“Hey Chris?” I ask, breaking our staring spell.

“Yes,” he answers sweetly.

“Will you be my maid of honor?”

His facial expression changes to shocked.

“What?” He asks in confusion.

“You are my closest friend. This will give us a chance to spend more time together. I don’t want anyone else to do it but you. ”

“You want me to be at your side when you marry the guy you’re going to spend the rest of your life with?”

He knows just how to stump me.

“I want you to be my maid of honor. I know this is hard, but please do this for me?”

He takes a heavy sigh and there is a moment of silence. He
looks into my eyes again.

“Ok, I’ll do it. I don’t have to wear a dress right?”

I laugh, “No, you don’t.”

I kiss him, “Thanks Chris, you are amazing.”

“How can I say no to you anyway?” We both laugh.
