Just a Memory.

Chapter 41

"Kacie Michelle Thompson, will you please, please, make me the happiest human ever by marrying me?"

________________________

Those words echoed through my brain for a few seconds. Liam just asked me to- to marry him? Me? Why? Is this happening?

"Kacie?" Liam asked, patting my leg to get my full attention back to him and away from my mindless thinking. I met his curious and far stricken brown eyes and smiled softly at him, then slowly nodded my head in acceptance of his request.

"Really?" Liam said with a huge child like grin. I nodded again, smile matching his. He stood up and I opened my arms, he entered my embrace and picked me up to spin me around. I was getting married.

"You're getting married." I heard in the back of my mind, this voice sounded familiar.

"We're getting married!" Liam yelled out to the emptiness of the beach, I giggled at him and his enthusiasm. He put me back on my feet and cupped my face with both hands and our foreheads touched. He was smiling like I've never seen him do. The happiest I've seen him. He kissed my lips, cheeks, nose, chin, anything that his lips could reach. He took my left hand into his, and spread out my fingers. He held the small engagement ring between his thumb and index finger, his right hand was holding mine as he slid on the ring to my ring finger. I couldn't keep my eyes off his face when he did this. His eyes sparkled and his lips never left that beautiful smile that he had plaster on his face when I said yes.

Once the ring was on my finger, I actually took the time to look at it. It was a small silver band with a tiny beautiful diamond on it. I got a little emotional while looking at it. I looked up at Liam and wrapped my arms around his neck and buried my face into his neck.

"Oh, babe." He said smiling and wrapping his arms around my body and nuzzling his face into my hair. I felt tears run down my face and stain his skin and shirt.

"Kacie? Baby, why are you crying?" He said quietly. I pulled away and tried to wipe away the tears running down my face, but he beat me to that.

"Nothing, it's just, I'm happy Liam. I never thought this would happen to me after everything that happened with my parents and then with Harry's suicide." I cried harder. Liam's eyes became softer as I confessed to him and walked back to the spot we were just sitting at.

"I know it sounds stupid, but in my mind, it's not. For 6 years, I thought i was going to be that girl who lived by herself and never got married. 4 of those years were running away from my problems and never allowing myself to love anyone else again. Liam, I can honestly say that I'm happy I decided to come back home those years ago. I wasn't going to, I never wanted to. Then I did and you saw me first at the park on the swings and since then you've been by my stubborn side and I can't be anymore thankful for you to be in my life. I love you is such an understatement right now." I said as I held my hands n my lap and kept my eyes on the fire in front of me. I didn't want to look anywhere else. I felt his hands on my shoulders and slowly squeezing them to relax me.

"It doesn't sound stupid, if anything, if you didn't say that then I would have been somewhat concerned for you. I honestly expected that from you, Kacie." He said to you. You felt his lips on the back of your head and his arms around your body to pull you back into him, so he could hold you from behind. The fire sparked and the sound of the ocean really calmed you down after your little episode. You could hear the few birds in the cool crisp night air and the shallow breathing coming from Liam.

"Why don't we head back to the flat to get some sleep. I know you're going to want to go off to Louis and Camille to tell them the news." Liam laughed at he stood up and I followed his motion, while yawning.

"Yeah let's do that." I smiled and followed him to the car after he placed everything from the picnic in the back of the car and put out the fire. When we got to the car, we listened to The Script all the way home and then cuddled to the sound of Pocahontas.
