Scott opened the door to Jean's room, gingerly he walked in and gazed upon her sleeping form.
She looks so peaceful, ...I love her so much Scott as he watched her.
Flashback
I remember thinking this is it, the day, the day I'd been looking forward to, yet dreading at the same time.
"Okay Scott the glasses are on open your eyes" Jean said excitedly
"Are you sure there safe, I don't want to hurt you" Scott said warily
'I know you'd never hurt me Scott, I trust you' Jean thought to him
"Now open them" Jean said, seemingly more eager than Scott
Then, I slowly opened my eyes still worried that my eyes would once again kill the ones I love
"Scott? Do they work? Can you see me?" Jean asked getting impatient
"Jean, you're the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in my entire life!" Scott said astonished at Jean's beauty, even though she had a red tint, due to the ruby quartz
"You're just saying that, because I'm the first thing you've seen in 5 years" Jean said blushing, but enjoying the compliment
End Flashback
Jean if I'd have spoken up and told you my feelings, the feelings that I have had every since I head your voice, the first day at the Institute, before I could even see. All the years I had longed for you, longed to be able too hold you, wouldn't have been wasted. My wish would have been granted a lot sooner
I couldn't believe it after the fact, but I started singing softly into Jean's ear, the words that came straight from my heart, I knew Jean liked my singing voice because she told me she heard it while I was in the shower but I never would have guessed that I would be singing to her at the time, as I sang I remember thinking, hoping, praying that she wouldn't wake up
"I don' wanna close my eyes, I don' wanna fall asleep cuz' I'd miss you baby and I don' wanna miss a thing, cuz' even when I dream of you the sweetest dream would never do cuz' I'd miss you babe and I don't wanna miss a thing.."
And as I sang those last words she slowly woke up
"G'Morning Scott, should I get used to waking up with you singing to me?" Jean spoke a little groggily
"Jean, I need you to do me a favor" Scott said, as he felt his palms begin to sweat from the nervousness
"Alright " Jean said as she sat up, swinging her legs over the side of the bed
I remember sweating bullets and as she sat up I knelt at the side of the bed...
"Jean, from the moment I first heard your voice I knew, I knew that I wanted to wake up next to you every morning, I knew that I wanted to be able to tell you I love you whenever I pleased, I knew that you were the one for me, ... Jean will you marry me?"
Then I pulled the case out of my pocket and opened it, I had picked the ring up a few weeks ago, I was just waiting for the moment, it was a great ring it was silver with one medium sized diamond in the middle and 3 little ones on each side of it.
"Scott, it's beautiful" Jean said, pleasantly surprised, they had talked about marriage, but she wasn't expecting a proposal so soon
"So what do you say?" Scott said, getting more nervous by the second
"Do you even need to ask, Scott when we started going out, the first time we told each other that we loved each other, when you said you loved me before you saw me I knew what kind of guy you were, and are, I love you and of course I'll marry you." Jean said smiling at the man she loved
"Jean, you've just made me the happiest man in the world" Scott said, feeling all the nervousness rush off of him, as he bent over to kiss his fiance
So that's how it happened, and I've never regretted it since, in my heart of hearts I hope everyone finds some one to love as much as I love Jean.
