I am extremely sad that Leverage will be no more BUT I loved the finale and couldn't have ended more perfectly than it did. Enjoy!
SOME TIME AFTER THE MOREAU INCIDENT
Sophie sat on the couch reading a book while Nate sat back by the kitchen island just watching her from behind.
"You know the view is better from over here," Sophie said in a knowing tone, not taking her eyes off her book. Nate smiled and walked over to her taking the book from her hands and bending down till his face was leveled with Sophie's.
"Marry me."
"Excuse me? And where's the ring?" Sophie was not only appalled by the sudden question but also disappointed that he wasn't on one knee with a ring in his hand. She never actually thought he would ever want to get married after everything that happened with his first marriage.
Nate laughed and knew that this wasn't the most optimum way he would have liked to ask the woman he loved to marry him but it felt right to him. It was something he couldn't describe with words.
"Well I thought you would want to pick out the ring," that was to some extent true, because he was just gonna get her the most expensive ring he could find and he decided to make his task easier for him by letting her pick it out.
"I like how you think Mr. Ford," Sophie said winking and pulling his head towards her to kiss him.
"I love you Sophie and I will never ever get tired of repeating those words to you. Those will be the first and last words that you will hear from me everyday from now on," Sophie looked into Nate's eyes with her own already becoming brimmed red. Everything that she had endured the past five years has been worth it, and nothing compared to this moment. She absolutely loved the people that have surrounded her and have loved her just as much. Parker, Hardison, and Eliot will always obtain a special place in her heart.
"And I love you Nate," Sophie whispered smiling while a try ran down her cheek.

"I'd like to propose a toast," Eliot spoke up in the middle of dinner that he had gladly prepared for his family. He took a moment to look at each of them before continuing. "I am a man of few words, but no words can depict the impact that each and everyone of you have made in my life. For once I'm genuinely happy. So thank you, cheers."
"Cheers."
"I have something to say," Parker spoke raising her hand up. "I know I'm not normal but when I'm with all of you, I feel normal, like I actually belong somewhere," Parker took a moment to recollect the events that lead them to this very moment. She turned to look at Hardison and hesitantly took his hand in hers squeezing it gently, Hardison gave her a warm reassuring smile. " And I wouldn't want to be anywhere else."
"Me either," Hardison chimed in.
"Well since we're all getting all sentimental and all, I wanted to announce that Sophie and I..." Nate turned to look at his fiancé, " are engaged."
"It's about time man, Congratulations!" Eliot exclaimed.
"Where's the ring though?" Parker said crinkling her nose.
"Well Nate kind of asked out of nowhere and he's letting me pick out the ring," Sophie said smiling widely.
"Good thinking man," Hardison said half chuckling.
The rest of the night was spent with laughter and happiness. Everything after that seemed to fall into place and nothing mattered, they had each other.
THE END.
I know in the Finale Nate already proposed and it is WAY better than how I wrote it and I had written this three days before the episode so yeah. Thank you for reading and I appreciate the reviews! Xx
