"What?" She was taken aback by the sudden proposal. She had seen it coming when he explained the hearts. To be more specific, she knew ever since confirming that they were mates, that they would get married sooner or later. Even then, it still took her by surprise.
She looked at him with her mouth parted and didn't exactly know what to say. "For the rest of our lives, Dairon?"
It felt awkward when she suddenly thought about it.
His eyes dimmed slightly as he tried again. "Will you marry me, Jas?"
Her heart raced as her eyes watered. "Yes."
He stood and pulled her into a tight hug. "Thank you."
She rested her head on his chest and didn't want to state what she had thought about, because it would ruin the moment.
That didn't mean it had slipped his scrunity. He looked down at her face and kissed it gently. "Why are you sad? Shouldn't this be the happiest moment of our lives?" He asked.
