Holiday Lights Chapter 12: "There is nothing purer than the love we share"
The week after, Susan was cleared for duty even though she was weak and had trouble walking. To celebrate, Marcus arranged the party that had been missed due to Susan's accident. So on the 16th of January, the group, which had planned to hold the same party on the 24th of the last month, met on the way to Marcus's quarters, with the exception of Susan whom none of them had seen since she had been cleared to return to work the next day that morning. Stephen said, "I hope she didn't bail." "He loves her. It would kill him." They rang the bell and the door was answered by a grinning Marcus in a black suit. He didn't seem to notice that Susan was not there. They were ushered in, and on the sofa sat Susan. She was wearing a Russian dress. A white floor length skirt that showed only the last centimeter of her 3 inch heels. The shirt was red. It was full sleeved and went down to her mid thigh. Her hair was up in an interesting twist that made her look like royalty. She wore a Ruby and gold set. The necklace, a choker, showed through the see-through red scarf she wore wrapped around her neck. Susan smiled, rose, and, walking stiffly but steadily over to them, took David with whom she had seemed to have formed a bond. The evening went as expected: dinner and gifts until the last one was exchanged. After that Marcus went over to where Susan sat holding David and to everyone's surprise knelt and asked, "Susan. Will you marry me?" They were even more surprised at her clear answer, which came without hesitation. "Yes," she said as Marcus slipped a pure silver band onto her left ring finger. It had a sapphire centerpiece, which matched her eyes, surrounded by white diamonds. It contained the inscription, "There is nothing purer than the love we share".
Author's note: All references to Russian dress are made up. The money thing will be explained in my next story. I hope you enjoyed it. Please review. This is my first fic I have posted and, depending on the reviews, will continue.
