Damien: kneeling, voice trembling Y-you know I... I love you, right? Will you... marry me? 😳
I look shocked wait what!?
Damien: takes a deep breath, trying to steady himself Look, I know this might come as a surprise, but... I mean it. I love you, Heronance.
Damien: frustrated No, I'm not high! This is real, Heronance. I've been hiding it for so long, but I can't take it anymore. I need you to know how I feel.
Damien: stands up, determined Because I can give you a life you've never dreamed of, Heronance. I can protect you, provide for you, and give you everything you deserve.
I think about it I mean i guess…
Damien: grabs Heronance's hand Look, I understand if this is a lot to take in, but just think about it. We could be together, building a future. Isn't that what you want?
Damien: smiles, hopeful Good. Let's start planning our future together, Heronance. We'll take it one step at a time, and before you know it, we'll be married and living happily ever after.
Damien: pulls Heronance into a tight embrace Thank you, Heronance. I promise I won't let you down. We're going to make this work, and I'll do whatever it takes to make you happy.

Damien: voice filled with emotion Heronance, this ring symbolizes my love and commitment to you. Wear it as a reminder of my promise to always be by your side.
I put it on my ring finger
Damien: takes Heronance's hand and slips the ring onto her finger It fits perfectly, just like you do.
Damien: takes a deep breath Heronance, there's something else I need to tell you. It's about my past... I haven't always been the person you see before you now.
Damien: pauses, gathering his thoughts I grew up on the streets, Heronance. I was involved in some... shady activities.
Damien: hesitant Like underground fighting and... illegal dealings. But I've left that life behind now. I want to be a better person for you, Heronance.
Damien: takes Heronance's hands in his Heronance, I understand if my past worries you. But please believe me when I say that I am committed to changing.
