<p>Ray rose to the smell of breakfast and turned his head to see it almost done. He got up and started walking back to the camp, admiring the nearly perfect blue sky. As he knelt at the fire to start dishing up the breakfast, he noticed that Clara's sleeping bag was moved differently. As he looked up, he smiled and said, “Good morning.

<p>He looked down at breakfast" I hope you like crispy bacon; I can never cook it right ", he laughs. "I leave it too long" he gently kissed her cheek as he couldn't believe Clara was now his fiancee” I do think he had some first editions arrive a few days ago” He smiled as he began to eat some of his scrabbled eggs " we can come here anytime you want to unwind you are the only other person knows of this place” he turned looking at Clara's beauty before realising he was still wet and shirtless and her sleeve was wet as he let his body warm up he touched the sleep he got wet allowing it to dry quickly as he rummaged his bag for a shirt </p> It didn't feel like a dream a…tag:eternalcityrp.com,2024-02-01:6610746:Comment:4372102024-02-01T21:46:25.146Z✓ Clara Carterhttps://eternalcityrp.com/profile/RebekahvdWilt
<p>It didn't feel like a dream at first, not with the lovely field in front of her; dahlias and baby's breath everywhere, the shades were breathtaking and though she most certainly could not remember having ever seen a field of wild flowers like this before it just seemed so natural she couldn't believe it would have been planted.</p>

<p>It didn't feel like a dream at first, not with the lovely field in front of her; dahlias and baby's breath everywhere, the shades were breathtaking and though she most certainly could not remember having ever seen a field of wild flowers like this before it just seemed so natural she couldn't believe it would have been planted.</p>
<p>Music played in the background, a soft harp, and as she took it all in, blue skies , a slight breeze, an arch in the middle of the field, and Ray dressed in a casual suit, the colour of cream, smiling at her, she fianlly figured out that it was her wedding. </p>
<p>Even dream Clara knew it couldn't be real, though the delicate lace gown was stunning enough to keep her placed in her soft sleep. Waking up slowly had been the goal so she could play out the monatge of romance in her head but when she peeked open an eye and didn't see Ray she sat up straight.</p>
<p>Clara sat in her sleeping bag, looking around, before she stood up, the fire was still going, the sun was rising and since she was always good at guessing the time she gathered it was almost six in the morning. Though she wanted to leave camp and look for Ray she just knew it wouldn't be a good idea, so she'd wait here like a good finance should, we'll she'd wait for a while at least.</p> -Fast forward-

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ray awoke early like he always did when camping he turned to watch Cara asleep in her sleeping bag as he thought about how lucky a guy he was to find a woman as beautiful and caring as Cara was as he quietly got out of his sleeping bag he began to look at the equipment they had used and quietly began to pack away the items they would not need for breakfast taking the large box he began to make his short trek back to the car each movement…</span></p>

<p><br/><br/></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ray's memory took his mind back to when he first was in the woods and the sounds of the footsteps, knowing it was the step of a coyote heavy but quick as he kept moving he heard the tracks follow him before he stopped and began to scan the surroundings for the lone predator as he allowed a fireball to form in his hand as he kept scanning his surroundings before launching the fireball into the ground encircling himself the whimper of the coyote soon followed as it ran off as soon as the fire ignited the flame evaporated with a flick of Ray's wrist as e began the route back to camp but at a slightly quicker pace sitting on rock just in front of the camp as he smiled looking back to see that Cara wasn't awake fully as he walked back to where the fire once roared proudly as he clicked his fingers before starting to prepare breakfast.</span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Leaving the breakfast to cook slowly before turning to the lake, Ray took off his shirt as he walked towards the lake before diving into the lake before resurfacing looking up at the sky as he floated his breath echoing through his ears under the water as the current gently span his body around enjoying the cold water against his skin before flipping on to his front as he began to swim to the other end of the lake stopping a few minutes to catch his breath before making his way back to camp at a gentle pace before arriving back at the camps shore he sat on the shallow shore line as he looked at the shore line.</span></p>

