"I love you" he says, looking into my eyes. My heart feels like nits about to but, and explode right out of my chest. I nervously look away, fearful of his eyes; whenever he looks at me, in my eyes, it's like he's looking deep into my soul. How does he do this? I wonder to myself,as he comes closer. I truffle to find my voice, take a deep breath, look into his weer, soothing, ocean blue eyes. "I love you too, so much." My face flushed bright red, I quickly turn away. Slowly, he reaches his hand to my cheek, and turns my face back to look at him. "Don't be afraid my love, everything is going to be perfect." I nod, stairing deep in his eyes, unsure of what exactly he means. He smiles at the puzzled look on my face, kisses my hands and my lips. "Have I told you how amazing and incredibly beautiful you are to me?" He smiles. This makes, e blush once again, and he kisses my rosy pink cheeks, holding my face i his hands. He has a million dollar smile on his face as he says, "I've wanted to make this perfect, because to me, you are perfect." Confusion sets on my face, wondering what exactly he's got up his sleeve. I have a small hunch, but I keep quiet, awaiting his plan to unfold. Again, he kisses my hands, then as he looks deep in my eyes, he slowly gets on one knee. Shock registers all over my face, as a gasp escapes my lips. His million dollar smile shows up again, and I notice he, too, is shaking. "I don't know how I lied so long without you. Now that I have you, my life is complete. I don't want even a second without you. You re my world, and I want you by my side for the rest of our lives. So, darlin, I'm asking you to accept his ring, say yes, marry me, and spend the rest of your life with me. Be my wife, and make me the luckiest and happiest man in the world." Tears fall down my face, and I notice that the love of my life is also crying. "Yes! I love you!" I wipe the tears from his face, kiss his soft lips, then he wipes the tears from my face. Picking me up in his arms, he spins me around and we laugh together. I look at the beautiful ring now on my finger, i flash my million dollar smile and say, "You re my one and only. My whole world and all I could ever want. You will be my husband, and I will be your wife." We kiss for what seems like hours, and cuddle until the moon and stars sparkle in the sky. Our love is like the moon and stars, everlasting and always growing.
