No. 9

Rebecca Lily Alexander.

** BECKY'S POINT OF VIEW ** 

He stood there in front of me. I noticed that he was actually very anxious and a little sweaty. I began to worry about him. I could see that he had a lot to say to me. He had so much he wanted to get off of his chest.

"Becky I first want to apologise for all of the fights we have been having."

I smiled and said "What fights."

"Thank you." he kissed my forehead.

"You are most welcome."

He took hold of my hands. Taking a deep breath "Becky I need to get all of this off of my chest. I have been waiting to do this for a long time. Since we met in fact. I have been working on this for a long time. You need to know that I love you more than anything and I would not have wanted anyone else to have my children. I love our little family and I could never ask for anything more."

I noticed I was holding my breath.

"I want to have you in my life forever. There is no one else like you. No one else. You are beautiful inside and out. You are talented, fun, hilarious, arty, special. You are so many amazing things. You shine like nothing else. You value family and friends. You make everything in this world so much more colourful and spectacular. Every love song and quote sums you up and everything we have. I cannot describe everything. I can not describe how much you mean to me and how much I love you."

I could feel my heart falling out of my mouth.

He got down on one knee then got something out of his pocket. He opened up a ring box to show a beautiful ring "So Rebecca Alexander will you marry me."
