Proposal- chapter 3

Hold me tight/tight enough to break me/so that even in an icy wind or blizzard/I won't feel cold/I miss you/ every time I think of you tonight/my feelings only increase/I want to see you right now/

"Well, this went well" Vinnie said, and his friends were locked inside a cell made up stone walls and a single glass window made of hard fiberglass. "'Wonder what they'll do to us?" Charley said, looking around forelornly at the walls. "Nothing good. You can believe that."Throttle replied.

"Hmmph! You Biker Mice think you're so great." The mice saw Inguarious glaring at them from outside the bars, " Three big blowhards."

"Why don't you try saying that up close, bucko!"Vinnie replied, waving his fist at him.

"Yeah. If my arm wasn't chained up, I'd shut that big mouth of yours ." Modo said.

"Don't let Tall, Dark, and Scaly rattle your chains, bros." Throttle told his friends, "Besides, we got other stuff to worry about."

Everyone glanced in the direction he was pointing to see two large Reptilicon soldiers approach the door of their cell followed by Harley.

"Inguarious, what're you doing here?" She said, turning to the large soldier who stood around fumbling.

"You're supposed to be helping to steer the ship. Get going."

"At once, mistress." He murmured, slipping away.

One of the guards opened the cell. Harley stepped in the doorway.

"Vin, we have to talk. Now!" She said. Vinnie stepped close to Harley when a guard shoved him back.
"Not too close!" He snarled. He got up and was about to let that jerk have it when Harley held up her hand to the guard.
"It's alright."She told the guard, then to Vinnie,"You have to excuse them. They're a bit overprotective of me."
"No, kidding."
Charley was walking up to Vinnie when the guard held her back.
"Only the white mouse!"
"It's okay, sweetheart. I'll be fine."Vinnie smiled at Charley to reassure her. He then went off with Harley.

Inguarious was in his quarters watching them from a monitor. He frowned when he saw Harley grab Vinnie's arm and cuddle up next to him.

"I'll never understand what she sees in that mouse fool." He said, aloud to himself, "I care for her. I'm devoted to her and she doesn't see it!"

"Arrrrgh! I'll kill that white mouse!" He screamed, smashing his fist into the monitor.

They walked down a long hallway towards a large door. The guard opened the door. Vinnie was awestruck. It looked like a large living room. There was a huge red round sofa next to a cozy fireplace. A fire was already lit in to the sofa, was a small white cooler filled with ice cold cans of root beer. Harley sat down and motioned Vinnie to sit next to her. "That'll be all."She told the guard who bowed and left the room. "So what's this all about?" Vinnie asked when they were alone. Harley began moving closer to him till her face was inches from his. She then began caressing his cheek with her hand. "Sweet Vinnie. I'm so glad we're finally alone..."she purred, "I've dreamed of this moment."
"Harley, you sent out a distress call. You said you were in trouble." He managed to get out.
"I wanted to see you. It's all I've ever wanted."She murmured. She stared into his eyes. He stared into hers. The eyes he remembered: the ones as clear as a blue sky. Eyes that lit up with joy whenever he was around. She was the girl he had loved. The one he once pictured spending the rest of his life with. She gazed at him with those same eyes now. Before he could say anymore she had touched his lips with hers. He responded by kissing her back. Her slender arms went around his back as she pressed her body against his manly muscular chest. She felt his strong powerful arms go around her slim waist as his warm gentle hands caressed her back. At that moment, in his mind, they were back on Mars during the war. Vinnie could think of nothing else but the sweetness of her mouth. "Vinnie...Vinnie."She whispered near his ear, her voice broken by love and passion, "Marry me..."
He suddenly pulled away. "Wha?" Did he just hear what he thought he heard?
"Let's get married!"
