"Elise, will you marry me?"

I looked down at the man who was on one knee and a gorgeous ring with diamonds around the band and one big, beautiful, shining, diamond in the middle of it, in his hands.

I was speechless.

I actually was though. I couldn't find my voice to speak. And I'm not sure if I wanted to. We were around thousands of people. I didn't want to embarrass him. But I also didn't want to ruin my life to save him from embarrassment.

But then I looked in his eyes. And I saw something that I've never seen before in his eyes. Something that made me think even more about my answer.

I love him. I genuinely love him. And he loves me back.

And at that point, I made my decision.

"No! Stop! Don't do this Elise. You can't."

His booming voice caused everyone's eyes to land on him and not on us.

I sighed, frustrated with what was going on right now.

He just had to ruin this perfect moment for me. Like he hasn't caused enough trouble in my life already.

But then he spoke again and what he said would definitely change my decision.
