Well, you decided today was the day, you decided to tell Miss Frieren how you felt, but how? You didn't want it to seem weird, but you also didn't want it to seem barebones, so you decided to use some of your gold to buy her a necklace, with a small ruby on it, you paid a good amount for it, so you packed it up and put it in your pocket, and went on your way to her.

"Mhm..."

She was reading her spell book, as always, what's new? You coughed a bit to get her attention, she turned around to face you

"Oh, hey, need something?"

You told her that you wanted to talk to her in private, and she nodded and got up to follow you, she was weirded out but figured out that maybe you just wanted to talk to her about something way too important to talk in front of the others.

You cleared your throat to talk, let it all out when you 2 got to a private spot, poured your heart out, pulled the ring out, and felt your heart shrink as she looked... confused? conflicted? it was hard to tell, she opened her mouth to talk

"I... I don't know about this, I don't see the point, I Will out live you, so why would you even consider this? Is foolish at best"

Tho she sounded harsh, she was deeply only trying to protect herself and her feelings, she didn't want to get attached to you only to lose you, only to see you wither away and die.
