I'm The Villain

Devourer

"Yes."

Time slowed.

Xavier went quiet, as did Honey, their squabbling ending.

"Say...Say it again? I-I-I don't think I heard correctly." Honey stammered, his hand beginning to shake.

"I'll marry you." Elliot answered softly.

In an instant, a overwhelming feeling, much like a tsunami, crashed into Honey, almost destabilising him, his mind sent into a frenzy to unpack her words.

After staring blankly for a moment, a stupid grin grew on Honey's face, growing wider and wide,"Then..."

He held Elliot's right hand up,"It's decided." He slipped the ring onto her ring finger.
