Marry Me

“Lucien…” I called his name in a whisper. Lost for words.

“I want you to marry me, Natalia,” Lucien proposed as he looked sincerely into my eyes. I love these green eyes so much…but…

“But we…can’t,” I replied softly.

“Should I get down on one knee?” Lucien said jokingly.

“Lucien…enough with the jokes…” I pleaded for him to stop playing around as he laughed a little.

“You’re right. On a more serious note, I want you to consider my marriage proposal seriously. I know we can’t get married right now but I want you to know that I have every intention to make you my wife. You can take this as a pre-proposal. When the time is right, I’ll propose to you properly again then,” Lucien said so sincerely and passionately that I was so moved by his words.

“Thank you, Lucien. Knowing this means a lot to me…I can’t thank you enough. I’m so happy!” I replied with a bright smile. I can’t believe Lucien just proposed to me. Even if it’s not right now…perhaps someday…
