The Answer To His Question
Ana feels her heart race as she looks at Fen, while he is kneeling and proposing to her. "Oh, Fen…" She says, putting her hands to her face, a bit surprised but happy.
"Say you'll marry me." He repeats smiling at her and giving her a hopeful look. "I think we are made for each other and I know you would be a great wife for me. And I would do my absolute best to be a great husband to you... He looks into her eyes hoping she would agree regarding his feelings. "So be my wife Ana and make my life complete." He asks.
Ana feels herself getting emotional. Tears well up in her eyes.
"Yes!" She answers him. "Yes, Fen I will marry you!" She exclaims happily.
Fen grins. "Yes!" He slips the beautiful ring on her finger and gets off of his knee. He sits back down on the bench and leans forward and kisses her passionately. They wrap their arms around each other, and they kiss for a bit. They finally pull apart and Ana looks down at her ring. She holds her hand out and admires the beautiful princess cut diamond ring. "Oh, Fen it's gorgeous!" She exclaims.
"Like you." He remarks, grinning. He leans against the seat and puts his arm around Ana. She leans towards him and they put their heads together.
"I'm getting married!" Ana exclaims excitedly. And then a bunch of thoughts start running through her head. "Oh, my goodness, I have so many people to tell, so much I want to do!" She exclaims happily.
Fen touches her hair. "And I'll be right here with you." He promises her.
"Wait until till my parents hear!" Ana exclaims.
Fen smiles. "They know." He tells her slyly.
Ana sits up a little on the bench and looks at Fen surprised.
Fen nods. "Yeah, I actually asked both of them before I proposed." He admits to her.
"Really?" Ana asks smiling.
"Your dad was totally on board, your mom on the other hand…" Ana gives Fen a look.
"Was on board as well. She approved too." He says and laughs, enjoying teasing her a little.
Ana sighs happily and laughs as well. "Fen…." She smiles. "We have so much to do and talk about regarding this wedding."
Fen nods and looks at her. "Right."
"Like what type of wedding it will be. Is it going to be in a church, or the outside?" Ana ponders. "I kind of like the thought of an outside wedding." Ana comments excitedly.
"Whatever you want..." Fen says. "I just want you to be my wife." He leans towards her and smiles mischievously. "You know if you even wanted to elope, that would be fine with me." He admits lightheartedly.
Ana looks into his eyes and then makes a face. "Oh, Fen you're not serious." She says, and then laughs. "We can't elope… I mean my family would want to be there."
Fen smiles. "Yeah, I know, and my family would want to be there as well." He laughs. "I'm teasing you, well kind of … I just wanted to make sure you know you have options." He jokes.
Ana smiles. "Yeah…" She touches her lips. "Yeah, but you know... I don't really want a long engagement." She admits truthfully.
Fen smiles and shakes his head. "I don't want a long one either." He also admits honestly. "I would marry you tomorrow, if I could."
Ana smiles again. "Well, we couldn't do it as quickly as tomorrow, but we don't have to drag it out or anything." She states in a matter of fact manner.
Fen takes her hand and kisses it. "No, we don't. We can get this wedding planned in a reasonable amount of time, without dragging it out too long."
Ana nods. "Agreed. I really can't wait to be your wife." She says to Fen.
Fen grins. "I'm so happy to hear that, because I can't wait to be your husband." He gives her an excited look. "I'm ready to share a home with you, and wake up to every single day, at least every day we're not away on business or something. I mean living in two different residences, like we've been doing…" He shakes his head.
"Made sense, one reason given we both have been busy with our careers and you've were gone quite a bit at times…" Ana remarks astutely.
Fen nods. "Yeah, but now that we are going to be married, and I get a chance to reset and settle down a bit, we can live in one place together." He pauses and then continues. "We can finally come together and combine our stuff; under one roof."
Ana nods. "I like that." She smiles. "I can move in with you in your apartment."
Fen nods. "That sounds good." He shrugs. "I mean when we are together, you have spent quite a bit of time over there any way. And you often leave your stuff over there." He reminds her smiling.
"Now, I can just keep my stuff over there legitimately." Ana says and they laugh. Ana thinks some more and then she smiles again.
"Oooh, and our honeymoon… Where will we go...?" She ponders.
"Wherever you want." Fen says smiling at her.
"I want to go somewhere maybe overseas. Definitely another country." Ana tells him.
Fen nods. "That sounds good. And hopefully wherever that is, it has a beach…" He looks at her. "I'm not going to lie; I want to be on a beach somewhere. You, and me relaxing with some drinks on the beach, that would make me happy."
Ana laughs. "I think we can arrange that." Her and Fen talk some more and excitedly discuss their wedding plans, looking forward to becoming husband and wife.
