One More Day

Jackson looked down. “I guess this would be a great time for me to have a ring, huh?”
“Say yes, Ri!” Raina yelled.
Jackson’s lips twitched. He lowered his voice so that only Ridley could hear him. “You realize it’s always going to be like this, right? Just wait until the rest of my family hears about this.”
Ridley laughed, the beauty of the moment so overwhelming it had no way out of her system except through laughter. The past month had been the worst and best of her life. She’d been stalked, terrified and shot at. But she’d also been cherished. She’d fallen in love. She’d made friends. Most importantly, she’d gained a family.
“I’m not sure laughter during a marriage proposal is a good sign,” Jackson said.
Ridley cupped his face. “Oh, yes it is. Our lives are going to be filled with laughter and joy and love. So, yes. I’ll give you one more day. Every day.” She kissed him gently.
“For the rest of our lives.”
THE END
