LOVE

Days passed, months passed
and their love grew. Their
hearts became knitted
together. Crystal felt like she
was in a Disney world
together with her prince charming. Easton felt so blessed to have her by his
side. They did things together,
went everywhere together
and were quick to show the
world that they were in love. For all of Easton’s life, he had
never felt a love so true and
pure. He decided in his heart
that he would treat her like
his own flesh for the rest of
his life. With all the women he dated
he never saw the need to
have a family, but with
Crystal, his thoughts were
fixed on having a family with
her. For the first time he felt genuinely at peace and happy
within. Every morning when
he woke up, the first thing
that drops on his mind was
Crystal. He would walk to her
room; tap at her door which would swing open almost immediately and her beautiful
sleepy face shows. He would
cradle her face and plant kisses
on her lips and forehead
before muttering “good morning”.
Life was blissful everything
about love was the way she
had always imagined it. With
every passing day, her love
for him grew; she was so attached to him already and couldn’t bear the thought of a
life without him. She was
content and happy with him.

“no other guy would make
me feel the way he makes me feel”, she constantly thought.

She knew her heart belonged
to him and his heart belonged
to her too. Soon her thoughts
dwelt on carrying his children.

Most times she day dreamed of a swollen belly with his child in it. She saw how he
cared and loved her, she felt
his sincerity, she observed
how he paid close attention.

She knew she was a lucky woman. The maids and everyone that met them saw
the bond between them.

On other hand Easton thought
of so many ways to ask her
hand in marriage. He wondered her reaction would be. He was scared that she
was going to refuse, so that
made him change his mind
anytime he wanted to ask
her. He started becoming nervous around her.

She noticed it and got bothered.
“is there anything you want
to tell me?”
“nope, why?”
“you are acting weird these few days and its getting me
worried”. He smiled a little,
“Crystal, I am fine”, he assured
her. He spent most of his time
searching for the perfect
engagement ring to buy for her and for the perfect time and way to ask her to marry
him. Deep in his heart he
knew he loved her so d--n
much, she made him happy
and content. Crystal saw his withdrawal as
a sign that his love for her
might be waxing cold.

Somehow she dreaded the
moment he was going to
totally withdraw. She paid close attention to every gesture he made, every
sentence he said, she looked at
his body language, just
looking for a sign. Something
was cooking up in his head, she knew this, she had known Easton for more than
eight years and when
something troubled him. She
tried over and over again to
get something out of him, but he kept insisting that he was fine and there was nothing to
get worried about. She forced
herself to believe him and
tried to ignore his new
attitude. She didn’t want to loose what they had, what they shared couldn’t be shared
with another. Another thing
that got her worried was the
lack of jobs that came. “Could
Easton be getting soft and wants to start on a clean slate”, she wondered. Nothing
was normal anymore, but she
kept to herself, she knew
eventually he would fill her in
on what has been happening. Easton knew she noticed his behavior, “if only she knew
how far I would go to please
her, if only she knew how
much I want her to be my
wife”, he thought. He tried to cover up his lapses and make her feel wanted and love, but
his attention was taken over
the plans to ask her hand in
marriage. Starting a family
with her would be his greatest fulfillment and he
knew deep within that their
relationship would be the best
ever. He kept searching for
the perfect ring, a ring that
befitted her. He wanted everything he did for her to be perfect.

Finally he got the ring. It was
beautiful and he knew she
would be thrilled by the sight
of it. But one thing worried him, “was she going to accept his proposal?. He walked
around with the ring in his
pocket for days, thinking,
planning and hoping. He loved
this woman so bad and didn’t want to loose her to anything or anyone.

One evening at dinner, Crystal
couldn’t help but notice how
he ate slowly.

“Now Easton, what is really the matter, you always look like there is something heavy
on your mind these days.

There is a bridge in our
communication. What is it?,
you know you can tell me anything”, her eyes were sad.

His heart broke to see her that
way. He held her hand.

“I’m in love with you Crystal,
and you know this”

“but that doesn’t explain how you are so absent minded these days”. She pushed
further.

He sighed, “I have just been
thinking lately”

“about what?” “about us”. That got her
worried, “what about us? Are
you having a rethink?, tell
me”. Easton smiled,
“nooooooo, common Crystal,
why would you think of that?”
“You are not giving me any
reason to think otherwise”.

“Crystal, I would never leave
you, I promise you this. We
belong together. Remember I can do anything just to make you happy. It’s just a phase
and soon it will pass”.

“Won’t you let me in? Let me
pass through this phase with
you. I feel neglected Easton” “Don’t be my darling, soon everything would be perfect.
I promise”. He gave her an
assuring kiss on her forehead.
She felt defeated but there
was nothing she could do at this point but to wait until everything became perfect.

She just hoped another
woman wasn’t taking him
away from her, but she
trusted Easton and waited for him to reveal what had been on his mind to tell her.

Looking at the ring everyday
tortured him, he needed the
ring on her finger, he craved
to see her reaction. He wanted to take his time and give her a
memorable proposal. “the ring
would fit her beautiful slender
finger”, he thought and
smiled. Soon he started
thinking about the number of children they would have together, the kind of schools
they will attend, the kind of
home and the kind of parents
they would be. If there was
anyone who made him feel different, it was her; she had shown him a whole new gate
way to true love.

Days kept on going and he still
waited for the perfect time.

He had to ask her soon and his plans on how to carry out his proposal to her would soon be
a reality. The day grew closer.

He became nervous and
excited. He was going to ask
the love of his life to marry him. He already told his father about his plan and his
response was “are you sure,
you want to do this ?”

“one hundred and one percent
sure dad. I love her” “you know we took
something away from her
that she knows nothing about”

“it will remain that way dad”
“alright. I have no objection to your happiness. You can
ask her to marry you”. The
approval from his dad lifted
his spirits, he knew it was
time to put that ring on her
finger.
