I place my hand in his, and we walk to an open space. A familiar song begins to play, and instantly tears push up my throat.

Stand by Me by John Newman fills the air, and just like when we danced to it on our first date, I get swept up in Kao’s arms.

My eyes never leave Kao’s as I listen to the lyrics.

When the song ends, and silence falls around us, a smile tugs at the corner of Kao’s mouth. Then he takes a step back, and when he goes down on one knee, pins and needles spread over my entire body as the surprise hits me full force.

“Fallon.” I nod like an idiot even though he hasn’t even asked me anything yet, and it makes his smile grow. Then Kao pulls a ring out of his breast pocket, and holding it to me, he says, “Facing a day without your beauty in it will be worse than being blind.” Tears well in my eyes, and I struggle to keep them back so I can see his face. “Facing a day without hearing your voice will be worse than being deaf. Facing a day without you will be my end because my heart only beats for you. Will you marry me?”

When I nod, Kao climbs to his feet. His eyes lock on mine. “To answer your question, yes, I will still love you when you’re old and wrinkly.”

A sob flutters over my lips, and throwing my arms around his neck, I bury my face against him. “You remember?”

“Sorry, it took me so long to answer you.”

I shake my head, and pulling back, I fan my face with my hand. “Now, let me see the ring.”

Everyone starts to laugh.

Kao slips a princess cut diamond onto my finger, and the rock gleams in the electric light above us.

“Now you’re finally mine,” Kao murmurs.

Shaking my head, I smile up at him. “I’ve always been yours.”

The End.
