River was amused by Averi's huffing tone. After laughing, he became serious and straightened his body, as well as Averi's, so that they were facing each other.
River said, "Alright then, I'll give you a choice. Do you want to be with me or not?"
Averi asked, "Which kind of being together are you talking about?"
River narrowed his eyes and suddenly burst out laughing. He said, "How about we get married right now?"
This really scared Averi. No matter how she thought about it, she never expected River to be so direct. It was one thing to be together but getting married was too impulsive.
Without waiting for Averi's answer, River chuckled and said, "What? Are you scared?"
Averi replied, "..."
She knew that the last thing she should do at this moment was to let River provoke her. However, she couldn't help herself and raised her chin directly saying, "Who do you think I am? What am I scared of?"
"Okay then let's go." River lightly pulled the corner of his mouth and didn't give Averi a chance to back down. He had already stood up from the sofa.
He pulled Averi up and asked, "Where is your document? Do you need me to help you find it?"
Averi remained silent.
River let go of her hand and Averi turned to walk towards the bedroom. In just a minute, she came back with the needed document in hand.
She waved it in front of River and said, "I don't need your help."
River's smile deepened in his eyes. He felt a little helpless but he wasn't going to change his mind. Since he had already expressed his feelings for Averi, getting married was only a matter of time.
He didn't think that anything would change now that he knew he liked Averi. Since there wouldn't be any changes, the process didn't really matter either. They were just moving faster than others towards the same goal.
