Silver didn't know what to do. Sure, he had been dating her for quite a while now, not to mention he had known her since they both were children. He sighed, as he looked at the ring in his hand. It was made of silver; pure silver and it had a small purple amethyst in the front. There also was a sentence engraved: "Pro dilectione mea dedi." He sighed again as he put the ring back into a little box, and stood up. There was no way around. He had asked her out for dinner a few days ago and he wanted to make it very special. Silver had made a reservation in the finest restaurant he could afford and had even bought himself a new outfit. He wanted to go perfect, just for her. And then he decided to make the step. He wanted to spend the rest of his life with her, and wondered what her answer would be. Soon he fell asleep while dreaming of her.

"Amy, do you really think this isn't too much?", I asked, rolling my eyes, while getting out of an outrageous dress. It was not only very tight and short, but also the color was eyeburning. Neon green, ugh. "Hmmm… Maybe you're right, sorry, Blaze." I rolled my eyes again. That was just typical Amy. When you tell her, she won't believe you. She came over to my apartment this morning, and before I could even say "Good Morning" she was already gone into my bedroom. When I came after her, I saw her digging in my wardrobe. She mumbled: "No…no…hell no…ugh, Blaze, why don't you have anything you can wear on a date?" When I looked like a jigsaw puzzle, she told me: "Haven't you checked Twitter today?" When I shook my head, she grinned: "Then you better should!" I sighed then I started my MacBook. I had gotten it as a graduation present a few years ago. I smiled when I thought of that day. My whole family was there with me. After the ceremony, we went to a little restaurant in town. We took Silver with us, since he doesn't have any family that could've celebrated with him… My dreams were suddenly interrupted when Amy shouted: "Blaze, what's taking you so long?" "Sorry!", I shouted back. When I entered my password and my laptop was done loading, I opened Safari. I clicked on my twitter bookmark. Then I looked at my twitter page. There was a new message from Silver, my boyfriend, and about 1000 new messages from Amy. I sighed again, deleted Amy's messages, and got through to Silver. I smiled when I read it. It simply said: "Blaze, will you go out with me on Friday?" I replied: "Of course, my silver hedgie " I laughed out loud: "Ok Amy, I read it, but I still don't understand why you're so hyper about that!" She came to me, a big smile on her face: "You wouldn't understand if I told you! So what do you say, can I help you with your outfit?" "Yes, you can!", I laughed. "Yippee! Then let's go shopping!" Again, I sighed. "But Amy, isn't there something I can wear in my wardrobe?" "Nope, checked it all, besides, you want to go perfect for Silv, don't you?" "Y-yes, of course!" "Well then, let's go." That was about 3 hours ago. We took the subway, and soon got to Macy's (Yes, I live in NYC ). Amy was looking through the dresses by herself, and I decided to trust her. I would soon regret this choice. After what felt like 5 hours, Amy finally stopped searching. She pulled out a long; dark purple dress, with a few hints of Silver. "Oh Amy, that's perfect!" She grinned to me as an answer: "C'mon, try it on!" I chuckled as I got into a changing room. When I got out, Amy looked like she would pass out every second. "Blaze, you look so beautiful! I'm sure Silver will love it!" "I don't doubt it. But have you seen the price tag? That's half the rent I pay every month!" "Oh, c'mon. Don't you think Silver's worth it?" "True…", I mumbled. "Told ya!", She looked satisfied. "And besides", I told her and grinned. "It's much better than that neon green dress you picked!" "Oh, I almost forgot! You still need some accessoires that match your dress! And you'll need shoes!" After another 2 hours I finally had my purple dress, a white stole and some silver high heels. When we arrived back at my apartment, she sang: "I'll come over tomorrow to help you with your make-up!" When I looked puzzled again, she asked: "Blaze, you know that today is thursday, right?" "Oh yeah! I just didn't remember right away!" Wow, what a lame sentence. I mentally face palmed.
"Anyway, I'll come over then! Just tell me when!" "Sure thing Ames! See you!" She waved, smiled and then entered the elevator. I opened my door. Suddenly, I had to smile myself. My life is just perfect right now.
