The Proposal


Room (Chapter two
November 29, 2010

4 corners and just the two of us. The sunlight took its chance to beam the light to our face. I smiled. I am the happiest man on earth. Sleeping beside you, staring at you, gazing upon you. Observing how do you sleep, how your eyes move when asleep. 

I felt your warm heat. I realized i am holding your hands. I smiled. The connection that we have, unending. Observing how do you sleep, how your eyes move when asleep. 

Your lashes are well rested to your rosy white cheeks. Im the happiest, i have the chance to see you like this. Your warm and calm. Im thankful you feel secured. Your eyes moves slowly from left to right or vice versa, you are sounding asleep, in deep sleep. As if the angels did an harmony and you never cared at all, you are my fairytale come true, you are my sleeping beauty. I am the happiest. 

Suddenly, you shook your head. The beautiful smile painted on you turned upside down. You gripped my hand tight. Everything happened in less than 30 seconds. I feel pressured. I wanted to know what were your thoughts, what was the dream all about and made my princess felt like this. My heart melted. I cant do anything but just to stare at you, watch you struggling from it. I hate it that i cant do anything about it. I hate it that the swordsman can't save the princess. The princess that was locked on top of the tower, kept by a ferocious fire breathing dragon. I hate it. All i can do that time was to stare at you and utter the words "i love you". 

I slowly put my face near you. My nose o tip of your nose but not touching it. Held your hand as smooth as i can so i wont wake you up. Mumbling the words that comes from my heart, that describes on what i feel as your prince. I smiled and said to myself that i am the happiest man. I closed my eyes and said the last on my thoughts "i love you". 

I felt your lashes brushed my closed eyes. I noticed you woke up. I was surprised but did not miss the chance of saying it again while you are listening. I pulled you. Allowed you to sit properly at the edge of the bed. I was holding your hands, asked you to remove the ring. At first you don't want to but i insisted, i appreciate you cooperated with me my love. I know it is never easy for you to remove it. I saw that frowned face again. Familiar, it looks like i saw it few minutes ago. I know it is heart breaking. Im really sorry for my actions.  

I stood up in front of you. Bent my left knee on the marbled floor, followed by bending my right knee. Im kneeling in front of you. Holding your hands. You are still clueless of what is happening. 

I reached for your ring finger and glanced at you. I smiled and uttered this...

"Im holding your hands again, offering this humble ring as a sign of our forever, as a sign of my love and as a sign of my commitment to you. This symbolizes myself, so every time we're not together as if i am holding your hands still, carved deep in your heart. I making the four walls and it's corners as my witness for the love that i have for you. In this world that only you and i can see. A world that we built with memories, laughters and love. A world that the reality see it far from where cinderella and snow white were brought up. An imagination that we know that is true. That you and me only in this world along with our ever supportive friends and family. I love you and i will love you with all the might and capabilities that i have and i can. The security of having this heart bound to you, i'll keep that strong. We'll keep each other. I love you. I will always do."

I saw your eyes glitter again like any stars from above. Your mouth tries to open and would like to say any words but as if no sounds would like to come out. You nodded and wore the ring again. Hugged me as if it was the first. As if it is the first time you have this. As if it didnt happen last week. 

You put your lips near my ears. I started to hear your breathings. I felt the melody of your heart beat. As if i am hearing the orchestra. You whispered "Thank you and i love you so much!"  I felt water drops on mu broad shoulders. I hugged you even tighter. I am the happiest man living on this so called "Earth".
