What Happened Next
(Part 1)
I've got everything ready now. The candles, wine, blanket, dinner and everything else I need (save the ring) is in the truck. I've got the ring carefully hidden in my jacket.
I'm gonna take her up to this spot in the forest I found a few years ago.
After a romantic dinner under the stars, I'm hoping to be able to propose.
I hope Janet was able to get Sam to buy a new dress today. It'll come in handy tonight.
Okay, she's home. After dropping a quick kiss on her waiting lips, I send her down to 'model' her new dress for me. She willingly complies.
When she comes back down a few minutes later, the sight of her takes my breath away. She looks absolutely stunning in that thing.
As she crosses to me I take her in my arms and place a blindfold over her eyes. I have to stall her hands when she goes to remove it.
"Don't Sam. I'm gonna take you somewhere. You'll understand when we get there. Do you trust me?"
"With my life."
Her answer is so honest it makes me smile. I just hope she says 'yes'.
(Part 2)
As he takes the blindfold off, I gasp at the beauty of this place. You can see every star with crystal clarity. Now I know why he wanted it to be a surprise.
He leads me over to a grassy spot. He then proceeds to lay out a blanket and dinner. As he sits down he gestures for me to join him. As I curl up in his arms, a feeling of complete safety washes over me.
After enjoying another one of Jack's delicious dinners, we sit around and talk for a while. I lean into his embrace and he kisses me lightly on the neck.
He removes one arm from around my waist and pulls something out of his pocket.
"Sam?"
"Yes Jack."
"Sam, I've loved you since the moment I first laid my eyes on you. Would you do me the greatest honor of all in becoming my wife?"
Reviewing is good for you! I swear!
