I sat and listened to him with my mouth gapping open. I sighed...opened my mouth to say something and closed it again...upon seeing this gesture he knelt before me with pleading eyes "please say something..." He begged. And as if remembering all the pain the hurt and all the loss I endured through the hands of Brenda... the same person who Chris was with I began to tremble with rage.
"Its all a plan isn't it a plan to make me express my love for you and then both you and Brenda will laugh me to scorn...you will have no mercy on me and I won't live this down... That's it isn't it!!?" I yelled. "Why do you lie just to make me believe and the worst thing is you're so good at it...what have I ever done wrong concerning you I don't understand why everyone is out to get me and for what I don't know... What you and Brenda shared was real and what's worse is you're dragging me into your horedo-"
Infuriated he whispered "Kaylee shut up."
"I would have you know I'm a maiden and I don't take any orders from-
He glared at me and I whimpered under his cold eyes "shut up" he said pronouncing every letter.
"Brenda came to me not the other way around and everyone knows what a 'manhore' I am right so I devoured her at first sight and every time after that..." He inhaled steadily and exhaled shakily "we have never and I mean never had any such relations... all these women I was with was just so their real relationships wouldn't be discovered and for this deal I was supposed to get a gem in return..." Answering my questioning glared he said" I was supposed to get you...but when Brenda fell for me she started acting all funny around you so that it seemed I had no interest in you...but she knew all along."

Wide eyed I stared at him mouthing the words 'she knew'.
"yes she knew bragging to me how your mom treated you and why would I wanna be with you when I can have her at my beck and call... But I merely used the information to my advantage. " he stated
Teary eyed I remembered the night before I fled from the town; how Brenda ruined my life and now I'm here finding out it was out of envy.
Sigh...
"Please don't be so distraught about the whole situation you are now with me and your father approves and that's all that matters right? " he said
"no that's not all that matters because I haven't approved. " I said as my inner me scolded me for saying such a stupid thing :
j͠u͠s͠t͠ a͠d͠m͠i͠t͠ i͠t͠ a͠l͠r͠e͠a͠d͠y͠ y͠o͠u͠ k͠n͠o͠w͠ y͠o͠u͠ l͠o͠v͠e͠  h͠i͠m͠ t͠o͠o͠.
"OK the truth. I've also always liked you... OK loved you but I thought you didn't even notice me, but now that you're telling me otherwise I'd love to be with you but just one more question. "
With a smile he eagerly urged me on
"are you certain you are in love with me? "I asked.
At that he hung his head frowning "I don't know I think I do its just I -"
"I see" I said walking away
"hey hey hey its not like that " he said pulling me back eagerly into his chest "please let me explain... Have a seat, thank you. " he inhaled "I can't say I love you because I don't know what love is, you may think its odd because I have everything but that's because my parents used that to substitute their presence, then there is the factor of me only having one maiden to call my own but she forced herself on me she wanted me to love her so badly that I broke and left Meadow pond.  Kay I can't say I love you but I know what I feel for you is strong and its something I have never felt before so I think its love.  I know to you asking you to marry me is a favor from me to you but its the other way around because I need your help I need you to teach me how to love but most importantly how to love you"
He called me Kay I kept yelling inwardly I can't believe I've got a nickname by Chris. I know he said a lot but he didn't call Brenda bren or anything like that so that's good right OK in revision he only wants to love me. As I oooed and ahhed he knelt before on his right knee and held my left hand. "kay" he began "now I know you don't know me that well but it takes I lifetime to fully know someone and I want to start that lifetime with you I want to be the one who protects you, I want to be your comfort, your true love, your knight in shining armor please kay would you mind removing the title of a bachelor and replacing it with a husband please...  "he said cracking I had to chuckle. 
I smiled "um... " I stretched on and on
"kay... " he said pleading
"most definitely " I said and as if he was struck he jumped up holding my waist bringing me up in the air and brought me down into an embrace, as he gently brushed his lips against mine.
The small gesture had me feeling weak but I clung to him for strength, strength in these times I thought as I started to cry. I guess he felt me shaking in his arms, he gently pulled away "don't cry kay sweetheart its all OK now everything will be OK things are going to be just the way you have always envisioned because now we are together " he said gently brushing my tears away and resumed our embrace.
