~*Alexandria's P. O. V*~

We all spent a few hours together just hanging out when Chris and I decided to go take a walk to the old park we use to go to. Our hands were intertwined the whole way.

"So, when is your next tour?" I asked trying to start a conversation.

"Next month. Do you......wanna come with us?" he wondered shyly.

"I wouldn't want to be a distraction or anything," I said.

"It's no problem at all. Rebel wants to come and we all want you to also. I do too," he admitted, squeezing my hand.

He looked a little.....tense? Nervous?

"Are you okay? You look like you're nervous or something," I asked.

"No, nothing."

We arrived at the park and sat on the swings just like we did almost everyday after school ended, on weekends, and breaks. We talked about times in school and laughed.

"Remember one time we came here with Balz and Ang?" Chris asked.

"Oh God. How could I FORGET that!"

*FLASHBACK*

Angelo, Josh, Chris, and I were walking to the park together. Usually it's only Chris and I but they decided to tag along.

It was snowing out so we all had jackets and long pants on.

"Hey Balz, $5 says I can beat you to the swings," Ang challenged

"You're on Parente!" Josh protested.

They took off running, they were neck and neck.

"$5 says one of them slips," Chris whispered.

Right on time, Josh and Angelo both fell and landed in the snow.

Chris and I almost died of laughter when they both were getting up.

"Whatever," Angelo hissed.

They continued their race, they both got their at the same time.

*END OF FLASHBACK*

Chris and I were laughing like it happened yesterday.

"Hey, what time is it?" he asked.

I checked my phone.

"6:20."

The Scranton sun was setting with gorgeous colors. Vivid oranges, yellows, reds, pinks, purples, blues.

"I love sunsets," I admitted.

"I love you," he responded.

I leaned over and kissed his sweet lips.

"Alex, I want to ask you something."

I was scared. What is he going to ask? Does he want to break up?

He got off his swing and squatted down in front of me, grabbing both of my hands.

"You know I love you, right?" he began.

"Of course I do."

"When you were in the hospital, I realized something."

"What was it?" I asked.

"I realized I don't want anyone more than you. You're all I've ever wanted, all I'll ever need. No one in this world makes me happier than you."

"What are you trying to ask?" I questioned.

He reached into his pocket and pulled out a black box. He lifted the lid off, revealing a small silver ring with a white diamond and asked,"Alexandria, will you marry me?"
