Chapter 2
"Sam, marry me." Sam stood there shocked. Maybe she heard him wrong. Maybe he was playing a prank on her. A smile crept up on her face.
"Ok, Jason. Really funny. Now what did you really want to ask me?"
"I'm serious Sam. Will you marry me?" Sam was speechless. She knew for a fact and resigned herself to it. Jason didn't love her. He thought nothing more of her than a best friend.
"Jason…" her voice trailed off. He was waiting for an answer. But hadn't she already given him one? She said she would do anything for him. "Yes…I'll marry you Jason."
"Good." He said simply. He looked somewhat relieved.
"Umm, I have to go." Sam left without saying another word to Jason. She ran off to her apartment. She slammed her door shut. All he said was Good? He just proposed to her dammit! And that was all he could say? He didn't even look her in the eye.
Sam processed what just happened as she slid down the door into a squatting position. Jason wanted to marry her. How many times did she dream of this? Why did he want to marry her? Maybe he hadn't thought about it properly. She would wait until tomorrow. She didn't want to think about it now. She felt something wet on her thigh and the tears flowed through her eyes for the second time that day. She didn't know if she was crying of happiness or the fact that Jason had been so cold.
