I met Zach six years ago when he went to prom with my cousin. We ended up dating for about three months till I went away to college. He finished his senior year in high school and we ended up at the same college where he stayed for six months until going to Florida. His dream was to play football for The University of Florida. We didn’t talk to each other for 4 years. We finally got the nerve to talk to each other on January 17th 2006. We talked everyday till he came home. He put aside his dream to move back home to be with me in the Winter of 2006. This past December he took me to Disney World for our anniversary. On December 17th we stood in from of Cinderella’s Castle taking pictures of the fireworks behind the castle. The fireworks started to go off & I was trying to concentrate and get a good picture when Zach asked me if he could ask me a question. I snapped back at him, “What?†Right then two fireworks shot up from the sides and met at the top. Right as they met the song “When you wish upon a star†was playing and he wrapped his arms around me and asked “Will you marry me?â€Â We had to sit down because his legs were shaking. I sat on the ground crying and smiling at the same time. Two minutes later he said “So is that a yes?
