For several weeks, I took Emily anywhere she wanted. We made up for all the time we lost in seven years. Today, I decided it was about time. I took Emily to a fancy restaurant and stood up in front of everyone and sang her a love song.

She laughed at my horrible singing. Then, I took her to the beach.

She saw dozens of unlit candles and asked; "I wonder who left them here."

I replied, "I wonder too. Let me go lit them up and see."

As I slowly lit up the candles one by one, Emily gasped as she saw what the candles spelled: I LOVE YOU WILL YOU MARRY ME EMILY

I kneeled and looked up at her with puppy eyes, "Will you marry me?"

She cried, "Oh, Frank. That's so sweet. I do."

I smiled happily and ran up to her.

She exclaimed happily, "Frank. I've been waiting for this day for so long. I""

I smiled, but my smile disappeared as she fainted before me. I caught her in my arms.

"Emily! Don't scare me. Emily!"
