Chapter 10: Will you marry me...Again

After their big adventure, Andros decided to take Ashley out to the fanciest restaurant in town. Everyone was going to be there to see the couple back together again. Ashley was modeling off her dress that she was going to wear.

She was wearing yellow high heels, a yellow dress, the necklace Andros gave her on her birthday, her hair was put in the wavy look again, and she had a yellow headband.

Ashley's dress ended to her ankles, a white belt was around her waist, the top half of her dress had yellow beads, and it was spaghetti straps.

When the doorbell rang, she hurried downstairs and opened the door. Andros stood there with a smile. "Wow! You look gorgeous," he whispered. Ashley spun around slowly so he could get a whole view of her. "Now I'm really interested," he chuckled. He placed his hands on her waist and smiled at her. "Are you ready to go?" He asked. She nodded and then they left. She looked at Andros's outfit with a smile.

He was wearing black shoes, black pants, a red button-up shirt, and his hair was pulled back in a half-ponytail.

Once they arrived at the restaurant, she smiled to see her friends and family there to see Andros again. "Andros, welcome back," T. J. greeted.

"Thanks, but I have to return to KO-35 in a few days," he stated.

Ashley looked at him in disbelief. "Can't you stay longer?" Cassie asked.

"I wish I could, but I have a planet to take care of," he replied.

Ashley felt her heart break at the thought of her lover leaving her on earth again.

When they got onto the dance floor, a beautiful slow song started.

Everybody has something

They had to leave behind

One regret from yesterday

That just seems to grow with time.

There's no use looking back or wondering

(or wondering)

How it could be now or might've been.

(or might've been)

Oh this I know

But still I can't find ways to let you go

I never had a dream come true

Till the day that I found you

Even though I pretend that I moved on

You'll always be my baby

I never found the words to say

You're the one I think about each day

And I know no matter where life takes me to

A part of me will always be with you

Somewhere in my memory
I've lost all sense of time
And so my road can never be cos yesterday is all that fills my mind
There's no use looking back or wondering
How it could be now or might have been
Oh this I know but still I can't find ways to let you go

Ashley sighed sadly and leaned against him. "Must you go?" She asked. Andros lifted her chin up to see the tears glistening in her eyes.

"I must go back, I have the duty to my people, but I promise that no matter what, I'll always love you," he replied.

Then they shared a passionate kiss so he could seal that promise.

I've never had a dream come true
Till the day that I found you
Even though I pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be my baby
I never found the words to say
You're the one I think about each day
And I know no matter where life takes me to
A part of me will always be

You'll always be the dream that fills my head
Yes you will, say you will, you know you will
Oh baby, you'll always be the one I know I'll never forget
There's no use looking back or wondering
Because love is a strange and funny thing
No matter how I try and try I just can't say goodbye
No, no, no, no

"Ashley, I've been meaning to ask you something," he stated. She then watched as he went down on one knee, grasped her hand in his, and he looked up into her eyes. "Ashley Hammond, will you marry me...again?" He asked. Their friends and family smiled to see such a happy proposal. Andros then took a ring from his pocket. Tears of happiness were falling from her eyes.

"Yes, Andros, I'll marry you," she replied.

He placed the ring on her finger and picked her up in a carrying position. Ashley laughed as he spun her around in a circle. Her dress swirling around them when he stopped. "I love you, Ashley," he whispered.

"I love you too, Andros," she whispered back.

Then they shared a much deeper and a more passionate kiss.

I've never had a dream come true
Till the day that I found you
Even though I pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be my baby
I never found the words to say (words to say)
You're the one I think about each day
And I know no matter where life takes me to
A part of me will always be
A part of me will always be with you
