Chapter 10
They ignored the ringing and the knocks, as they both went around a second time. Finally after a third ring, and knock at the door AJ stopped his slow pace making Toy groan in disapproval.
"AJ please don't stop" She said, begging him to continue. He wanted to keep going just as bad as she did, but he knew the rings and knocks would keep going until they were answered. He looked over her body and finally at her face.
"Tonight" he whispered as the phone rang and the knocking started once again. as if in sequence. "Promise." He took himself out of her, slowly managing to say 'here I come.' Toy gathered her towel and wrapped it around her, sitting on the edge of the bed answering the phone. Just as AJ finished putting his boxers and pants back on he opened the door to find Leigh Ann waiting out side of it. He invited her in, picking his shirt up off the bed, as he walked past. He and Leigh Ann talked and she left as Toy hung up the phone.
"Who was that" AJ asked walking up to her wrapping his arms around her waist.
"Pe. She wants us to get dressed and come down stairs." She said with a confused look on her face.
"Yeah.. Leigh just told me. What the hell is going' on?" He asked with the same look on is face Toy had.
"Earlier they were talking about how we weren't gonna do anything tonight? and now this." Toy just shrugged and started to go through her suite case. AJ did the same. They went downstairs with the rest of the group getting ready to leave. Both wondering where they were going, and why nobody would tell them, but would only say 'you'll see.' Finally they got to a club where AJ and Toy got out last.
"All you had to do was say we're going to a club. Its not that hard" Toy said smiling as she turned to Brian as she walked. He smiled as he hooked his arms in both hers and Leigh Ann's and escorted them in the building. Security walked the ten of them through the crowded club and into a VIP room. Where Carson was sitting, with a group that made up to be just about everybody they knew were going to be in town. They said their hello's and everybody started to make their way to the dance floor as Debalah Morgan's 'Dance with me' came on. Carson sat in the VIP room taking small sips of his drink as he eyeballed Toy and AJ grind against one another, never taking his eyes off the two.
Has he stared at the two he couldn't help but wonder where he and toy would be right now if he they hadn't broke up back in high school? They were in love, voted the best looking couple in high school, all of there friends were sure that the two would always be together, and they probably would have been if she hadn't decided to go to college in Florida. He told her that it was cool that she was going, even though it hurt him that she was leaving he didn't want to stop her from doing what she wanted to do, or stand in her way of happiness, the last thing he would have wanted to hear for the rest of his life was 'I wonder what my life would have been like if I went to that college in Florida.'
He watched as Aj picked toy up in his arms, swing her around and then kissed her. He watched as she laughed at some of the silly things AJ was doing, and all this made him highly upset. He wanted to share those moments with her, he wanted to be the one to tell the world that he was marrying this wonderful girl, whom he was in love with. Envy started to grow wildly inside of him as he watched them. His thoughts were interrupted by Kevin's voice over the microphone.
"Excuse me everyone. Sorry to interrupt your fun, but as you know our boy AJ has finally gotten his act together, and purposed to his girlfriend this morning. And well I just want to wish the two of you the best I hope the two of you are just as happy together as me and my wife are. Umm I'm going to get off of her now, but I think that Toy's friend Petress had something to say." He said looking around for her, after spotting her he called her to come on stage. While he did that Carson stayed sited watching AJ and Victoria, watch as AJ stood behind her with is hands around her kissing her neck, and the two of them smiling as happy as can be. This made him highly upset, most of it cam from the envy that was mixed with alot of alcohol.
"OK. Ummm...well I guess first I want to say congratulations and wish yall the best. Toy girl I'm so happy for you. We've known each other for always and been there for each other good or bad, and I'm happy that I could be here to share this moment with you. AJ, I know that we didn't get along at first but I'm glad we worked out our differences and everything's cool between us now. And just so you know I will always have your back. I'm here for you no matter what. But enough with the mushy stuff, sort of. I have something for the two of you, you can call it a pre-wedding..well and engagement present. OK. I need the two of you to come to the center of the floor. OK now my present to the two of you...Boy II Men!!" everyone cheered as the boys walked out on stage. AJ and toy were shocked to see them there. They came out said congratulations to the happy couple, then song 'Thank You In Advance' Carson watched as everyone danced together, Kevin, Kristen; Brian, Leighanne, Nick, and his girlfriend; Howie and Petress, but the ones he watched the most were AJ and toy, making him more upset, seeing them with their arms wrapped around each other her head laying on his shoulder, and him sing the song into her ear, wishing it was him and her. After they song that one they song 'Pass you by' said good-bye then left, they had to do some promotion stuff over seas. AJ and Victoria danced some more, until Howie pulled him away, for some business related stuff, for the next album. Carson was going to go dance with her but some dude beat him to it.
