We were just a bunch of kids who had to save the world. What did we know about love?
He was madly in love with her. He knew she belonged with him. They had shared so much together, all of their highs and lows, regrets and dreams, weaknesses and strengths. They were made for each other.
He had found the perfect betrothal necklace. He had picked the perfect date. The night was perfect, and their costumes were perfect, and everything was just...perfectly perfect.
It never occurred to him that she might say "no."
