A/N: Even though I haven't been watching TNA a lot lately, I still ship these two haha. This was slightly inspired by corneroffandom's story "Goals", with Ethan and Spud's part. (this probably sucks anyways) Enjoy!

It was New Year's Eve, and New York was bright and popping with color. At least that's what it looked like from the TV screen. With a sigh, Spud got off the comfy couch, and went to get something to drink from the refrigerator.

He was currently Ethan's house in Tampa, Florida. Why you ask? Ethan literally dragged him to his house, and told him to wait there until he came back. He hadn't had told Spud what he was doing, and it was slowly killing the shorter man. Although he loved Ethan, most of the time he didn't know what to expect from him. He wondered what he had up his sleeve this time...

It was almost 2 minutes to midnight, almost the beginning of 2017. And Ethan still wasn't there.

"This may be the most dreadful New Year's Eve I've ever had..." Spud groaned, putting his hands on his face.

"Then can I make it better, tiger?" Ethan's voice filled the room, making Spud look up with surprise.

"There you are! Where were you? You had me bloody worried, Ethan." Spud walked over to Ethan, his eyes filled with concern and confusion.

"I know, I'm sorry. But I need you to come outside for a second." Ethan responded, going out the front door.

Spud sighed and followed him. When he got outside, his eyes widened as he saw candles set up in a heart shape, and rose petals that spelled, "I love you."

He then felt a light tap on his shoulder, and turned around. He saw Ethan on one knee, holding a diamond ring in his hand.

"Even though it's only been 5 months since we started our relationship, I've realized that the one person I want by my side is you. I love you with all my heart. So, James Curtin," He paused, saying Spud's real name. "would you make me the happiest man on the planet and become my husband?"

"Oh Ethan.. Yes! Yes, I will!" Spud responded, an emotional mess. He could see Ethan tearing up as he slipped the ring on Spud's finger and kissed him. He kissed back as fireworks went off in the background, signaling that 2017 had entered in.

Spud was wrong, this was the best New Year's Eve he's ever had. And he'll never forget it.
