A/N: So I have decided that I'm only going to make this last chapter and then end this story. But don't worry a sequel will arrive in a couple of weeks. I have another story, also Don/OFC, in my head that I need to get out but I'll start the sequel soon.
Disclaimer: Same as in the first chapter.
Storybook endings
Fairy tales coming true
Deep down inside
We wanna believe they still do
In our secretest heart
Its our favorite part of the story
Let's just admit we all wanna make it to
- Carrie Underwood - Ever Ever after
Don picked up Tessa around noon the day after. He drove them back to his place, had a coffee and just talked. Something they always used to do before the whole thing with Brooks started.
"Megan called earlier. Apparently, Brooks left the country yesterday afternoon." Both he and Tessa were sitting in his couch. Don was playing with her hair while Tessa had her legs over his, sitting sideways in the couch.
"So now what?" Tessa looked at him, smiling slightly all because of his hand playing with a lock of her hair.
"Well, we have a bolo on him so if he tries to enter the country again the people on the train stations, airports and borders will have his face. But until then we'll take it easy and move on with our lives and you are staying out of trouble." Don smiled at her. "Now all we have to do is to arrange everything for Jay." He said sadly.
"It's all taken care of. You know how odd Jay could be when it came to his death. He already had everything prepared."
"Yeah I know, so its just setting a date for the funeral then?"
"yeah" Cried Tessa. "Why Jay? He didn't do anything!"
Don didn't know what to say. He asked himself the same thing. But then again, after all his years in the FBI he shouldn't be surprised.
"Hey." He said and turned Tessas head up so that her eyes met his. "It's going to be OK. Its going to take a while but we'll make it."
2 weeks later Jay was buried. He had chosen a beautiful gravestone in red marble and a simple inscription on it. Goofy as Jay was, he hated the thought of people crying their hearts out during his funeral so he made sure that he went down in history with a laugh. Everyone that came to the funeral barely had time to cry.
3 months later
Don was finishing the final touches on the table he had set. He had to make sure that everything was perfect for tonight. He had even turned of his cell phone. Tonight was the night he was going to propose to Tessa. It all had gone quite fast.
He stopped what he was doing and looked at it. The table were set with beautiful plates and silverware and in the middle of the table stood a vase with a dozen red roses. He had champagne on cooling and rose petals on the floor.
Don looked at the clock. It was almost 7 which means that Charlie will be dropping Tessa of any minute now.
"Charlie, what is he up to?" Tessa asked Charlie as they drove from 'Le Monde' to Don and Tessas apartment. For the last month Don and Tessa has lived together.
"You'll just have to wait and see." Charlie smiled.
"So you know what he's up to?"
"Yes I know what he's up to but I'm not going to tell."
Tessa rolled her eyes an looked out the window.
What Tessa didn't know was that the day before, Don and Charlie had been out together getting her an engagement ring.
Charlie dropped Tessa of and drove away with a smile. Tessa walked up to the apartment and walked in.
"Don?"
"I'm in the living room."
Tessa hung up her jacket and walked in to the living room. When she entered she saw the table, the roses and the rose petals on the floor.
"Donnie" she was speechless. It was absolutely beautiful. Don was standing by the table smiling at her. He walked up to her and kissed her.
"You hungry?" Tessa just smiled at him and he led her to the table and pulled out her chair for her.
"Don? What are you up to?"
Don laughed. "I just thought that after everything, we deserve a night off just the two of us. No murders, or kidnappings or crises in the kitchen."
"I love it." Tessa said and kissed him.
Don smiled and sat down. They had a nice and quiet dinner and after they were done. Don looked at Tessa.
"Tessie, you know I love you more than anything right?"
"Of course I do. I love you to."
Don smiled relived. He took out a blue little box and went down on one knee.
"Tessie, you're my best friend, my confidant and my lover. I love you so much. Will you marry me?"
And for the second time that night Tessa was speechless. She had tears in her eyes and all she could do was nod.
"Yes, Don. I'd love to marry you."
A/N: That's all my friends for now. I hope you liked it. Have a good day and take care of yourselves. Loads of hugs and kisses. Jen
