Love Agreement With The King

The restaurant began serving food to the only table taken, the one where John and Rose sat. It was at the center of the table and around it, there were plenty of vases and flowers.

The food was served by two well-mannered waiters who sounded so excited to be serving the royal couple that they made sure to use the politest sentence and the most formal ones.

They started serving appetizers and then pour a prestigious wine into their glasses.

When he left a chuckle escaped from Roselyn's lips. She had never been in a resort so classy. It seemed even huger since it was empty and every little noise echoed in the lunchroom of the restaurant.

Roselyn glanced down to the shrimp canapés, a common dish known as open tarts. Roselyn grabbed one and took a bite of it.

Plano music began to play and Roselyn's smile grow bigger.

"Roselyn," he whispered looking at her with his handsome face and penetrating eyes, the kind of face which would make any girl loses in but no girl was allowed to since he was hers.

"You and our family might be the best things that happened to me. I know I told you that already but it's the truth." John said sincerely as if his heart was speaking for him.

Roselyn looked at him gratefully, she felt the same for him, he didn't only change her purposes in life but he also made her life worth living for. Love worth feeling.

John stretched his hand to grab her tightly, he caressed her sweetly, from palm to her fingers.

He flinched away to give a nod to the waiter, at his gesture few waiters walked toward their table lifting so many vases full of flowers. They placed them on the floor all around the table.

"I wish I could fall in love with you every day and I wish I could tell you how much I loved you every day." John smiled, "But I am afraid those are things that can't be done twice. But there is one thing we can do again, Rose..." He murmured.

All of a sudden the light in the room turned off and the flowers lit up, allowing Roselyn to notice the vases had a light wire all over their stems so their table was the only enlightened one.

Roselyn was moved, the moment seemed to come out of the sweetest fairy tale, was she dreaming?

She could hear him clear his voice as if he was going to say something important, Roselyn held her breath.

"I can't fall in love with you twice but this I can do again." He said. 

In the hand, John was caressing appeared a ring which was made of a light wire as well.

"Will you marry me again, Roselyn?" He said.

After that question the light turned on again and new petals appeared onto the ground and on the table, during their chat, the food on the table was brought away and new flowers filled the surface of the table.

Roselyn looked at the ring, her eyes filled with tears, she didn't expect him to propose to her. They were already married why would he propose? 

Regardless of all the reasons he might have Roselyn couldn't be happier, she wanted to marry him again and again.

Roselyn nodded, "of course I do!" She exclaimed.

The waiters smiled from afar and John leaned closer to her to press his lips on her.

His kiss was intense as he kept holding her hand as if he was scared when he stopped holding it the spell would be gone.

After a few more kisses the waiters walked back to the table to ask John if they could start serving food again, when John said they could the waiters did their congratulations to the couple and then found their way back to the kitchen to bring out the starters.

After one and half hours they were waiting for the cakes, Roselyn had never had a date before that day but she knew for sure that even if she had dates that one would be the best one undoubtedly.

Roselyn's gaze fell on the ring made of light wire every few minutes just to check if that moment was real because it seemed too beautiful and sweet to be happening to someone like her, none other than a normal girl from the village.

Four different cakes came to the table and Roselyn was amazed to see one of them was the triple chocolate mousse, it was crazy he remembered that cake and it became such an important cake for them.

They ate a few bites of each cake and then finally stood up. When she arose from her chair she noticed the waiters had created a carpet with the petals which lead to a closed door.

Roselyn was even more speechless, just when she thought the date couldn't get any better John had a new surprise in his pocket.

She felt like a kid, coveting to know where the petals led to.

John noticed the big smile on her lips and he understood she probably saw the petals.

"Shall we go?" John asked, stretching his hand which Roselyn took without hesitation.

They walked on the petals, the sweet piano's melody began to play again and at each step, she took she felt like she was the luckiest woman in the entire world.

They walked by the tables filled with candles and new scents dimmed them.

Her heartbeat beating so fast that she could barely keep it under control by taking long breathes. 

Every time he made her a surprise it was like she came back in her youth.

He made her believe in true love so much that the reality she was living became better than the one she read in books.

They stopped in front of the door, Roselyn immediately rested her hand on the handle and John covered her hand with his.

They looked at each other smiling. 

"Ready to open it?" John asked.

Roselyn didn't answer, excited as she had never been before she budged the door open.
