Kiss me with such a force that I didn't even know how to respond it was amazing magical awful all at the same time. It was amazing because it was him and I love him and it was magical because everytime we kiss it's amazing like fireworks went off in my head and my whole body is on fire. But it was awful because it was today and yesterday and tomorrow that are reminders that never does anything set in stone nothing is there for sort certain everything you do everyday changes what you a second or a year and nothing can prevent that. I never wanted to detach myself from him I wanted this last forever even though I was sick I couldn't do anything about it I was stuck right there in that moment because I learned that present is all that matters. When I look at him I feel a sense of certainty although I shouldn't I feel safe although I shouldn't I feel mezmorized distracted even though I should. And that was the way it was supposed to be this lets me know that everything works out the way its supposed to be even if we don't want it to work out that way. I was so lost in thought when you catch myself from him and he took my left hand in his and he said to me the most beautiful speech I have ever heard and I was just awestruck.

"zoey I've loved you from the second I laid eyes on you it was legitimately love at first sight we had our ups and downs and twists and turns and let's face it loop de loops. But I know one thing for certain after this day the accident I know that nothing is set in stone that your face always changes but the one thing I know for certain is that I love you and I always will. I know that I love you as a walker all know that I love you when you're bit if you're back which I won't let it happen because I don't know how I'm supposed to live without you the minute we weren't together I didn't have anything to do. When you were gone I was upset because I didn't have anything else I was empty. So I'm not saying now but one day I need the certainty and the plan in line and that little force field kind of thing to fall back on is that one day people will look at you and know that you are mine." and it was at that moment that I knew what he was talking about and I look down at him and he got on one knee with a box out his hand and he said with every piece of certainty in his heart " one day I want you to be my wife one day when we're good and ready I want you to be Mrs Zoe grimes." paralyzed in that moment I couldn't do anything about it I wanted to shake hands and kissing me do everything I could do to say yes but could I, no no I could not although I tried with every fiber in my being to move I couldn't to speak I couldn't. That new show on across his eyes and I felt horrible and it was at that moment that I shook my head so eagerly I thought it was going to fall off and then he took my head and he cut my cheek and he kissed me forcefully once again and it was in that moment that he said the most beautiful word that I can think of the most nowadays that I can think of the one that gives all of us certainty and hoping everything in between.

"promise?"

"promise."
