How do you exactly go home at the age of 16 and explain that you are now engaged?
Is that even legal? Is it even heard of? Or was I stuck in some weird dream?

"How does it feel?" Tony asked me.
I looked down at the shiny ring on my finger
"Unreal" I mumbled, not in a bad way but more in a 'I was still shocked' kind of way.
"Your going to be a cute mom one day" he chuckled.
"You're insane" I laughed.
"It's true, once we settle down as grown ups and decide to have a family, you'll be a cute mom" he smiled.

Our fingers stayed intertwined our entire walk back home.
Oh how'd I'd miss the moments like this, the moments that even though I've gone completely insane he somehow manages to have me wrapped around his finger.

"Are you going to tell your mom?" He asked.
"Should I?" I asked.
He stayed quiet for a moment and wasn't sure how to answer back. In all honestly I was terrified to tell her...to tell anyone, they'd judge us saying were young, dumb and too in love. They wouldn't understand, not one bit. They'd call us insane and out of our minds.
"We should tell everyone" he mumbled.
"They're not going to approve this"
"Who cares? They don't know us and what we have"

Im probably going to regret this, but I agreed it was better rather than someone pointing out the ring and I end up even more busted. We were close to the house now and I was starting to mentally freak out because now I don't know how do I say that I'm engaged now? How???????
"Breathe!" Tony exclaimed, guess my thoughts really got to me.
"I'm here, by your side and I always will be...if they judge you..,they judge me" he smiled.
Nodding and smiling back I tighten the squeeze on his hand.

By now we've reached the house, and I'm growing nervous but it's better now then never.
What made it more weird was that everyone so happened to be home, and to be chilling into the living room. Tony was about to get everyone's attention but I stopped him and pulled him outside.
"What's wrong baby?" He cooed.
"We can't tell them" I hesitated to say.
"Why not?" He quizzed.
"Just don't.....they won't understand" I mumbled.
He sighed deeply but understood where I was coming room.

He softly took the ring off my finger and placed it back into the box, and I took it putting it into my jacket pocket. We both settled on the hammock, having it swing back and forth we ended up falling asleep their for what everyone said hours, my mom even took pictures. Everyone said we looked so peaceful and happy just to be with one another and they were right, that's exactly what we felt. Even if I am still questioning Annuh.

Hours pasted, and I woke up to someone playing with my hair.
"Sleep good?" He asked.
"How'd you know I was awake?" I asked.
"Your breathing changed"
"oh, yeah I slept great...you?"
"It was peaceful" he shrugged.
"Babe" I mumbled.
"Yes?"
"I love you"
"To infinity" he mumbled
"and beyond"

We walked back into the house and found fresh pizza and everyone eating.
I served Tony his food and drink then I served mines, panicking for a minute because I didn't check if the ring box had fallen out from the pocket I dashed into the kitchen but sighed in relief when I felt the box.
When I returned to the table, almost everyone's eyes were on me.
"What?" I asked.
"It's good to see you okay" my cousin smiled.
"It just took the right medication" I smiled as my eyes looked up to Tony.

In the middle of our dinner, Tony cleared his throat and announced his news about the marines.
Like me, no one suspected it, I think my mom was worried when she said it because she knew something would go wrong with me and I'm hoping she's wrong, because I really wanna be okay...even without the love of my life here.

Luckily for me Tony was sleeping over, and I was going to spend the last night with him before he leaves.
After dinner, he went to shower while I cleaned up my room a bit more, making a lot more room on the bed for us. It's weird because my parents wouldn't ever be okay with a boyfriend sleeping over, so what made it okay with Tony? That I will probably never know.

When Tony was out the shower, I went in myself.
The soap and hot water stinging my wrists but for once it was the bad stinging, it actually hurt and irritated my skin...was I finally healing? Was I finally going to be okay?

Dried and and changed into fresh loose clothes, I went to join Tony on the bed.
He was playing music on his phone while playing a game, he opened his arm to allow me to lay my head on his chest as I watched him play.
"Wanna try?" He asked.
"No I just like watching you" I said.
"Your hair smells good"
"You smell good"
"I smell like a girl" he muttered.
"Gee I wonder why" I chuckled.

While Tony played his game, I turned on the tv to watch my favorite show The Vampire Diaries.
(Don't judge me! I love that show! Who else digs TVD? No one? Okay -sad face-)
Being so intrigued in the show I didn't notice it was about two in the morning.
"So what happens next?" Tony asked.
I chuckled and looked up at him, "you were watching?"
"It got interesting" he shrugged trying not to smile
"I was going to stop watching it actually"
"Good" he smiled.
"How's that good?" I quizzed
"Cause I just wanna be a hopeless romantic with you" he smiled as he landed a kiss on my cheek.
