The Ring

Alyssa and Taylor were looking through Taylor's jewelry box, to find something that matches Taylor's dress for Shayla and Mirrick's wedding.

Alyssa pulled out a necklace that had yellow gems in the shape of the letter T on the silver chain.

"How about this?" Alyssa asked the Lieutenant.

"Sure," Taylor said. Alyssa put it on Taylor and then looked for another piece of jewelry. She pulled out a five karat, oval cut, canary diamond on a golden band. Alyssa figured it was from Cole, Max, or Danny, but she had no idea how wrong she was.

"NO!" Taylor screamed, grabbing the ring. She put it back in the box.

Later after the wedding...

Taylor locked the front door and ran to her room. She pulled out the ring and dug around in the jewelry box for the note that went with it. She pulled it out.

Taylor,

Will you marry me?

That was how her true love proposed to her, through a note at a candlelight dinner by the beach. She had said yes, but two weeks later he had died of a heart attack.

Taylor held herself as she cried, she slipped the ring on. A breeze came though her opened window, making her blond hair curls fly around her head. She knew it was him in heaven, wiping away her tears.

"I love you, Eric," Taylor whispered through tears.
