AN: This is the story of something that happened on a Dungeons and Dragons roleplay server for Minecraft. I didn't make this up, I just wrote it down.
Mediliyur Linch was very excited. Today was the day. She clutched the small box to her chest and breathed in deeply, the crisp air from the river town of Bray wafted in through her open windows. It was almost eight at night, and the elf wasn't sure she could stand the pressure. She was going to ask her lover of 4 years to marry her. Her heart raced even thinking about Silanna. She became aware that she was nervously tapping her ankles together beneath her chair. Was this really what she wanted to do? She knew that elves usually had open relationships, but Silanna had specifically requested that they only see each other. The door opened, and Silanna's naturally swift footsteps made it over the threshold and into the warmth of the living room. Medi's stomach writhed and churned as she clutched the box so tight her knuckles were beginning to turn white.
"Hey, Medi," Silanna casually began. "What was so important that you needed me to come over right now?"
Medi shifted her feet uncomfortably, hoping her tongue wouldn't betray her at this critical time.
"Well," she began. "We've been in a relationship for four years, and I've decided that I truly love you, and want to spend the rest of my life with you."
She realized she had gotten up out of her seat at the table so lowered her right knee to the ground, taking the box out. "Silanna, will you marry me?"
Silanna's hand darted up to her mouth to cover a gasp, but not quickly enough. Her eyes were wide open with surprise for a moment before tears began to form and she nodded slowly.
"I love you, Medi."
Medi felt overwhelming emotion as she slipped the ring onto her fiancé's finger.
"I love you too, Silanna."
They kissed, holding it for almost a minute in their euphoria. Silanna was the one who slowly pulled away, still smiling as Medi brushed her chestnut hair out of her eyes. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door and both elves looked toward it.
"Why don't you go on up to bed, Medi. I'll get it. " Silanna said playfully. Medi nodded and walked - almost ran - up to their bedroom. Silanna gracefully moved toward the door, opening it with what seemed to be a quick flick of her arm. In the doorway stood Camassia. A human, dark haired friend of Medi's. He wore a smile as big as his mouth would allow in addition to his usual clothes.
"Did she ask you yet?" said Camassia in a voice much faster and more excited than normal. Silanna smirked before replying.
"Yes. Yes she did."
"And what did you say?"
Silanna only laughed before planting her lips firmly on Camassia's. His eyes shot open as far as they could as he used all of his strength to pull himself away.
"Silanna wha-" was all he had time to get out before the moon elf was on him again. It was overpowering, the way she was on him, and he felt helpless to stop it. He could simply stand by in horror as his best friend's fiancé led him back to his house.
