A collection of the thoughts I could never bring myself to say out loud.

I blinked for a bit to try and get the hallucinations off of my mind but I realized that I wasn't imagining things this time -there really were flashes of light. I looked around and saw the same group of girls from earlier in the evening. This time, aside from their lightsabers, they were also holding on to their camera phones which flashed each time they took a photo. I could not understand what was happening around me. I know, I was pretty drunk, but I was sure that everyone was speaking in a language I could not understand. I listened carefully and picked up a few words. Minho. Girl friend. Proposal. Julia. That did it in. Why were they saying my name? And then I heard something strange. It was quiet at first but it started getting louder and louder until it was all I could hear. "Say yes!" "Say yes!" "SAY YES!" What? I turned my eyes to the man who was kneeling in front of me, handing me my best friend's wedding ring. His eyes were orbs of panic and terror. It only lasted a second, though, and then his expression turned to one I didn't understand. Was it calculation? But what I didn't understand even more was what he did and said next. He opened the ring box, smiled and said. "Julia, will you marry me?"
