"Mrs Gwen Parker. Sounds good, don't you think?" I say to Peter, in his arms. "I think Mrs Spiderman has a catchier tone to it, but that works too." He says, his head pressed against mine.
A lot has went on in the past year. We both got scholarships for Oxford, (!!!!) we have planned to move to England together, (tonight is our last night in NYC!) and we are due to be married. I walk inside, and sit down at my desk, Peter close behind. I quickly turn over wedding dress ideas, just before Peter can see, move some old Oxford letters out of the way, and focus on a sheet of paper on which a picture of our new house lays upon. Well, apartment anyway. Peter puts his hands firmly on my shoulders, before bending down and kissing my cheek softly. I can't help but look down at the ring on my finger, glittering in the light. My phone rings, and I quickly pick it up with shock, too distracted by my ring. "Hello?" I trying to pull my eyes away from the ring. "Miss Stacy?" I feel a burn of hatred at the term 'miss' "It's Oxford University, in London. We were just going to confirm that you are coming to attend the university on Monday?" The woman from Oxford replies in her posh tone. "Of course. I will see you on Monday." I say in a hurried voice. "Great. We look forward to seeing you on Monday." She says in the irritating tone. Then I hang up on her, and stand up. I push my hair back, before Peter wraps his arms around me. "I can't do this without you." I whisper. I have had nothing but stress with the engagement, moving to England, and Oxford. I lean in to Peter. We look up at each other, and gaze into each others eyes. His hand moves up to my neck, and our lips just about touch, when Peter's phone starts to ring. Reluctantly, he answers it. "Hello, Mr Parker? It's Oxford University......" Peter's tone is angry at this Woman breaking up our 'moment' and says "I'll be there." Before kissing me. I break away suddenly, remembering he didn't hang up the phone. I quickly tap the 'end call' before returning to Peter's lips.
