"All he ever talks about is you and life, it bores me to death!" Westley chided as he leaned against the wall. "But lately he has been talking about blind horses."

Vivian giggled softly, her cheeks turning a slight pink. "He talks about me, hm? This is news." She smirked teasingly at Jack, then looked at Westley. "Hmm, yes. Blind horses are very special creatures. More useful than one that is lame, though." She gestured to his crutches, her voice light and teasing and a smile on her face.

He smiled "Well, im would probably been a very handsome lame horse if i do say so myself. I wouldn't be able to do anything but, i could still show off my coat." Jack shook his head "You two are awful." he joked. He was slightly red in the cheeks as well at Westley's comment of jacks conversations.

Vivian laughed lightly and then smiled at Jack. "Oh come now, we're not that bad." She smiled warmly and looked between the two. She was glad Jack had someone so lively to help him stay cheerful. "So tell me, Mr. Westley." she said with a smirk, "Just what does Jack say about me?"

Westley looked at Jack and then to Vivian "Jack says many wonderful things about you ma'm, but one thing he told me recently was kind of heart breaking to hear. Especially the fact that he wont ask you and see for your opinion." Jack looked at Westley "Wes!" Westley went over to Vivian and leaned to her ear "Jack, was going to ask for your hand in marriage... but he didn't think you would want to marry a man so close to death....." He backed up and bit his lip. He glanced to jack, who looked slightly angry. Westley would slowly leave. Jack looked solemnly to the floor, not making eye contact.

((AAAAAAA!!! I am SO SO SO SO SO sorry!! Somehow this completely got lost in my notifications. I'm soo, so sorry!))

Vivian grew quite curious. "What do you mean?" When Wes came over and whispered in her ear, her face flushed pink. She waited for a moment, letting Westley leave, then she walked over and took his hands. "Ask me yourself, Jack." she murmured softly. "I wish to hear it from you." She looked him in the eyes, waiting for him to respond, or do as she asked.

(Its fine, but i almost you ditched me there)

He didnt look to her eyes "Vivian i think you deserve a man with forty or more years to fill, not just two." Ending his scentence, squeezing her hands gently and would then look up at her.

(No, I didn't. >.< I totally lost track of it. I was just thinking 'gee, it's been a while since he's posted'. And then I checked and realized I didn't post. Dx I feel soooo bad.)

Vivian leaned in and kissed him gently upon the lips. "Perhaps. But perhaps that is not what I want, Jack." She brushed her fingers along his cheek. "Jack...I want to be with you for as long as you are here on this earth. I truly do."

"If i marry you, i'd have to get your father's permission. Its the law." He smiled a bit when she stroked his cheek. "But i do want to ask for your hand in marriage Vivian."

Vivian smiled softly. "I'm sure he'll be alright with it." She pressed her forehead gently against his, closing her eyes. "Once you have his permission, then you may certainly have my hand in marriage. I would like nothing more than to be your wife." She knew she would be, even for a short amount of time, the happiest woman in the world.

He smiled taking her hands into his and then kissed her gently. "Im glad you feel that way Vivian, i really do." For awhile he talked to her about the perfect wedding, only with him and her... well the priest too of course. But he didnt want anything to big and festive, he was a simple guy when it came to celebrations.

(My internet ate my post )

Vivian was more than happy to sit and talk with him about their wedding. She was so excited to be marrying him, and she didn't mind a simple wedding. She did, however, suggest that Westley and her parents come, so that they could share their special day with people close to them. She still couldn't quite believe she was getting married. It made her so very happy.

"Well, I suppose we should go tell Westley that his big mouth did something right for once." she said, giggling softly.

"What does his big mouth not, do." He smirked and stood up. "I never asked if you were hungry or not. Maybe i could take you out for dinner?"

Vivian giggled softly and then smiled at him, standing as well. "I think dinner sounds wonderful, Jack." She pressed a kiss against his lips and then would take his hand. She was so very happy.

"Hmmm, where should we go? Perhaps the Blue Royal?" The Blue Royal was a fancy resturant and quite expensive. But Jack felt that it was only necessary that they go, especially after a wonderful discussion like they had.

Vivian blushed as he spoke of where to go. "Are you sure? We don't need to go somewhere so fancy, Jack." She didn't want him needlessly spending money. She brushed her fingers along his cheek and kissed him gently. "You don't need to impress me. You already have me as your fiance." She smiled at him. "But...if it is where you want to go, then I don't mind."

"Yes I'm sure." He smiled and kissed her gently. "Let me grab my coat and hat." He turned and walked to a coat rack and took his things.

Vivian chuckled softly and smiled. She kissed him back and let him go fetch his coat and hat. Once he came back, she took his hand and let him lead her out to the car. "I have a feeling you're going to spoil me, Jack." she teased, giggling softly.

"Well, why shouldn't I?" He smiled and opened the car door for her. After she got in he would go around and get into the driver's seat, starting the car.

Vivian laughed softly. "Because I don't need spoiled." She took his hand for a moment and kissed it gently, smiling at him. "I just need you." And she was happy to have him, even if it was for only a little while.
