Drabble 14
âIt has to be perfect Sebastian okay. I did not go through the channels I did just to pull this off. She is going to be so surprised, itâs ridiculous.â Alex smiled as he looked at all the roses placed perfectly along the floor, only leaving enough space to walk through. He looked around at the waves of different colored flowers and nodded. âShe is either going to love it or hate it sir.â Sebastian told him, Alex laughing at the comment. âJust enough of a path to make it up to the bedroom where she will see the travel gear.â He reached out and grabbed one of the white roses with red tips at the petals, fixing it in the vase. Alex fixed a few of the out of place flowers before retreating back up to their room, making sure the second part of the surprise was ready. He opened up the brand new suit cases he had bought for the occasion, setting them up at the end of the bed, each of them with a small box on them. One a new set of charms for her bracelet and the second one, the engagement ring he had wanted to get her from the beginning. He couldnât help but open the box and admire the rose shaped ring he had picked out. Alex pulled it out to inspect the engraving on the inside that read âUntil the last pedal falls...â He closed his eyes and carefully set it back into the box, setting it back on top of the suit case. He took a look at his watch and smiled. Maddie was going to be home soon and she was either going to love everything about it or hate that he went to the extremes that he had. Alex thought it was appropriate, especially since he had been away at work more often than he would have liked. But now he had a full three weeks drama free on a cruise to the Caribbean. Little did she know, Alex had Margot pick out some small scantly clad outfits. He wanted nothing more than to see her in bikiniâs and in shorts that barely covered her. The thought alone was enough to drive him mad and he was excited. Time felt like it was going a mile an hour. He hopped up on the bed and waited for what seemed like forever. Not wanting to wait any more he pulled out his phone and hit her number on his speed dial. âHey babe. Just calling to see exactly where you were. I miss you even though you have only been gone a few hours. Well I canât wait til you get here. I love you. Bye.â Alex hung up. Her voicemail. Now he was forced to wait and the anticipation killed him. As he began to lay back in his bed, Sebastian came around the corner into the room. âYou look like a lost dog.â Alex groaned as he sat up. âLook, you and I both know this is my first time with this since I was like how old?â He spat out as he looked around at everything. âShe deserves the world and got me. The least I can do is give the world to her okay.â Alex broke a small chuckle, looking up at the man standing across the room. Before he could say another word, he heard the door open and shut. His heart jumped a bit as he held out a hand, shushing Sebastian. âI want to hear her reaction.â Alex whispered as he silently moved closer to the bedroom door, listening to the noise from the bottom floor.Â
