Jon Jon and Shan Shan part 4

This past weekend, on Friday May 27 was a year since he drove five hours to surprise me! The day started out like any other.. actually it was a pretty bad day after lunch because i spilt melted chapstick all over my new shorts and I felt bad all day! So I was kind of in a bad mood and kind of taking it out on jon jon... and by kind of I mean i did, until he politely put me in my place! I was sitting in the apt floor and he said... if i tell you something, promise you wont be mad at me? He then told me that our friend Jen was planning a surprise congrats for getting into grad school party for me. He asked if i wanted him to call her and cancel the whole thing because i felt bad! I of course said no, and went to change clothes! On the way to the party we got pulled over from the cops about ten minutes before we were suppose to be there. It was so annoying because we were going to be late! I had even worked on my surprise face! Jon was so confused as to why we were getting pulled over.. he was going 47!!! The cop stopped us and asked Jon to get out of the car so he did! They questioned him and then came over to my side to get the insurance and stuff out of the glove box. The cop then asked me to get out of the car, so i did. I was freaking out because cops sometimes scare me! The cop told us that before he could write the ticket one thing had to happen... Then Jon got down on one knee and said.. Shannon Marie Smith I love you so much will you marry me?! I responded with what any girl would say... Are you for real?! He then said yes i am! Eventually, i said yes! Then our state trooper friend ran out of the second cop car and hugged us! Jon had set the whole thing up with them! We then went to Jens house for the grad school party... Joke was really on everyone else because it was an engagement party! All of my friends were there! Jon knew how important it was for me to tell them and him not too because I wanted to be the first so he had to come up with a scheme to get them all to come! It was fabulous!!
