It's was early morning when she heard his voice gently whispering to her. Slowly, she awoke from her peaceful slumber, hearing him mention that they had a plane to catch. She opened her eyes and a smile curled around her lips. Oh how she loved to wake up to that face. As reality hit, it dawned on her just how excited she was. It was Valentine's Day and as far as she knew, there was a special surprise trip that Niels had in store for her. As they left the hotel, a teasing grin crawled across Niels' face. He had another plan... Blindfolded and then carried into the airplane, Amanda was beside herself with delight. This surprise couldn't be more exciting. She'd even had to cover her ears for all of the announcements, so she still had no clue where they were headed. In the airplane, she regained her sight, and together they watched their departure from Rio. The plane glided above the beautiful, glistening ocean of Rio before sailing through the clouds. Amanda smiled, curling up with her love beneath the blankets provided bythe stewardess They would catch up on some sleep en route to wherever they were going. ...and with a yawn, she dozed off. ...hours later... Awoken gently, she stretched again, listening to Niels as he mentioned they were almost there. Almost there! She was beside herself with excitement once again. There was a ping and the announcements began. A soft smile touched Niels' lips and he whispered, "Listen carefully." At last, she would know where they were headed. ...VILNIUS? Amanda smiled widely and hugged Niels tightly. They both knew what Vilnius meant to them. It was their beginning; where they'd first met each other. As they left the plane, there was a permanent smile on her face. She inhaled deeply, more than happy to be back where their story began. The first place they traveled to was the Cathedral. Standing there, at the altar, Amanda got lost in her dreams. The thought ran through her head again: did he still want to marry her? She didn't want to doubt it, but sometimes the thought just sneaked up on her. At least there was one thing she didn't doubt: he loved her. She'd just be patient, she decided. Today, she'd just enjoy being his Valentine... Comments #1. Glad you love it baby
