Kieran held Charlotte delicately in his strong arms, his heart beating as hard as hers as they kissed. Six years and they had gone with only a few minor fights and the very rare wrestling match that usually ended with Kieran winning and Charlotte laughing until she cried. All their friends knew that they were the Alice and Jasper Cullen of the real world, without the vampire stuff and supernatural gifts. They were just Charlotte Iles and Kieran Marvell-Fox. Themselves, her being the fun, sweet but evil fun lover, him being the brooding, moody but somehow sweet trouble maker. They were like puzzle pieces that no matter how differently you angle them, they would always fit.
"Charlotte, can I ask you something?" Kieran mumbled against her lips. Charlotte pulled away and let go if his neck, nodding.
"Ask away," she said.
"We've been going out for about six years now and I was thinking last night that we belong together," he started, slipping his hand into his jacket pocket. Charlotte's heart stopped in her chest, as she thought about the question that her one true love might be about to ask.
"So, what I'm really saying is....... will you marry me?" Kieran finished quicky and awkwardly. Charlotte grinned wildly.
"Yeah, I will. Hopefully, Vicki, Karen and Geogie won't give you the Hurt-My-Friend-And-We-Will-Kill-You-Slowly-And-Painfully talk," she joked, hugging Kieran tightly.
"Thankyou," Kieran said sarcastically. Charlotte kissed him firmly to prove that she wasn't joking.
