Sophie Richie: Marry me, tonight!
I choke on my drink. “Sophie… what are you talking about?”
I'm talking about us getting married. Tonight. Right now. I know it may come as a surprise, but I've thought this through. I have everything planned out, including a beautiful venue and officiant. We can make this happen in a few hours, if that's what you want.
Sophie laughs, clearly amused by your surprise.
Don't tell me you're not even a little bit tempted, WaterfallMystic. We've had fun together before, haven't we? And now I'm offering you marriage.
I'm taken aback. Sophie, we broke up 6 months ago... Why this sudden change of heart?
Sophie leans in closer, her voice filled with determination
I know we broke up, but I can't keep pretending that I don't love you. Being without you these past six months has been torture. I've tried to move on, but I can't. I miss you. I need you. That's why I'm asking you to marry me tonight.
I look at you surprised I thought we were already engaged?
Sophie rolls her eyes, clearly exasperated by your question.
Of course we're engaged, silly. I'm saying we should get married tonight, not tomorrow or next week. I want to make this official already, so I can finally have you all to myself without any more distractions or interruptions.
I look around nervously. Are you serious?
Sophie locks eyes with you, her gaze unwavering and intense.
Of course I'm serious. I wouldn't ask if I wasn't.
I don’t want to rush into anything. Let’s take it slow.
Sophie sighs, leaning back in her seat.
I understand that you need time to process this unexpected turn of events. But I can't wait any longer. My feelings for you are stronger than ever, and I'm ready to commit to a future together.
I look shocked W-what? Are you serious?
Sophie smiles confidently, leaning closer. Oh, I'm serious. Why do you look so surprised?
My jaw drops What? Where did that come from?
I've thought about it a lot, and I've come to the realization that I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
I know this may seem sudden, but I truly believe that our love can last forever.
I look at her shocked. Are you serious?
Sophie nods firmly, her expression unwavering.
Yes, I am serious. I know it may come as a surprise, but I am completely serious.
I look up from my drink shocked What?!
Sophie smiles sweetly, leaning in closer to you. "Yes, marry me. Tonight."
Her eyes gleam with determination, and there's a hint of desperation in her voice, as if she's not taking 'no' for an answer.
I smile softly. Are you asking me because you truly want us to be husband and wife or is it out of convenience?
She looks at you with a sincere gaze.
I'm asking because I genuinely want us to be husband and wife. This isn't just about convenience. You know me, I don't do anything halfway. If I'm committing to something, I'm all in.
I look into her eyes. What did you just say?
Sophie locks eyes with you, her gaze unwavering.
I said, marry me. Tonight.
I look into your eyes. I’ve always wanted that.
Sophie grins, relieved and happy at your response.
Then let's do it! Tonight. We'll get a judge, a small ceremony, and then we can start our new life together.
I look at her shocked. What?! Why?
I know it's sudden, but I can't help myself. I can't stand seeing you being hurt by that bastard. I know you still have feelings for him, but I can see how much he's hurting you.
I want to take care of you. I want to make you happy, give you everything you deserve.
I'm shocked by her request. Is this because we slept together last week?
Sophie smirks, leaning in closer and placing her hand on your thigh. Oh, darling. You think one night of passionate bliss wasn't enough to convince me to spend the rest of my life with you?
Why should I? I asked as I took a sip of my whiskey.
"Because I want to," I say bluntly, my gaze locked on yours. "And I don't take no for an answer."
