasn't a morning person.
" Come on its nearly 9:30 you're going to waste the day doing nothing?"
" Uh huh." She reached across me to get a magazine. "Whoa wait a minute!" I said grabbing her hand. She started laughing. "He finally asked?" Still giggling she nodded her head. Then at the same time...
" AHHHHH!" We jumped up and hugged each other.
" Oh my gosh, I am so happy for you Sam!" Keith came out into the living room rubbing his eyes.
" Did you have to tell her before 11?" He asked flopping himself on the couch.
" Keith, I am sooooo happy for you big bro!" I gave him a hug. "When's the wedding? Oh can I be your maid of honor? What kind of cake are you-"
" Easy there Stace. Calm down." Keith laughed.
" I'm sorry, I'm excited for you."
" Yeah yeah so when are you and Nick getting married?"
I was quiet. " We're not even going out yet."
" Yet? Did I just hear a yet in there Samantha?"
" I believe you did." They were sitting together on the couch with eyes on me.
" Yeah you did, Nick asked me to be his girlfriend last night."
" And you haven't said yes yet?"
" No, I want to keep him waiting. In suspense ya know?"
" You're so mean."
" I know! I told him I wouldn't tell him before noon today."
" That's rough man. You can't do that to a guy."
" Yes I can." I smiled. " Well, I'm gonna go shower and dress. Congrats to you both." I gave them both another hug and ran up the stairs.
Later on that day I was talking on the phone with Trisha.
" I still can't believe your making him wait."
" Yeah well what can I say? Well, I do have a question. What's going on with you AJ?" She started giggling.
" Ahhh well, I think I'm in love."
" Come on now. You just like met him."
" Almost a month ago! He's so funny, he's a romantic, he can sure dance and he's damn fine girl!" I laughed then heard a beep.
" Hey Trish, what time is it?"
" Exactly 12 o'clock why?"
" Cause I have a beep and I know its Nick haha."
" OK, go make the big baby his news."
" Ha ha, ok, later hun." ::Click:: " Hey Nick."
" What? How did you know?"
" Cause I'm good like that, and well it's noon."
" Oh haha yeah, so what's new?"
" Nothing, just got off othe phone with Trish. Oh and guess what?!"
" What?!"
" Keith and Sammy are getting married!"
" Oh...that's great!"
" I know, I'm so happy for them. He really deserves this."
" Well, I'm glad that makes you happy."
" Thanks, it really does. So what's up?"
" Well...um...yeah its noon ya know."
" And your point?"
" You see, last night, remember-"
" Go on, spit it out."
" Will you?"
" Will I what?"

" Come over and I'll you my answer. I think it would be better if I told you in person." I told him with no enthusiasm in my voice.
