Ian's palms were almost liquid because of the continuous rubbing. He had never been more nervous in his life. Who knew a proposal was harder than the SATs. Across him sat the woman of his dreams, Suze, his five year girlfriend. She had her eyebrows permanently raised because Ian kept doing and saying crazy things, she had no idea what he was up to.
"so......are you going to tell me what's up" Suze asked smiling and flaunting her adorable dimples
"er...." Ian began to stutter again
"this is a very fancy restaurant...Must be really expensive too...you didn't have to" suze said as she held Ian's left hand .
Ian smiled, he suddenly felt relieved, like he could do anything.
"baby, I have something I want to ask you" Ian said as he reached into his pocket to pull out the diamond ring. He panicked as he touched the ring, causing Suze, who was still holding his hand to panick. Ian heard a splash and he looked up to see a waterlogged Suze
"babe, I'm sorry" Ian said as he reached out to help
"its ok, I'll just go to the restroom, I'm sure there's a towel here" suze said getting up.
Ian slapped his forehead with his right hand. This was going to be the worst proposal ever. He just wanted to get the proposal off his chest. Ian looked up to see suze approaching in a different outfit, it was barely a minute and she was already changed.
Ema sipped her drink as she looked around. She touched her pocket to be sure her gun was still intact.
"come on, show your face You moron" she muttered angrily to herself as she searched the room. Maybe standing in one position wasn't helping. She decided to take an un suspicious stroll round the room. She had picked this particular restaurant because she was sure he would show up and try to get her. With all the cameras, he would get caught. Ema was still walking round the busy room when she felt a tight grip on her right hand. She quickly reached for her gun and was about to pull it out when she turned and realised it was someone else
"what the. .." she began but the stranger got on his knees and pulled out a diamond ring
"will you marry me?" he asked with a hopeful smile
"are you crazy????," Ema nearly screamed.
Ian looked confused. This was definitely the worst proposal ever.
"no,.... I love you" Ian explained
"I've heard of love at first sight but marriage at first sight? come on dude" Ema laughed and then Ian noticed, there were no dimples
"what happened to your dimples? " Ian asked. Ema just shot him a puzzled look
"You're not Suze...oh my God, you look exactly like her" Ian couldn't believe it
"who's Suze? " Ema asked, trying to figure out what was going on
"my fiancée to be" Ian said, realising his mistake
"why does she look like me...wait a minute, where's she? " Ema asked, realising what had happened
"she went to the ladies room, why do you look scared" Ian asked confused
Ema didn't wait for him to finish, she turned and ran to the ladies room. She saw some sophisticated looking ladies who were chatting and applying makeup
Ema opened all the stalls but no sign of her look alike.
"oh no, they've got the wrong girl" Ema said as she walked out of the bathroom.
"have you met her, why is she taking so long?" Ian asked as he saw Ema approaching
"she's not in there" Ema said
"what do you mean? "Ian asked confused
"she's gone. ....he has taken her" Ema explained.
Ian turned white
