A Mature Southern Man Marries The Girl Of His Dreams.
*
It was just another day.
A couple days later I called the jeweler telling him who I was. He told me Matias had called and said I would be calling soon. He informed me of the new inventory that just came in and wanted me to see if anything caught my fancy. Going over there after work he started showing me the new items he had received in. Immediately a ring caught my eye, and I asked about it.
He just ohh'ed saying;
"
Damn, you have a good eye for quality.
"
When he brought it out and handed it to me, he explained.
"
This is a Tiffany Soleste Heart-shaped 2 carat Halo Engagement Ring with matching Diamond Platinum Wedding Band.
"
As I held the rings, I knew they could not be more perfect. I asked how much it was. He told me the retail price was $50,000.00 and since Matias was involved, he would give them to me for $25,000.00
I immediately pulled out my Centurion American Express Black Platinum card and handed it to him saying;
"
The one thing I don't know is her ring size.
"
"
Not to worry I have their whole family on file, hers was just updated a few months ago.
"
He told me it would be ready in two days, I said great.
Then my mind wandered;
(
Why in the world would he give me this at half price? It really makes me wonder about Matias and his so called [
Owes me a few favors
] statement.
)
----------
I picked up the ring a couple days later and to my amazement he had separated the engagement ring and the wedding band into two gorgeous dark mahogany wood boxes that lit up when opened. A few days later I made reservations at a very posh upscale restaurant for the four of us. This place was easily at least $150.00 to $200.00 per person before the cost of drinks. I called Matias telling him to act surprised when Paola asked them to come along. I then called Paola telling her we were going out to dinner and the place was very upscale and to dress nicely. Also telling her since Angelina cooked me such a nice dinner, I would like them to come as well. She pouted a little saying she wanted it to be just us two, a little sternly I said no I want this to be a family outing. She perked up saying how much she appreciated including them. When the day came, I arrived in a nice limo and the four of us were off.
I was wearing my best very dark blue custom tailored Armani suit with a light blue shirt and royal blueish silver tie. Paola was dressed in the most gorgeous off-white very transparent formal gown that was split up both sides all the way up to just under each side of her breasts. Truly you could very easily see there was nothing underneath with matching five-inch open toe high heels. Her gown exotically flowed open with each step she took fully showing off her entire legs, hips, and waist. You could barely just make out her entire body underneath, she truly looked like heaven in high heels. Her pink pearl ear rings and necklace set off the ensemble perfectly.
Angelina was wearing a very nice light blue formal gown that was very sexy. Hers was not see through, although showed off every sexy curve she had. My only thought was;
(
That's Paola thirty years from now.
)
My heart fluttered a little knowing what my future held. Matias was wearing a very sharp dark gray pin striped suit that made him look very much like a mob boss. It made my mind wander a little bit.
On the way to the restaurant Matias smirked at me knowing full well what would happen that evening. Without anyone knowing I had hired a professional camera crew to video the whole thing. The dinner was perfect since I told the restaurant owner what would take place that evening. They really went all out to make sure it was the best night ever. After finishing our dessert, I stood up pushing my chair aside and nodding to the camera men.
Turning Paola's chair out a little I dropped down on one knee. Looking up into those beautiful dark brown eyes, she just then became aware of what was coming next.
"
Paola; In all the world, there is no heart for me like yours. In all the world, there is no love for you like mine.
I swear I couldn't love you any more than I do right now, and yet I know tomorrow I will love you even more.
Will you do me the honor of becoming my wife."
I opened the box and the lighted ring sparkled in her eyes, I slid the ring on her finger and looked up at the tears of joy streaming down her face.
"
YES, Yes I will marry you
"
I stood up and openly kissed her deeply in front of the entire world. Looking over Angelina was crying also; Matias had the biggest smile on his face ever. We sat down with Paola staring at the ring, she showed it to her mother and Angelina just swooned. She teasingly slapped Matias on the shoulder saying;
"
Why didn't you buy something like that for me?
"
I immediately came to his rescue saying;
"
It's a brand-new design, never been made before.
"
Matias mouthed the words to me; [
Thank You
]
The rest of the night Paola would not let go of my hand. Returning to their home, Matias pulled me aside saying the evening was perfect and there was no way Paola could have chosen a better man, shaking my hand calling me son now welcoming me to the family. Paola came back out with a change of clothing under her arm telling her father she was spending the night at my place. Matias just winked at me and then went into the house. On the way back to my place I thought she was going to rape me.
----------
When we arrived home, I gave the limo driver a nice tip and he left. Going inside Paola was like a woman possessed. She pushed me down on the couch jumping up onto my lap holding my head in her hands driving her tongue into my mouth. It was amazing that this dark Spanish little Tinkerbell had this much strength and spirit. She pulled back looking into my eyes with those almost black orbs that now seemed to sparkle saying;
"
My Soon To Be Husband
"
She smiled so lovingly;
"
I didn't think I would ever say that to any man. I promise you, I'm yours forever and always. My heart, my soul, every fiber of my being belongs to you.
"
