This takes place after the scene with Archie and Claudia in the tent when he tells her he imagines a day where he would ask her to be his wife.
Read and Review =]
Later that night after archie had finally gotten emily to fall asleep he laid next to claudia thinking about the conversation they had earlier.
"sometimes i imagine a night where i take you out...and make a big deal about it.... and it would end like this."
archie remembers when he grabbed his hand he could feel his heart beating he was nerveous as all hell but he new he couldnt turn back now. He took her soft hand and placed the wrapped up friendship braclet on her ring finger.
"when i ask you to marry me"
He studied her face for a while hoping that he would find some type of answer on it. When he finally built up enough courage and had prepared himself for what ever truth she may have been thinking he asked her...
"what do you think"
"i think i would say yes"
They had never really talked about marriage and the way he sprung it on her, he expected her to say no. But being with the kids who have been given second and third chances at life and after the time claudia spent in the hospital it really made archie think about what really mattered in life and how much he loved her.
But still aas he laid next to her he couldnt help but think would if he had asked her at that moment to marrying him would she have still said yes. He was deep in thought when he heard her ask the question..
"whats on your mind"
"what"
"you seem lost in thought ...what are you thinking about"
"you"
"me"
"yeah"
"good or bad"
"ha i was thinking how im probably the luckiest guy in the world"
"i dont know about that"
"no its true, your so kind hearted and beautiful....it amazes me sometimes"
Archies words had made claudia blush.
"why are you blushing"
"you know archie i can honestly say ive never been with a man that made me feel as good as
you do"
"hm i remember the first time i saw you"
"ha you mean when i was acting crazy and wouldnt let you examine me"
"i never would have guessed that i would be lying here next to you right now"
"Want to know a secret"
"sure"
"I feel head over heels for you the first conversation we had..in a matter of minutes you made me
so special i didnt think it was possible for a guy to make me feel as good as you did"
"really"
"yeah and so when we did the investigation a few weeks later at county i knew that i had to some
how let you know i was into you because i didnt want to risk waiting to long"
"so you gave me you number"
"yeah"
"you know your something else claudia diez"
"so are you archie morris...so are you"
they both shared a passionate kiss and than drifted off into a peacefull sleep.
