Chapter 316
Cat

“I’m afraid that all this?” I pointed a finger to the two of us and then lifted my hands up in the air. “All of this get’s rip from under me.” “Why on earth would it be ripped from under you? We’ve got you we’ve told you we love you, I’m sure we showing you we love you in what we do for you so how will this be ripped from you?” I could see Enzo had no clue what was going trough my mind. So, I took his hands in mine. “When you are brought up like I did nothing went good forever Enzo, as soon as you think you are happy and the people you are with are happy with you something happens and you get ripped from them and put in another place. That’s how my whole lives been as soon as I’m happy and I think I have my shit together something bad happens and everything get ripped from me.” “Angel we are talking children and marriage I don’t understand why you would feel like this?” “It’s just going to well.” That actually got a laugh out of him. I on the other hand didn’t think it was funny. “So, you telling me because your life is finally going well and you are in a good place you are afraid that it will just disappear and you will be back in the bodega and in that shitty apartment?” “Well, if you have to put it like that then yes that is what I think.” “Even after our talks about love, marriage and children?” He asked again. “Yes, Enzo I know I’m being irrational but that was my life so far why would it suddenly be different?”

Enzo

I couldn’t believe what she was saying. She was actually afraid we will leave her and everything we’ve been telling her for the past few months will just disappear. I fucking told her I want to marry her; I told her I want kids with her and still she’s afraid. Will she be less afraid if I ask her to marry me and then when the others come us? Will that put her mind at ease or will she still be worried that that invisible carpet will be ripped from under her feet. 

“What can I do to make you believe that this is your new life angel. That I would do anything and everything to protect you and the life we are building with the others. What will make you feel safe again?” “That’s the thing I feel too safe, I feel too happy something bad must happen that’s just life.” I was debating going down on one knee and proposed to her but I wanted to do it closer to the time the others come but then again will this put her mind at ease I don’t want her to feel like this on our whole trip and then there’s nothing romantic about just going on my knees, there is no flowers, no candles, no champagne. But then if I could put her mind at ease that this is really her life then why not. I decided fuck it; I’m doing it. I’m going to show her that nothing bad is going to happen. 

“Angel this is not how I wanted to do this or how the others want to do this but…….” She looked at me confused not sure what I’m talking about then I went down on one knee in front of her. “I know there is no fancy flowers, candles or champagne and I really pictured this differently but if I can put you mind at ease and make you believe that this is really your life then I will just do this again.” I took the ring out of my pocket; Cat was holding her hand over her mouth. “I brought you to Hawaii to propose angel, the others are flying in the weekend and then we will all propose to you but I don’t like you feeling like another shoe will drop or that the carpet will be ripped from under your feet. I want to marry you; I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I want to make you happy every single day for the rest of our lives and our kids if we have 2 or 12 the kids will all be ours and I want you to know nothing bad will ever happen to you again. So, I’m standing here on one knee in front of you asking you to marry me?” Then I popped open the box and she started to cry. I got so quickly off my knee grabbing her around the waist and holding her to me “Why are you crying?” “I spoiled everything.” “You did not, will you marry me?” She stood a bit back look me in the eyes as the tears where streaming down her face. “Yes, Enzo 1000 times yes I will marry you every single day of my life.” I took the ring out of the box and slipped it on her ring finger. “This is beautiful.” “Thanks, I designed it myself it’s a stone for each of our birthdays.” “Oh, wow Enzo.” She looked at the ring in the moon light. “This is perfect.” “Well, you can wear it for a few days but before the others come you need to take it off, they will be pissed at me for asking you before we are all together.” “I won’t tell anyone Enzo.” She threw her arms around me and hugged me she held me so tight I was struggling to breath. “You cutting of my oxygen.” I said smiling at her. “Sorry I’m just so happy.” “Happy enough to stop worrying about what can go wrong?” “I’ll always have some of that in me Enzo I mean I’ve been this way all my life but at least now I know nothing will go wrong with us, I have you.” “You don’t only have me angel you have the others to.” “I know I do. It’s just so difficult to believe, I always thought I’ll struggle to get one man to love me I mean I’m just an ordinary girl and her I have four men that loves me and wants to be with me.”  “There is nothing ordinary about you or about our situation but this is ours and this is how we want to spend the rest of our lives with you the five of us.”
