Anne giggled, laughing harder still when he pulled her towards his car without relenting.

"Sweetie? I know you don't like being in the dark, but we are taking this limo no matter..."

She trailed off, spotting a flash of color in the car as he opened the door just ahead of her. Frowning curiously, she stooped to peek inside, gaping when she saw the dazzling bouquet of orchids, a box of chocolates, and an enormous stuffed wolf that melted her heart.

"Oh...oh my." she breathed, reaching in to pick up the stuffed animal. Clutching it to her chest, she emerged from the car, face alight with pure joy as she faced him, then moved to fling herself at him in a hug. Giggling, she held the wolf in one hand while she held her wolf tightly, hardly believing what she was seeing.

"Eeeee! Ashley S..." She paused, drawing back just enough to make sure the limo driver was still in the car before whispering in his ear.

"Ashley Savery, you are the sweetest man alive, and I love you!" she sighed, kissing him emphatically. "I love you, I love you...I love you!!"
