Abi and Dan:
I woke early on this particular valentine's day. Dan had just got back from a week away with work and after a night of passionate sex, and not a lot of sleep, we were lay curled into each other. I sighed softly and rolled over to face my boyfriend. He smiled and kissed my forehead.
"Good morning." He said, softly, tucking a piece of hair behind my head.
"Morning." I smiled back, "I'm so glad your home!"
"Hmm, I'm glad to be home." He smiled coyly, "Last night reminded me what I was missing!"
I blushed, but smiled. "Well, I just wanted to show you how much I loved you."
"Hmm, you did much more than that…" he laughed softly, rubbing his hand up and down my side.
"I do love you, Daniel Holmes."
"And I love you Abigail McNeish." He sat up suddenly, "I got you something."
I sat up too, bringing the sheets up to my chest. Dan ran across the room (stark naked I might add) and brought over a little bag.
"I thought you were on a top secret MI5 mission to defend the security of Great Britain?" I asked, smiling slightly.
"Well, that mission included shopping for my girlfriend too!" he said handing me the bag. It was red with pink tissue paper inside. A single rose was poking out the top. I sniffed it softly as I pulled it out. Under the tissue paper was a little box. I opened it slowly and gasped.
Inside the box was a ring that had the infinity symbol on it. I took it out the box and looked at the inside. Engraved around the rim were the words, "Abigail and Dan- together since September 09 2011." I looked up at Dan. He smiled.
"It's not an engagement ring, if that's what you're thinking!" he laughed softly. "I'm never going to find anyone that I love as much as I love you and I want you to have this ring as a promise that I will never leave you, never hurt you. I want you to be mine and one day, when we are both ready, I will marry you. But until then, just know that I will spend every day with you, loving you, protecting you, caring for you."
I smiled at him unable to speak.
"Abigail McNeish, will you be my valentine?" he asked, sloppy grin on his face.
I nodded, smiling widely. He took the ring out of my hand and put it on my middle finger. I then kissed him, softly. He returned the kiss, pinning me back down on the bed.
