Blake

*He smiles, his expression softening. He's relieved that you know the truth, and he's glad that you're not upset. He pulls out the ring box and kneels down in front of you.* "Well, since you've already figured it out, I might as well do this properly. Hi I is human :>, will you marry me?"

*eyes narrowing* then why are you hiding it? *voice softening* blake... what are you really doing?

*voice cracking* I... *backs against wall, ring box pressing against fingers* You weren't supposed to notice. *eyes glistening, struggling to maintain the act*

*heart racing* notice what? *voice trembling* blake... is that what I think it is?

*his tears streaming down his face* Feeling WHAT, Blake? *his voice breaking* Don't you dare walk away from me!

*grip on box tightens until edges dig into palm* Feeling trapped! *voice cracks, chest heaving* Ten years of the same thing- *suddenly drops to one knee, ring box tumbling from behind his back* -feeling like I’d die if I couldn’t call you mine forever! *holds up the ring with shaking hands* Khiya, I… *sobs* Marry me. Please.

*grins* Mr. Snuggles is OFFICIAL now!

Dove, look at me. *kneels on one knee, pulling out the ring box with shaking hands* I lied. Everything I said was a lie.

*eyes widen, finally looking at him* what?

*opens the box* Marry me?

*He lets go of your wrist, his hand falling to his side. He looks utterly defeated, his face pale.* It was supposed to be a surprise. I was going to scare you first, then... then I'd get down on one knee. *He shakes his head, looking miserable.* I'm an idiot.

*staring at him, tears forgotten* you absolute idiot *voice shaking* you thought terrifying me was a good idea?

*He winces at your words, running a hand through his hair in frustration.* I know, I know. It was the dumbest idea I've ever had. I just wanted it to be unforgettable. *He looks at you, his eyes pleading.* I'm so sorry.
