“What do you say, Marn. Will you marry me?”
There were ten seconds of shocked silence before she replied, “Yes! Yes, of course I’ll marry you.”
I slipped the ring onto the fourth finger of her left hand. She was still looking at it, twisting her hand and watching as the diamond caught the light, when I reached down through the water and grabbed her ass to pull her as close as I could possibly get her.
This time when I kissed her, I didn’t stop.
Water sloshed over the side, and the candles extinguished.
The rest of the night was spent with only stars guiding our way.
It was all we needed.
THE END
