(Imogen’s Chapter)
As my design lesson come to an end I have to rush to the park down the street with Emma. As I see Emma walk out of her Technology class I run and pull her along. Emma yells “I need to put my stuff away!”
I replied “There’s no time!”
“Time for what?” she questioned.
“Time for us.” I smiled to Emma.
As we ran into the foye I saw Becky. She approached us both. Becky grabbed my arm and said “Excuse me Emma I just need Imogen for a second.”
We walked a couple of metres away and Becky said “Are you seriously still doing this?”
I confirmed “Of course, I love Emma ans Emma loves me.”
“And what if she doesn’t say yes?” Becky questioned.
I paused and became worried but Becky immediately said relising what she commented “She won’t say no, Emma is good for you. I just don’t want you to be hurt if she says no.”
I hugged Becky and ran back to Emma. Emma and I walked down the street to the public park.
We both talked about funny, cute things.
Emma questioned me “What are we really doing here?”
I paused again and walked a bit more to the middle of the park. My back was facing Emma and I held out the ring and looked at it. I hid it again in my pocket and turned around to Emma. I held out my hand and Emma took it. I pulled her in and said “Emma I love you and your everything to me. My time with you has been great but I want to make it forever…..”
I saw tears in Emma’s eyes and I said “I’m sorry if I’m saying it wrong.”
Emma sniffed and kept quiet. I continued “So what I’m trying to say is will you marry me?”
Emma then commented “Your joking right?”
I replied “ I’m serious, I want you. You probabley think it’s the wrong time and stupid of me.”
“No it’s not” Emma answered.
I stood up and said “No as in your not marrying me or no you don’t think it’s silly and you’ll marry me?”
Emma held my hands tight and said “No as in it’s not silly and I want to marry you.”
I smiled and slid the ring on Emma’s hand. She giggled and held out another ring. I looked surprise and said “Emma it’s beautiful”
Emma slid the ring onto my finger and said to me “I love you so much Imogen, more than my favourite food.”
I laughed and held her and kissed her romantically. We looked into each others eys and then held hands and walked to Becky’s house to tell her the news.
We rang Becky’s doorbell and our hearts were still beating at a million miles per hour and it wouldn’t stop. Becky opened the door and squealed “Did it happen!”
We smiled and I held Emma’s hand up and showed Becky her ring and I also showed mine. Becky decided for a celebration sleepover!
Becky’s brother was out for a week for his work course so that meant we could do anything at Becky’s house. We all sat in the massive lounge room and set up our blow-up beds and sleeping bags with piles of food surrounding us. We played a romantic movie but we weren’t watching it much because the whole time we were giggling and having fun and talking about what to do for the wedding when the time comes.
