After we arrived to a beautiful outdoor restaurant, we get seated. There's a beautiful stage with an orchestra and an opera singer. This is so romantic. I see people dancing on the floor. I smile at an old couple who try and dance the night away. After eating, a nice chef picked meal, we all stand up and head toward the dance floor. "May I have this dance?" Elliot asks me. "Yes,you may." I tell him. He puts his hands on my waist as I put my arms around his neck." The Scientist" by Coldplay comes on.
"Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart
Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions
Oh, let's go back to the start
Running in circles, coming up tails
Heads on a science apart
Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh, take me back to the start
I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling the puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart
And tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh when I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing up tails
Coming back as we are
Nobody said it was easy
Oh, it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I'm going back to the start
Oh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ah ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Oh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Oh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh."
By the end of the song my head lay rested on Elliot's shoulder. He gently nudges me. I lift my head and stare into his eyes. He takes my hand and starts to walk outside. "I have something to show you." He tells me. I follow him to an open field where there are roses on the ground, candles lit, and a radio. I look up at him confused. He smiles down at me. All of a sudden I hear a helicopter flying over us. I'm sorry I mean flying toward us. It lands right in about twenty feet away. "Come on." Elliot says. We both start running for the helicopter. "After you my lady ." Elliot says while gesturing for me to hop in. I hesitate then hop in. Elliot hops in and closes the door. "Where are we possibly going?" I ask him. "You'll see soon." He replies. The helicopter takes off and we fly over the city.
After our mini trip, we head back. When we land we walk back towards the mini set up area Elliot had. "When I first met you, you changed my life. Everyone expected something from me, but you accepted me for who I really am. I thought I knew everything until I realized I had no clue. When I'm around you, you encourage me,inspire me, let me be me. I always thought I would never need anyone and that I would make it on my own, but I realized I couldn't. It was you that I needed. If I lost you I don't think there would be a reason for living other than doing God's will. I feel like this is his will. I don't want to spend the rest if my life lost. I wanna spend It with you." He explains. He gets me to stand up and he gets on one knee. I instantly start crying.
"Krystal Alexandra Walters, will you marry me?" He sits there on one knee with a ring in his hand, a smile on his face, and hope in his eyes.
