Shane stands up and meets me halfway with his arms wide open. I run into them and wrap my legs around him as he spins me around and the crowd cheers.
“I’m so proud of you,” he whispers in my ear.
“I’m proud of us,” I whisper back. “I love you, Shane.”
“I love you too,” he whispers as he holds me tighter than ever. “And I always will.”
I close my eyes and smile as I feel his love engulf me, the crowd cheering all around us.
Life doesn’t get better than this.
