120 All the Moonsingers …

Nathan

I’ve thought about a thousand ways to finally tell Lyla how I feel about it .

In one scenario there would be flowers , lots of flowers , in another , a single stem of flower between my lips , dressed up to the nines , with soft music playing in the background and a thousand more scenarios I’d looked up from the internet .

But to think I decided to skip confessing my feelings , skip dating and jump straight into asking her to marry me … in a dingy , motel room that doesn’t sound half as bad only that she stiffened in my embrace .

Ragnar was spurring me on and I knew it was now or never .

I don’t know if I will ever have this kind of opportunity again , so I am putting all my eggs in one basket .

“ Just listen to me , ” I said quietly “ And you don’t have to say anything right now ,” I added gently , placing a hand on her cheek .

“ Just think about it .

Please .

She nodded slowly , turning her gaze from me .

“ Okay , ” she whispered .

“ I’ll think about it .

I smiled faintly , brushing a strand of hair from her face .

“ That’s all I ask .
