"This is a, uh, friendship ring right?â€ â€œYeah, donâ€™t worry. If I propose, youâ€™ll know it. For one thing, Iâ€™ll be hyperventilating.â€ A sly smileâ€”surprisingly sexyâ€”turned up his lips. â€œAnd itâ€™ll be a ruby.â€ â€œRubies? No diamonds? Too expensive for the old writerâ€™s salary, huh?â€ He made a disparaging grunt at that. â€œNo, I just think diamonds are common, thatâ€™s all. If I get married, itâ€™ll be because something uncommon is occurring. Besides, you wear a lot of red, right? I know how important it is for your accessories to match."
