"Is that a yes?" Tim whispered as he hugged her back.
"Yes," Dominique whispered into his neck.
Tim's arms tightened around her and he stood up, taking her with him. He spun her around and then set her back on the ground. Dominique felt dizzy but she was happy. Tim placed the ring on her finger and kissed her, long and hard. When he broke the kiss, he placed his forehead against hers. She felt a burst of joy and complete happiness. Being able to feel what Tim was feeling was a new experience for her as his feelings were so raw.
"I love you, Dominique. You don't know just how happy you have made me."
"Actually, I think I do," Dominique said as she placed her hand on his heart. "I can feel it."
"I'm glad. I want you to know how happy you make me every day. I want you to feel exactly what I'm feeling when it comes to you. That way you will always know that you are loved. You will always feel loved."
