"Caleb?" Ashton asked after a whole minute had passed. Honestly speaking, before he pulled the whole speech he was very nervous. Unsure even if he should pop the question. Now that cat was out of the bag he didn't know what else to do until Caleb gave him an answer.
Caleb's eyes were still fixated on the ring and he was so still that Ashton could tell Caleb had even stopped breathing. It was as if Caleb completely shut down. "FYI, You can say no" Ashton cleared his throat nervously.
"No" Caleb mumbled but then quickly mumbled, "I am not saying no to you, I am saying, no, I don't want to say No. I mean I am not saying Yes, but I am also not saying No. I am not even sure what I am saying at this point" Caleb rambled on and breathed to take a minute. "Are you sure?" He asked Ashton reluctantly.
"Wouldn't have asked you if I weren't. I love you a lot, and I would love to marry you" mumbled Ashton. "If you will like the same". He added.
