A ring box. Small, blue, velvet. And when I pop it open, a diamond set in a perfect silver band glimmers back up at me. I gaze up at Landon, who is grinning that same cocky grin that he wore the day I met him.
"So, will you marry me?" he asks.
I can hardly speak. This is perfect – the sweetest, loveliest proposal he could have come up with. And I am already sure that he knows what my answer is going to be.
"Of course I’ll marry you!” I exclaim, and I throw myself into his arms, knocking the box out of his hands as he catches me where I stand.
I bury my head against his shoulder, still clutching the ring box, unable to keep the smile off of my face.
"I love you so much," I mumble into his ear, my face pressed to his neck.
"I love you, too," he whispers back. "And I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with you, Lucky. I mean that."
"I know you do," I reply, and I pull back to gaze into his eyes – the eyes of the man I want to spend the rest of my days with. And I know that he’s the best damn prize I ever could have pulled out of the cereal box.
