Marriage!? Who Said Anything about getting married!?

Keith arrived home from work today with an issue...

Keith - "We have a bit of a problem"
Mandy - "Am I going to cry?"
Keith - "I hope not"
Mandy - "Oh God"
Keith - "Well, there's an issue with your Visa application, it isn't going to be approved"
Mandy - "Okay" (with look of confusion and uneasiness on face)
Keith - "So, we have three options. One we don't take the posting, which is really not an option. Second, you apply for a Visa on your own and meet me in a few months. Third, we get married."
Mandy - (Gulp) "Ummmmm" (I really was at a loss for words at this point)

I had so many thoughts and emotions running through my head at this point that my mind was blank. No words were spoken, I just stared at Keith waiting for him to say something. We had quite a lenghty conversation (obviously) and by the time we went to bed we were laughing that we may have to get married. Laughing, because really there's no way we're gonna have to get married in a few days! This was not how we pictured it. This is not how we wanted it to be. We wanted the say, we wanted to plan it, we wanted a party, but that was all about to unravel...
