Then I Quit [BL]

R + Me ~OR~ Me + F

Noticing how he could take advantage of this, Ralph bows down onto the floor and asks, "Please give your son to me. I promise to love him for the rest of my life."

"What kind of sick comedy are you trying to pull off?" Gray snares at Ralph. I am in Gray's arms trying to un-flush my red and green and blue faces.

"It's not a comedy Mr Rosemary. I'm serious," not once did Ralph looks up from the ground. He continues to declare, "I want your son to be my bride."

Gray observes me and then says, "I'm okay if you guys date, but refrain from the idea of marriage until you have a stable income."

"Great!" Ralph pulls out an engagement ring.

"Nope, put that back. You didn't buy that with your own money."

"I did," Ralph defends himself, "I work part-time as an app developer. I have my own company separate from my family's business."

Gray slaps his forehead, "What kind of app do you make and sell?"

"Do you know the VisFilter app on G-Tact, the Google's virtual contacts?"

Gray nods and asks for further proof.

Ralph gets up and walks to a drawer near his walk-in closet. He pulls out two cool version of the contact container.

He hands them to Gray, "On the bottom of one says First Beta and other First Edition."

"You can just be really rich," Gray shows that he is not impressed.

"Then try them on and see who's name is contributed to for VisFilter," Ralph smiles with total confidence.

"You could have just bought it from the creator," Gray smirks.

"Oh boy," Ralph laughs and goes to his desk. "I coded it right here."

He then opens his odd-looking laptop and goes to the programs of VisFilter.

"I'm assuming you made that laptop as well?" I ask.

He smiles and winks at me, "You know it."

Gray laughs in joy and impressiveness, "That works for me. If Gabe is okay with it, then you guys can get engaged all you want."

They look at me and I simply shake my head, "I'm sorry. I don't-"

"At least think about it," his eyes sadden, "Please?"

I look away and reply with, "Sure."

From the corner of my eyes, I see Ralph putting the ring on my right ring finger, "I still want you to have it no matter what, so put it on your left ring finger when your answer is yes."

I close my eyes and breathe in deeply, "Yeah. Sure."

Then Ralph kisses the ring along with my hand while Gray gently elbows my side. I look at him and he simply winks.

"What's the stage before engaging and after being stranger?" Ralph hysterically asks Gray.

Gray thinks about it and says, "I guess that would be dating."

Ralph smiles devilishly as my eyes widen. I blurt out, "Isn't being friends come before engaging and after stranger?"

"Yeah, but," Gray thinks about it again, "friends don't give each other promise rings with the intend of marriage."

"Then I don't want it," I pull the ring half way through before Ralph pushes it back in.

He reminds me, "You said you'll think about it."

"I did," I smile, "I chose not to be engaged to you."

Gray moves away indicating that Ralph and my relationship is ours to handle.

Ralph holds our hands together in one bundle and says, "Why? Is it because of Freddie?"

"What? No. Why do you keep comparing yourself to Freddie?"

"Because I know you like him more than just your best friend. So unless you give a real reason, the only excuse I think you're making is because of Freddie," his eyes are red like he is about to cry out of anger.

"I just don't think I'm ready for a relationship," I avert my eyes from his strong illumination.

"You don't know unless you try and I'm the one confessing. Do you know how much courage I have to build up? Damn, I'm still shaking," He rubs his hands on mine's.

I think about Freddie. Then Freddie and Jelly. Then Freddie and Glenn. Finally, Freddie and me, do we have a chance? Do I want to take that chance?

Hopefully this chapter is very entertaining because I was so excited while writing it.

Sorry guys, I can't write anymore. I'm not in my best state of mind and I can't continue to force myself to write this sequel. After this chapter, I only have one more prepared. The rest is still in my mind and I know how it ends but I can't force myself to write it.

If I get enough requests, I'll try to but it won't be anytime soon. I really appreciate your support since the beginning.
