I couldn't be happier -- December 1995

I rearranged myself so I was sitting upright and cross legged on the bed.  I shrugged.  "I just want to be with you.  I don't need a big wedding," I said, taking his hand again.  "We could really start our lives together.  Isn't that what you want, Perce?" I asked.  We had gotten engaged in June, so really not that long ago.  But there was no point in waiting if we were not going to plan a big wedding.  I was really excited about the idea of just doing it.  No more waiting... even though, if I had to wait for a big wedding to get him tot alk to his family, I would.  But I knew that would not happen any time soon.

I could not believe that she had to ask if I wanted to start my life with her.  I gave her a kiss.  "Of course it's what I want," I assured her.  I kept my forehead against hers after the kiss.  "Penny, if you want to get married tomorrow, I'll be more than happy about it.  I just know that most girls would want a big wedding," I explained.  I just did not want her to look back on her wedding day with regret.  That was the only thing I was concerned about.

I grinned and kissed him again.  I laid down next to hi.  We snuggled up together.  "All I want is to be your wife," I said to him.  I gave another kiss and got more comfortable.  "I love you, Percy.  I'll see you in the morning."  I could not be happier right now falling asleep.  We were going to be getting married soon!

I squeezed her as I got more comfortable.  "I love you, too, Penny," I said softly.  I was pretty sure we both fell asleep smiling.  I could not believe that we would be really doing this soon.  I honestly could not be happier.
