9 I’m Ready

Sierra finally was out the door. Today she would be driving herself. She went into her garage to pick out a car. She chose one that want to flashy. Driving herself wasn't a bad thing once in awhile. Today she would pick Leon up.

As she approached the apartment complex she realized how awkward it might be. Though it was unavoidable. Sierra a finally reached his door and knocked. No one answered. She knocked again louder this time. Finally after a few seconds he answered.

Leon opened the door to see Sierra. He was was surprised, but not as much like last time. He thought what happened last time was too hard to believe. Still after a restless night, he slowly accepted it. He gestured for her to come in.

"I'm sorry that I came unannounced." She didn't actually know what to say, but this seemed most appropriate. "No, it's okay. I just didn't get much sleep last night. I'll try to get ready quickly."

Sierra nodded to this, and sat on the couch. Leon went to get ready. Sitting there in silence made it seem as time was still. She couldn't just do nothing. Sierra did feel a little guilty though. She did kind of force him to this. Even if their feelings are mutual wasn't this too fast.

While lost in her thoughts she thought of something. Sierra headed towards the kitchen and looked around. There was much but she could make do with it. She started preparing.

Leon was almost done getting dressed. Though a little nervous with her right in his house. After getting dressed he opens the door and an aroma filled his nose. He walked to the kitchen to see Sierra cooking. His heart seemed to skip a beat.

Sierra heard sounds coming from behind her and looked to see Leon standing behind her with a slight smile on his face. "I'm sorry for borrowing your kitchen. I just wanted to to thank you in some way."

Leon shook his head. "It's fine." She didn't need to thank him. He sat down at his table. A few minutes passed and a plate was set in front of him. He didn't know if it was because of hunger or the fact that she cooked for him, but it looked very appetizing.

It was a simple vegetarian omelette. Leon took one bite and felt like he died and gone to heaven. "It's delicious." Hearing him say that made a smile curl on her face. "You do have to hurry up though. We still have something to do."

Hearing her say this made him remember why she was here. "Are you sure you want to do this." Leon looked at her directly in the eye. Sierra sighed, "Yesterday we didn't talk that much so today I will take more time to explain. Although we are getting married for certain reasons the fact that I like you is true. Since I like you marrying you isn't so bad for me. Though I do see how it's weird for you. My question is are you alright with this?"

Leon was quiet for a minute. "I won't regret it." They sat there in silence. "Are you done? We still need to get married." Sierra smiled again but more brightly. Leon blushed at her radiance.

"I'm ready."
