I just returned from a vacation in North Carolina with Yuri and it was the most magical trip I've ever had. One particular day stood out the most, though. On Sunday, we traveled to a place called graveyard field to go camping. On the way there we stopped by a hiking trail that lead to a site called Skinny Dip Falls. It was so beautiful. The water was cold. Cold enough to bite to your bones with its crystal clear water.

We climbed on some boulders to get away from the travelers to enjoy the serenity of the place and we played our "ask me a question" game. He asked me and I pondered for a while. I said "I can't think of anything. You ask me a question." Then he climbed down a boulder and knelt down on one of his knees while fishing in his pocket. My heart was pounding. A wash of adrenaline hit me as I asked "w-what are you doing?!" He opened a black velvet box and said "...will you marry me?"

It was so magical. His voice was so clear against the roaring river. I said yes, of course! I couldn't stop smiling that entire day. The dream I had thought that would never come true finally has. Im engaged to my knight in shining armor.
