37 parts Complete Her eyes misted over as she stared at the happy couple. "Do you think that'll be us one day?" She sighed, leaning back into him.
Leaning down, he nuzzled his face in her neck and wrapped his arms around her middle, breathing in the vanilla scent of her shampoo. "My heart beats for you and you only. I'll stand by your side no matter what, for as long as you'll have me."
She turned around in his arms in lightning speed, her eyes wide with disbelief. "Did you just propose to me?"
"It depends whether you want to be proposed to or not." He shrugged, pulling her closer to him as their bodies swayed to the rhythm of the slow song.
She attempted to scowl but couldn't control her smile. "I guess we won't know that until it actually happens."
The song came to an end then, and all couples pulled away to clap for the newly weds whom had just finished their first dance.
