   “What?” he asked as she looked at her, clearly shocked. That was not what he expected at all. He was trying to clear the shock from his face and voice as he heard it when he heard himself speak. He nearly choked when he had processed her words even though they were clear.“I asked you if you would marry me?” she asked. She was straight-faced. She looked at him and saw that he was shocked. It was amusing in some ways, but she was also slightly confused because he said it was what he wanted.“That isn’t a question you joke about, honey.” He said as he swallowed. “Even when we are talking about it for the future.”“I know that.” She said as she looked at him. She was still clear-faced and was waiting for him to answer her. “Mack, I know it isn’t a joke, and I am being serious.&rdq

   As they entered the next store, it was for parties. He looked at her as she looked around with wide eyes. “Did you never have a party?” he asked softly. He knew a lot about her right then. She had been the one to be“Not really.” She said. “I mean, I have gone to them, but I didn’t realize there was so much you could get that was all in one place. This is good to know for the future. It could also be a help since I didn’t know about any of this stuff was here.”“Well, look around. You are going to need balloons and other things as well. The area is open, so we can set it up outside or under a cabin area if the weather decides to go against us. But everything that we need is right here for it to be a great day.”“Balloons?” she asked.“You know to go around as decorations. I figured you really aren’

 “I can do that. “she said with a slight smile. “It might be hard at times, but you know I am willing to try things. If they can give me the same time to find my feet like you do, I will be fine.”“Yes. I do.” He said as he pulled her close. “Now that I made that call, I am going to call Gabe. Word travels fast in the family. I want to ask him to come before it is seen as an afterthought.”“Okay. “she said. “I am just looking at all of this stuff.”He went and picked up his phone again and then she heard him. “Hey, so I have something to talk to you about,” Mack said. Then he sighed, “Yeah, sure later.”Then he made another call. “So hey, I have something I would like to tell you.” He paused and then looked at her sitting on the edge of the other room. “Yeah, sure later.” He hung up the phone, and then he repeated the proces

    Waking up in the morning, Mack was ready to make the day a good one and better than the one before though knowing that he almost lost her was enough to make him show her throughout the night how much he did love her. He was taking her to the place he thought would be perfect for them to have the ceremony. He knew that he had a few surprises for her left yet. He would talk to the captain of the department he worked for. Mack knew that he was an ordained minister. That would be one thing taken care of.Basically, the only thing they would have to do was get the license. He really hoped she would like the place he was thinking of. The only way to actually was for her to see it. He could do a lot with the area as well. She was the one who might not really like the ideas he was having, though. He really didn’t think she would care, but he was never going to underestimat

     Henni went out the next day to the place she had two dresses picked out. She was looking around and then she thought she saw some people that she knew. She looked over and then saw them closer, and it was exactly who she thought it was. It was the women she had met a few months ago. It was the ones who were with the guys that had hurt Mack. This was not going to be good if they saw her.As she went on to look at the dresses, it was hard not to overhear the group as they thought they were the only people in there even though there were quite a few other people there. Every time they started, she had to roll her eyes. She looked at the dress she had narrowed it down to. She smiled as she took it off the hanger. It had fit like a glove when she had tried it on last time.The style was perfect for everything, including the area. That was when she heard the comments to the woman who had caused Mack to see
