Forever You by Lynn, Sandi (autobiographies to read .txt) 📗

down and asked her if she knew where we were. She guessed it, so I removed the blindfold from her

eyes. She stood there and looked around to see a white canopy, sitting in the middle of the beach.

“Is it just us here tonight?” she asked.

I smiled as I kissed her softly on the cheek. “Yes, baby; I rented out the entire beach just for us.”

I took her hand and led her down the beach to the white canopy. Inside the canopy, sat a round

table, draped in white linen, white roses, and two chairs covered in white fabric. She stood there,

taking it all in and the beauty of it all. “Connor, how and when did you do all this?”

“Do you like it?” I asked as I kissed her hand.

“I love it; you’re so amazing,” she smiled.

“Dinner will be here soon, so I thought we could take a walk along the water.”

I took her hand as we walked along the edge of the shoreline; the water hitting our feet. I stopped

and pointed to the sky. “Look over there; the sun is starting to set.”

I felt an overwhelming sense of peace and comfort at that moment, and I believe Ellery felt it as

well. Now was the perfect time to propose to her. I took her hands and held them as I faced her,

taking in a deep breath.

“Ellery, from the first moment I saw you, I knew instantly that I needed you in my life, and I set out

to make sure that happened. You kept calling me a stalker, and you were right; I did stalk you, but for

good reason. You’re different from anyone that I’ve ever met. You’re strong, kind, good-hearted,

forgiving, and loving. You’re also incredibly stubborn, a smart ass, and very independent, and that’s

everything I love about you. You’ve certainly given me a run for my money since I’ve met you.

You’ve challenged me and brought out a man that I thought I never could be. You’ve shown me things

that I never would’ve seen if you weren’t in my life. You’ve filled the void in my heart and soul that I

never knew existed until you weren’t by my side.” Tears began to fall down her face.

“I was simply a man with no meaning until I met you, and I’m proud of whom I’ve become because

of you. We’ve been through a lot together, and we will continue to go through a lot, but we’ll conquer

whatever life throws our way, together. I want to thank you for being my best friend, and my lover.” I

got down on one knee and pulled the small velvet box from my pocket. I looked up at Ellery as the

tears wouldn’t stop flowing down her face. “I want to be more than just your lover; I want to be your

happily ever after, your best friend, your husband, and I want you for my wife. Will you marry me,

Ellery Lane?” I opened the box, took out the ring, and held it up to her.

She looked at me, crying as she nodded her head. “Yes, Connor; I will marry you.”

A large grin grew upon my face as I put the ring on her delicate finger and stood up, hugging her

and twirling her around. We kissed passionately and then I had her look up at the sunset. “I wanted to

propose here because I figured you’d want your mom to be here with us.” She put her hand on my

cheek as I wiped away her tears. I smiled as we watched the sunset.

When dinner was ready and being served, I took Ellery’s hand and led her back to the canopy. We

sat down and ate great food. We talked and laughed, and she occasionally cried, but they were tears

of happiness. I held her hand across the table as she stared at her ring. “It’s so beautiful, Connor.”

“A beautiful ring for a beautiful woman,” I said as I got up and took her hand in mine, leading her

to the large white tent that was filled with fluffy pillows and blankets.

A huge grin crossed her face as she entered the tent. “Sex on the beach?” she asked.

“Yes, sex on the beach,” I nodded with a smile.

I slid the spaghetti straps off her shoulders, allowing her entire dress to fall to her feet. She stood

there in only white lace panties as my tongue traveled across her neck and up her jaw line before

joining my mouth with hers.

“I want to make love to you all night; first here, and then at home in every room. When you walk

tomorrow, you’ll be reminded of our passionate night; one that I never want you to forget,” I

whispered. I laid her down on the soft pillows as she watched me take off my shirt, pants, and boxers.

She stared at me with a hunger in her eyes. I bent down and laid myself on my side, propped up on my

elbow as I softly stroked her beautiful breasts, paying special attention to each hardened nipple. She

ran her hand through my hair and brought my head closer for a kiss. Our lips grew hot as
