I think that we all have this...impression we want left when the one we love proposes, and while this was not my own wish, I think it fits perfectly for Tyler/Caroline, simple yet wonderful. Their private lives being what is most important to them...so a billboard with "Will You Marry Me?" just wouldn't fit them. (Even though while in high school I think that is what Caroline would have wanted, being the romantic and all.)
I hope you enjoy! Please review!
29. Proposal
Caroline originally wanted to go out to a nice city restaurant for their anniversary, but when Tyler offered to cook dinner, she couldn't turn it down. He was an excellent cook, even though he was always at work so she never got to experience it.
When she came home from a long day at work, the smell of his mother's homemade sauce filled her senses. Excited, she went inside and wrapped her arms around his waist, her intentions to surprise him, but he knew he was there just waiting for her touch.
She had the perfect boyfriend.
They ate while Caroline talked about her day, but she could see how fidgety he was. The second she finished, he took her plate and put it in the sink and sauntered back into the dining room.
She watched In confusion as he got down on one knee.
"Caroline will you marry me?"
Instantly, she knew the answer, she couldn't say no. He was perfect for her, and she hoped she was perfect for him. She smiled as she began to cry, looking at the ring and it's immediate beauty with it's perfect diamond surrounded by blue stones on a thin silver band.
The ring, the boyfriend, the life she always wanted, it was all coming together.
How could she say no?
