“Avery?”

I felt the familiar tingles that ran through me as I heard Colton say my name. A smile tugged at my lips. All these years later and I still loved him. His sweet smile, his gentleness and who would forget the awesome concert dates he took me to every so often.  

“Yes, Colton?”

Turning around I found myself looking into those big eyes, filled to the brim with warmth and love.

“Will you marry me Avery?” He asked as he got down on one knee.

Silence engulfed the restaurant we were currently at. All the breathe seemed to leave me and I gaped at the man, who had just asked me the question that any girl would dream to be asked one day by her loved one.

Six years. It had been six years since Colton and I had confessed our love for each other and we had loved each other since. Sure we had our fights and we sometimes argued like dog and cat but in the end we always melted into each other’s hands. After high school ended we ended up going to the same college.

My heart swelled with the memories of all those good times.

I looked down at the modest ring that sat in the small jewellery box and my eyes started to water and I quickly shut them. Even though this was a surprise I already knew he would be forever by my side come rain or shine because we were in love and without one the other couldn’t survive.

It wasn’t extravagant like the time he asked me to be his girlfriend six years ago. But it felt perfect because Colton was the one who was asking me to marry him. And that did it. I opened my eues and looked down into his own eyes.

“Yes Colton”

 The words left my mouth in a silent whisper and suddenly I was being lifted off the floor as he kissed me. It was a soft and gentle kiss. It was a promise that he would forever love me.
