Gareth, the 'Knight in Shining Armour' - Part Two

Gareth woke up the very next day.... thinking about a very special young lady.....

Hey, wait!!! I wanna tell this part of the story... after all... it IS a major scene that played out, ya know!

*sigh*

O-kay, you tell it then, but make sure you get all the details straight. You do tend to ramble a bit.

Heh, not as much as you 'Miss Smartie!!!'

Um, that's 'MRS' Smartie to you.

Okay, well, on with the story then.

As you know, I've fallen head over heels with my co-worker (and fellow conspirator), Rhonda Bagley. Who would have known huh?

I had to act fast, as that slimeball.... Don Lothario (great name huh? Fits perfectly LOL), was sniffing around my gal, so I declared my true feelings for her.

And she reciprocated!!!

HAH! In yer face Don boy!!!!

Well, I didn't want to overstay my welcome there, and I WAS feeling a bit hungry and tired, so I decided to make my way home. And lo!!!! My 'maker (and Sim Goddess) had parked a barbecue and picnic table in the back yard.

HOT DOGS HERE WE COME!!!!

So, without any hesitation, I raided the fridge and got out the ingredients for my favourite food!!! No brainer really, jar of sausages, onions, buns and relish (mainly mustard .... yum!)

Um, Gareth?

Yeah?

I've already told everybody about that....

Oh.

And the exercise regime too.

Ah.... well.... um.... well thank you very much. I was getting into the 'flow' and you just HAD to spoil it for me.

Sorry.

Thanks a lot. Um, where was I???

Thinking of Rhonda.

Oh yeah, here I was, exhausted from exercising, when .... my thoughts drifted back to Rhonda. And her family.

Yeah, she might be rich, but she wasn't happy. Not with that evil witch/thing/um whatever, and her cowardly brother.... money certainly didn't buy her happiness at all. Just a few trinkets here and there.

Gah, who am I kidding? I'm living a humble life compared to her. But I'm fine. At least I've got my oven and sink to fret about. And other stuff to fuss over!!!

However, something told me to get my butt over there ASAP. And man, was I glad I did.

No sooner had I arrived, when I spotted Rhonda and her Ma (or whatever that woman/person is) having a HUGE blazing row!!!!





Then her Ma stormed off, probably back into the house... I dunno, I was too worried about Rhonda. She looked upset.

Hi teddy bear.

Oh, hi there.



Aww what's wrong?

*sigh* Sherman...

Sherman's her brother... the wuss.

Wanna talk about it?

Not really. Just hate this hellhole that's all.

Lemme make it all better for you then.




That's when we started kissing.



Ya know, I really haven't a clue what happened after that, but I was so swept up in the moment and determined to make things better for Rhonda that I did the most improbable and impossible thing ....
.... ever.

Wanna go steady with me?




Um, sure honey.... sure.

I swear, if I'd asked her to jump off a cliff, I'm fairly sure she would have..... not that I'd ever dare do that, she's too precious.

But, even though I was still exhausted from that workout yesterday...... I had to lean in and whisper something really naughty in her ear.



Wanna do a WooHoo with me? When we're alone?




She giggled and blushed. It was the cutest thing I've ever seen. I sank to one knee and gazed lovingly at her. She was the only one I could see, there and then.

Gareth?



Yeah?

What..... what. are. you. doing?



Um, wait a sec.



Dammit, where's that ring????

I swear, those pockets are waaay too small. After a few seconds of tugging and pulling (keep it clean folks, that's NOT what I was doing ... o-kay?) it came free. Creaking the little velvet box open, I offered it to a very surprised Rhonda.



Will..... *clears throat*



Will you marry me?



First of all she was shell-shocked, but she didn't have time to pause and think about it.

OMG!!! OMG!!! IS THIS FOR REAL?????



Yup.

Well, hell ... yeah!!!




Soooooooooo.... whaddayasay huh?




OMG! YEAH definitely YEAH!!!!!





Even the sudden appearance of her brother Sherman, didn't spoil that precious moment. Although he did appear to have a rod up his butt about something. Maybe his Ma was waiting for him indoors to give him a good telling off???



I didn't care, for now, both Rhonda and I were caught up in 'the moment'.






She was so excited that she flung herself into my arms and squeezed and hugged me so tightly that I was almost choking. But at least I made her very happy indeed.
