Starlit Stroll
Ch. 3
The Question Disclaimer: I still don't own the Ducks.
Authors Note: Thanks to Angel362 who was my first reviewer. *big smile*. This is the Final chapter of my first fanfic. Yeah!
Duke and Mallory sat down lightly and relaxed for a few moments. Mal's head rested gently on Duke's shoulder. As he pulled her closer to him and rested his chin on her head; she sighed contentedly. They stayed in that way for several minutes just savoring the love they shared. After a few wonderfully silent moments Duke lifted his head, put his hand under Mallory's beak, and brought her face up to kiss her. The two moved apart after a second and stared at each other.
He stood up gently, pulled her up with him and said "I have somethin' to show ya". The walked down a few more path's until they came to a small grove the trees that surrounded them were covered in pale pink blossoms. "It's beautiful " Mallory breathed. " Not nearly as beautiful as you" Duke whispered in her ear as he wrapped his arms around her waist. He deeply inhaled the scent of her hair. It smelled like strawberries 'how fitting' he thought to himself.
He backed away from her then walked around in front of her and knelt down taking her hand in his own. After a fleeting moment of confusion it registered to Mallory what he was doing and tears of joy sprang into her beautiful blue eyes. Suddenly out of nowhere a small diamond ring appeared.
"Mallory McMallard', Duke began "I love you more than anything and I can't live without you. I nearly gave up hope on a full and satisfying life after we came here; I gave up on love. You've given me a reason to love again and to hope again. You're every thing I ever dreamed of and so much more. You're beautiful, loving, kind; you're everything I could ever dream for or want. I guess what I'm trying to say is will you marry me". He slowly slid the ring on her finger "It reminded me of you" he said " see it has rubies, but they're not as red as your hair and it has sapphires but they're not nearly as blue as your eyes".
By now her face was covered with tears that had fallen from those 'bluer than sapphire' eyes. However, the rest of her face showed that this was the happiest she had ever been. "Oh yes, yes Duke there's no one I would rather be with; oh I love you so much" she half sighed half squealed as she hugged him and ran her fingers through the hair that fell lightly at the nape of his neck. As they stepped back and looked at each other Mallory realized, not for the first time that night, how handsome Duke really was. His good eye was the color of melted chocolate and his perfectly straight teeth were whiter than snow. While being bathed in the moonlight his dark gray feathers seemed to glow. She leaned forward to kiss him and thus sealed a pact that would last a lifetime.
