       The night had been... amazing. I stayed with Nick at his house and slept in his room next to him. Percy and April were in the living room watching movies. I felt my heart swell and the next morning was ten times better.

I looked up from my shoe laces quickly as Nick came back in, "Hey, babe!"

His face was lit up, "I want to ask you something..."

I stood, "Ask away."

       Nick came to me and knelt down before me. His face was bright and loving and I wanted to move back and tell him to get up. He fumbled in his pocket and then pulled out a small, black velvet box. It was small enough to hold a ring.

"I know your still seventeen, but you turn eighteen next week. I want you to marry me. I want to be with you always. Forever and always just like we said." He opened the box.

       My eyes stung and tears dropped down my cheeks. I jumped into his arms not even looking at the ring. I yelled a yes and downstairs I heard cheering. They were in on it. Nick had tears down his face and was crying. Crying.

I wiped his eyes, "Oh my God. I love you. Your amazing."

He slides the ring on my finger, "I love you too."

       I look down at the ring finally and gasp. It was a beautiful ring. The middle diomand was big and surrounded by twisting diomands.

"It was my grandmother's." He smiled.

I bent over and felt myself crying, "Its beautiful."

       The night was falling on us and I hadn't left Nick's house. We needed to get ready and soon I was taken away from Nick and taken upstairs to his mom's room. We were put into our dresses and our hair was pinned up elegantly. Two strands of hair hung down curly and my princess like dress flowed around me. The silver heels I had picked out had a floral design on them and as soon as I put my feet into them I felt like a real life princess.

"Oh my..." I heard Nick exhale behind me and I turned slowly to face him.

        His eyes watered and he nodded, unable to speak. Percy peered in behind him and his eyes caught April's widening. Both of them were dressed in very nice suits, looking very sharp.

"You look-"

Nick held up his hand, "Don't say how I look. You are the star tonight. You and April both look amazing. If I could name you a Disney princess it would be Snow White."

I blushed and talked in a sweet innocent voice, "Oh deary! Now, look at that!"

        Everyone laughed and we made our way downstairs and took pictures. After, we headed to the town hall where the ball was being held. I had been to the ball once before and it was really... different. There was so much dancing, slow dancing. It had been a night to remember.

        The town hall was lit up beautifully and people were filing in.

"Ready?" We all held hands for a while.

They all looked at me and smiled, "Ready."
