"M-Monica!"
"Alfred F. Jones, you really are a nosy, arrogant, selfish, self centered liar!" Every word that came out of her mouth made Alfred shrink. "You never keep your promises, now and then, you say you're the hero but it's all a lie!" This made Alfred lift his head, then? When did he…? "Ah! Monica you remember! You remembered our promise from when we were younger!" Alfred shot off the bed and rushed over to Monica, but she took a step away from him. Her face was red from rage, her fist balled so hard that her knuckles were turning white. "How could I possible forget, you…you never came back for me." Monica now had tears in her eyes and Alfred lowered his head. "You are my fiancé…and and you forgot. You didn't keep your promise, that's why I had Japan bomb Pearl Harbor!" This made Alfred's head shoot up and his body tremble "t-that was you?" Now the tears where coming down Monica's face in gallons, "Ja that was me. I ordered Japan to do it! You, you just acted like nothing was going on in the world. You were suppose to be the hero; I thought no I believed you were a hero! It was our promise was the only thing keeping me going, and then…when you joined the allies and brought me down it killed me inside. You saw me, you personally saw me struggling, hurt, in pain, and you just…pretended it was nothing! You said you loved me right? Is that what you call love? If so I don't want it! I loved you! I loved you with all my heart! I rooted you through the war I worshiped you damn it! And you just, just…" Monica couldn't breathe, couldn't finish her words, so she just sunk, sunk to the floor crying. No matter how much she wanted to stop she just couldn't. But she visibly froze when two large warm arms wrapped around her, they were trembling.
"Monica, it's my turn now"
Alfred gripped her shoulders tightly. "I am so, so sorry Monica, I never forgot our promise, I wanted to go and sweep you off your feet but my boss wouldn't let me. I yearned to see you, to touch you, to kiss you. God knows how much I missed you it killed me inside. Every night I dreamed of you coming down the isle to me in the most beautiful wedding dress and we say our "I do's" and I whisk you away. No matter how hard I try I can't forget the taste of your mouth, so sweet yet tangy. I never meant to cause you pain, never I think the only reason I'm on this Earth is to make you happy. I never wanted to leave you during the world wars and I only avoided you because I knew I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I looked into your stunning blue eyes. I don't care about Pearl Harbor; I don't care what anyone says anymore! All that matters is you, so please Monica let me try one more time." Alfred got up and left the room but, was back before you could count to 3. He sat down in front of Monica and he had something behind his back. "Monica, I am so sorry for being an idiot please" he took a small black box from behind his back. "I've had this since the war ended, waiting to give it to you so, Monica will you marry me?" He opened the box to reveal an amazing green emerald gem on a solid gold band.
Monica couldn't believe it. He was stupid if he really thought. "Oi stupid American" You couldn't see Monica's eyes she was unreadable. "Yes" Alfred couldn't believe his ears "huh?" "Yes I'll marry you, you stupid American!" Monica slung her arms around Alfred's neck and kissed him, like a wife would kiss her husband who just came back from war. Alfred waited no time to kiss her back. With these two the ring didn't matter, the politics didn't matter, all that mattered was Alfred had Monica and Monica had her Stupid American.
