Chapter 4:

“I melt every time you look at me that way. It never fails, anytime, any place. This burn in me is the coolest thing that I've ever felt. I melt.” - Rascal Flatts' “I Melt”.

I awoke the following morning with Teddy by my side. It felt SO good to have him there with me again. To me it felt like nothing between us had changed, and I liked that.

“Morning...Ted,” I whispered as I once again laid my head on Teddy's chest, hoping to wake him up.

“Morning,” Teddy spoke up. “How'd you sleep?”

“I slept wonderfully knowing that I was next to you,” I said, smiling.

“Good. I slept pretty well myself. So...I have something planned for today. I'm meeting my mom somewhere, and I'll call you after the meeting so I can meet back up with you before I leave for more stops.”

“Okay.”

“Wow, I'm shocked. You didn't beg to go with me.”

“I've grown up Ted. I've realized that I don't HAVE to go everywhere with you. From now on I'll only go places with you if you ask me. If you don't ask me to go with you, then I really have no business going.”

“Wow. You really have changed. You've definitely matured...I like it.”

“Thank you very much,” I smiled as Teddy slowly got out of bed.

“Well...I'll see you later, okay?”

“Will do,” I smiled as I watched Teddy leave my room.

-Mine All Mine-
-Teddy's Point of View-

I found myself in downtown Nashville. I was walking the streets until I came to the store I requested to meet my mom at. When I walked in, my mom was already talking to one of the salesmen. They were looking all around the store.

“Hey mom,” I said as I hugged my mom.

“Did you have fun with Kourtni?” my mom asked.

“We had a lot of fun actually...which is why I sent you that text and asked you to meet me here.”

“What did you two do? I'm just curious because I haven't seen you this happy since the two of you broke up and she moved from Telluride back to Nashville.”

“First we met up at IHOP and got breakfast. Afterwards we went to her uncle's house.”

“Oh fun, what did you do at her uncle's house?”

“You don't want to know.”

“Teddy!” my mom yelled.

“Well, you asked...I answered.”

“I thought you were going to stay a virgin until you were married.”

“Yeah, so did I, but things don't always go as planned. Besides...that was our second time anyways.”

As I continued my story, I could see my mom's mouth dropping and getting closer to the ground. I knew I had to stop before I dug myself into a hole that I couldn't dig myself out of.

“I'm just going to shut up now,” I said as one of the salesmen re-approached us.

“I think that's a wise decision.”

-Mine All Mine-

While Teddy was out visiting his mom, I was out visiting a friend at one of the local boutiques in Nashville. We met at school and instantly became really good friends, and I was pretty pumped to find out she worked at one of my favorite little downtown boutiques.

“Kourtni!” she exclaimed when I walked through the doors.

“Hey Jamie!” I said with a smile on my face as she came out from behind the counter and gave me a hug.

“How are you? How come you didn't come to Drew's party last night?”

“James, you know the party scene isn't for me. Besides...I was a little busy last night. Like the old saying goes, it was time to rekindle an old flame.”

“Who?” she asked, giving me a funny look. “You mean you met up with Teddy again? But I thought after the other night with him and Tyler fighting at the bowling alley that you never wanted to see him again.”

“I couldn't help myself. Teddy's just...Teddy.”

“So, what happened with you and Teddy?”

“At first we went out to breakfast then we went to my uncle's house. Once we got to my uncle's house things quickly sped up from there.”

“Kourtni, you didn't.”

“Didn't what?”

“You two didn't, well, you know...did you?”

“Honey, we did yesterday and that wasn't the first time we'd been that close either.”

“WHAT? How come I am just now finding out about this?”

“I thought I had told you.”

“Nope...hadn't said a word.”

“Well, now you know,” I said with a laugh. “Okay, help me pick out a dress. I want to go home in a new dress and look that much better for Teddy. I'm thinking we're going out to eat tonight, but I don't know where.”

“Hm...right this way,” Jamie said as the two of us began searching around for a new dress.

-Mine All Mine-
-Teddy's POV-

After I met up with my mom, I headed back to Kourtni's uncle's house. I know I told her that I would call her, but there were a few things I needed to do around the house. When I arrived back at her uncle's, I found her uncle was at home, but her car was gone.

