Read Between the Lines

"Welcome home!" Perry exclaimed as Paul walked through the door.
"Whoa! You look fancy!" Paul laughed.
"Martin told me to dress nicely. He's taking me to dinner, remember?" She laughed.
"Right." Paul frowned.
"What's wrong?" Perry asked worriedly.
"Nothing." He said, forcing a smile.
"Don't worry Paul, it's not like he's proposing." she smiled.
"Yeah, Paul." Martin smiled, walking out of the bathroom.
He froze and his mouth fell open when he saw Perry.
"You look amazing." he whispered.
"Thanks." she blushed.
"Come on." he smiled.
She walked out the door first, and before Martin closed the door, he threw a small, velvet box at Paul, and yelled, "Keep this for me 'til later!"
"What?" Perry asked.
"Nothing." Martin smirked.

"This is amazing." Perry gushed, looking around at the expensive resturant.
"Are you finished, I want to take you somewhere else." Martin asked.
She nodded and they left.
"The waiter told me about this place." Martin laughed, taking her hand and leading her through the woods.
"The woods?" she laughed.
"No." Martin smiled.
She gasped as they entered a small clearing around the river. There was a slight waterfall. It was beautiful.
"This is amazing." she breathed.
"Perry, I wanna tell you something." Martin said, laying down on the grass.
"What is it?" she smiled, laying next to him.
He grabbed her hand, and she turned to face him.
"I'm in love with you." he said slowly.
She sat there for a minute, processing what he had said. She looked up and met his eyes.
"I think I love you, too." she said shyly.
Martin grinned and pressed his lips against hers.
