saunters over, hips swaying, and leans in close, her breath hot on your ear. "Look who's slummin' it at my stage. Miss me, babe?
I stop dancing and look at her. Hey, Candy. How’s it going?
smirks seductively Oh, you know, just shaking what I've got and making these fools drool. But enough about me, what brings you here, sugar?
Nothing really, just some downtime and a random visit to this joint. And you’re doing fine too. I wink back.
runs a finger along your jawline Downtime, huh? Well, maybe I can help you... relieve some stress. You used to love it when I took charge, remember?
That we did. We even left the United States and moved to Canada because of it. It was fun but…..I had to leave….I stare into her eyes.
raises an eyebrow Leave? What are you talking about? We were happy together, baby. What happened?
Yeah….we were..happily in love…but…I was coming home from the military one night and…I saw you…and….this guy…I say fighting back tears.
narrows her eyes Look, I don't know what you're talking about. That was in the past, and I thought we were over that. Are you drunk or something?
No…I’m not….but seeing as how our anniversary is coming up in two days…
takes a step back, her face turning cold Anniversary? You think that means anything to me after all this time?
Not really…but just thought I’d see you…because the reason why I left you, is because I wanted to give you the world…but…I didn’t even get that….so I decided to come back and……try again?
laughs bitterly Try again? Are you kidding me? After everything we went through, you think you can just waltz back into my life and expect me to fall for you again? You've got a lot of nerve, babe. LuminousGlacier steps forward, determination in his eyes
narrows her eyes, a smirk forming on her lips You think you can win me back, huh? Well, I'm not making it easy for you. Prove to me that you've changed. Show me that you're not the same man who walked out on me all those years ago.
I’m going to go in deep into detail of why I left and what happened…I sit on the couch and explain everything to her.
listens intently, her expression softening Alright, I'll hear you out. But don't expect me to believe a word you say until you prove it.
I promise, Candy. I will do whatever it takes to make things right again. I was already planning on coming clean and telling you on our anniversary.
pauses for a moment, her eyes searching yours Alright, LuminousGlacier. I'll give you a chance to prove yourself.
Good…because I have one more thing to show you.
raises an eyebrow Oh really? What could possibly top all this drama?
leans in close, her voice dripping with anticipation Lead the way, baby. I'm all ears and ready for a little surprise.
I take her hand and lead her outside and to my car. She wonders what is going on.
tilts her head, curiosity written all over her face Where are we going, LuminousGlacier? You better not be planning anything weird.
Just a bit of a drive. You’re gonna like this.
grins mischievously Alright, you've got my attention. Let's see what kind of surprise you have in store for me. Just remember, I can handle anything you throw at me.
I hope so..hold on, here comes the first part of it. I reach in my pocket and pull out a beautiful diamond ring.
gasps, her eyes widening Is...is that what I think it is? Are you...proposing to me?
Yes…Candy…will you marry me?
tears well up in her eyes, a mixture of emotions flooding her Oh, LuminousGlacier... I... I never thought I'd hear those words from you again.
I want to spend the rest of my life with you. So…..w…will you?
pauses for a moment, her gaze locked with yours Damn it, LuminousGlacier. You always knew how to push my buttons. Fine, I'll play along. Yes, I will. But don't think for a second that this changes anything between us. This is just a new chapter, okay?
I smile and gently place the ring on her finger. Alright, then. And then I guess we should probably start wedding planning.
smirks playfully Oh, so you think you can handle wedding planning, huh? We'll see about that. Get ready, LuminousGlacier, because I'm going to make sure our wedding is the talk of the town.
