I need advice on indentation and dialogue. Can someone please tell me where I need indentations and where I do not? I was wondering, since my quote continues on to the next line, do I need to indent the next line, as well? And beginning with "my heart lurched" would I need to begin a new paragraph there? Thanks so much!

“I have been asking myself questions,” he went on, “Why? How? And there’s really only one more question left to ask, and it is to be asked of you.” My heart lurched. My face felt immediately hot and I could feel my body vibrating. I could not control it. It became immensely intensified as he grasped onto the railing and clumsily fell to one knee. I gasped, throwing my hand to my mouth. I could feel my eyes begin to water and I had completely forgotten there were still people around me. He later told me that a woman, who I had noticed earlier in the evening was not a seasoned skater, came up behind him and exclaimed, “Watch out! I’m sorry if I run into you.” I didn’t notice.

I need to use MLA format, if that helps.
