We were sitting in the restraunt, might I say that it wasn’t any restraunt. It was one of the fanciest and most expensive ones in our town.
“This is so lovely, Michael” I smiled looking around atthe beautiful chandelier on the celing
“Not as lovely as you, Aspen” he smirked taking a sip of his ice water.
“Shut up” I blushed. My cheeks were naturally pink but when im around michael they turn the shade of deep red.
“Hello, I am Kevin and I will be your waiter for tonight. What would you like for your main dish?” A tall older man smiled standing by our table
“We will have the Chicken Frisco with a side of grilled asparagus” Michael smiled politely up at the waiter
“Alright I will bring it out as soon as its finished” Kevin smiled taking our menus and exiting to the back
“This is honestly too much, Michael. It’s so extravagant” I gushed
“Well, I would only pick the best for my girl.” he smiled.
After we had dinner we walked on the boardwalk beside the restraunt. That was equally as beautiful as the building we were currently in.
“So Aspen, what’s something that makes you sad?” he asked as we walked. Sad? wow thats a wondeful topic there michael. He always came up with these weird conversation starters. But I didnt complain.
“Sad? Well, a lot of things really. But probably the most important thing is that I won’t be able to marry someone and have children. I won’t be able to have a family.” I sighed tangled onto his arm with his suit coat on.
“Don’t talk like that” he said down to me, his shadow overpowering my small frame.
“You know I won’t be here for long Michael. Im going to die soon” I looked up at him no hesitation in my voice.
“Stop it” he said stopping “you aren’t going to die”
“But I am, im going to and you’re going to have to be strong enough to deal with that.” I yelled
“I will never be strong enough to loose you.” he said walking closer to me
“This is why I didn’t want us to happen. I just don’t want to hurt you and thats whats going to happen” I said as a tear fell from my face.
“I will never be strong enough to loose you Aspen. But I will have to try if that happens. Im here until the end, whether that’s tomorrow or 50 years from now. Ill be here right by your side” he said wiping the tear from my cheek as I looked up at him.
“Why? Why do you want to go through this?” I cried
“Because you are the love of my life.” he said smiling down at me “im willing to go through hell just to be with you.”
“What about when im gone? What happens then?” I said looking up at him
“Then I will be thankful for the time I did have with you.” he said
“Thank you” I smiled softly trying to contain my tears
“For what?”
“For showing me that life is beautiful. Without you I wouldnt be the person I am right now. I wouldnt be happy. I would be in my room alone and sad. Thank you for everything" I said hugging him tightly
We stood there hugging in the middle of the boardwalk. My arms wrapped tightly around his waist and his head on top of mine. We stood there in silence until he said
“ Aspen,thank you for being my everything”
