Adam was sitting on the couch watching TV when Jess walked in the front door. They had been dating long enough that they decided they should exchange keys, and that it wasn't really necessary to knock. They were comfortable with each other and knew each other.
After shutting the door behind her, Jess quickly strode across the room and straddled Adam's lap, kissing him deeply. "What's your deepest desire?" she asked after taking a breath.
Sometimes they still surprised each other though, and Adam loved that. He swallowed hard and looked her in the eyes. "Hi Jessie."
"Hi," she grinned. "What's your deepest desire?" she repeated.
He slipped his thumbs under the edge of her shirt as he pretended to think for a moment. "I think this is definitely pretty close," he smiled.
She rolled her eyes and sighed. "Come on, Ross. I am offering you the opportunity of a lifetime here. You can ask me anything in the world. And tonight, it's all yours."
Feeling his heart skip a beat, Adam kissed the woman he loved then leaned back, taking off the necklace that was tucked in his shirt. When he pulled the ring off the chain, Jess scrunched her brow in confusion. He held the plain ring out in the palm of his hand and took a deep breath. "Jessie, my deepest desire is you. I um, I wasn't going to do this until next week when the real ring came in but, …will you marry me?" He held out the ring from his necklace again, eyes wide with hope.
It took her less than a second to respond, leaning forward to kiss him again, whispering a soft 'yes' against his lips.
