Misadventures
Bulletproof Love
After a week I got to go back home, and Tony was curious who Shelby was.
“She's this woman I met at a park.” I replied.
“Oh.” He replied.
“So what about Tyler?” I asked. “What happened to him?”
“He was arrested, finally.” He replied.
“Good.” I said.
“I'm glad you're okay.” He told me.
“My love for you is bulletproof.” I told him.
“But I'm not the one who shot you.” He said.
I looked down, unpacking my things.
“So we're going by Vic's lyrics now?” I asked with a laugh.
“No.” Tony said with a smile.
“Hey, I have to go, I have somewhere to be.” Tony said.
“Where do you have to go?” I asked.
“It's a surprise.” He said.
Tony left and I started cooking while watching 'Cheaters'. If it was two shows the guys and I watched, it was 'Cheaters' and 'Ghost Adventures'. I was glad when Jaime came over.
“Hey, Jaime!” I said, hugging him.
“Hey, Carolina!” He replied, hugging me back.
“How are you feeling?” He asked me.
“Better, much better.” I replied.
He sniffed around and went into the kitchen.
“Empanadas? You. Are. Awesome.” He said.
I giggled. “Well thanks. But you can't have any yet, you have to wait for Tony, and do you know if Mike and Vic are coming over today?” I asked.
“I don't think so, I think their spending the day with their parents.” He replied.
“Aw, that's sweet.” I said.
Tony finally came back and rushed to our room.
“Tony, what are you doing?” I asked.
“Nothing. I have something I need to take care of!” He said.
I chased him to the bedroom but he shut the door on me. I walked back into the kitchen.
“Jaime? Any idea what's going on?” I asked.
“No idea.” He replied.
I was curious why Tony was acting so weird, I couldn't help but wonder if he was seeing someone else. No! I won't even go there!
“Have an empanada, Jaime.” I told him.
“Yes!” He said with excitement, taking one.
Tony finally came into the kitchen and he acted like nothing happened. I offered him an empanada and he took one, then later that night, he brought me into the bedroom.
“What are you doing?” I asked him, putting my pajamas on.
“This.” He said.
I turned around to see him on one knee holding a gorgeous diamond ring, with small emeralds around the main ring.
Tony's POV
Carolina finally came back home after a week, and I had a good idea of what it was like taking care of Honey-Lemon by myself.
“Who's Shelby?” I asked her.
She explained it was someone she met at the park, then she asked what happened to Tyler.
“He was arrested, finally.” I told her.
When the ambulance came, so did the cops, the guys and I had to answer some questions before we went to the hospital. I had to go somewhere, I had an appointment with a to look at engagement rings. I wanted to incorporate Carolina's birthstone, which were emeralds into the ring. I picked out a ring that was already made and asked that they put some emeralds into it. It took a while but they got the job done. When I came back Carolina was curious where I had been.
“Tony, what are you doing?” She asked, as I rushed to our room.
I told her I had something to take care of, which I sort of did, I had to hide that ring so she didn't find it until tonight, when I would propose to her. I went into the kitchen and she had made empanadas.
“You can have one, Tony.” Carolina told me, sounding sort of mad.
It was a few hours later and it was starting to get dark.
“Come on, Carolina.” I told her, bringing her into the bedroom.
“What is it?” She asked. “What are you doing?” She was changing into her pajamas.
