Kenzie unfurled herself from her corner and sat closer to Hunter, wrapping her arms around him as he cried. She couldn't believe what he'd just told her. She didn't want to believe it. But she really did, and it hurt her more than words could say. Especially when he'd said that he'd tried to kill himself, more than once, and had almost succeeded, too.
She didn't speak to Hunter, just let him cry, resting her head on his shoulder so he could rest his on hers. A few tears slipped down her cheeks, but she bit her lip to keep more from escaping.
Hunter pulled Kenzie closer, letting his tears spill, because for once, he couldn’t control them. After letting it all out, he took a deep but shaky breath. He searched for her fingers and slowly, he slipped something on her finger.
“Kenzie, I know I’m not perfect. I do stupid things and sometimes I act before I think. But I do love you, and despite how broken I am, I don’t want to leave you,” he took a deep breath to calm himself down. “When I’m with you, everything hurts less. I feel happy, like there’s nothing wrong with me and that I’m perfect. You make me feel perfect, you bring me together and make me feel like I’m much more than a puppet. I know we’re young and I know you might think that I’m making an abrupt decision, but I can make you happy, which I intend to do. I’m an artist, and hopefully an actor in the future so I can maintain a perfect, peaceful future for the both of us. Marry me, Kenzie. You don’t have to give me an answer right away. You can take your time. But know this, I’m not making this decision because of the situation. I’m doing it because I want to live the rest of my life with you. It’s sudden, I know, but I want to be able to call you my wife instead of my girlfriend.” Finally, Hunter stopped talking.
Kenzie quickly pulled away from Hunter to look down at her hand in confusion. She gasped at the sight of the rose gold ring around her finger, then glanced up at Hunter, her mouth hanging open and eyes wide. He just proposed to her. He proposed!
She glanced back down at the ring again, and then up at Hunter. This couldn't be real, right? How could this be real?
But it was.
A huge grin split her face as she started to nod, slowly at first, but then faster and with more excitement.
"Yes, yes, a thousand times, yes! Of course I'll marry you, Hunter!" she exclaimed, throwing her arms around his neck.
Hunter immediately hugged her back, relief coursing through his veins. She had said yes. She had said yes to his proposal.
“I’m so happy right now, you can’t even imagine,” he breathed out. “And I was a huge mess just a few minutes ago. I promise I won’t let you regret it.”
Kenzie was giddy with joy, and she felt she would burst at any second. She was engaged now. Hunter was no longer her boyfriend; he was her fiancé. That thought alone was enough to send another rush through her.
She gently pulled back from the hug and studied Hunter's face for a moment, then leaned toward him again to let her lips brush his cheek in a soft kiss.
Hunter grinned, resting his face in the crook of her neck. She wasn’t just his girlfriend anymore. She was his fiancée.
“I hope your father doesn’t skin me for this,” he joked.
"He wouldn't dare," Kenzie replied, smiling. "He knows better than to get in the way of a woman in love. Even if he did, though, I'd just have to stitch you back together."
Hunter looked wounded.
“You wouldn’t save me from him?” He asked, feigning hurt. “What a cruel fiancée of mine. You’d rather he tear me to pieces than save me. How horrid of you.”
Kenzie playfully slapped his leg. "You know that's not what I meant," she defended herself, laughing.

Oh mah gorsh)
(CUTE!!!)
(XD I swear, I had so much second-hand excitement for Kenzie…)
(Lol
And I realize now that Leah is just…………stuck back a billion pages ago and has done absolutely nothing…..)
(Well, very soon Kenzie will be making some exciting phone calls.)
(Or video calls… Maybe she should do that.
I think everyone would be quite excited to receive a video call about an engagement, don't you?)
(Sorry!! I was out and I just got home!!)
Hunter crossed his arms as he looked at Kenzie, his previous worries all forgotten, his daddy issues stuck at the back of his head.
“When do you suppose we tell the others?” Hunter asked instead. “If we don’t tell them anything, how long do you think it would take for them to notice the ring on your finger?”
(It's fine!)
"Oh, Willow would notice right away, I'm sure. Maybe we should call them now?" Kenzie suggested with a shrug.
