I Love You, Comrade!

"You're mad," Lissa observed as I paced back and forth in her room in royal housing.
"Of course I'm mad! It's Valentine's Day and not a single word about it from Dimitri! And it's our first one too!" I exclaimed, frustrated and ran a hand through my hair.
"Maybe he has something big planned and wanted to throw you off," she suggested.
"Always so logical," I mumbled, "I wanna be pissed at him." I crossed my arms over my chest definatly.
"Rose. He loves you, I'm sure he knows what day it is. But doesn't he show you how much he loves you everyday?" Lissa reasoned.
"He does, but a 'Happy Valentine's Day, Roza' would be nice," I said in a pour imitation of his voice. Liss rubbed my arm and smiled sadly at me. My phone beeped with a text. I sighed and flipped it open.
Come home. We need to talk about something. -D
I texted back, On my way. -R
"It's Dimitri. He wants me to come home. Says we gotta talk. Love ya, Liss," I gave her a hug and turned to leave.
"Bye, Rose. Love ya more," she called behind me. I walked back to the apartment Dimitri and I share and let myself in. I turned the lights on and set my keys on the table by the door. The was a single red rose laying there. I picked it up and smiled to myself. There was a trail of rose petals leading to the kitchen. I followed it. When I got to the kitchen, I gasped.
There were candles everywhere along with more rose petals. It also smelled amazing. Dimitri was standing by the table holding a bouqet of roses. Tears filled my eyes. Everything was absolutly perfect.
"Dimitri," I whispered. He came over to me, handed me the roses and wrapped his arms around me.
"Happy Valentine's Day, Roza," he whispered in my ear.
"Happy Valentine's Day, Dimitri," I responded softly. He took my hand and lead me to the table. He pulled my chair out for me and served me a romantic dinner. After we ate, he took my hand again and led me into the living room. I sat on the couch. Dimitri walked into the next room.
"Where are you going?" I called after him. He just smirked at me over his shoulder and kept walking. I sighed. He came back in the room two minutes later holding something behind his back. I gave him a questioning look. He pulled the cutest little shih zhu from behind his back. She had a light purple bow tied around her neck.
"Happy Valentine's Day," Dimitri said, grinning at me. He handed me the puppy and she started licking my face. I giggled.
"What's her name?" I asked with a huge smile on my face.
"You tell me." I stared into her eyes for a while and then it hit me.
"Demi," I grinned, "I have something for you too." I went over to my purse by the door and fished out the carefully wrapped gift. I handed to him and he opened it. It was a silver stake. But it was special. I had I love you, Comrade. I'll always be your Roza. ingraved around the hilt.
"This is amazing, Roza," Dimitri told me and kissed me hard.
"I'm glad you like it," I went to kiss him again but he stopped me. I pouted. He chuckled at me.
"Just wait, my love. There's more," he grinned. Then he got down on one knee in front of my seat. He held my left hand. Tears filled my eyes once again, "Rosemarie Lillian Hathaway, I love you more than anything else in the world. When I'm away from you for more than an hour I miss you. I pray for you, more than I pray for myself. Will you do me the great honor of becoming my wife? Will you marry me?"
"Of course I'll marry you! I love you so much, Comrade!" I set Demi on the couch and jumped into Dimitri's arms. He slid a ring on my finger. It was gorgeous. It had a large saffire in the middle with two small diamounds on each side. The band was white-gold. "It's gorgeous."
"No. You're gorgeous," he said. And then, well, let's just say, he showed me how much he loved me. All night. In the middle of the living room. With out new puppy fast asleep on the couch.
Review and let me know what you think! I picked Demi for the puppy because Demitria is the female form of Dimitri and Demi is short for it...Who knows where Dimitri's proposal speech is from? I do but I'm not telling! ;P
