Stella woke up on Monday morning still tired, feeling sick, and a sudden craving for Ice Cream. A "Mwumph" came from the other side of the bed as the man init rolled too far and had fallen off. Stella resisted laughing. And failed dismally, and ended up running off. She heaved into the kitchen sink. Mac and Stella had been 'sleeping together' for just under two months. And been dating for long enough after they realised their feelings for each other. But it didn't neccicerially mean that they were 'sleeping.'
"Stella?" Mac said lifting his head up from the floor and looking over the bed. He couldn't see her so he stood up and looked around.
"Damn," She whispered almost inaudibly, "Remind me, not to eat Prawn Cocktail." She said to him, grinning and reaching into the freezer for some ice cream. But Mac knew that she had hardly touched the cocktail last night. He looked on the tub, something Greek; she loved the yoghurty flavour of Greek ice cream. But he was worried, he always worried about her. Mac's thought were making him laugh, he was trying to stop but was failing quite dismally…
"What the hell are you laughing at?" She asked, she was getting angry, and that wasn't a good thing. "Never mind, I'm going out to the chemist." Mac arched an eyebrow at what she was wearing, pyjamas and that was about it, "After I've had a wash and gotten dressed…" She said walking into the bathroom and locking the door after her…
When she came out Mac had made a decicion. She smiled at him, it's hard being mad at him for long. She thought and went over to him.
"Sorry I got mad earlyer," She said, Mac closed the space between them with one swift move.
"All is forgiven..." He told her, "One question..."
"Shoot," She said. Smiling.
"You know how you love me so much, can't we make it forever...!" Stella looked at him, confused, she hadn't understood what he meant, "Do you really have to say it?" He sighed and Stella became more confused. "Stella, will you marry me?!" Stella's smile had disappeared. And had been replaced by a frown. She thought about it for a moment.
"Uh... Ah... Yes!" She finally decided her answer and nodded enthusiastically. Mac hugged her tight, and laughed. To her delight she too was very pleased with her decision. And laughed with him, "I'll see you soon," She whispered to him, before wriggling out of the embrace and skipped lightly out of the door.
