Eomer, Hooves And Claw

The Plan

I slept like an angel last night. I still can feel Eomer's lips into mine. Am I dreaming? Did that really happened? I close my eyes again and tried to get back to that very moment we were together. Is this love? Could it be? As I was enjoying my sweet moment, I found Enya standing in front of me smiling.
'Lovely evening, princess?
Oh, Enya! I'm still sleepy.
She pulled the blanket away and opened the curtains that welcomed the bright welcoming sunlight inside the room.
"No, you're awake. Go and clean yourself then eat. Your mahal (tagalog word for love) is waiting for you. He' s been here asking for you three times already!

I leaped out of my bed in disbelief. I was wondering why has he come? Did he suddenly has a change of mind? Was it all a dream? I run hurriedly to the bathroom and took a quick shower and get dressed in my white traditional dress. Enya combed and fixed my hair in a flash.

I went to the dining hall and find King Theoden seating at the middle head of the table. Eowyn and Faramir sitting at the left side of the King. Eomer at the right side. Beside him is an empty seat. All eyes are upon me. It makes me feel uneasy. I feel like I have done something wrong and will be sentenced to death! Eomer stand up and comes towarda me. He held up his hand which I didn't hesitate to get a hold of because at the very moment the most I would be needing is somebody who can carry me in case I faint. He offer the chair beside him which I gladly obeyed.

Eowyn is giggling something to Faramir and looked at me at the same time. Then Eomer stand up. What in the world is he going to do now? I'm froze to death with all these silence and stares. "I'am happy and proud to announce to all of you present in this hall that I and Princess Ameerah are officially a couple. And to all of you bear witness of this moment, that I would ask her hand in marriage!"

Thundering sounds of applause and cheers fills the house of Rohan. The riders raised their glasses and gave their leader a toast of greetings. I feel like my head is spinning upon hearing what Eomer said. Then I just saw his hand reached for mine which I feel hypnotized and obliged to hand him so. "Ameerah, I Eomer son of Rohan humbly and honestly ask thy hand in marriage."

Everyone was again on me. I feel like my tongue got too scared and took off. Then he whispered, "I know this is too fast for you but I can't live without you now" After hearing those words from him, I confidently replied, " I, Princess Ameerah, daughter of the Dragon Kingdom accept thee, Eomer son of Rohan with all my heart"
The sound of cheers and laughter almost spook all the horses in the stable. Eowyn came running to me and hug me. "I always knew you will be my sister" and gave me a kiss. Then King Theoden approached and gave me a smile, "You have tamed my Eomer, princess. Welcome my daughter"

Then somebody reached for my hand and it was him. "Did I surprised you, my love?" I just nod my head and he wrap his arms around me. Then he kissed me in front of all the people. Everyone cheered again. And I saw my warriors applauding too. They were sitting with the riders now. If this is heaven, then I don't want to leave.
