You Shine Brighter -x- [PJ/open]

[Holly Kennedy]

Holly had been bored all day and she didn't know what she should do. She had only been awake for an hour or two, but to her that was all day. She decided to phone PJ, that always filled her day up, she could talk to him for hours and never be bored about it. After she had talked to him for about an hour she said goodbye and went to find something to do. She went through her wardrobe to see some of the fashion disasters that she had once worn and that she could now laugh at the thought of wearing. She went to the bottom of the her wardrobe and spotted her shoe collection, she pulled some of them out and noticed her Ice skates at the back. She pulled them out and smiled, she hadn't been ice skating in a long time and she loved them because they were pink and sparkly, just the perfect representation of her personality.
She smirked as she had an idea. She could get PJ to go skating with her. She knew that he wasn't the biggets fan of it but she knew that she could get him onto the ice if she dragged him on and plus she'd need somebody to help her up when she fell, which was a lot. She wasn't the best skater but she loved to attempt it.
She phoned PJ quickly and told him that she wanted to go ice skating, he seemed a bit reluctant but he told her that he woudl go for her since she wanted to go so badly. She was happy as she closed her phone. She threw her ice skated in her school bag after emptying it. She feel giddy and giggly at the thought of going ice skating and the fact that she would have to drag PJ on which made her laugh further. She walked her way down to the riverside with a smile on her face. She walked over to the ice rink taht was nearby and sat on one of the benches and waited for PJ to come.

Honestly, anywhere around Ice was not where Phoenix wanted to be. It was cold, hard, and stung when you landed on your ass, neither of those three qualities did he like the much. However, he had come only because of Holly. She wanted to get out and do something, instead of sitting inside mulling over her theory that she had become fat. Phoenix hadn't thought that, He thought it to be completely adorable, not fat.

As he walked into the Riverside, he made his way to the ice rink, fiddling with the scarf that he had draped over his neck, slightly covering his black T-shirt with yellow lettering. His jeand were a faded dark color, and fit snuggly, hardly covering the tops of his white shoes. He walked slowly, as if thinking that he could easily get out of this. however, something told him he was wrong.

Giving a broad smile as he caught sight of Holly, he stalked closer, wrapping his arms around her from behind and resting his hands on her bump "Hello Princess" He cooed with a smile.[/ul]

[Holly Kennedy]

Holly hadn't been sitting about for long but she was lost in her own little world inside her head, she tended to do that a lot. She liked to think of all the cutest things she could do when little Nicoli came along, she would dress him up in the cutest outfits and she would sing to him every night before he went to sleep. She was distracted from her thoughts as she felt the somebody hug her from behind. She knew it was PJ, it was only him who hugged her like that. She looked around to him as he placed his hands on her growing bump. She liked it when he did that, it gave her reassurance that he wanted to be there for their baby and that he wasn't going to go back to that other Italian girl that she thought he would go back to soon enough. That would just destroy her world.
"Hey" she said happily with a smile as she sat up further and kissed his cheek.
"Ready for some fun?" she giggled
She was glad that she came ice skating, now her day wouldn't be so boring and she wouldn't be moaning on the IM about it to her other friends.

[/b] He said looking out over the skating rink. Last time that he had ice skated, it hadn't turned out so well. He had skated on his butt more than he had on actual skates. "I guess i'll have to get skates" He said with a faint smile. He was going to try it again, for Holly.[/size][/ul]

[Holly Kennedy]

Holly smiled in contentment as PJ continued to hug her, she knew she could stay like that all day and she sometimes did when she spent the day in his dorm with him. She wouldn't know what she would do without him, he was the best thing to happen to her ever and she knew just by his actions and the things he had said to her that he would always be there for her and Nicoli. She couldn't wait until she saw him holding little Nicoli, she thought it would be the most adorable picture ever and she was sure that he would be the double of PJ, she would love that.
"Yeah, it will be fun" she smiled
"Go get your skates then, Ive got mine with me"
She waited for PJ to go get his skates as she pulled her pink sparkly ones from her bag she brought along. She swapped her pink and black checked Vans for her skates, although she couldn't help but laugh a little when she had to being her legs around to the side of the bench to put her skates on. She couldn't just simply bend down to her feet as her bump had gotten in the way and she didn't want to squash her baby. She tied her laces as she waited for PJ to come back.

[/i] She said stepping back to reach for a pair as Phoenix gave the size he needed. As she handed him the skates, He thanked her and made his way back to where Holly was seated. He smiled as she watched her put on her shoes, with a bit of trouble from the baby bump. However, she had gotten them on and tied without any kind of help.

Sitting down next to her, Phoenix began putting on his skates as well"Ok, so how am I supposed to walk in these?" He asked defeatedly.[/size][/ul]

[Holly Kennedy]

Holly waited for PJ to come back she looked around at the scence before her. There wasn't very many people on the ice at all, just some little kids and their parents, they looked like they were having fun and she smiled. She knew that could be her soon and she loved that fact. She loved the idea of being a mommy, it all sounded so cute and all the games she could play, it would make her feel like a tiny child again, although she acted like it sometimes anyway, when she wanted to.
She looked to her side and saw PJ coming back with his set of skates. She waited until he put them on and she laughed as he did, he was getting the laces all mixed up and she felt like doing them for him herself but he eventually got it right.
She laughed again as he asked how he could walk in them. She stood up and grabbed his hands and pulled him from his seat with a smile on her face. This was the perfect place she could be with PJ, nobody else was going to bother them and it was just the two of them together for a while doing something fun.
"Just follow my lead" she smiled with a laugh
She let go of one of his hands and tried to drag him slowly towards the ice rink.

