"Adam, yes!" she exclaimed, throwing her arms around my neck and
kissing me. A few people were watching now and smiling. "I love you so
much..." I whispered as I slipped the diamond ring onto her finger,
kissing her hand. She kissed me again, tears forming in her eyes. "I
love you too..." she whispered, watching the ring sparkle in the
light. I held her, pressed up against eachother. "I can't wait to tell
my parents!" she said. I chuckled. "They already know, hon. I asked
them before hand. You're their daughter, after all..." I said. She
wrapped her arms around my neck and I spun her around. "So, now that
we're getting married...should we go to the bridal place now?" I
laughed. "Sure baby, of course..."

We got into the bridal shop and Allison was amazed. I explained
everything to her - why there were white dresses everywhere, what the
little velvet pillows were for, and what a veil was. She even tried a
few dresses on. "You look beautiful..." I said as she came out of a
fitting room in a long white dress with a lacy bust.
We didn't buy anything, but we stayed for a long time before she was a
wedding expert and we decided to leave. The whole way home, all she
could talk about was how excited she was for the wedding. I listened
patiently, enjoying how happy she was. When we got home, she ran into
the house and into her mom's arms. "Look at this, mom!" she exclaimed,
holding out her ringed hand. Alli's mom tried to hold back happy
tears. "Baby, it's beautiful, you're beautiful..." she wept, kissing
her daughter's forehead. "I love you, mommy..." Allison said, shedding
a few tears herself as she returned her mother's kiss. Alli looked at
me for a second before wrapping her arms around my waist. "I will love
you forever, Adam." she whispered into my chest.
I was too choked up to do anything but fall more in love with her.
