It was official; there was nothing I liked more than watching Alice blush like a teenage girl while talking to a blonde stranger. Wait scratch that, there was nothing I liked more than watching Alice blush AND stutter while talking to a blonde stranger. A blonde stranger who at first looked like he going to burst out laughing any second but now was intently listening to the words Alice managed to get out with a kind smile on his face. I was honestly surprised that anyone could understand what Alice was saying when she turned that way; although no one would have ever seen this side of her other than me. She was the most confident person anybody could ever meet; but seeing her become all girly and submissive in front the blonde man was a surprise. Even though she was just 5ft 3 she carried herself in such a way that demanded respect. The whole room glowed when she was around, no one would deny that she was the life of the party. Not that the blonde wasn't just as amazing. He was hot; with wavy blonde hair and a panty dropping smile. Oh and his voice, that southern drawl, yum. Every woman within a 10 meter radius had their trained to the conversation because of it. One of them looked as if she was preparing to approach the blonde. Alice seemed to feel it too as she turned and glared at her as subtly as possible, not that it helped she was quite obvious; she couldn't do anything discreet if her life depended on it. I saw his smile widen when he noticed what she was doing. He leaned closer to Alice to regain her attention giving off the impression that they were a couple having a private conversation. He then looked up at the woman and smiled, but I could tell what he was really trying to achieve, he was asking her to back off; that he was taken. When she sensed the hostility, she turned and walked off, her hair bouncing as she went. He also seemed very sweet; Alice would never try to maintain a conversation for this long if he wasn't. They continued talking until Alice went back to being her usual self; too loud, too hyper. That didn't seem to sway him either; if anything it attracted him more, seeing as he now had an arm on the shelf where Alice was leaning. They looked like a couple who had been together for years; even though they had just met 2 hours ago.
But 10 years from now if anyone asked me if I knew that Alice would get married to that blonde man, I would've said yes I knew it the from the moment they first laid eyes on each other.
I guess you're all wondering what the hell I'm talking about; let's start from the beginning shall we? From the way they met till the moment he proposed.
This is their story.
