Her brow furrowed. “Marry you? Cameron, I wasn’t asking you for that!”
“I know. I’m asking you for that. I thought we could go to Paris on our honeymoon. Stay on the Left Bank, explore the city, eat at Les Deux Magots and Café de Flore, walk all the bridges, tour Versailles, visit the bouquinistes … you know, a whole Midnight in Paris experience.”
“You’ve thought about this?”
“Every day since Christmas.” He kissed her hand. “Forgive me, but this stone floor is killing my knee.” He stood up and drew her to him, repeating, “Will you marry me?”
Suddenly tears shimmered in those lovely expressive eyes and she was laughing and crying all at the same time. “Yes, yes. I will marry you.”
“Can you say it in French?” he teased gently between kisses.
She swallowed hard, sniffled, and after a moment of thought said, “Oui, oui, je t’épouserai.” Then she kissed him, tender and sweet. Leaning back, she stared at what he was sure was his bedazzled expression. “You have no idea what I just said, do you? Do you even speak French?”
He shook his head and used his best French accent. “Non.”
“How are you ever going to get around Paris if you don’t speak French?”
Incandescent with happiness, he wrapped his arms around her. He wasn’t sure if it was his heart or hers that he felt pounding between them. It didn’t matter—he was hers, she was his, they were an us and would be forever. “You’re just going to have to be by my side every moment. On our honeymoon and for the rest of our lives.”
She smiled. “I can do that.”
