Nicholas's POV
"Today's the day every things perfectly set up and its been so peaceful the last few months." He thought as he hiked back to the house to pick up Lucy. They had been together for almost 5 years (if you dont count the time where they had been to stubborn to admit their feelings) and Nicholas was ready to finally ask the two big questions. He had set up the perfect picnic on a moonlight hill hidden by forest. He grinned and sped home to meet Lucy before she got there.
Lucy's POV
Nicholas said he had had a surprise for her. He made her promise to come tonight. Butterfly's flew in her stomach make her heart pound and her palms damp. She pulled in the Drakes drive and looked herself over in the mirror. Suddenly their was a tap on her window that made her jump and squeal. It was thoroughly embarrassing especially since she had been trained to be a hunter.
Nicholas stood grinning like an idiot as she fumbled to open the door. It apparently took to long for his taste as he grabbed the door handle and jerked it molded her to his body hugging her like she was his source of oxygen and he was drowning."I have something i cant wait for you to see" he whispered in her ear as he scooped her legs into his arms holding her like a new wife being carried across the new homes ground. He had only been this possessive a few times in their relationship so his vigor made her nervous and excited at the same time.
The butterfly's in her stomach seemed to turn into hornets as Nicholas ran through the woods. "Nicky where are we going?" she laughed as tree appeared and vanished in blurs. Her arms were wrapped around his neck so tightly that if he had still been a human he would most like have passed out by now. "Its a surprise" he said as he held her tighter. Soon they came to a beautiful hill where the trees were wrapped with dim lights illuminating a picnic that had every single food Lucy had ever said she had liked on their breathe came out wispy as she looked around at the field that Nicholas had turned into a montage of their entire relationship. She lightly slid to the ground as Nicholas set her on the ground. He seemed nervous as he rung his hands absently trying to judge her reaction. Suddenly she grabbed the tie he was wearing and kissed him beyond a point of reasonable thought.
"I take it you like it... Lucky" he said putting extra emphasis on her real name that she hated. Usually she would have hit him but instead she tugged him back down into another they broke away she panted"I don't like it one bit..." His face fell a little disappointed."I love it Nicky" smirking as she said her nickname for him. His face reignited with his contagious energy as he ushered her to their picnic.
They laughed and talked as Lucy nibbled on everything. She was thinking of talking Nicholas into sharing an ice cream sundae like they did on their third date when Nicholas got on one knee in front of her. She was so shocked that her eyes went wide and started to mist. "Lucky Hamilton will you please make me the luckiest man of eternity. I've loved you since before I think I even knew what love was and I know that I will never stop no matter what happens. Knowing this will you please become my partner for as long as fate allows. Will you marry me and become a vampire?"
