There was a green flash and both Natalie and Erik had forgotten everything that had happened after they had breakfast. "Love what is going on? When did you set the table like this?" She looked around he apartment. "Me? I didn't do this. You must have done it." Erik shook his head. "No, I didn't." There was a loud high pitch noise that only Natalie and Erik could hear. Everything turned into a blur as they went back in time, back to when Natalie woke up on the couch that same day. So they didn't go to far back they just go a day re-do. Everything they did that happened in reveres until it stopped. If one where to enter into the apartment they would first have to open the door, but then they would find it to be very quite and it would seem to be empty, but that is not the case. There on the couch was Natalie alone in the apartment asleep.

Natalie's POV

I awoke to an empty apartment and I was on the couch. I must have been so deep in sleep that I didn't hear the door being repaired. Surely Erik would have moved me to the bedroom, but he didn't. Something was on Erik's mind. Something was bothering him and I am going to find out. I sat up and looked around this place really needs to be decorated. Erik was nowhere to be found. I wonder where he is. I got up and looked around for him making sure he wasn't out on the porch or in the bathroom. I went back to the living room and sat on the couch for all of 30 seconds before looking around in draws for any clue of where Erik had disappeared to. Oh I hope that he wasn't sent back to his time.

I found a black book that had Erik's name embossed on the front in gold calligraphy. I looked over it. It looked like a journal. I flipped threw the pages until I found an entry from was written in a neat scrawl with some letters looping around others. I began to read but after the second paragraph I stopped. The entry or what I read of it was all about how wonderful and perfect he thought I was and how much he loved me. But there was nothing on where he might have went or if he was planing any thing.

I heard the key in the lock. I closed the journal and put it back closing the draw, quickly going to the living room. Erik came in with a few bags. "Did you sleep well?" He said as he came over and pulled me into a hug. "Yes, thank you. Where have you been?" He ran his fingers threw my hair and played with it before tucking it behind my ear. "Out. Now why don't you go and visit one of your friends." I narrowed my eyes at him suspiciously. "Are you trying to get rid of me?" He pulled me closer, grabbed my ass and kissed me. "Only for a little while. It isn't healthy for couples to spend every second in each others company and we have been so since you came to me in the lair. Except for that night. Be back by 6:30." I touched his cheek. "I suppose you're right. I'll bring the laundry." I grabbed the laundry and headed to Fairyteyla's apartment. I did the laundry and we hung out.

Erik's POV

I opened one bag and pulled out a new white table cloth and put it on the table. I turned the lights on the chandler that hung over the table down low to a more romantic setting. I took the silver candle holders and placed them at an even distance apart. I set the table with white plates that had a simple silver border with matching bowels. I took the wine out and placed it in the fridge. I took a smaller bag out go the big bag and took a box out of the small bag and put it in my pocket. I placed wine glasses on the table and turned on some romantic music.

I made up the bed and cleaned the apartment a bit before spreading rose petals over and around the table as well as the bed. From the second bag I took out filet mignonand marinated it in Australian red wine for a half hour. While they were soaking in the wine I made a broccoli and carrot mix and boiled them. I opened the cranberry sauce and put it in a dish on the table. The half hour was over and I rubbed parsley and basil and a little bit of mint onto the filet mignon and seared it in the pan until they were medium rare. I washed the pan and put all the dishes in the dish washer. I put a little bit of everything on each plate, lit the candles and turned off all the lights in the apartment except the chandler and poured the wine. Just as Natalie walked threw the door.

She looked around shocked standing just outside the door. "What's going on? Erik?" She stepped inside slowly and closed the door. I stood behind her chair ready to pull it out for her. She put the laundry basket down and walked over to me. "Is all this for me?" I pulled out her chair for her and pushed it back in when she sat down. I leaned close to her ear and whispered. "Yes," I straightened and sat in my seat. "What's al this for Erik? It smells wonderful." She picked up her fork and cut into the steak and ate a piece. " I wanted to make to night special I have something to ask you." She ate a bit more and dabbed at her mouth with her napkin. "Yes, what is Erik." Suddenly I got nervous. What if she says no? "Lets eat before every thing gets cold. I'll ask you later." She nodded and ate some cranberry sauce and her vegetables. "You do know I'm not legally allowed to drink alcohol because Imo not yet 21." I froze and swallowed my mouth full of food. "Oh love I'm sorry I didn't realize." I reached for her glass and threw my head back and finished the glass. She got the bottle and drank quite a bit of it. I smirked at her. "Little law breaker." She exhaled then inhaled. "I just don think it is fair every country other then America I am old enough to drink." I nodded agreeing with her.

In my head I was talking my self to pluck up the courage and ask her already. After a few minutes I stood up. Natalie was watching me. "Erik this is delicious." I reached into my pocket and wrapped my hand around the small ring box. "Thank you love." I slowly made my way over to her and turned her chair so she was facing me. "Erik? What are you doing? Whats going on?" She looked back at me looking confused. "Natalie...'" I got down on my knee and she gasped and covered her mouth as she realized what was happening. "Oh my god. No way. Is this really happening?" I smirked at her but only for a second. She took her hand away from her face and placed it on mine as I took the box out of my pocket. She smiled really big and started to cry. "Don't cry love. You know I don't like it when you cry." She sniffed and dabbed at her eyes. "I'm sorry. I'm just so... What were you going to say." I kissed the back of her hand.

"Natalie I always lived in the dark, I always believed that love and

obsession are the same thing but one day you came to me, at a moment of my

Life I thought I would never need you. You opened my eyes yet. You trusted me,

you considered me like a man, not like a monster, not like an angel...You were

not afraid of me. You were the only one who seemed to know me better than

myself. You lead me from my solitude. Now I know what the true love is. It's

not an obsession, just a constant fear to lose the one who represents

everything. I know that you must move in September but if you go without me,

I would die, because my heart can't beat without you, my soul can't exist

without you... Because my heart is yours, my soul is yours... I was a fool, an

idiot but you taught me everything which is important to me, when it was in my

time and now in yours. You possess me, I'm nothing without you. Would you like

to share with me one love, one lifetime? Do you hear what my heart sing for

you? Please Natalie, listen to the music of my heart and of yours, will you... marry me?''

She froze stared at me blankly. I'm guessing that isn't a good sign. She is still staring at me and after about 30 more seconds she got up. I thought she was going to run and lock herself in the bathroom but five seconds later she tackled me. She's going to say no. At least Christine didn't tackle me. Her mouth slowly inched closer to mine. She stopped moving closer when she was an inch or less from my mouth. She was teasing me. This is supposed to be serious. But this is so hot. "yesssss." She breathed onto my mouth barely above a whisper. I lifted my head up a little bit. "You're so hot." She giggled and kissed me. Man I am so lucky to have her. She got off me and pulled me as best she could which didn't really work. What really happened is I got up a few seconds after her holding her hand. She pulled us into the bed room the rest of the meal lay on the table forgotten. The rest of the world lay forgotten.

Big thanks to Fairyteyla for writing Erik's proposal speech
