The day after Yuki's proposal Shuichi had the biggest smile on his face. He couldn't wait till he told Hiro, or maybe he should tell him after Yuki gets him his ring, which he was going to surprise Shuichi with later that night. Shuichi couldn't stop smiling. He couldn't help but feel like the luckiest man on the earth. Ever since he met Yuki in his sophomore year of high school, his life has done nothing but change for the better. One thing after another, it just kept getting better.

Shuichi walked down the street with a warm feeling inside of him. Shuichi was on his way to work. Shuichi had left early that morning, so when he got to the studio he could tell Hiro and Suguru everything that had happened last night. Shuichi couldn't keep the smile off of his face as he walked through the doors of NG Records. Shuichi skipped to the rehearsal room, and Shuichi's big smile was the first thing Hiro, his best friend, and Suguru, Shuichi's other close friend, they noticed.

"Hey, what's with the big smile?" Hiro asked with a slightly suspicious look on his face, Suguru just looked on with curiosity.

"You guys will never believe what happened last night!" Shuichi practically screamed.

"What? What happened?" Suguru asked.

"YUKI PROPOSED TO ME! WE'RE IN ENGAGE! WE'RE GOING TO BE MARRIED!"

"Wow, Shu, that's great. I'm happy for you, but I better be the best man." Hiro said, laughing at Shuichi's reaction. "Of course you'll be the best man, and Suguru, you'll be in the wedding, too." Suguru just smiled.

"Congratulations, Shuichi." Suguru said. Shuichi had the biggest smile on his face and his two friends were happy for him because ever since Shuichi had been with Yuki he was truly happy, which Shuichi wasn't while he was with Tachi. Tachi had abused Shuichi and tried to control him and Shuichi's life, but then Yuki moved to their school and everything changed after that.

Then the three of them heard Tohma Seguchi's voice from the door.

"Hi everyone, what is this I hear about marriage?"

"Yuki and I are engage! He proposed to me last night!" Shuichi smiled at Tohma. Tohma smiled too and even laughed a little, and Shuichi's jaw nearly dropped to the ground when Tohma said, "Oh did he? Yes, he told me that he was planning that for you. Do you have your ring yet?" Shuichi just stared at Tohma with wide eyes, so were Suguru and Hiro; Tohma looked highly amused by all this.

"Y-you, knew that Yuki was planning to propose to me?"

"Oh yes…he called and told me he was going to propose to you. So, do you have your ring?"

"H-he is suppose to give it to me tonight."

"Right. Well, I came here to tell you that you have sold over thousands of your last CD in the past three weeks. Good job. I'm also here to tell you that you have a week to write five songs for your coming up CD and make sure they are good." Shuichi was so happy at that moment that he didn't even care that he had a week to write 5 good songs, he just smiled really big and yelled, "Yes sir!" and started right away to work on the songs while Hiro practice the songs they already had for their next CD on his guitar, while Suguru did the same on his keyboard. Shuichi sat in his favorite chair and did the thing he always did when he was working on writing on songs…he thought about Yuki.

Three hours later Shuichi had written down one song. One down and four to go he thought. Shuichi sat there for awhile wondering why it was so quiet, but he remembered that everyone had left about an hour ago to get something to eat, and Shuichi had stayed behind because he was doing really good on thinking up the song he had just finished and Shuichi didn't want to forget anything. Shuichi just sat there and rest in his chair, but then a loud grumble disturbed his resting and Shuichi realized he was hungry.

Shuichi stood up and stretched but stopped when he felt like he was being watched. Shuichi quickly turned around and saw that the door to the rehearsal room was slightly opened. I could've sworn the others had closed that door when they were leaving to get lunch. Shuichi just shrugged and decided to just forget about it; there were more important things to think about…like his and Yuki's wedding. Yep, much more important thing to think about. Then there was another grumble from Shuichi's stomach. Shuichi sighed; he might as well go and get something to eat.

Shuichi grabbed his hat and sunglasses and left the studio. Shuichi walked around a while until he saw his favorite restaurant and went inside. It was almost empty and was completely quiet. Shuichi sat down at a table and took off his hat and sunglasses and a familiar waitress came to his table.

"Hello, Mr. Shindou, what will you have?"

"I will like a strawberry daiquiri and pepperoni pizza."

"Would that be all, sir?"

"Could you bring me a some strawberry pocky as I wait for my pizza?"

"Yes, sir. Your drink and strawberry pocky will be here in a minute."

