Ice Baby

Your POV

I never perused jewelry or anything expensive. Never looked at Gucci or Louis Vitton. Never even attempted with my bonus to test drive a Lamborghini. I wanted money, but money usually isn't quiet.

We pull into the parking lot of a complex, seeming to be near Mayo Clinic. He takes me inside and holds my hand as we walked through the building. I look up at the sign above the suite he was about to take me into. It was a jewelery store. Lasker Jewelers it read.

"So Matt.... why are we here?" I raise my eyebrow.

"I had an order I had to pick up." He smirks at me, and hands me a business card with appointment information on it.

"Why'd you hand me a card to a spa?" I tilt my head.

"Because I set you up for a massage and mani pedi. I figured it'd be a nice surprise once we leave here."

I nod my head at his response, only glancing down at his bags a couple of times as we walk back to our car.

Matthew's POV

I kissed (y/n)s forehead as she left the car, and headed into the spa. I quickly pull into a nearby parking lot and sit and glance at my watch. 11:49 am.

I sigh and open up the bag, eager yet excited to give my mom the gift I had bought her, and to show her my surprise for (y/n).

I pulled into my mom's driveway, and got out of the car quickly. Just as I was slamming the door shut, I remembered I had forgotten the bag. I grab the door and throw it open and grab the bag. My hand shook as I headed to the doorway, only for my mom to open the door as I was about to knock.

"Hi sweetheart! I just made lunch!" She said as she let me inside.

I sit down at the table just as my mom set a plate of a couple of ham and cheese sandwiches in front of me. I set the bag on the table and noticed that she glances at it as she grabs her own plate of food.

I reach my hand into the bag and pull out the first box. "Mom, I got you something." I hand her the box and she opens it to reveal a diamond bracelet.

Her eyes light up as she looks at me. "Matthew, this looks expensive....-"

"I love you mom, you deserve it. You're a great mama, and I haven't really gotten you anything." I smile at her as she looks at the bag again.

"Matt you didn't get me anything else did you...?"

"No ma...actually I got (y/n) something-"

She shooshes me as I pull out the second box "Here ma. I got her a ring"

"Matt, do you plan on marrying her NOW!?!"

She opens the box and gasps, a sterling silver band and tiny blue topaz gems greet her.

"Its a promise ring ma, I'm not completely ready to propose just yet." I smile at her as she sets the box down on the table.

"Matt, you've grown up so fast. I remember when you were just learning to walk. Now you have so much laid out in front of you. I want you to be happy. And she seems to make you that way. I trust (y/n) will continue to take good care of you."

I blush as she slides the ring box back to me and reopens up hers. "Ma, what should I do for her to make this better? I made dinner reservations at Terza and I just want to get it right without the wrong impression you know."

I take a few bites of my sandwich as my mom explained once again how I'll know what to do when I get there.
