NINETEEN
"Eilla?" Ben coaxed. He stayed on his knee in front of Eilla, who was in a state of shock. After what she had put him though, so little time had gone by, they seemed to be falling completely apart.
"Yes," Eilla finally sighed, allowing herself a wide smile. Ben returned the expression with relief, and Eilla sat back down on the couch where their faces became level. Ben sat the ring on the couch next to her, took both of her hands, and drew his lips in to meet hers. Eilla kissed him deeply, feeling like the world was drifting slowly off of her shoulders. Ben pulled his head away slowly, reaching back for the ring.
Eilla sat on the sofa, heart pounding, ecstatic. This was the moment she had been so impatient for Ben to create. It was really happening. Ben held out her ring finger, and Eilla's mind was racing so fast she didn't even notice when Ben slid the ring on. She was still smiling wide and looking into Ben's eyes, thankful that he was so forgiving and compassionate. She did not deserve him.
"What do you think?" Ben asked, nudging Eilla's left hand. She darted her eyes to her finger, at the ring she had described in perfect detail to Theo. An emerald cut diamond solitaire wasn't a ring Ben would select without help.
"Its perfect," Eilla said on the way in for another kiss. "I love you," she breathed almost directly into his mouth before one more kiss.
"All of this fighting and confusion and all of that, that ends right now. Its you and me from now on baby." Ben placed his left hand on her cheek, stroking it gently with his thumb. Eilla covered it with her own hand, and nodded in agreement and swooped in for yet another kiss. This time she lingered, wrapping her arms around Ben's shoulders.
"Lets go to bed," she whispered.
