The auditorium was full and everyone was happy. Most especially, Dreidan.

After speeches and speeches, and all the other formalities for a graduation, Draya and Avatia got their certificates. They took a lot of pictures and everyone was in a happy mood. It was indeed a good day. Dreidan told everyone that he was throwing a party for the graduates at his mansion. Ohh, the day couldn't get any better.

***

Later that evening, everyone was gathered at Dreidan's garden for dinner.

Avatia wore a red short evening gown which made her red lips pop. The gown was a gift from her grandmother. She was indeed a beauty to behold and the gown made her glow even more.

Italian and French  food was served and everyone was  enjoying their meal, and having fun

Italian and French food was served and everyone was enjoying their meal, and having fun. The evening was perfect until the butler walked up to them with cops at his back.

"I'm sorry sir, but i couldn't stop them." The butler said, panic edged all over his face.

Everyone stood up and Dreidan spoke up. "How can i help you guys?"

The senior police officer showed him his badge. "Good evening everyone, I'm S.P.O Macklemore. Mr. Vaughn, you're under arrest for a couple of illegal crimes and the possession of cocaine and heroin. You're advised to remain silent for whatever you say now would be used agai....."

Avatia cut him shut. "No, you can't just come here to arrest Dreidan cause he has not done anything illegal."

Dreidan held her shoulders to ease her temper. "Calm down babe. I'm sure this is just a misunderstanding. Mr. Mackle whatever, you can't come to my property and..."

The other cops who were standing by pointed their guns at him and the S.P.O spoke up. "I'll advise you to keep quiet, mister. You have to come along with us to the station."

The others watched in silence and fear and Avatia was already in tears. She couldn't believe her perfect day was about to be ruined. "No, sir, you can't take my man with you. He has not done anything wrong. He's a great guy. Dreidan tell them you've done nothing wrong." She cried while looking at Dreidan, hoping all of this was not true.

The S.P.O turned to her. "Keep quiet, ma'am." Then he turned to one of his colleagues. "Handcuff him."

Avatia could hardly believe all this was true. She watched in horror as the cop handcuffed her prince charming. "No, no, you guys can't do this." She turned to her mother and grandmother. "Mom, help me, tell the cops that Dreidan is a good guy. He can't go to jail. He has to be here. Here with me." As she turned to continue begging the cops, she became speechless. It seemed like her heart stopped beating and the world froze for a second. Because right before her eyes, Dreidan was on his knees, with a box in his hands.

Wait, didn't the cops handcuff him?

"Wha...what's ha-happening? I'm confused." Avatia stammered, using the back of her hands to wipe away her tears.

The truth was, everyone was as confused as Avatia, except her grandmother who knew what was happening. Just then, fireworks went out and when Avatia looked up, she'd never been more shocked in her life. Right up there, in the sky, was written;

MARRY ME, PRINCESS !

Draya and Kenny squealed in excitement, Grace was in tears, Conrad was amazed and Draya's father was proud. Marietta was so happy, because all this time, she knew what was happening.

Avatia looked down at Dreidan and all the cops who were smiling at her. "Marry me, baby. Make me the happiest man on earth. Be the mother of my children. I want to wake up to your beautiful face each day and cuddle with you every single night. You make me happy. You make me thankful to God every day. You're my heaven, Avatia, i need you. That's why I'm begging you to marry me. So please baby, i won't ask the usual 'will you marry me?', rather, I'm begging you to marry me." Dreidan said, smiling at her. She looked at the ring in the opened box and her heart melted even more.

Avatia's heart melted. This was the biggest surprise of all times and the fireworks made it even more romantic. Fireworks saying marry me, princess! Nothing could beat that. As she looked down at the man whom she loved so much, she knew there was no way she could ever miss the opportunity of waking up to him each day. So she did what she knew she would never regret in a thousand years. With tears of joy rolling down her cheeks, she turned and looked at her family and friends, the people who mattered the most in life, then she looked at the cops, or fake cops, then lastly, she looked at Dreidan who was still on his knees. She gave him a hard slap across his cheeks and everyone gasped. "Thats for scaring the shit out me." Everyone laughed at her outburst. Then she looked at everyone again. "And to your proposal, my answer is... a big fat YES."

Dreidan wasted no time in laughing, standing up and carrying Avatia, showering her with kisses and kisses. "I told you this day would be full of love. Thank you, princess. Thank you so much for making me this happy."

"Thank you for giving me the opportunity to spend the rest of my life with you, i love you, my Mr. Black. "

"And I love you even more, my princess."

Everyone was clapping and congratulating them. In deed, it was a happy day. The tiny cheery on top was that the fake cops turned out to be a life band that played romantic songs all night with endless fireworks.
