I love you!
I love you!
"Once you were mine, but, for me, it was enough. I'll let someone else love you. She will love you better than me. I'll let you go..." I say as I look into his eyes.
          He doesn't say anything.
          After some time, he takes a step forward, cups my face with his hands and leans in to kiss me. I let him kiss me. I want to feel his kiss and touch for the last time.
          He kisses me gently, his hands on my cheeks and my hands are around his waist. His lips move in synchrony with mine and we both melt into the kiss. Before we move apart to catch some air, he bites my bottom lip, the way he always did, and he stays close to my face.
"I'm sorry, Robert. I need to go." I turn away from him and I walk away. Two steps away from him, I feel two hands around my waist.
"Please, don't go!" I hear someone whispering into my ear. It's Robert. He's hugging me. I take one of his hands and try to remove it from my waist, but his grip is too strong.
"Please, Robert. Don't do this. If we don't do this now, later it will be more painful." I say it with tears in my eyes. I need to do this! Now or never!
          I try to remove his hands once more, but his grip is still so strong. I put in more strength. One hand removed. But as soon as I take his hands off me, he puts them right back.
"Please, Robert. Let me go. You're not helping me at all." I say with a shaky voice with my tears threatening to fall out.
"I won't let you go. You were my first love and always will be. I want to live with you and do everything with you. Please...don't leave me! I need you!"
          At this point, my tears are flowing down my cheeks. I'm crying really hard.
          I turn around in his arms. I cup his face and look him right in the eye. I see the love in them and no fear. He's serious about me.
"Are you telling the truth?" I ask him just to make sure.
"Did I ever lie to you?" He says with honesty. I see it in his eyes. He's also right. He never lied to me before.
"Are you serious about this? Won't you regret it?" I ask him. I want to see if he really means it. If not, then it's not worth it.
"I was never this serious about something in my life. And why would I regret it? You're the girl that I always loved. I don't want anyone else. I want to start a new life with you." He says catching my attention.
"...W-what you mean?" I said in confusion.
          Then he lets go of me. He backs off a little bit and looks right into my eyes. He takes hold of my hand gently.
"Ever since I was a kid, I always admired you, looked up to you. You were my hero. When I was bullied, you always ran to me and scare the bullies away. You were braver than me. From then on, I decided to become like you. I wanted to become your hero. To be able to protect you. Now it is time to change that. Right now and from now on, I wanna protect you and no one else." He pauses a little and continues. "I always wanted to fo this and I feel that this is the right time." He puts his hand inside his pocket and he pulls out a little red box. He kneels down on one knee. "When I said that I want to start a new life with you, I meant, I want to have a family with you. Will you marry me?" He opens the little red box. Inside I see two rings: one with a diamond on top and the other one with little diamonds one next to each other. The rings were silver. From where did he got that much money to buy these rings.
When he opens the box, I feel my knees getting weak. I put my hands to my mouth, covering it and from my eyes, the tears fall like a waterfall.
"Robert..." I say at a loss of words. I can't believe he's asking me to marry him! I wanna say yes. And earlier I wanted to break up with him. I'm so cruel!
"Yes! I will marry you!" Without any hesitation, I say yes.
          When he hears my answer his face lits up. He stands up and hugs me tightly. I want this moment to last forever.
          After we broke the hug, he leans in to kiss me. I put my hands over his shoulders and his hands are already on my hips.
           He, once again, kisses me gently and savoring our precious moment. Please, God, don't let this moment end.
          After what seemed like an eternity, he breaks the kiss and whispers under his breath.
"You're finally mine. You can't turn back now." He chuckles.
          I giggle and give him a peck on the lips.
"I don't want to turn back! I want to be happy with the man I love!" We both smile wide.
"I love you!"
"I love you too!"