“I'm glad you're here,” I said to her uncle as he opened the door and let me inside.

“What's up?” he asked me.

“I need your help with something.”

“Like?”

“Look,” I said as I showed him what my mom and I had gone out shopping for.

“Gotcha,” he nodded. “Well, what are you wanting to do?”

“I've got everything planned out, but what I need you to do is help keep Kourtni distracted if she shows up. Better yet, call her and ask her to go get something at the grocery store. The more time I can get the better.”

“I can handle that. You get to doing whatever you need to do. I'll go make the phone call.”

-Mine All Mine-

As I was leaving the boutique with a brand new dress on, I could hear my cell phone ringing. I dug all around my purse until I came upon my phone. On the screen I saw my uncle Brad's name flashing. What could he possibly need me for?

“Hello,” I answered.

“Hey Kourt...it's uncle Brad,” he replied.

“Hey Uncle Brad. What do you need?”

“While you're out, can you stop by the store and get some milk? We're out.”

“Sure thing. Is that all we need?”

“That's all I can think of. I'm at the refrigerator now and that's all I see.”

“Okay. Well, call me if you think of anything else.”

“Will do. Thanks Kourt.”

“No problem,” I said as I hung up my phone.

-Mine All Mine-
-Teddy's POV-

I stood in Kourtni's room, looking through the blinds as I watched her get out of her car and head towards the house. It was a good thing her uncle had hidden my car in his garage or else my big surprise would be ruined.

As soon as I heard the front door open, I went over to Kourtni's computer and started playing a song. Not long after the song began, I heard Kourtni tell her uncle she was going to lay down for a little bit. Perfect timing.

“What's going on?” I heard Kourtni said as she carefully pushed her bedroom door open. “Teddy,” she said when she saw me standing over by her computer. “What are you doing? Can you tell me what's going on?”

“Dance with me. I'll explain later,” I said as I started the song over again.

When you light those candles up there on that mantle, settin' the mood,
I just lie there staring, silently preparing to love on you.
I can feel the heat from across the room.
Ain't it wild what a little flame can make you want to do?

I melt every time you look at me that way.
It never fails, anytime, any place.
This burn in me is the coolest thing I've ever felt.
I melt.

Don't know how you do it,
I love the way I lose it every time.
What's even better is knowing that
Forever you're all mine.
The closer you get the more my body aches.
One little stare from you is all it takes.

I melt every time you look at me that way.
It never fails, anytime, any place.
This burn in me is the coolest thing I've ever felt.
I melt.

“Teddy...what's going on?” Kourtni asked during the middle of the song as we danced around her room. “Why are there rose petals on my bed?”

I melt every time you look at me that way.
It never fails, anytime, any place.
This burn in me is the coolest thing I've ever felt.
I melt.

Every time you look at me that way, I melt.

I melt.

With the end of that song, I took a deep breath as I let go of Kourtni and took a few steps back.

“Teddy, tell me what's going on...now. You're freaking me out,” Kourtni said, her voice more than a little shaky.

“There's something I need to tell you,” I said.

“Oh great...you're breaking up with me again?”

“No.”

“Then what is it?”

“Kourtni, I realized the moment I saw you in the restaurant that I couldn't be without you. And then when I kissed you at the bowling alley, I knew I wanted you back, but then there was the fight with Tyler. After that I figured you didn't want anything to do with me...but I was wrong. And then yesterday...everything that happened was amazing,” I smiled. “Which brings me to why I've gone all out and lit candles in your room and put rose petals on your bed,” I said as I grabbed the box out of my pocket and got down on one knee. “Kourtni Faith, I want you to know that I love you with all of my heart, and I love no one else. Will you marry me?” I asked Kourtni as I opened the box.

Rather than answer with an immediate yes, Kourtni's mouth dropped.

“I'm...I'm speechless,” she finally managed to say, her hand resting over her heart.

“Please don't say no,” I begged.

“Oh no...I'm not going to say no. I'm just in awe of the ring and everything you've done. Teddy, this is the best day of my life,” Kourtni said as a tear rolled down her cheek. “Of course I'll marry you!” she finally exclaimed as I slid the ring on her finger.

“I love you,” I whispered as I stood up and kissed Kourtni.

“I love you too,” she said, smiling back at me.
