“Hi,” I whisper. “What are we doing up here?”
“Louder for the people in the back,” Dad shouts.
Dario keeps the microphone between us as he says, “The first time I saw you dance, you captured me under your spell, and not a day has passed where I haven’t fallen more and more in love with you.”
My breathing speeds up, along with my heartbeat, and I wipe my palms on the fabric of my dress.
Dario goes down on one knee, and looking up at me, he continues, “I want to spend my life under your spell, Eden, and the only way I can think of making sure that happens is by begging you to marry me.”
A sob bursts from me, and I sink to my knees so we’re face-to-face as he asks, “Will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?”
“Yes,” I croak, too emotional to speak any louder.
I shove the microphone out of the way and throw my arms around his neck, whispering, “Yes, I’ll marry you, Dario. Yes, a million times yes.”
He presses a kiss to my lips before pushing me back so he can slip a diamond the size of Texas onto my ring finger.
“Thank you, Tesoro, for making me the happiest man alive.”
Holding him as tight as I can, I say, “Not half as happy as you’ve made me.”
“Let’s get everyone fed,” Dad calls out.
As the people head into the hall, I stare at Dario, who took one look at me and decided I was his, and now I’m wearing his ring.
God, I’m so lucky he caught me dancing.
The End.
