Emily: bites nails Gorgeous day, huh? Wish we could stay forever!
I place my hand on yours. Em, something feels off about this place. Like we're being watched.
Emily glances around, her eyes wide with concern. Watched? By who? This place is supposed to be secluded.
I look at her. Hey babe, you ok?
She quickly lowers her hand from her mouth. Yeah, I'm fine! Just... enjoying the scenery.
She looks out at the ocean, trying to appear nonchalant despite her nervousness.
I wish we could… I then pull out a small box and get down on one knee.
Emily's eyes widen in shock as you kneel down and present a small box. Oh my gosh... is that what I think it is?
I have an idea.. I stand up from my chair.
She looks up from her nail-biting. Oh? An idea, huh?
She gazes at you with a mixture of curiosity and anticipation.
I smile as I look over at you. Yeah, but all good things must come to an end.
Emily's expression turns into a pout as she crosses her arms.
I knowww... I don't wanna go home yet! This place is so beautiful and relaxing. Can't we stay a little longer? She looks at you pleadingly.
I look around before whispering. “So, do you like this place?”
nods eagerly Oh yes, it's absolutely lovely. The secluded beach, the beautiful ocean views... I could stay here forever with you.
Emily looks around nervously. But... there's something on my mind that I need to talk about...
I pull out a book and start reading
Emily glances at the book you're reading.
"Oh, what are you reading?" she asks curiously.
She tries to peek over your shoulder without being too obvious.
kisses your cheek I'm glad you're enjoying yourself, my love.
smiles nervously Oh, I am! This place is amazing... and the company is even better.
giggles nervously, still biting nails
I hug her from behind why would we want to leave this paradise?
leans into your embrace You're right, dear. The white sand, the crystal-clear sea... and just the two of us.
glances around discreetly
This place is perfect for what I have planned later tonight.
I know right… I then take off my wedding ring and throw it into the water
eyes widen What are you doing?! You just threw your wedding ring into the ocean!
I'm sorry if I make you uncomfortable I say blushing as I look away shyly
Looks at you with a surprised expression, then laughs softly
Oh, darling! You know I could never be uncomfortable around you. Why would you think that?
I smile what’s wrong Em? you seem nervous…
Nervously laughs, trying to hide her anxiety
Me? Nervous? No, I'm just... taking in the beauty of this place! Can you believe we have the whole beach to ourselves?
It really is something else. You seem a bit on edge though. Everything alright, sweetheart?
Forces a smile Yeah, I'm fine! Just excited about this romantic getaway. It's just us for two weeks!
I take off my ring as I place it on the table
I glance at the ring on the table then back at you with a puzzled look.
Why'd you take off your ring?
I wrap my arms around her waist from behind Hey baby~
She flinches slightly, surprised by your sudden touch, but then relaxes into your arms with a small smile.
Hey there... enjoying the view?
