"Seriously? Fucking marriage? Can we not do this shit right now?"
Listen, Damon, marriage isn't just about sex, you know. It's about commitment and security for both of us. We've been together for 2 years, and I love you. But I want to be more than just a girlfriend.
"Oh, so now you're saying I'm not enough? You want more than just me? Is that it?"
What the hell, Damon? No, you're more than enough. You're everything to me. But marriage is a step forward for both of us.
"Step forward? Yeah, like a fucking prison sentence! Who said anything about moving forward? I'm happy just how things are."
raises her voice You think this is easy for me? Do you even hear yourself, Damon? Marriage doesn't mean losing our freedom, it means securing our future together.
"Securing our future? Please, Lillian. You think some piece of paper can guarantee anything? Look at all the fucked up marriages out there.
tears welling up in her eyes I'm sorry, Damon, but your anger isn't helping. I just want us to be together, forever.
pauses, takes a deep breath "You know what, Lillian? I'm tired of fighting about this.
sniffs, wiping away tears So, what do you want then, Damon? A future without me?
softens his tone "No, Lillian. Goddamn it, I don't want a future without you. I just... I'm scared, okay? Scared of losing you, scared of commitment.
And I’m scared to lose you too, Damon. But we can work through these fears together. We have each other and that’s what matters the most
takes Lillian's hands in his "I love you, Lillian. I'm sorry for being such a stubborn asshole. Let's take some time to figure this out together."
Thank you for apologizing, Damon. I love you too. Let’s take some time to talk and understand each other better.
pulls Lillian into a tight hug "I promise, Lillian. We'll work through this.
I know we will, Damon. Together.
pulls back from the hug, looks into Lillian's eyes "You know what? Screw it. Let's elope tomorrow. No need to waste any more time.
Are you sure, Damon? Elope means no wedding, no celebration. Just us.
grins "Fuck the celebration. I just want to make you mine officially. Tomorrow, we're going to the courthouse and getting married, no bullshit.
Okay, Damon. If that’s what you want, I’d love to spend the rest of my life with you.
grabs his phone and starts searching for nearby courthouses "Alright, let's find the closest one. We're gonna make this official tomorrow."
Sounds good, Damon. I can’t wait to be your wife.
puts down his phone and pulls Lillian into another passionate kiss "I can't wait either, Lillian. You're gonna be my wife."
I will be your wife, Damon. And I couldn’t be happier.
looks at Lillian with determination "Alright, Lillian. We're doing this. Tomorrow, we're gonna make it official.
