The topic of marriage had never really crossed Amity’s mind until someone mentioned it to her; now it was all she could think about: “If you love someone, you get married. I love Luz; therefore, we should get married, but is that what she wants, or are we still too young for that?” Amity asked herself.
Amity paced back and forth thinking about this for hours until Emira and Edric came in the room. “We can hear you pacing and mumbling.” Edric said, “You’ve been pacing for three hours, Mittens. What’s on your mind?” Emira added.
“If I proposed to Luz, do you think she’d say yes?” Amity asked, making her siblings shocked; the room was silent for a few minutes. “I’m sure she’d say yes, but aren’t you a little young to get married? I mean, you’re only eighteen,” Emira finally said.
Amity stopped pacing. “So I shouldn’t ask yet?” Amity asked, “It’s your relationship; you have to make that decision yourself. Do you want to get married now or wait?” Edric asked.
Amity thought about this question. “I’m not sure,” she mumbled, and over the next few days she asked herself that same question till finally she made up her mind she wanted to marry Luz.
It took a lot of planning, but Amity did everything she needed to propose, even getting the okay from Camila, who was more than happy about it. Finally, Amity took Luz to a nice spot. “Luz,” Amity said softly, “I have something really important to ask you.” Amity said, trying to keep her voice steady.
“What is it?” Luz asked, “I’ve been thinking about this for a while now, and I’m finally ready to ask Luz Noceda I’ve loved you for such a long time, and I can’t imagine my life without you in it. I want to spend all of my life with you, so… will you marry me?”
Luz was shocked she hadn’t expected Amity to propose, “Yes!” Luz said after about a minute the two hugged tightly, crying happy tears together, “I’m so happy you said yes.” Amity said Luz cupped Amity’s face. “Why wouldn’t I?” Luz asked, kissing Amity softly.
