All Washed Up

wasp-nest

He chased her down the beach laughing, catching her as she ran. He panted, then laughed, “I didn’t think I was going to catch you after all my planning!”

She looked down , suddenly realizing what was happening and gasped..

“You make me feel like the wild winds of the ocean.” he smiled as he put the ring on her hand. “I have no doubt that I want to spend every minute of my life with you., will you marry me?”

With the ring safely on her finger, they danced in the waves.

“Oh, my God!” “Oh my God!” She cried. The ring was gone.

Suddenly a wave washed up between her searching hands. Something sparkling amidst the shells. She grabbed the ring and smiled up at him, “I forgot to say, ‘I will, she laughed.”

    I think that ring needs to be sized, but what a relief that she found it! Now it will make a good story instead of a sad one.

    Lovely story! This had a much happier ending than a video I saw recently. The boyfriend proposed on an outcropping of rock as the tide came in. They both got knocked into the water! They managed to pull each other out of the ocean, but I’m not sure what happened to the ring…epic fail.

    Nice story and I’m glad it had a happy ending. My friend lost his wedding ring at beach once and he wasn’t so lucky.
