My Vampire Prince by T. Skye Sutton Page A

nervous.
                  After dinner, we return to my living room with more champagne. Seamus comes in to join us. Seamus did not attend dinner, I wonder why he is coming in now.
     
    Matt ’ s P.O.V
     
                  My baby girl met a man. She says that she loves him and sounds like she is sincere about it. I am not to sure though. It has been almost four years since my Victoria has so much has said a man ’ s name to me, now she claims that she is in love with one. I don ’ t understand why she didn ’ t tell me about him before today. I am not mad at her or disappointed, I just wish she had trusted me enough to tell me right away.
                  At any rate, I am meeting him tonight. I don ’ t really want to go tonight, I want to have time to think about the situation over before I come face to face with the guy who stole my daughter ’ s heart. I said I will go though, so I have to start getting ready.
                  As soon as I am done getting dressed, I head to Vicky ’ s house. I am trying to be open minded, I just hope he is not a looser. When I get to Victoria ’ s everyone is already there. I walk in and right away we start eating dinner. I talk to Lliam a lot, he actually seems like a pretty good guy. Great, actually. I couldn ’ t ask for a better man to steal Vicky ’ s heart. He has a great personality, a nice car, he lives in Litchburgh so I am assuming his job pays pretty well, and he has his own personal driver. I have never really understood why people need drivers, but to each their own. I like him anyways.
                  I do notice however, that he is really fidgety. He must be nervous or something. I first noticed it when Vicky introduced us, I ’ ve been here over an hour now, his nervousness should have left. I bet he is up to something, but what. I will find out before the night is over, I promise myself.
     
    Victoria ’ s P.O.V

 
                  Lliam stands up from my couch, even more nervous now than he has been all evening. He taps his champagne glass rapidly, “ I have something to say to everyone. ” We all stop talking and give Lliam our undivided attention. What is he doing? What is he going to say that hasn ’ t been said already? “ I am so happy to meet you all, and I want to say to each of you that I love Victoria more than life itself. ” He gets down on one knee in front of me and reaches into his pocket. What on earth is he doing? My friends and family are staring at him in shock.
                  “ Victoria, darling, I love you with all of my heart. I have never felt this way with another person, and I want to spend my entire life with you by my side. Would you do me the honor of being my wife? Will you marry me Victoria? ” Oh my God! He just met my family and friends, and me for that matter. Now, he is proposing to me. Ellen and Lianna both look so excited. Mom and dad are staring at me probably wondering what I am going to say. I day dreamt of our wedding ceremony in the bath last night. I do love him more than anyone else, ever. I never want him to leave me. He is starting at me nervously, waiting for me to answer. I stand up and grab him and pull up to me. We are both standing now. I wrap my hands around his neck, jump up and around his waist, and kiss him quickly. “ Oh, Lliam, I love you so much. Yes! Yes, of course I will marry you. ”
                  We kiss again, this time very fervently. He whispers in my ear that my family is in the room and I must get down off of him before we start not being able to control our actions again. I slide off of him even though I don ’ t want to. Everyone is now congratulating us, even my dad. Seamus walks up to me, grabs hold of my hand and kisses it. “ My lady, I think congratulations are due. ” I quickly thank him and smile. I think that it is a little unprofessional to be kissing my hand as I am now engaged
