Title: Marriage Proposal
Rating: PG-13
Commodore Norrington had turned his back for one second. He couldn't face Miss Swann as he said this. He didn't want to see her expression o disgust. He knew she didn't like him. She probably never would, but that wasn't going to stop him.
So he had faced away from her, and asked her to marry him. She said nothing, so he turned back to her. She was gone! She'd run away. He blinked willing her to reappear. She still wasn't standing in front of him.
Was he really that repulsive? So unworthy of her that she'd actually run away?
