Gabrielle POV
~~~flashback~~~
Astra: gabrielle?
Gab: yes?
We were on another walk on the beach at night like we enjoy doing every full moon
Astra: *clears throat* the s-stars are really shining tonight aren't they?
Gab: yeah they truly are wonderful
Astra: y-yeah...not as wonderful as you though
I feel myself blush a lil while looking up at the bright moon...i look at the waves...how the moon reflects on them and makes it so breath taking. I hear Astra do what i assume is sit down...she was always down to get dirty aha...not me. I stay standing
Astra: *clears throat*...Gabrielle...ever since we first met...i felt like i found my perfect match...like i found that one star in the universe that's mine. The person i'd move heaven and earth for...you're the best thing that ever happened to me
Gab: *chuckle* you're so sweet-
Astra: ... could you uh maybe look at me while i ask you something?
Gab: yes sorry what is...it?
I start to feel tears of happiness form as i put my hands over my mouth...i see her on one knee holding a small box with a beautiful ring
Astra: Gabrielle, would you make me the happiest woman in the universe and marry me?
Gab: y-yes! Oh m-my God yes!
She quickly gets up and i hug her hard. We kiss for a while, the only sounds being made coming from my tears and the waves crashing onto shore. She pulls away and smiles while putting the ring on my finger
Gab: i l-love you s-so much
Astro: i love you more Gabrielle...so m-much *cough* more *cough*
She kneels down again this time from coughing
Gab: Astra?
Astra: hey hey *clears throat* i'm fine...as long as i'm with you i'm okay
She gets up and puts her forehead onto mine
~~~end of flashback~~~
Gab: *sniff*...w-were here
Alan:...a park with rocks?
Gab: it's called a graveyard...where people are buried after they die
Alan: oh shit my bad
Gab: it's alright...you don't have to come you can stay in the car, the fact you came is nice enough
Alan: nah nah i can come
I smile a little and look at my ring as i walk to her grave. I replace the old dying flowers with some new roses i bought. Alanis walks up behind me as i kneel in front of Astra's grave
Gab: i....*tears up* h-hello Astra u-um...m-meet Alanis?...i don't know...i m-miss you so m-much
I see Alanis kneel down to show some respect but only AFTER about a minute of kicking dirt around awkwardly
Alan: so...you said um this is the day she pop'd the question?
Gab: *gulp* y-yes...it is
Alan:...shouldn't you celebrate the wedding anniversary not the day she ask-
Gab: s-she didn't make it to the w-wedding

Astra: hey h-hey...i am okay gabbie...s-sure *cough* maybe not in the b-best shape but...*gulp* every day I s-spent with you was *cough* p-perfect
