“Babe you’d know I would’ve been there… I just couldn’t back out from that show; the designer already had the outfits for the models… I’m sorry…” Carmen said to Shane.

“No, don’t be sorry… it’s not your fault…” Shane said. They stare at each others eyes and Shane fell in love with Carmen all over again.

“Mmm… well I wish I was there with you… are you hungry? I made some paella this morning… I’ll go reheat it, if you want…” Carmen said as she ready her self to stand up and go into the kitchen.

“No no… just sit here with me…” Shane said in a different tone as she pulls Carmen’s hand to sit down.

“O…kay… is there something you want to tell me…” Carmen said feeling a bit freaked out by Shane’s answer and insist.

“Well uhm… yeah there is…” Shane said. She stood up and fixes her blazer on her. She took a deep breath in and kneeled on one bended knee in front of Carmen who is sitting in front of her.

“Carmen… we have been together for nearly three years now and… it has been the most amazing three years of my life… I-I…I love waking up in the morning feeling your body next to mine, I… love when you sit next to me and cuddle on me and that I- I would smell the scent of your hair… I love that you never get sick of cooking for me… I love it when you smile at me in the morning with your sleepy eyes… I love it when you blow kisses at me when you’re on the runway… and I love it when you say those three words that just makes me fall in love with you even more each time you say it…” Shane said as her voice was breaking and little tears were forming in her eyes.

“babe… it’ okay you don’t have to…”

“No baby… please just… I want you to know this….” Shane pulled out the little box from her blazer pocket, opened it and showed it to Carmen; she looks up at Carmen who had tears falling down on her cheeks.
