KYO POV
This was it. The moment I had been waiting for, for 3 years now. She looked confused as we stood, me holding both of her small hands in one of mine.
I went down on one knee and stared into her beautiful, trusting blue eyes.
"Tohru Honda," I started confidently. She was my future. "I love you more than anything, and you know that. I wouldn't rather be with anyone in the entire world. You make me happier than I ever have been. Just being around you makes my heart start beating faster. I want to be with you forever. Tohru, will you marry me?
TOHRU POV
What? This was not what I had expected, not at all. He wanted to marry me? But we're both so young. I realized all these logical reasons to not marry him didn't matter, of course I knew my answer.
"Yes, Kyo," I whispered.
KYO POV
I couldn't believe it. She was mine. Mine. She'd said yes, and now we were getting married. I slid a ring onto her left ring finger and kissed it lightly. I pressed my lips gently to her warm, white hand and stood up.
She was covering her mouth with one hand and she started to cry. I mean she really started to turn on the water works.
I wiped her eyes with the back of my hand and tilted her chin up so I could kiss her easily.
She collapsed then. I caught her and cradled her close to my body as easily as if she were a small child. I kissed her again then deposited her on the bed under the covers. I joined her in the bed.
She laid her little head against my bare chest and cried as I held her to me. When she had shed all her tears and finally fallen asleep, I kissed the top of her head and drifted into a deep and peaceful sleep as well.
TOHRU POV
I woke up at 7 AM. It must have all been a dream. None of that could really have happened. I took a shaky breath and raised my left hand so I could see if there was anything out of the ordinary.
There it was. It hadn't been a dream. On my ring finger sat a beautiful engagement ring. I sucked in a breath and studied the ring. It had a simple polished silver band, nothing fancy. However, the stones themselves were a different story. The diamonds had been cut into thousands of little shapes all arranged around a main, light blue stone set in the middle.
The ring was so intensely beautiful it made me want to cry all over again. I realized my head was still on Kyo's tanned chest, and I lifted it with a blush.
I looked at the face of the man I loved; the one I was marrying and my heart swelled with emotion.
I stroked that face gently again and again. In sleep, Kyo's features were unmarred with the stress the days held for him; his ever present scowl wasn't glued to his face.
I smiled. This man was everything I could ever ask for.
Kyo opened his blood-red eyes and caught my hand as I was stroking his beautiful face. He pulled me to him and kissed me affectionately.
He broke apart from me and smiled brilliantly. "Morning, sweetheart," he said, his voice ringing with the depth of his emotion.
I kissed him again, caressing his face as I did so. I knew I was home.
