David and I both spot a rather large seashell right the edge of the tide. We both look at it, and then at each other, feeling a spike in competition.
“Should you get it or me?” he says jokingly.
“I’ll get it, I’m faster than you!” I say as I swoop in and grab it—a huge thing, and if it’s full it’s got a full crab in it.
“This shell feels weird,” I say, wiggling my fingers inside but feeling nothing yet…oh wait here’s something.
“What’s in it?”
My jaw clenches shut as I pull out a most alarming but beautiful sight. A wedding ring, hidden in a seashell. I almost think it’s a heavenly coincidence until I see David’s face. Smiling, a little teary-eyed and definitely conveying a deep thought to me. He’s every bit in love with me now, as I’ve been with him. It’s been there all along.
“This is what I want, Amelia. You. I want to marry you. And I want to get married here. Because this is where I fell in love with you the first time.”
“That was twenty years ago, David…” I whisper, finally allowing myself to cry.
“Yes it was…” he says, before taking me into his arms and kissing me like I’ve long to been kissed for so many years. It was all right in front of me. He is the owner of my heart, the man of my dreams. It’s a lesson everyone needs to learn, as the antidote to a lifetime of bad choices. Life always gets better. If we just give love a chance.