"Thank you." Shuichi smiled at the waitress and she left to get his order. Shuichi didn't have to wait long for his daiquiri and strawberry pocky. Shuichi began to eat his strawberry pocky. Shuichi sat there eating his strawberry pocky, he was about to take a bite of his third one when the bell on the door rang, signaling a new customer. Shuichi sighed and automatically started to reach for his disguise, but the person who came in wasn't a fan. It was worst. It was that janitor from the studio that gave Shuichi the creeps.

Shuichi thought on disguising himself anyways, but the janitor had already noticed him. Shuichi gave the young man, who wasn't no older than 25, a shy smile. The guy was handsome and at first sight he had seemed kind, but he just gave Shuichi the creeps, but he never did bother anyone else, or give anybody else the creeps. Nope, just Shuichi, but he never did tell anyone about the skittish feeling he would have, like now, every time the guy was around, and Shuichi didn't even know the guys name. The man smiled back at Shuichi, but it was that same weird smile he always had when he smiled at Shuichi.

Thankfully the guy didn't sit with Shuichi, but he sat where Shuichi could see him just from the corner of his eye. Shuichi could feel the stares the guy was giving him but he just ignored them and continued to eat his pocky, but they were gone before he knew it. He must have eaten them really fast. Shuichi was just about to take a sip from his strawberry daiquiri, but the waitress came with his pepperoni pizza.

Shuichi quickly ate his pizza and drank his daiquiri. Shuichi stood up, left a five-dollar tip on the table, put his cap and glasses on, and made his way to the cash register. The same waitress from earlier smiled at him and said, "That will be $8.75." (A/n: I don't really know about Japanese money.) Shuichi was about to pay, but the waitress asked,

"Would you like something to go?"

"Um…yeah, another strawberry daiquiri."

"Just a minute." The waitress smiled but then turned and went into the kitchen. Shuichi was alone a few seconds, and each second he felt the janitor's eyes on him. He saw the janitor stand, but he sat back down when the waitress came back out with Shuichi's drink, he felt like he could kiss the waitress, he really didn't want that creepy guy talking to him. The waitress add the price of his to-go drink into the register and then she said,

"That will be $9.50." Shuichi paid and almost ran out of the restaurant.

On his walk back to the studio Shuichi shoved the skittish feeling he had. Today was a day to be happy…not skittish. Shuichi went back to the studio with the same big smile he had that morning, any thoughts of a creepy janitor was gone. Once Shuichi was back in the rehearsal room, he showed K his song. After K approved of the song, Shuichi, Hiro, and Suguru worked on the tunes and how Shuichi should sing the song. Once they figured out the notes and tunes of the song the three of them practiced the song until it was time for them to leave.

Shuichi told everyone bye. He was so happy to get his engagement ring that he couldn't contain himself from running out of the rehearsal room. Shuichi passed by the creepy janitor, whose name he still did not know, but he didn't get any skittish feelings. He was so happy he just ran pass the guy. Once outside of the studio Shuichi began his walk towards his and Yuki's home. Shuichi ran the whole way.

He was so excited he didn't even realized that when he stopped to catch a breath he was right in front of his apartment door. Shuichi took his keys out and walked inside.

"YUKI! I'M HOME!" Shuichi ran straight to Yuki's office where Yuki was sitting in his chair, but he wasn't glued to the lap top working on a book like he normally was, he was facing Shuichi when he walked in.

"Welcome home." Yuki smiled, then stood up and walk towards Shuichi. Shuichi opened his mouth to say something, but Yuki stopped him by setting his finger on Shuichi's lips.

"Close you eyes." Was all he said. Shuichi obeyed. He felt Yuki lift his hand and place something around his wedding finger. Shuichi smiled when he realized that Yuki had just gave him his engagement ring.

"Okay, open them."

Shuichi opened his eyes and gasped when he saw the engagement ring. It was so beautiful. The ring was gold, but along the sides were small dark blue diamonds.

"Do you like it?" Yuki asked after Shuichi's silence. Once Shuichi was able to speak, he whispered, "I-It's beautiful. I love it, Yuki."

"I wanted to give it to you yesterday, but the ring was mail order and they didn't bring me the ring yesterday like they were suppose to, but they brought it by today." Shuichi was silent and he felt tears going down his face. Shuichi lifted his hand to wipe them away, but then Yuki took Shuichi's face in his hands and kissed the tears away, then once he was at Shuichi's lips he said, "I love you, Shuichi." Then kissed Shuichi passionately. Shuichi kissed him back and when Yuki broke the kiss he looked down at Shuichi, who was still silent. "You know, it's not like you to be quiet. Did I do something wrong?" then Shuichi smiled and flung himself at Yuki, "OH, YUKI, I LOVE YOU!"
