We're Getting Married

Crystal invited Brock to eat breakfast before college. She asked, ‘‘In your whole life, did your ever imagine you’d be dating your professor?’’ Brock said, ‘‘Well, you never know what’s going to happen in your life. To answer your question, no. I didn’t imagine that.’’

Crystal smiled and said, ‘‘You make me happy, Brock.’’ Brock replied, ‘‘You make me happy, too.’’ Then Crystal remembered that she had a morning class. She said, ‘‘Gotta go, I have a morning class to teach.’’ Brock said, ‘‘Okay, see later you in class.’’ Crystal said, ‘‘Love you.’’ Brock said, ‘‘Love you too.’’ Crystal got up and left to teach. Brock left twenty minutes later.

Crystal arrived to the college campus. As she walked to her

class, she wondered, ‘‘I hope Brock asks me to marry him already. I know we’re going on our three month anniversary. But still, I’m not getting any younger, and I don’t want to a forty year old woman who’s barely becoming a mom.’’ As she walked to her class she saw Carol, she went up to Carol and said, ‘‘Listen, hhhhhuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhh………’ ’ Carol said her name. Crystal said, ‘‘I know I came harsh, and I know you didn’t know that Brock and I were secretly dating. I came here to apologize for the way I acted towards you. It was completely immature of me. And

when me and Brock get married, I’d like for you to come.’’ As much as Carol wanted to date Brock, she said, ‘‘Okay, thanks for the invite. I’ll go to support Brock’s happiness.’’

Crystal said, ‘‘You’re welcome.’’ Crystal was going to walk away, when Crystal asked, ‘‘Was Brock always stubborn and brutal, or did his break-up made him like that?’’ Carol said, ‘‘He’s been like that as long I’ve known him.’’

Crystal said, ‘‘Huh. Well, hopefully my charm and green eyes changes him. Laters.’’ They both said bye and went to class.

Brock arrived to college to work-out, after finished, he got a text asking, ‘‘Handsome, are you here already?’’ Brock said, ‘‘Yes, I’m working out.’’ A few seconds later, Brock texted saying, ‘‘Listen I need to tell you something.’’ Crystal texted back, ‘‘Okay, what’s it about?’’ He texted, ‘‘This has to be in person and in private.’’ Crystal’s heart started raising, good and bad scenarios started playing in her mind. She heard voice saying, ‘‘Woman.’’ Crystal jumped.

Alyssa walked inside the classroom. She asked, ‘‘Are you alright, woman?’’ Crystal said, ‘‘Y-yeah, I’m alright.’’ Alyssa chuckled and said, ‘‘Man, Crystal. You really let the people know that you have aggression towards that girl.’’ Smiling afterwards. Crystal ignored her comment. Crystal asked, ‘‘When your boyfriend says, he needs to tell you something in person --- what do you think it means?’’ Alyssa responded, ‘‘Well, he could possibly want take things the next level, maybe he wants to take a break, or maybe he wants

to move on.’’ Then Alyssa said, ‘‘I got to woman.’’ She walked to the door, she said, ‘‘I don’t think that Brock would break-up with you, he loves you. You can see it in his eyes.’’ She left to her classroom.

The day went on, it was the last class of the day. Crystal saw Brock entering the classroom. Crystal’s heart began to beat fast. She waited for the rest of the students to come in. Once she saw no more students coming in, she closed the door, and started her class. After two hours, Crystal said, ‘‘Okay, class. I’ve got personal

business to attend to. You guys are dismiss.’’ They all left, Brock was the last one, and he walked up Crystal.

Crystal asked, ‘‘What do you want talk about?’’ Brock said, ‘‘Let’s go to the park. We should talk there.’’ Crystal said, ‘‘Okay, let’s go.’’ So they went to the park, as they walked through the park holding hands. Brock said, ‘‘Crystal.’’ She looked at him. ‘‘Professor Davis, we’ve been dating for a while now. And we make each other happy, we laughed, we shouted, like a lot. Out of all that, I still can’t and don’t want to picture

my future without you. You’re just amazing. I love you with all of my heart. Now I ask, Crystal Marie Davis.’’ Crystal’s heart was pounding out of her chest. ‘‘Crystal Marie Davis, will you………. Will you change your last name to Sanchez? What I’m trying to say, is……….. will you marry me?’’ A big smile appeared on Crystal’s mouth and she said,

‘‘Yes, Brock. Yes I’ll marry you.’’ He kissed her, she said, ‘‘Yeaah.’’ Then she began to talk gibberish. After that they went to eat and invited Alyssa.