[/b] He said with a slight huff. Glancing at his feet, he seemed satisfied with the way he had finally gotten them laced up right, now was the tricky part... staying on them long enough to skate.

As Holly took his hand as pulled him up into a standing position and onto the ice, He took baby steps, now feeling like one of the children were were skating about with his parents. For a moment, He looked shocked and felt in his pants pocket, running his hand over the cigarette size box that rested there.

"I think I should tell you... I've taken up smoking recently" He said, figuring she had seen the outline of the box in his jeans. By saying this, he half expected her to take the box out of his pockets, demanding that he shouldn't do such a thing. Hopefully, when she saw the silver diamond ring, she wouldn't be so mad at him.[/size][/ul]

[Holly Kennedy]

Holly laughed as he pouted, he could be so cute sometimes that she could just pinch his cheeks but she knew he would hate that which made her giggle again thinking about it. She pulled him slowly into the ice making sure they both didn't fall and being the clutz she was it wasn't hard to her to fall flat on her butt. She was an alright skater but she could have been better and she smiled and bit her lip to try to stop herself from laughing as PJ only took tiny baby steps, she thought it was too funny.
She skated on a bit further and finally to the side of the rink where she held on to stop herself from slipping. She looked behind her and saw PJ slowly coming after her and she laughed again and when he finally caught up with her he seemed a bit distracted with something, sher really didn't take much notice though.
When he said something about taking up smoking she was going to ask him to repeat what he said to confirm what she thought he just said, she didn't want to believe what she thought he just said, it definetly wasn't like PJ to take up smoking, she thought anyway. She took herself away from her thoughts as she stared at him stangely with a confused look that would have had anybody laughing at her because of the look on her face. She knew this must be a joke or something because he would never do something like that.
"No you haven't" she stated with a confused giggle
Sighing, she left go of the side of the ice rink and grabbed his hand and pulled him closer to her. She had already noticed a box or something in his jeans pocket but she didn't think much of it. She reached for his right side pocket and reached her hand in his pocket where she had seen a box or something before. She pulled the box from his pocket to find that it wasn't cigarettes at all, but a small-ish navy blue box. She looked up at him confused again but with a smile on her face, she knew that it wasn't PJ to take up smoking like he said he did.
She was completely oblivious to everything around her these days and she thought this was a bit strange, this situation felt different to her ans she didn't know if it was good different ot bad different. She held the box up to her ear and rattled it slightly, she didn't want to open it afraid of what she would find- she had no clue what to expect, but she didn't hear much. She looked up at PJ again, a bit confused as she opened the box that she had taken from him. She gasped as she opened it. It was the most gorgeous and beautiful sliver diamond ring she had ever seen in her life, never had she thought she had seen anything more beautiful. Again, she was oblivious to most things. She looked up at him with a unsure smile.
"PJ....?" she asked softly

[nate]

[/b] He said with a soft laugh. She was just too cute.

As she opened it, astonishment was the new and most evident expression. He nodded as she said his name "Holly Kennedy... Will you marry me" He paused and laughed softly "I'd get on one knee, but i'm pretty sure that wouldn't turn out good in skates." Glancing around, he noticede a few people watching them intently, as if waiting for Holly's answer as well, anticipating it just as much as he was.[/size][/ul]

[Holly Kennedy]

Holly kept a large girly smile on her face, her teeth showing as she pressed her tongue to the back of her top teeth to try to stop her from giggling so much. She felt so many emotions at once that she didn't know which one to show first but the main feeling she showed was shock, confusion and happniess all at the one time. She knew this must be some sort of joke, a funny joke that she would get laughed at if she took it too seriously. She just didn't know what to think. It was as if time had stopped and that she was the only inhabitant of the world, only her and PJ. She had completely forgotten about the rest of the world and it was almost as if the rest of the world was just a blur to her. She couldn't stop staring her the ring in front of her, it was just so beautiful and it was just the kind of ring she would spot in a shop window and say that she wanted it, laughing about it because she would never have it but here it was in front of her. And when PJ asked her to marry him that just caused her emotions to fall apart and disintegrate as a slow tear fell from the corner of her eye, her bright blue eyes that were glistening wildly with happiness and emotion beyond anybodys comprehension. As she thought about it more, she couldn't belive PJ would do something like this, to make such a gesture like this. She placed her free hand over her mouth and the top of her nose as she tried to calm herself, she didn't want to look like a fool and burst into tears. She took a slow shaky but happy breath with a small hiccup that would have made anybody laugh. She knew that if she tried to explain her feelings and emotions, at this time, to anybody they would have thought she was strange. She knew they would claim that nobody could feel that amount of emotion, especially the boys. She looked up at PJ again as another involuntary tear escaped her other eye, this time. She wanted to ask him if he was joking with her but by the happy but nervous expression of his face made her realise that he wasn't kidding around. She looked at the ring again, she still couldn't believe what was happening. She wondered how many people were behind this, if any. She would kill them in a funny way for not telling her. She was completely unaware of this and it was something she had never expected in a million years, was this why he asked her to meet him here? She looked up at him again with the biggest smile ever, she loved him so much and she hoped that he felt the same way about her, forever. Never at such a young age did she think she woudl find the one person that she woudl want to be with forever and ever but she did find him and he was right in front of her asking her to marry him. She thought it was strange that she never fainted or something. Maybe this was something that, subconciously, she wanted to happen. Afterall she had written several songs about and for him that told for her feelings for him, he just never got to hear any of them and she didn't want him to hear any of them, they were her little secret. Although, the countless times that Reagan had caught her singing them she was surprised she hadn't figured it out already.
"of course I will" she smiled and giggled at the same time
