I fumbled through my pockets to find the Blue Feather as my special someone gazed wistfully at the sky. A shooting star rushed across the stars like a racehorse and then it vanished to be replaced by another. Jin then turned to me and smiled charmingly. "Isn't it lovely?" He asked.

I smiled and nodded wholeheartedly as my heart pumped furiously. I could feel the redness of my face increasing. Jin's usually pale cheeks also possessed a shade of scarlet within them. It suited him.

The feather was within my hand and I rubbed it gently, lifting it from my pocket and waiting for the right moment to reveal it to him. I knew I was just putting it off for as long as possible, but my heart was now bashing against my ribcage. Jin's sharp and intelligent dark eyes didn't let go of mine.

Then he took my unoccupied hand.

I was startled for a moment. I had never touched his hand before. It was much larger than mine, but so gentle and careful; as a doctor's hand should be.

"I've been wanting to say something for a while..." he murmured. There seemed to be an emotional storm behind his glasses, inside of his eyes, but his expression looked the same as it was when he first met me - calm.

"Yes?" I replied, my words coming out as a croak.

"I've had so much trouble sleeping, and so much more trouble than that working out why these restless nights were happening..."

"Jin," I whispered breathlessly to try and stop him, but he continued.

"I want to thank you for everything you've done to make me happy, and I am sure of what I'm feeling now that I'm looking at you. I'm very sorry if the next few words are a burden, but... Angela, I just need to say this. I love you."

The world and time itself grounded to an abrupt halt as I gazed back at Jin with my mouth agape. I must have looked silly, because I looked so stunned. Eventually, I closed it. I knew what he was going to say, I did. And yet I was still surprised. "Jin..."

Jin seemed to read my thoughts and feelings as easily as he read those books at the clinic. He leaned forwards, and I didn't attempt to move when he kissed me. Warmth both physical and emotional flooded through my body as I hesitantly returned the kiss. He pulled me into an embrace and I accepted it. If I was blind, I never would have thought it was winter at this very moment in Jin's arms.

That's when I decided that this person needed to be my husband for life. I wanted to be with him forever.

"Jin..." I whispered after we finished the kiss. I melted into him.

"Hm?" He leaned his head on top of mine and took in my scent. I rose a shaky hand and it caught his attention. He noticed the blue feather and for a moment I was convinced that he hadn't because he was silent. Then he spoke.

"Were you really planning to propose to me on this particular night?" He asked. Something about his voice made me realize how surprised he was.

"Yes..." I gave a nervous chuckle - I didn't know if he was going to accept. If I was in his shoes, I'd probably run away. But, this was Jin, and he was an entirely different person.

"You are quite the romantic, aren't you?" He looked at me and from the glint in his eye I could read his answer and I smiled and buried my head into his chest. "I love you."

"I love you too, Angela. I really do want to spend the rest of my life with you."

And then we kissed again.
