SONG - Stereophonics - Cest La Vie

The sun was beautiful as it shone everywhere, it was a great day, everyone was dressed up as Beckett was being promoted to 'Lord', he had a little thing for you. Kind of cute considering he was such a quiet man. But hardly not ruthless. On the day, you'd been dolled up, hair curled, body tightened into a corset. Sure, you couldn't breathe but it looked stunning.

Getting in the horse drawn carriage, you and your dad hopped in. As you drove down toward the ceremony, you looked out to see a ship with black sails approaching, you didn't draw your dads attention to it, they were just sailing, no need for alarm.

"You alright?" Your dad asked.

"Yeah, just a little tight on the breathing,"

"Hah, that's how all the women wear them in England,"

"Glad they know how to die young," you made a sarcastic remark. "Not that I'm ungrateful."

"I know that, don't worry."

Once you arrived, you took your reserved seats, some drinks and complementary food.

"Thank you," you said to the waiter. "Have you seen Beckett?" You asked your father.

"No, missing him?"

"Shut up! Just wondering, wanted to see him before the ceremony,"

"There," he pointed to the balcony overlooking the sea. "He's over there."

"Back in a minute,"

"Be quick."

As you approached the balcony, you cleared your throat, he turned around and gave you an innocent smile. He grabbed your hand and kissed the top.

"How are you?" You asked.

"I'm a little nervous," he held his weight against the wall. "There's a lot of people and high expectations."

"I don't have high expectations, I don't mean like that... I mean... "

"I know what your trying to say,"

You laughed, leaning your head on his shoulder, he wasn't used to being this informal. "Are you okay?"

"I'm happy," you looked to him and smiled.

"Why?"

"Sometimes, you're a bit of an idiot... I mean, sometimes you're a little,"

"You're doing it again, I got the idea," he laughed and kissed your forehead. "Look, I was planning on doing this after the ceremony, but I wanted to ask you a question. And feel free to be honest..." he got on his knee. "Will you marry me?"

"No," you said with a straight face, before blurting out your tears and laughter. "Of course I will."

He stood up and kissed you. Everyone gave a round of applause, seems like you'd gained an Audience.
