Zack sat in the Cafe, thinking of a past he could never forget.

' "Zack?...Zack, are you listening?" The female voice was sweet and irritated. "You aren't!! You are so-so--" She growled. "Your a robot aren't you?"

"I am not." he didn't sound too convincing in a monotone voice. "I'm just studying."

"For a test that isn't until next month! Come on, Zack..." He didn't look up. "Addy!" she ripped the books from him.

"Rose! Give them back!" He tried to snatch them back.

"WE are on a date! We! Not ME! Which means that you must participate! I'm not eating alone! I'm not dancing alone! And I am most certainly NOT going to watch the movie ALONE!" Rose told him in a harsh whisper, not letting the couples around hear her. "We, Not me."

"Okay." He set aside the books and ate with her. He waited until dessert to pull out a tiny felt box while Rose went into the "powder room". He pulled the ring from box, inspected the sparking diamond, and placed it on the crusted top of her apple pie. When she returned, she would of ate it if it hadn't of caught the light just perfectly.

"What is this?" She picked it up with her right hand.

"I know we're just in Collage but...how about it?" His hands were shaking under the table, tears were forming in Rose's blue eyes. "Will you marry me?" He waited for one whole painstaking minute...

"Oh, Zack." She tried on the ring. "I love you, yes, I'll be yours forever."

They were engaged for little more than six hours, dancing, movies, and a bar, then...

Shots were fired, blood spilled, Breathing stopped, the sirens, the lights, the blood, the screams, the vows of life...love...
She made it to the hospital with six gunshot wounds to her chest. Zack never knew if she lived or was gone forever...because...

Her body went missing.'

"Zack, Are you okay?" Angela asked when she found him, his cheeks tear-stained.

(Tell me what you think. I'll write more if you want me to.)
