Title: There's No Time But Now Rating: G Length: 249 Competitor: Faleron Round/Fight: 1/B Summary: The timing will never be perfect, so Fal decides to make of it what he can.
“Kel…have you ever thought about marriage?” “Yes.” “Well?” “Well, what?” “What do you think?” “Gods, Fal. Do we really need to talk about this?” “Don’t we?” “I want to get married, someday. But not now. When I’m – finished doing my duty, maybe. When there’s someone capable enough to replace me.” “I see. Would you marry me?” “Are you asking me?” “Would you say yes?” “What do you think?” *** Faleron takes a deep breath, and smooths back his hair for the hundredth time. He shouldn’t be nervous. But he is. Kel is due to arrive back from Lord Wyldon’s office any moment now, where they had been discussing the future of New Hope. It has been agreed upon that Kel wasn’t needed anymore, but was to take Wyldon’s place as District Commander after his retirement was officially announced. It wasn’t quite what they had been hoping for. Faleron gets up and paces the room again. But Kel was always the sort of person who can’t say no, and she was the only candidate for the job. When the door opens and Kel walks in, looking weary but satisfied, Faleron forgets everything. This is the woman he loves, and she can’t say no. She seems shocked when she finally notices the little box in his hands, and when he walks toward her and takes her hand in his, slowly lowering himself down onto one knee, the teary smile on her face tells him that he never had any reason to doubt.
