When Sander shifted, she lifted her head and opened her eyes to look at him as he stood in front of her. It seemed he had something in his mind, and she offered him a reassuring smile to encourage him to speak. Often they didn't need words, just a glance or gesture and they would know what the other meant. Her eyes fluttered closed for a moment as Sander brushed the hair away from her face.

When he spoke, she opened her eyes once more to focus on him. She beamed at his words, and began to open her mouth to agree- when he kept going. Honor of... she was confused for a moment when Sander's words failed. However, as he reached down and brought up a little box she took a slight step back as a flood of emotions overtook her.

Joy, of course, but panic joined in. They were too young, she had so many plans and while she did love him with all of her heart... "Sander, I... we... I'm not ready!" she exclaimed, and while part of her wanted to backpedal from the situation she kept herself in front of him. IT wouldn't have been fair to him. "We're too young to get married!" she said, shaking her head violently from side to side, leaving her dizzy.


With abated breath, Sander watched Tessa closely. He saw the changes of emotion on face. First joy....and then on no...was that panic. Sander's heart began to sink. She was going to say no.

Then he heard what she said and realized that she had misunderstood his gesture. 'That's what happens when you don't say what you're supposed to say, Sander. People have to try to read you mind.' Sander admonished himself.

Sander quickly shook his head.

"No...no....I'm not giving you an engagement ring....I mean I may one day....sometime in the future...I mean...." Sander stammered out. Then he paused. He was doing all this all wrong. He had to slow down and do it right.

"I know that we're too young to get married. This isn't an engagement ring. This is a promise ring. This ring is my promise to you to remain faithful to you. To love you and to never cheat on you," Sander blurted out the reason for the ring.

"I know we're too young to get married. We both have things we want to accomplish first. I want to play pro-ice hockey and you first need to graduate and then play Pro-Quidditch. I just want to give you this as a promise that when the time is right, I would like to marry you. So this ring represents my promise to you,"

Sander took a deep breath and got down on his knees. Holding the ring up again, he looked deep into Tessa's eyes, cleared his throat and asked his question.

"Tessa Hedge, I love you very much and always will. Will you do me the honor of wearing my Promise Ring?"

Please say yes and make me the happiest man in the universe.
