"It'll be fine, Dan"
"It won't"
I smiled softly, nudging him lightly.
"Yes it will, stop worrying"
He gave me a small smile, showing off those adorable dimples
"What if they don't like me?"
I laughed, gently taking his hand in mine
"They'll love you, Stop worrying"
He nodded slowly, turning his attention to outside the train window. I felt a small smile tugging at my lips as he leaned against me.
We were currently on the train on our way to see my parents. They had invited us to their anniversary party, and of course, I had agreed on behalf of both of us. Dan had seemed excited about meeting my parents but now we're actually on our way he seems to be way more nervous. It's kinda cute though.
He really is adorable
************************************************** *******************
"Phil! I'm so glad you could make it"
Mum cooed at me as she brought me into a tight hug.
I laughed softly, attempting to pull away from the slightly awkward long hug
"And you must be Dan"
Dan looked alarmed that she was actually talking to him. He managed a small smile at her and stuck out his hand for a hand shake. She just smiled and gave him a tight hug.
"No need for handshakes, you're basically part of the family now"
Dan grinned in my direction, hugging my mum back just as tightly
"Thank you"
She finally let him go then flashed us both a small mischievous smile.
"Now you two better be on your best behaviour"
She laughed to herself as she left us to wonder what she had meant by that.
Then it clicked
"Mummmmmmmmmmmmm" I whined following her "Don't make jokes like that"
"Come on hun, I'm your mother. It's my job to embarrass you with jokes like that" she replied, walking into the kitchen.
I just pouted, turning to look at Dan who was trying extremely hard to hold in his laughter
Everything seemed perfect so far.
************************************************** *******************
"If I could have everyone's attention, id like to propose a toast"
I smiled softly as I saw the huge grin on Dan's face. He was really getting into this whole family occasion. He was even making a toast now? I guess he really was trying to make a good impression.
"A toast to everyone really. I hope you all find happiness. I know I have. I have Phil, and let me tell you, he is the best thing that has ever happened to me"
I blushed furiously as everyone's gaze landed on me. They were all smiling, every single one of them. It made my blush darken, but it made me smile too.
"Also, one more thing"
What was he doing now?
Dan walked over to me, smiling sweetly. He gently took my hands in his and looked into my eyes. His eyes still took my breath away.
He was still my perfect Dan.
"Phil, I love you more than anything else in the world. I know we've had our hard times. Ever couple does. I also I'm such a weirdo and can act like a real idiot at times, but"
Dan looked down nervously before smiling as he looked back into my eyes. I watched, in shock as he got down on one knee and held out a ring in his hand
"Will you marry me Philip Lester?"
I gasped loudly, looking from Dan to the ring to the rest of the eagerly watching guests. My gaze fell on mum who was grinning excitedly, nodding like an idiot at me.
"I um"
A large grin spread across my face
"Oh why not"
Dan's grin matched my own as he delicately took my left hand and slid the sparkling ring on my finger. I stared in shock at it for a few moments before Dan leapt up and about crushed me in a huge hug.
"I love you Phil, so much"
"I love you too, Dan. More than anything else in the world"
************************************************** *******************
"I can't believe you're my fiancé"
"Me either"
Dan smiled softly as he gently placed a small kiss to my hand. The eventful day was now coming to an end. I never thought in a million years that Dan would have proposed to me like that.
Not that I mind
I mean, he is the guy of my dreams
He's everything I ever wanted.
He loved me for so long. It's crazy to think that he's loved me all this time, ever since high school. It really was completely crazy
"Phil?"
I smiled at him
My perfect Dan
He would be my perfect Dan forever now
Maybe everyone's story does have a happy ending
We would get married, have a family. Spend everyday of the rest of our lives together
Live happily ever after.
