Chapter 44 - Are You Willing..... (2/2)

I have faith in what I see

Now I know I have met an angel in person

And she looks perfect

I don't deserve this

You look perfect tonight”

He brought her lips closer to her forehead, leaving a lingering kiss there as he sang along the last line.

”You look perfect tonight.” He murmured once again looking at her pretty little face that was merely inches away from his own.

As soon as the song was over, Adam loosened his grip around her. Stepping back a bit he went down on his left knee, making Stella's eyes widen in surprise.

From the inside pocket of his coat, he fished out a ring. Holding it firmly in between his fingers, he extended it towards her.

”I know I have been doing a few things wrongly and I want to rectify those now.” He spoke up, looking into her hazel eyes which somehow had brightened up his life.

”I won't be repeating what I had told you already. I just want to say that I want to be a part of your everyday life just like I want you to be a part of mine. I want to make you smile more often. I like seeing that smile on your face, it brightens up my day.” He continued.

”I can't promise you that it will always be a happy ride or a walk in the park, but I promise to give you my all.” He looked at the girl who was looking at him with her teary eyes.

”So, Stella Martin. Are you willing to be my girlfriend?” He gave her a bright smile.

Stella was rooted to the ground, still under shock. She had thought that it was just a fancy dinner. Never in her mind it occurred for even once that the man claiming that they were in a relationship would propose to her. And that too this beautifully.

She nodded her head slightly, making Adam stand up on his feet again. He wrapped his arms around her once again, bringing her close to him.

”Sweetheart, can you please use words?” He asked her softly.

”Yes!” Stella replied, nodding her head once again.

This was all that Adam needed from her to crash his lips against hers. After kissing her for a while and sucking on her lips, he finally let the poor girl breathe.

Taking her left hand in his own, he slid the ring onto her ring finger. Bringing her hand close to his lips he placed a lingering kiss on the ring.

”You have made me the happiest man alive right now sweetheart.” Adam said, kissing her hand once again.
