I look up at the stage. The boys are jumping around, singing. How ever many times I see them perform, it still amazes me how natural and happy they look. All of a sudden Andy opens his eyes and looks at me. He comes to sit on the edge of the stage and holds out his hand. I reach over the bar and hold it. Andy squeezes it, then he holds his guitar. He starts playing, a slow song. The lights dim and a spotlight shines on him. My stomach flutters as I listen to the words. It's an original song, he wrote it for me. Tears well in my eyes and I can feel myself being recorded by the fans, but I don't mind, in that moment it's just me and Andy. He finishes the song and kneels down in front of me. My heart skips a beat. He pulls a box out of his pocket and opens it. I can see the most beautiful ring, glittering perfectly in the bright stage lights.
Andy: I tried to think of what to say for so long, something that you would remember forever. But, honestly, no words can describe how much you mean to me. I feel so so lucky to have you, and I know we've been through some really rough times, but we stuck together and helped each other. Baby, I love you so much and I would love, more than anything, to spend the rest of my life with you. Georgia, will you marry me?
For a second I freeze. Time stands still and all I can see is the man I love in front of me. I think about what's happened, and how through everything, the doctors and hospital and the days I spent in bed, how he's always been here to hold me up and keep me strong. I love him, and at that moment I'm completely sure what to say.
Georgia: Yes! Yes yes yes yes yes!
He slips the ring gently onto my finger and stands up. We're both crying. He jumps over the barrier. He picks me up and holds me tight, kissing me. I hear cheering around us, and I look around. I smile at the boys, and the fans, and my fiancé, and for the first time in a long time, I feel perfectly and completely happy.
