A/N: Sorry in my posting delays, but now that my semester is over they will be much faster, just in time to finish this up and maybe write a sequel. Please Enjoy!

Summary/Disclaimer: See Chapter 1

Colleen watched as Carson opened the red velvet box that he held and displayed the enclosed ring for her to see. The emerald ring inside matched her eyes perfectly, it was no wonder why Carson had chosen this particular ring. She couldn't believe her eyes or her ears for that matter, Carson was asking her to marry him. He hadn't just asked once either no in the past few moments he had asked her three times.

Colleen stepped forward until she was standing right in front of Carson, there were no words in her voice anymore, the tears had stopped now and the ball was in her court; she knew that he would not ask her again, but the fact that he had yet to move showed her that he was unwilling to take no for an answer. Colleen reached out and took the box from his offered hand. Up close she could see the age in this ring and knew that there had to be a history behind it. The white gold band was faded, but looked recently polished as she examined it and the diamond baguette sides shown bright under the dim light in her room. Slowly, she removed the ring from its place in the box and slid it on her finger, it couldn't have fit better unless she had gone with him to pick it out.

Carson let out the breath that he was holding and stood and smiled as he wrapped his arms around her and lifted her off the floor and into his arms. After placing her back down on the floor he cupped her face in his hands and leaned into kiss her ever so gently, but enough that Colleen knew how much he loved her.

"So that's a yes then?

"Yes Carson Beckett, I will marry you."

"I love you so much Colleen, and I will do everything that I can to make you happy."

"You already do Carson, you already do."

With that they kissed again and then made love for the next few days, things were definitely changing and it would be interesting to see where they would go from here.

A/N: Ok this one is finished for you, please enjoy and review kindly. Also keep your eyes open for a sequel to this with more fluff than angst, I promise.
