His other hand dug into his pocket and pulled out a small, red crushed velvet box. Priscilla wanted to throw up again. "I was going to wait until your birthday next week but considering the circumstances. I love you. Will you marry me?" Rex opened the box. A gigantic, round, platinum banded diamond stared back at her. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEOa0ePzW2
Priscilla put her head in her hands and cried. Over the past day, she'd spent at least 24 of the past 48 hours crying. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTPqhh1ev1
Rex touched her hair, his heart racing hoping he didn't upset her too much and wanting her with all his heart to say yes. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIspCaxB7M
"Babe. Are you okay?" He kissed the top of her head. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqhcLlus41
She looked up at him. Her eyes red with tears and dark with circles. "No, Rex." 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGdAgbPumF
His heart sank. Rex sat the box down on the couch. The white of the sofa making the bright red box appear like even more of an eyesore. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWxKGHPmxl
Priscilla had to admit it was a beautiful ring. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzM1Mrab90Y
"No you're not okay or no you're not going to marry me?" His voice dropped at the last portion of his question. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRy3qJpjBT
"How could you do this?" Priscilla knew it wasn't the reaction he was looking for. Her emotions were running at full speed and she felt out of control. "This is too much." 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGPb4fL7BH
All Rex wanted to hear was a simple word. Yes. Yes Rex Harper I'll marry you and have your children and we'll be happy forever. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzw8YbVsss
Rex sighed, wanting to cry himself. Something he'd only done twice in his life. When his mother died and again when Daisy died. A part of him wondered if Priscilla was worth his tears. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZXkwonvau
"What's wrong? Please tell me." 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxxBqIgs71
The sound of his voice broke her heart. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCcM2BkfmO
"I'm sorry, Rex. This isn't what I want." 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdg1XMiGVZm
"What do you mean?" 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3hzlpcO7s
"A husband. Babies. All that." She said as if she were referring to condiments and not human beings. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOX77myCoG
"I see. You mean you don't want that with me or with anyone?" 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsGym5B9XK
"Not sure. This wasn't supposed to happen."1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBxOvmaHRe
"But it does happen. All the time. People get married. They have babies. They get married because they're going to have a baby. It's life." 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1BVZjWIdc
Priscilla ignored him. Life was crapping all over her. It wasn't all pretty weddings and cute babies; sometimes your wife gets murdered and you get knocked up. "You never answered me." 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG93J0ODonX
As much as he didn't want to hear it. He had to. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRj9nBWN0i
"You were going to propose to me. On my birthday? You love me?"She gave him a quizzical glance. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCX9AGzbPGt
Rex's head fell down. He couldn't even look her in the eye. The more she talked, the more he couldn't stand the sight of her. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EdkGrGrGC
"Yes." 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8E8wTRmZw
"Oh." She was fidgety and her tense body language making Rex even more uncomfortable. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ynLEhrn86
"That's all you can say? Has this not meant anything to you? Do I not mean anything to you?" Rex felt like he'd drank on an empty stomach. This was by far one of the worst moments of his life. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafNJsrB6A1
"Of course you do, Rex. Yes. You mean the world to me. This just isn't what I want. Maybe someday. But right here, right now. No." 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZeGcvMfbM
"Is this something I did or didn't do?" Rex had to know. "Don't hold back. I'm a big boy. I can take it." 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2zNIE4KMq
Priscilla touched his cheek. "No. Not at all. You're incredible and not who I thought I would ever be with." 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzlwp0Gd8x
"What's that supposed to mean?" 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOV2w5A1qSH
She dropped her hand from his cheek. "Well that's your past with Alex. My friend." 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxsvgNBhdC
Rex looked confused. "Is that a problem? It hasn't been so far." 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8g0ezUP3yz
"No. Not for what we have now but I can't marry my friend's ex-husband." She sounded appalled by the notion. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv492RWqw3w
"Since when do you care about a thing like that?" Rex surprised by her impromptu concern for social decorum. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTj4glW6dme
"I don't think it's a good idea." 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoiIS1U13H
Rex knew all he needed to and didn't want to talk to her anymore. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPacL0sOnE
"Since you won't marry me I guess you'll be getting rid of the baby?"1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCckg8rBGG
"Jesus. Don't say it like that. Yes. I saw the doctor this morning." 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4xGZm6YPc
"I'm sure Hartley will cover for you." This wasn't the first time Rex had been in this situation. "Besides I knew." 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdCePRIpBw
"You knew? How?" Priscilla looked at him, amazed at his inquisitiveness. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XyRW2D7kH
"I've been through this before. I know the signs." 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bsLxGmSKg
"Well I guess you would. Hadn't thought about that." 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoofSxL2ILs
"I wouldn't expect you to." 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHXTMmo49D
The atmosphere between them insufferable. Their fleeting sentences so unlike their relationship. "I don't know what else to say to you, Priscilla. I'm leaving." Rex stood up, placing the ring in his pocket and headed towards her door without looking back. 1225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlVylV5KEJ
