"Let's get married."
Zoey gazed at his pair of russet eyes. The days when Matthew was sleeping, Zoey had reflected on her actions repeatedly.
She regretted many things she thought she could have done them better. The reason Zoey swore that once he woke up, she wouldn't let him go.
Her love for him might overwhelm him, but that was better than suppressing her feelings. She couldn't live another lifetime of regret and pain. She wanted to live with him. Regardless of the dangers of this love, she didn't want to care anymore.
Zoey came to an agreement with herself. Even if it's dangerous, she would take all the risk and be with him. If danger came in their way, Zoey would protect him even with the cost of her life.
"I've been waiting and waiting. I don't want to wait anymore or ignore what my heart wants. Let's get married, if that's what you want." Zoey expressed without averting her eyes away from Matthew's.
