The next thing I know he dips me backwards, old style. I cant help but giggle in delight. He really does love me. We're together for and screw any stupid curse or council or trouble that comes our way. I love him. Thats what matters to me.
And with that his lips capture and I moan softly as he kisses me. I'm in heaven. I'm on cloud nine. As Cinderella would say...."So this is love"
We break apart too soon for my liking, no matter how long we had actually been here like this.
“We should probably get back and see what the others are up to. I want to hurry up and get this business settled so I can take you home, and marry you right and proper.”
I blink. Did he just say what I think he said? Images of the ring hitting the floor hurtle into my mind. What is he saying?
“You are going to be my wife Elizabeth Parker?”
I can feel my lips curve up into a smile. He still wants to marry me?...
He still wants to marry me!!!
Immediately my lips are on his and my tongue teases his mouth open. I move my arms tight around him, pulling him as close to me as I can. Eventually I pull away and see the look in his eyes.
Oops....I didnt actually answer him!
"Yes!" I say grinning at him. "Yes I will marry you"
A fleeting image of Maria passes in my mind and I suddenly wonder if she has recieved any feelings from me over the past hour...because is she has I bet she will have some questions about the rollercoaster of emotions I just put her through!
I quicky push Maria to the back of my mind. Right now all I want to think about is Max...think about how much I love him and how I am going to be his wife.
"I love you Max" I whisper, slightly huskily.