Brock, Crystal and, Alyssa were eating. Then Alyssa asked Brock, ‘‘If GOD so loving, why HE would send someone hell for being homosexual?’’ Brock said, ‘‘HE won’t send someone to hell for being gay. They’ll go to hell homosexual behavior. Check this out, Crystal and I love each other. So we have desire to sleep together. We are not allowed to sleep together before marriage, GOD will hold it against us, if we choose to sleep together.’’ Alyssa asked, ‘‘Is sex a sin?’’ Brock said, ‘‘No, any sexual activity outside of marriage is a sin.’’

Alyssa asked, ‘‘How can GOD create homosexuals?’’ Brock responded, ‘‘Well, the real question is……… how do we actually know the GOD made you or anybody to be attracted to the same gender.’’ He continued saying, ‘‘All of us have certain things that we're not supposed to. Because we live in a sinful world, we all are sinful people, that’s why Jesus came. To die for us and save us.’’ Alyssa asked, ‘‘Is that desire wrong to have?’’ Brock said, ‘‘That’s why I used me and Crystal.’’ Then Crystal said, ‘‘Professor Davis.’’

Brock said, ‘‘Okay fine, Professor Davis as an example. We want to sleep together. But we don’t act on it because it’s a sin to sleep together before marriage.’’

Crystal took a drink of her beverage and said in her mind, ‘‘Yet you slept with that skank.’’ Alyssa replied, ‘‘Who’s to say that you shouldn’t be with the same gender.’’ Brock said, ‘‘I can’t say anything because I’m not the Creator of the universe.

Alyssa replied, ‘‘Okay………………. who’s to say, it’s not the same as Crystal loving you?’’

Brock said, ‘‘Like I said, I’m not making the rules. You have define what you mean by love. Can you love the same gender? Yes you can. But you shouldn’t go beyond platonic relationship.’’

Alyssa asked, ‘‘How about transgenders? Lately, some people feel like they’re the opposite gender, and they want to change genders. Is it wrong? And if it’s okay to go to the genders?’’ Brock said, ‘‘Okay, if I say, I’m a five foot five Russian woman. Am I one?’’ Crystal said, ‘‘Ew, no gross. I’m not attracted to women.’’ Brock asked, ‘‘Am I one, yes or no?’’

Alyssa looked at Brock like if he was crazy. Brock said, ‘‘It’s a psychological disorder, like anorexia, if someone’s says they’re fat when they’re skinny, that’s a psychological disorder. Yes, we need to have compassion for these people. But, transgender is wrong.’’ Alyssa said, ‘‘Well.’’ She knew he was right. Crystal ask, ‘‘Can I tell her?’’

Brock asked, ‘‘What?’’ She whispered in Brock’s ear, He said, ‘‘Yeah.’’ Crystal told Alyssa, ‘‘We’re getting married.’’ Alyssa said, ‘‘Congratulations, when is the wedding?’’

Brock said, ‘‘In two months.’’ Alyssa said, ‘‘I’m so happy for you.’’ Crystal said, ‘‘You should come to church.’’ Alyssa said, ‘‘I might go sometime.’’ Then Alyssa said, ‘‘I can’t wait for the ‘‘Sex In The City’’ movie.

Brock asked, ‘‘You like that stupid show?’’ Alyssa said, ‘‘Kinda.’’ Brock said, ‘‘Why do women make a big deal when guys watch adult movies? Yet they watch that show, it’s practically the samething.’’

Alyssa was about defend the show, then Alyssa realize that Brock was right. They realized it was time to go to class, they went to college.

Crystal went to the college administrator, they asked, ‘‘What are you here for ma’am?’’ Crystal said, ‘‘I’m quitting.’’

They asked, ‘‘Why are you leaving?’’

Crystal said, ‘‘I’ve been dating one of my students, and we decided to get married. So, I’m going to clean up my class. I’m

going to give the key to my class.’’ She walked out of the office.
