A/N: Here's how this is going to work. I plan to post a new drabble each week, with every chapter and prompt coinciding with a different Christmas and/or winter-related song.
Believe in what your heart is saying
Hear the melody that's playing
There's no time to waste
There's so much to celebrate
Chilled air following behind them – proof of Christmas on its way – Jack drapes his coat over her gently. She breathes in deeply, flush with his scent, as they continue down the pier, dark waters below catching rays of moonlight.
Soon they fall silent, noticing, for the first time, the ocean's beauty rather than its danger. Focused entirely on the view, she doesn't see the velvet box drawn from his pocket.
He's on his knees before realization hits. Will you marry me? Her lips forming words she cannot utter aloud. Again.
His look of pure confidence finally convinces her it's right. They won't fall apart this time (he promises).
