The Proposal
Chloe P.O.V
I sat on my bed staring into my closet wondering what on earth I was going to do. Tonight Derek is taking me on a date to a fancy place called the Ristorante Lombardo. After we defeated the EG we moved to a secluded part of Buffalo. Our house is right by the woods which are perfect for Derek's weekly changes. But Tori, Simon and Kit share a house right next to ours.
So I am sitting on my bed thinking what the heck I should do when my phone rings. As soon as I answer Tori shouts down the phone.
"I'm coming over, I can't stand to watch you sit there and end up wearing jeans and a hoodie like last time! "
It's true, last time Derek took me on a date I panicked and flung on a pair of jeans and my hoodie with a ghost on the front. Simon got it me last Christmas thinking it was funny, but it's quite comfy actually.
Not 2 minutes later, Tori turns up with what looks like her whole closet. Muttering under her breath about 'what I would do without her' she looks through one of many bags and pulls out a gorgeous red cocktail dress with a lace bust, then a pair of silver stilettos along with a silver clutch.
I say the only word that I can think of "WOW".
"I know, wolf boy will be drooling all night." Tori stated matter of factly.
Two hours later I was finished. With my dress, shoes, bag and the minimal makeup Tori put on me.
Derek P.O.V
I was carted off to Simon's house because Tori was at mine 'prettying up Chloe' her words, not mine. I was wearing a simple black suit, white shirt and a red tie. I was so nervous for this date because I needed to ask Chloe something. Something important. After a call from Tori telling me that Chloe was ready, I got in the car but not before slipping a velvet box in my pocket.
At the restaurant Chloe P.O.V
As we parked the car I looked at the Ristorante Lombardo and gasped, it was beautiful. Derek came up behind me and said
"Not as beautiful as you."
Huh? Did I say that out loud?
"Yes you did but let's go inside."
We ordered our food, me getting chicken pesto pasta and Derek getting a whole pizza.
When we have finished eating, Derek got down on one knee and said "Chloe I love you so much and I couldn't imagine life without you, so Chloe, will you marry me?"
For about a minute I just stood there and then I shouted "YES! OF COURSE DEREK!"
After we paid we got in the car and drove straight to Tori's house and told them the good news.
"Guys, we've got something to tell you."
"Oh my god, you're pregnant! I'm going to be the best aunt ever!"
"No Tori, Derek just proposed!"
"Good on you bro, I'm so proud, ooh, can I be the best man?!"
Over all the excitement of Tori mumbling wedding decisions like 'the flowers can be lilac, and we could have it outside, and we can get Chloe to invite Liz' and Simon scalding Derek for how long it took him, Kit came over to Chloe and congratulated her.
2 hours later
Chloe and I were snuggling in bed and before long, her heartbeat slowed and her breathing evened out. She was asleep. And before long I was too.
