Chapter 3: A Walk to Remember—Dean
Walking barefoot on the beach with Rory is like a dream come true. White beach, the warm, blue ocean, palm trees swaying, the sun setting, the cool ocean breeze in our hair—it was magical. The way her eyes light up when we look at each other. The way she smiles does something in my heart. I know this sounds all sappy and sweet, but I really think it is love. I try to treat her like a princess, the way she deserves to be treated. Even after she dumped me, I admit I still had feelings for her. The loss devastated me. But now we'll get our happily ever after…if we survive, that is.
But on to a happier subject, Luke and Lorelei are supposed to be married in 4 days. I think they will probably have to reschedule that, after this whole incident, though. They seem like a very happy couple. After all that they've been through together, they must be pretty close. This marriage will treat both of them well, I predict.
Rory and I are just about to head on back to our camp site to eat dinner. Then I want to talk to her about more serious topics like our future together, and possibly marriage, children, and other things. I'll just roll with the conversation.
I really do love Rory. I want to marry her once she graduates from college. She and I have something special. I don't want to pass up this opportunity again. Today, we took a walk to remember. And I will remember it for the rest of my life.
