Jacob came home and greeted Hannah with a kiss. "I've been thinking we should take a vacation" he said.
"Yeah that'd be nice I havent been on a vacation in years with law school and all" she said excitedly.
"You've been at your job a while now I think you should ask for some time off" he said.
"I will, when do you think?"
"Whenever you can go I'm ready" he grinned at her.
"Where should we go?" she asked, excited to plan their trip.
"Somewhere tropical where you can wear a skimpy bikini at all times" he said grinning at her playfully.
"Mmm hmm I thought the idea was to have a vacation not stay in the room all day" she teased him.
"Having you all to myself in paradise is my dream vacation" he told her.
"Mine too" she said climbing onto his lap and kissing him. "Besides I'll enjoy all the girls lusting after your shirtless body, knowing its all mine" she said grinning.
He laughed "Yeah well the guys will be the same way with you"
"Not as much as the girls, we already cant go anywhere without girls falling all over you, add in some skin and Im going to have to beat them off with a stick" she teased him playfully.
"I'm all yours, I havent even noticed any other women since you kissed me that night in the bar"
"I dont believe that" she smirked "But thank you baby that was sweet" she said kissing him lovingly.
They decided on Riveria Maya, Mexico for its white sand and clear blue water as the perfect vacation spot. Hannah was able to get time off a few weeks later.
Jacob and Hannah arrived in Mexico and had a great time just relaxing on the beach and by the pool sipping margaritas and dacquiris and making love.
Jacob planned to propose on their third day there, so that she was totally relaxed having already enjoyed several days there and having several days left to spend there to celebrate hopefully.
Jacob suggested they take a walk at sunset before dinner. They walked hand in hand. "You look beautiful" he told her, admiring her in a pink sundress.
She smiled lovingly "Thank you, youre not so bad yourself"
They got out to the beach and watched the sunset. Jacob had his arm around her, she had her arm around his waist and turned to face him and wrap her arms around him.
"This is amazing, what a great idea to go on vacation. I'm so glad I thought of it" she smiled up at him, teasingly.
She had turned so that she was now facing the hotel grounds and noticed people standing on the walkway leading to the beach. She stared in that direction, confused.
"Is that my family? What...?" she asked.
Jacob took a step back. She stared at him, his face serious. What was happening suddenly dawned on her.
"Oh my God, I think I just got it. Jacob?" she asked nervously.
He smiled at her, that sweet little smile that made her melt, as he knelt down on one knee on the sand in front of her.
"Oh god, Oh god" she repeated, her hands flying up to her mouth, covering it.
"Hannah" he started
"What are you doing?" she asked anxiously
"Hannah, I love you so much. You are my life and I want to spend every day with you. Will you marry me?" he asked presenting the ring.
By now she was crying, she nodded yes, temporarily unable to get the words out. "Yes" she nodded happily.
He grinned and stood up, taking her left hand and sliding the ring on her finger. They both looked at it smiling happily.
She grabbed the back of his neck and pulled him down to her to kiss him passionately, just like she had the first time. He wrapped his arms around her back and held her close. "I love you" he whispered softly when they broke the kiss. "I love you" she whispered back, as he wiped away her happy tears.
Jacob turned and nodded to her family to come join them, they ran over and Emily, Hannah and Molly gushed over the ring, jumping up and down and squealing excitedly like girls do.
Robbby offered Jacob a congratulatory fist bump. Cal shook his hand. "Jacob, congratulations" he said then pulled him in for a guy hug which consisted of a pat on the back.
Jacob had set up a private dinner at one of the resort restaurants for them to celebrate. Jacob had his arm around Hannah and she was cuddled up to him, her hand resting lovingly on his thigh. Cal proposed a toast. "When I met Jacob, I could never have imagined one day we'd be here" he chuckled.
"But I'm glad we are, I've never seen my baby so happy and I know you'll do everything you can to make her happy...under threat of death" he added. Everyone laughed. "To Jacob and Hannah" he said, raising his glass. Hannah looked up at him smiling happily, he smiled back leaning down to kiss her tenderly.
