Help Me Escape From My Memories, Part 5
"What," I nearly screamed. I could feel a tear run down my cheek.
"Hilde, I didn't mean it that way, let me finish," he said
frantically. I calmed down and let him continue. "Hilde, I want more
than a friendship with you. I love you, I always have."
"Duo, are you serious? Or are you just playing," I asked suspiciously.
He gave me an exasperated look and then asked, "what do you want
me to do to prove it?"
"I don't know," was all I could answer.
Without a moments beat he was suddenly at my side. He looked
into my eyes, and then suddenly kissed me. I was too shocked to even
notice how fireworks popped into my head.
"Does that prove it, or do I need to do it again?" he asked. I
shook my head, he must have thought I wanted him to prove it again because
he did. This time it was slow and sweet and I could feel the fireworks.
I leaned into it. I didn't even notice when he broke the kiss.
"Duo, I love you too," I said suddenly. I didn't even know I
was going to say it, it just sort of popped out. He gave the first
real smile I had seen on his face in a long time.
Then he did what I thought Death would never do. He got down
on his knees in front of me and took my hand.
"Hilde, will you marry me?" he asked, pleading with his eyes.
The same Duo that could never be kept still, never could be tied
down, asked me to spend the rest of his life with him. All I could
answer was, "yes," and smile. Later that night another figure was added
to his picture.
