Hey everyone, sorry for not updating in a while. With school being half way over and all, things have stepped u and become harder and harder for me, I've been through so many test my head hurts. I'm really trying to update frequently, it's just hard to. Well anyways on to the next chapter of the story! Please Review!
Chapter 6: The Proposal
6 months after Serenity's Kidnapping
The sun was just rising when Serenity awoke from peaceful slumber. She'd been in the palace for about 6 months now and her friends moved in about a month after her. Somehow she'd convinced Atem to let her friends move in. As Serenity awoke, she stretched and got dressed into the robes that Atem ordered for her. Once she was dressed, she met u with her friends, Amy, Raye, Lita, Mina, Amara, Michelle, Trista, and Hotaru.
"Good Morning, Girls!" Serenity said cheerfully.
"Good Morning, Sere." Everyone said
They all went to breakfast and saw that the dining hall was being set up for what looked like a wedding or a carination of a new queen. The girls said good morning to everyone, sat down, and began to eat breakfast. After everyone was finished, Atem whispered to Serenity, "Meet me in the gardens during lunch."
She understood and the girls and she went back to Serenity's Chambers. Once inside her chambers, Yama came out of her soul room and started to talk.
"I don't think that Atem's father likes me that entire well." Serenity said with a sigh.
"What makes you say that Sere?" Amara and Michelle asked.
"Have you seen the faces he gives me every time I walk by him, or he walks be me?"
"Yea we have Sere." Amy and Raye said.
"That's why I said what I did."
"Oh okay." The girls said together.
As the day went on, the girls played many games like truth or dare and other games along those lines. Lunch came around and they all went to the dining hall. When they got there, Serenity noticed that Atem wasn't there. So she went over to Seto, the one person she loved to annoy, and asked, "Seto?"
Seto looked up from the tablet he was reading and said, "Yes Serenity?"
"Do you know where the Pharaoh Is at?"
"No, I don't Serenity."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes I am sure, but didn't Pharaoh Atem tell you to meet him somewhere?" Seto asked because Serenity was starting to annoy him.
"Oh yeah!" Serenity remembered.
After that, Serenity was off to the gardens. She ran through the palace as fast as she could to get to the gardens. Once she was there, she saw Atem sitting on a stone bench next to the pond. Serenity casually walked over to the bench and called Atem's name
Atem turned around and saw Serenity. He saw that she was panting heavily and started to laugh.
"What's so funny?" Serenity asked
"Nothing, I just had a feeling you would forget." Atem said
Serenity pouted at Atem, but he didn't care because he loved her with all of his heart. Atem lead Serenity to the stone bench and Sere sat down. Atem sat next to his future queen or so he hoped.
"Serenity," Atem started causing Sere to look in his direction, "We've known each other a long time and you love me as much as I love you right?"
"Atem, why would you ask that question? I love you with all my heart and soul."
"The reason I asked was because…" Atem got out what looked like a velvet box. He got down on one knee and asked, "Serenity, will you marry me and become queen of Egypt?"
Serenity was soooooooooooooo shocked at this, she couldn't say anything. Atem thought that Serenity didn't love him and had a look of sadness on his face. Serenity put her hand on his shoulder and said, "I love you so much Atem, of course I'll marry you!"
Serenity jumped into Atem's arms and had tears of happiness running down her face. Atem's arms went around her waist and Serenity's arms went around his neck, and he gave her a passionate kiss. Atem also placed the ring (a gold band with a crescent moon shaped diamond) in her left ring finger. They both went back to the dining hall to announce their engagement.
Well that's that. I'll try to get the next chapter up soon, but don't count on it. Soccer is going to start again soon then everything is going to change, well please review the story.
