Chapter 1: The Proposal
In Who U, Dr. LaRue has been seeing a guy called Corey Ferguson. While she was off duty, she ran into Corey, green and brown fur, 25 years old, hazel-blue eyes, a little taller, silver hair, and wears a rainbow short-sleeved shirt and light-blue jeans. She felt a little lovestruck when she stared at him. Corey said, "You wanna go out on a date with me?"
LaRue smiled and said, "Sure, why not? I'm free tonight."
"Pick you up at 7:00?" he asked.
"Sure, why not. I'm at Apartment 23B." LaRue said.
"All right. I've got something special to ask you, but I wanna save it at our date, so I'll see you tonight." said Corey.
"Okay, then." said LaRue.
LaRue was ecstatic and looked forward to the date with Corey. A few hours later, she got ready for her date. She wore a red-velvet short-sleeved shirt and a green long-skirt. She put on her make-up on her eyes, put on lipstick and made herself look pretty. At 6:45 pm, she got a knock on the door, she answered and it was Corey. He was wearing a dark-green tuxedo and a black vest and light kahkis. Corey chuckled and said, "You look very pretty."
LaRue giggled and said, "Thank you. You look cute, too."
"Thanks. I've booked a reservation at Who-live Garden at 7:00. Don't wanna be late." said Corey.
LaRue gasped in shock and said, "Who-live Garden? That's completely expensive!"
"Don't worry. We're gonna have a great time." said Corey.
"Well, I guess so."
The two got in the restaurant and Corey said, "Table for Ferguson and LaRue?"
The host looked at the dining reservation book and said, "Ah, yes. Ferguson and LaRue. Right this way, please."
The host walked to the room and Corey and LaRue followed until they found a table that has candles and near the fountain. LaRue gasped and said, "This is very romantic."
They sat down and looked at the menu and LaRue saw something she might like to try. She said, "I think I might try the Chicken Who-fredo."
"Great. And I'll take the Fettucini Who-fredo." Corey said.
After they ate, LaRue felt kinda relaxed and comfortable about the service. She asked, "So, what was the surprise?"
Corey breathed deeply and said, "We've been seeing each other for 8 months and we've been knowing each other for so long. You're the most important woman in my life and I like girls who are extremely scientific. And I hope I wanna spend the rest of my life with you."
LaRue looked surprised and said, "Corey... I don't know what to say."
"What I'm trying to say is--" he began, then put out a jewelry box and opens a 21-karat wedding ring. He got up, put one knee down, grabbed LaRue's hand and said, "Dr. Mellissa Amber LaRue, I lvoe you and I wanna spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?"
LaRue felt a little emotional and with tears of happiness, she said, "Oh, Corey. You're so sweet. Yes, I'll marry you."
The guests were clapping and feeling happy for them. LaRue got into Corey's arms and kissed him. They kissed each other and it was LaRue's most memorable proposal she ever had.
