"What?" Baillie asked, his face full of anticipation.
"Just put me down first."
Baillie carefully let go of his hold, letting Paige stand on her own two feet.
Paige directed him to the couch. Then she fetched a blindfold from somewhere and put it on Baillie's eyes. "Just sit here, don't move; I'll be right back."
"Okay~"
Baillie obediently agreed. Then he heard the sound of Paige running around upstairs.
A few minutes later, Paige came rushing back down, standing in front of him.
"Baillie, I'm back." Paige whispered softly.
Baillie felt as if someone was gently brushing a feather across his heart.
"Mm," he replied. His heart was racing for no apparent reason.
Seconds later, Paige's soft hand gently held his left hand. Then he felt a cold touch lightly slip onto his ring finger.
It was a ring.
The good-boy image of Baillie disappeared instantly. He quickly removed the blindfold. Paige was looking up; their eyes met.
"A ring..." Paige pointed to his ring finger.
The ring was a simple band, but its meticulous polish made it very beautiful. It was clear that whoever made it had put a lot of thought into it.
"Where did you get this?" Baillie asked.
"I made it... Don't you like it? I knew it... I should have just bought one." With that, Paige tried to take the ring off his finger.
