After four correct answers the tension rose to fever pitch. Deep breathes, Blaire told herself.
"Are you ready for your final question?" James asked.
"Yes", Blaire replied.
When he asked it, Blaire blinked. Had she heard it correctly? She couldn't have; she was imagining things. She gave a nervy little cough and asked, "Could you repeat the questions please?"
Doing his best to keep his voice steady, James did so "I was wondering if you'd go out with me?"
The room felt silent, awaiting Blaire's answer. She bit her bottom lip and replied "Yes."
"I'm sorry" James said. "Is that your final answer?"
"Yes!" Blaire exclaimed, much more confidentally.
"It's the correct answer!" James confirmed, much to everyone's delight.
Naturally Jace ungraciously disented, but his protest were drowned out by the boisterous crowd who congratulated the camp and her new boyfriend.
Shying away from the limelight, James steered Blaire towards a quiet corner of the function room where he presented her with a trophy.
"I was wondering if..." Blaire delibrately allowed the question to trail off.
Sensing what she was going to ask James smiled, then leaned forward and kissed her - as far as Blaire was concerned , was the best answer he could have possibly given.
