I blinked, not sure if I’d heard their words properly. “I’m sorry, what did you say?” I gasped.
“We said, will you marry us?” They repeated.
It didn’t sound any less unreal than the last time. I couldn’t get a word out. I just stared at them in shock.
“Hazel, are you okay?” Liam asked, eyeing my face worriedly.
I realized that I’d actually stopped breathing and my face was turning blue. A few more seconds and I would have passed out. Taking a deep breath, I shook my head. “This can’t be real. I’m having a dream,” I muttered.
“It is very real,” Lucas said.
I shook my head. “Nope. I’m just having a stupid dream.” I sighed. “I should have known this was too good to be true. First, an island in my name, and now a proposal?” I chuckled. “What a wild dream you’re having, Hazel.”
Their brows furrowed in concern. I was starting to sound like a crazy woman. I didn’t care. They were the ones who were crazy. This dream was the one that was crazy.
“All you have to do is pinch yourself, Hazel,” I muttered to myself. “Once you pinch yourself, you’ll wake up!”
Lucas dived towards me, determined to stop me from hurting myself but it was too late. I grabbed my skin between my fingers and gave it a firm tug.
