July 04, 2008 at 12:39esl_technocratsaysShe felt a flash of anger, but quickly suppressed it, and with a sweet smile, said, "I have a surprise for you too."

July 04, 2008 at 17:43esl_technocratsays"Well," sighed Melissa, "she's led a full life."
July 04, 2008 at 19:35lizbdavisBrian watched her exit, leaving his gift behind. I guess today wasn't the day to propose, he thought, tucking the blue box in his pocket.

July 05, 2008 at 14:35❤honeymicShe knew she could never give herself fully to Brian until she dealt with the current situation, no matter the danger or the cost.
July 05, 2008 at 14:37❤honeymicShe thought he understood that, but could never stay angry at him for long.
July 05, 2008 at 14:42❤honeymic"I only hope he understands the meaning of the ring I switched out of the blue box," she thought, while idly touching the sparkling diamond

July 06, 2008 at 19:41mindeleiShe couldn't believe how fast things were changing. Life used to make sense, but she felt as though she was questioning everything she knew.
July 08, 2008 at 12:07nononiIf Dante was going to continue to disrupt her life with his houdini-esque reappearing acts, she would never be able forget what had happened
July 08, 2008 at 15:30BethRitterGuthbecause it was the scariest moment of her life.
