“
Will you marry me?
” she mouths.
And I read her lips.
I read her lips perfectly.
“Yes,” I tell her in one fleeting breath.
The corners of my eyes erupt in the visual noise of celebration, of bodies moving and hands applauding. Dessie slips the ring on my finger and meets my eyes.
“You’re so beautiful,” I tell her, overcome. “Every day, forever, always, you’re my favorite song.”
“And you’re my light,” she says, and I hear her words with every cell in my body.
I pull her close, our lips uniting, and embrace her in my arms. The room can celebrate with all its noise made by hundreds of other people’s happiness—and all the hands in the room that erupt in applause, clapping their excitement and approval. Hundreds of lips that shout their joy and their celebration.
But it’s only one person’s happiness I’ll ever need. Only one set of hands. Only one set of lips.
Hers, hers, hers
.
The End.
