Charlie went to the bathroom as soon as they got back. Brax quickly went into his bag and took out a small ring box.

Brax was sitting on the bed as she came out so she went as sat next to him.

Sitting up, Charlie knew Brax must have been on edge about something. Had she done something wrong?

"Charlie. I just want to say, thankyou so much for tonight. I know I have said it many times tonight, but I can't thankyou enough. Your my favourite person, and Geelong are my favourite team. To be able spend my birthday with both, words can't describe how awesome it was. You made it so special. It was the best present ever.

"Aww, babe I'm glad you loved it! I had heaps of fun too!"

"Charlie, okay." Brax began super nervous. "I know we have only being together a few months, but these have being the best times of my life."

Charlie looked at him confused, until she saw the ring box. He continued. "Ruby came ring shopping with me. She quietly told me, about your commitment issues. I just want to say, if you don't want to then it's completely okay. I won't be annoyed at all."

Brax quickly got down on one knee. He spoke slowly, as he thought about what to say: "Charlie, I love you so much. I don't want you to just be my girlfriend, I want you to be my wife. Will you marry me?"

Charlie thought for 5 seconds then said "definitely."

Brax and Charlie both smiled at each other as he got the ring out and whispered, "are you 100% sure?"

"Yep, I've never been more sure of anything in my life." Brax slipped the ring onto her finger and it seemed to fit perfectly.

"That's so beautiful!" Charlie said, gripping Brax tightly for a lengthy embrace.

"I can't wait for you to be my wife Charlie!"

"Me either! When did you get the ring?" Charlie asked curiously.

"About a week. You said we were catching a plane somewhere, so I thought it could be the right time to ask!" Brax explained.

"How about we finish your birthday off with a high." Charlie whispered as she moved back on the bed, as Brax moved with her. Kissing Brax she slid his shirt off gently before taking hers off too. She got up quickly and went and placed them on the table with care. She wasn't going to let anything happen to their shirts.

Brax laughed as she came back to the bed and picked up where they left off.

The next morning, after not falling asleep until just after midnight, Charlie woke up at 10:00 am. She rolled over to snuggle with Brax but he wasn't there. Sitting up, Charlie couldn't see Brax anywhere.

She wrapped a sheet around her and got up, looking every where not finding him.

Her phone was sitting on the coffee table as she tried to ring his phone. Charlie heard it in another room and soon realised he doesn't have it with him.

Charlie went and sat on the couch, as she played with her engagement ring. She began getting worried, when he still hadn't returned 10 minutes later. She laid down, as Brax walked through the door.

"OMG Brax, where were you?" She asked running up to him and hugging urgently.

"I just thought I'd go and get my beautiful fiancé some breakfast."

"I rolled over and then you weren't there. I was lonely."

"I'm so sorry! Brax said kissing her cheek. "I went for a walk to Maccas down the road. I've got you a bacon and egg mc-muffin and a chocolate shake.

"Thankyou!" she said as the sat on the couch eating.

"So, what's on the agenda for today?" Brax asked while they ate together.

"I've got us booked in for a cruise, down the Yarra River..."

"Not a problem, the cruise sounds nice!"

"We have to head back to tonight though. Tomorrow is my last official day in the force then i get to spend more time with you at Angleo's."

"And i'm looking forward to that!" Brax whispered.

Brax and Charlie, boarded their boat. There were other people on it too, but only probably 12.

Sailing down at a nice and easy comfortable pace, Charlie and Brax laid outside as they snuggled up to each other, talking about their wedding and admiring the view.

"I don't think I want to get married in a church." Charlie said.

"Really. Where are you thinking?"

"A beach. Somewhere secluded. I know that the beach has been a big part of you life. I'd like a laid back ceremony, so I think it's perfect."

"That sounds great! Your not doing that for me though are you? I just want you to pick whatever you want. I'll do it anywhere as long as I get to marry you!"

"I want you to help me though. A marriage is between
two people, I can't just make every decision."

"Fair enough then.. What else are you thinking?" Brax asked.

"I'd like it to be a small wedding. Just the close family and friends."

"So maybe, no more then 30?"

"Yep. I only want the people you and I are closet to there. So I'd only invite on my side:
Ruby, Bee, Leah, Miles, VJ and Morag. Then maybe Irene, Roo and Marilyn."

"Nice and small! My guest list would be: Heath, Darcy, Casey and Mum. Maybe one or two of the boys."

Counting on there fingers, they worked out they would only have around 15 guests. "I think that's perfect- Small and intimate. I don't want anyone there who has judged us. Colleen Smart definitely won't be getting an invite!" Brax laughed.

"Let's make it bare foot ceremony. I don't exactly see myself walking down in high heels! I'd probably fall over."
Charlie laughed

"And I'd be there to pick you up." Brax said kissing Charlie. This cruise was definitely the most romantic thing they'd ever done together.

"When sort if dates are you thinking?" Charlie asked Brax

"Well how about next year?"

"We can do that. How about toward the middle of next year after Bee and Heath have their beautiful baby?"

"I'll probably ask Heath and Casey as the best men. I know Casey wil do it, I'll probably have to convince him. He won't want to make a speech."

"I'll ask Bee and Ruby. They'll both be thrilled."

"What about the reception?" Charlie wondered...

"Well we dont have to do anything big- there's only going to be like 20 of us. I could close Angelo's for the night and use that for the reception.."

"We've just planned our day in 5 minutes!" Charlie laughed.

"It's sounds perfect! I can't wait to marry you." Brax whispered pulling Charlie as close as possible.
