"So what do you think," he says. "You always surprise me," I say.
"Wow, you have really outdone yourself. When did you find the time to get all this stuff up here?" I ask as I look around at everything.
He reaches over, turning on the stereo. He pulls me into his arms. "No more questions, time to dance," he says as he starts to move.
Dimitri starts to sway at the beat of the music. I follow instep with him.
I gasp as he all of a sudden spins me around.
We dance through the first song, then we get into the next song. I didn't realize Dimitri could dance.
Were dancing and all of a sudden Dimitri steps on my foot. I jump as it takes me by surprise. "I'm sorry, " Dimitri tells me.
I can't help but laugh at Dimitri, who looks mortified at stepping on my foot.
"Stop laughing. I know how to dance, really," he says as he tries to regain his pride. "Really, it's ok," I say as I continue to giggle.
"That is one of the many reasons why I love you," Dimitri says. He grabs me, pulling me into his arms. His lips find mine, taking me hostage.
"You keep that up, and I'm going to have to demand you take me to the bedroom," I giggle. "That sounds like a good idea," he says with a smirk.
We enjoy a nice dinner that Dimitri has arranged. I can only imagine what else he has up his sleeve. He has already put so much thought into this trip that it makes me wonder what he's up to.
Dimitri gets up from the table and reaches around the small white table to retrieve something. "What are you up to?" I ask. "You will see," he says with a smirk.
He then reveals a bouquet of red roses that he had hidden.
"What are you up to?" I ask. "You will see," he says with a smirk.
"I got one more surprise," Dimitri says as he holds up his hands.
He drops down on one knee, and I know exactly what he's planning on doing. I didn't think about us getting engaged, and the moment was here, taking me by utter surprise.
He reaches around to his back pocket.
It's a box, and he opens it revealing...........
A stunning solitaire diamond ring. "Will you marry me, Emily?" he asks.
"Yes," I squall out in delight as he places it on my finger.
I can't believe it, as I look at it on my finger. Dimitri is smiling from ear to ear, still on his knee's taking in my reaction.
"You like?" he asks. "Of course I do; it's stunning," I say as I examine it more.
I leap toward Dimitri, who catches me in his arms as he hugs me tight.
Dimitri grabs me, kisses me, then sets me on my feet. "You wouldn't take a girl's breath away, would you?" I say with a giggle. "That's exactly what I wanted to do," he says.
"You are my world, and I want you to be as much of it as I can make," Dimitri says.
I don't know how he manages to say the sweetest things, but this man has always had my heart. "I have wanted this for a long time, but it never seemed within my reach with all the stuff we both have been through. And just when I thought I lost you, here you are making me the happiest man alive," Dimitri says as he strokes my cheek.
"I couldn't agree more. I have wanted you from the moment you became my bodyguard all those years ago. I never thought I would see this day either, even when things started slowing down," I tell him.
"Well, from this moment on, we are going to be happy, start our family and live our lives the way they should have been from the start," he tells me. "Now, let's have some fun," he says as he joins me by the fire pit.
For the rest of the evening, we sat and enjoyed each other's company. I wanted this moment to last forever.
