Suzanna walked up the steps
to the roof, every step she took the music got louder. She wasn’t sure she knew
this song, but it sounded familiar.
She was sure she knew who was
singing, probably some unknown new artist, and David thought she might like him
so he was playing it for her.
As she reached the top, she
saw the rooftop door was open, and she could smell the sweet, sweet aroma of
roses everywhere. Roses, her favorite, he never failed to amaze her. She
stepped out onto the roof and saw the roses she had smelt a moment ago.
They were everywhere, all over the rooftop, the tables, chairs, in the center
of the roof was a table set for two, candles, champagne, and roses in a vase.
Looking around she wondered
where David was, maybe she was early, maybe she was late, she was about to call
out his name when strong arms circled her waist and she smiled.
“David, that’d best be you or
you’re getting thrown off the roof.” Suzanna joked.
“Oh, Suzie, you’re so funny!”
He laughed and kissed her neck, and let go off her waist and taking her by the hand, walking over to the dance
floor, pulling her along with him.
“Dance with me beautiful
lady! To a song, a song made just for you!” David smiled and pulled her close,
circling his arms around her waist once more, the song began to play and he
swayed back and forth with her to the music; the music he created just for her,
and his love for her.
“David! Is this you singing?”
Suzanna asked, looking at him in awe.
“Yes, it is. I told you this
would be the anniversary you would never forget. I made this song specifically
for you. And no one else, we can dance to this song anytime we wish, and know
that no one else can claim it, or us.” David smiled, and spun her as she
squealed happily, and came back quickly to kiss him.
“I love it! I can’t believe
you made this just for me!” Suzanna squeaked, David loved it when her voice
squeaked, it meant she was truly happy and could barely contain her excitement
and happiness, so it came out in a squeak.
The two danced around the
floor to their love song, until their feet were red raw and sore, and still
they didn’t want to stop, but David insisted, before they both collapsed from
exhaustion.
“You cooked too?” Suzanna
asked, as he led her to the table she’d seen earlier, he pulled out her chair
for her to sit, then once she was seated he bowed to her and seated
himself.
“Of course I cooked, I wanted
this night to be perfect, and so I decided to trust it to no one but myself. I
made all your favorite foods. And your all-time favorite desert.” David smiled,
as her eyes lit up, and her voice became a squeak once more.
“Strawberry Cheesecake?”
Suzanna could barely speak, all that really came out was a loud squeak.
“Strawberry Cheesecake? I
thought your favorite desert was chocolate cake?” David said, and frowned
worried.
“Oh! Well….it’s…it’s…ok.”
Suzanna was about to get very upset, when David’s face broke out into a huge
grin.
“You monster! Your teasing me
aren’t you?!” Suzanna said, sounding mad but smiling herself.
“Of course I am sweetheart!
How could I ever forget your favorite desert, it’s mine too!” David smiled and
poured her some wine, and then himself some too.
“A toast! To us, may we have
many more happy anniversaries for many, many years to come!” David smiled and
clinked his glass with hers and took a sip.
After dinner, David wanted to
play the song he’d made for her, while she sat and listened. Suzanna loved it
when he sang to her, it was a very rare treat indeed.
“This song is for you
Suzanna, the love of my life, my soul mate, I hope we can be together for
always, and forever.” He pressed play and began to sing a beautiful love song,
every word full of meaning and love. Before long Suzanna was in tears, and
could no longer hold it all in. Before he could finish the song, Suzanna stood
up and hugged him as tight as she could, and cried uncontrollably.
“Dear Suzie, why are you
crying?” David asked, worried he’d upset her somehow, this was not the reaction
he was expecting.
“It’s so beautiful!” Suzanna
managed to get out through her sobs.
“What is?” David asked
holding her as she cried, he didn’t mind, he’d take any excuse to hold her.
“All of this, the dancing,
the roses, the food, and this song! I just…couldn’t hold it in any longer!”
Suzanna stopped crying, and looked up at him.
“What did I do to deserve such a wonderful and loving man?”
“I don’t know, win the
lottery maybe?” He grinned and she couldn’t help but smile herself, smile as he
slowly lowered his head to give her a long and passionate kiss, a kiss that
would blow all other kisses away, and would leave the two gasping for air once
they finally did part.
As the sun sets in the
background the two continue their waltz around the dance floor to their one and
only love song.
