-3 years later-
I sat on the couch with my laptop on my legs. I smiled softly and felt a tear escape my eye looking at the picture of me and Snake hugging. No one knew we were together. We didn’t want them to know and everything was ok.
We’ve been dating for 3 years until… Today it has been exactly 5 months from when he suddenly disappeared. I sobbed and hugged my knees.
I never stopped looking but my friends just gave all the hope up few months ago. I time to time walked around our favorite places both in Florida and Michigan even if it was a huge storm outside. Actually it’s funny how lately it’s been raining quite often. Even now I could hear rain banging on the window. I felt like the sky was crying with me.
I laughed and shook my head. After half an hour of crying I heard a faint knock on the door. I quickly wiped the tears away and stood up. Who the fuck would be outside in that big storm?
As I opened the door someone hugged me making my clothes wet. Ok. Now I’m scared.
“Howdy.” A deep voice whispered in my ear. I immediately hugged back as tight as I could.
We stood outside my house for a while. My eyes were closed but I felt him back away so I frowned. But suddenly he kissed and I kissed back with so much passion I knew he was surprised. We pulled away and I hugged him again tightly. My head was on his chest and his head on mine.
“Will you marry me?” Snakes words danced in the storm behind us. I finally opened my eyes and looked up at him. His stunning blue eyes stared at me so lovingly. What worried me were the big bags under his eyes.
“What?” I asked wanting to hear those words again. He crouched on one knee and lifted a little box.
“Sarah Keller, will you marry me?” On Snakes face was the biggest grin and I nodded.
“Of course, Snake!” He grabbed me and spun us around with rain soaking us.
But we didn’t care.
We were too happy to care.