<p>Clara nodded eagerly. " smores sound wonderful," she agreed, the smile on her face never leaving her. The initial shock of his proposal still hung heavy in the air, she never really saw herself finding the same kind of romance her parents had, a best friend kind, the one you could tell all of your secrets too. And now she had it. "Ray," she put her hand on his, "you don't have to talk about this if you don't feel comfortable, I would love to know more about you, but I don't expect you…</p>

<p>Apparently having gained the confidence to talk about it, she listened as he spoke about the past that still haunted him, she'd already known it hadn't been a perfect childhood and she always suspected it had hurt him deeply, it didn't sound like Ray had had a mother, and for that she mourned for him. The hand she had been using to touch his, she slipped inbetween his fingers and gave a good squeeze. "There's not much you can say that could change my mind about you, I love you Ray, your past is just that, your past, I know it was terrible but if it weren't for that past and Samuel you wouldn't be the man I know and love."</p>
<p>"Oh, I'm sure you're my captain," He stood up and she followed along. "I'll help, I can't wait to see how you make these hot chocolates, I'm gonna get out my notebook to make notes," she replied reaching for her bag next to the man of her dreams.</p> I love you too with every emb…tag:eternalcityrp.com,2023-05-08:6610746:Comment:4364272023-05-08T18:08:46.826Z✓ Ray Heraldhttps://eternalcityrp.com/profile/JoeDiamond676

<p>Even though Clara had suggested it, she didn't really believe he'd want to marry her. But the way he blushed, and how the campfire rose in flames, she knew she was right. "Oh my goodness, I'm right aren't I?" She was flabbergasted. Clara listened to his words as they rolled off his tongue they went straight through her veins to her heart where they would be nestled there forever. She was speeches as he guided her to the shore, her eyes never leaving him. Even though she had so much to say,…</p>

Clara listened to his words as they rolled off his tongue they went straight through her veins to her heart where they would be nestled there forever. She was speeches as he guided her to the shore, her eyes never leaving him. Even though she had so much to say, so much to ask, she couldn't find her words, so she let him guide her. </p>
<p>Clara wasn't sure what he meant but this was the perfect spot. She didn't really care if he didn't have a ring, this was her first serious relationship and she loved him with her whole heart, he was her soulmate, so when he knelt to the ground and presented her a hoop big enough to go around her finger, she slipped her hand in his, knelt to the ground beside him and nodded her head like crazy, "of course, I'll marry you," With the make shift ring in placed she pulled him into a hug, her head tucking itself in the crock of his neck, against his skin, she whispered; "I love you with everything I have, Ray, no one could ever compare, you're my soulmate, and that light you think came from me was always inside of you, just waiting to be let out, all it needed was a little nourishment. I can't believe you'd want me to be your wife, but I'm honored" she pulled back lightly and kissed the gentle spot behind his ear.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ray blushed as his mind exploded as Clara had said the one thing he had wanted to do for a while“ He smiled as he knew Clara could read him like his mind bottled up with mixed emotions as subconsciously he allowed his mind to build up a fire of happiness in his mind“ oops“ He laughed as he turned to the campfire as he calmed the flames down again“ Um did you see the kettle“ He laughed nervously as he looked at her as he raised his hand to stroke her cheek “I…</span></p>

"You're my best friend too, since the moment we met by the lake, " Clara's arms pulled the jacket closer and with her plate now in her hand she took a few bites, "You really do know how to cook, I could be lost out here for days and with your survival skills I'd be set," </p>
<p>They munched away at there meal, but Clara couldn't help but think about his words, instead of mulling over it any longer she decided to just voice her thoughts, "you know, this has been amazing if I didn't know any better I would think you had a ring in you pocket and were going to propose?"

<p>She smiled. "I made you blush, it's cute when you do that," she stood up from the log and walked over to the bag, searching for it before finally placing her hand on the lemon. She handed it to him watching as he lit the fire. "Yes, I like parsley," as he sat she followed suit, she slipped her hand on his knee for support as he told her. "You always have me to talk to you know? I'm here for you, you're not alone," she leaned over and kissed his cheek hoping he understood the comfort he always gave her, she could return to him too. </p>
