He's not nervous. Not at all. Okay, maybe just a little bit he is. It's not every day that Barry Allen gets to purpose to the man that he loves. He got the rings, plain gold rings with leaves inscribed into them and quote placed inside the rings. Barry has a feeling that this will work. He just needs to make sure to do the proposal right. This needs to be romantic, not cheesy. And he needs to not be late to the dinner that Leonard made reservations for. This dinner was going to be at a very upscale Italian restaurant and he knows that Len made these reservations to celebrate something important to them.
He made sure to get to the Italian restaurant and let the manager know that he needed to place the rings on top of the white roses bouquet that he provided for the restaurant. He made sure to get these particular roses because that's what Len likes and he wanted to make this night extremely special and romantic. He makes sure to put the rings back in his pockets. He told the manager he wanted them to distract Len away from the flowers later tonight when he'll propose to him.
He placed the rings firmly in his pocket, and he left to go to his job. This night will be romantic, because always in his dreams he always imagined and pictured the way he would ask someone (boy or girl) to marry him. It would be in place where the live music will help distract the person, and he'll get down to his knees and tell that person that he wants to marry him and hold out the rings. When he was younger, that person was Iris, but he knows that he wants to marry Leonard Snart. If only, he wasn't so nervous for proposing later tonight.
Leonard Snart made sure to dress his favorite blue-parka that Barry seems so fond of seeing him for tonight's dinner. He made sure to bring his surprise for Barry. Two rings, one with sapphire in the center of the ring and another with a yellow diamond in the center of the ring. He couldn't wait to purpose to Barry later tonight. Of course, he wasn't nervous; he was cool calm and collective.
Later on that night, they ended up going back home wearing both rings that they bought each other for the proposal and they were ready to embark in their lives as being husbands to each other, but that would be a story for another time.
