I am soooo pants at writing 100 words so they might be a little longer, don't hold it against me.
Dark & Light
They had been fishing by the pier at his cabin when he took the plunge, and now he was kneeling down in front of her.
Sam looked down not really paying attention to what he was saying until she felt something cool slip on to her ring finger.
"A light is always a symbol for hope. And it's the only thing you can see in the dark. You are my hope, Sam and I 'hope' that this ring shows how much I need your light in the darkness."
It took a moment to register his words. Her heart started to beat faster, all the way to her throat, and her eyes started to tear up.
"Marry me?" he asked.
She nodded, smiling so big her face felt in danger of breaking, and threw her arms around his neck.
There, on her left hand, was a distinct sparkle.
A sparkle of hope.
Thanks for reading
