The ring felt heavy on my finger now. When Ramsey had first proposed, I had been giddy with joy, but now it was different. Marriage was the last thing on my mind, not with the knowledge of how to defeat the Dark One in my mind, too.
I contemplated telling him about the contents of my father's letter but I knew he wouldn't understand.
I stared at the ring for the longest time, then lifted my head up to smile at him.
"We will get married," I started "But can we do it after this fight with the Dark One?"
"What difference does it make?" he said quietly. I need to know that I can never be separated from you. These past few weeks without you here, I went insane. I don't want that anymore."
"This is…sudden," I managed to say. "We're in the middle of a war. I've been unconscious for days. Nathan – Xander – is raising armies against us. And you want us to get married? Don't you think that would be too insensitive of us?"
