"FINALLY! It's warm in here!" he proclaims as he settles by the fire behind her. "This is so cool. Just us up here in the North Carolina mountains." "Yes it is." He says, putting his arms around her shoulders. "Give me your hand for a second. AH HA! I knew it!" she laughs after observing his palm. "What? You knew what?" he asks confused. "See that line in your palm that's really close to your thumb?" "Yea……" he says. "That means your overly romantic like me." "First zodiac signs and now palm reading? Are you going occult on me?" he teases. She ignores him and keeps tracing the lines in his palm with her fingertips. "Let's see if I knew you in a past life." She says lining up the bottoms of their palms and then placing her hand in his, his palm engulfing hers. She unfolds her hand from his and the deepest line closest to their fingers lined up perfectly. "See that? We knew each other in a past life." "Yes I've known Jade Willow and Helena Maria." He teases.
They sit still and quiet for a while enjoying the fire as well as the complete silence, which isn't heard often. "Do you love me Maria?" he asks. She turns slightly and looks into his eyes. "You know the answer to that. I love you with all my heart." He didn't say anything just lifted her hand to his lips and gently kissed every knuckle. "Do you love me?" she asks. "I'd die for you." He says and she busts out laughing. "What? Hey I was TRYING to be romantic here." He laughs. "Sorry babe. It struck me funny the DeadMan saying he'd die for me." "Well MARK would die for you. Taker would go through Hell and back for you." He says correcting himself. "That better?" "I knew what you meant baby." She tells him.
"How much do you love me?" he asks hoping this would work. "More than words can say?" she said giggling. "That was corny I know." "Do you love me enough to……" he pauses mid sentence and hands her a small heart shaped black box. "Love me enough to marry me?" he asks. She looks back at him her mouth open in shock. "Are you going to open the box or what?" he laughs.
Inside lay a white gold ring. The center was a round black onyx stone with a purple stone in the shape of a heart in the middle of it. Diamonds were set in the band all the way around the ring and 'My Maria' engraved on the inside of the band. "It's beautiful!" she tells him. "So….?" He asks. "Will you marry me?" "YES!" she says throwing her arms around him before giving him a kiss.
