Chapter 5: Celebration
---------------------------------
"It's been a great year, Gia." Allen whispered to her.
"I know! Can you beleive that we've just graduated? It seems to have gone by so fast!"
"Yeah, but when something special happened, it seemed to last foerever."
"I know." She sighed. "It was even better since we were together."
So, the school year has ended for the pair, and there they stand with their caps and gowns on. The ceremony had just ended and they were ready to go out in the world. If you can't already tell, they had been a couple. Tonight, they were to go out and celebrate their graduation at Gia's apartment.
Night has fallen and we there the pair is sitting on her couch. There is an open champaine bottle on the coffee table, and they are wearing some nice evening clothes. And the celebration continues...
"Allen," she leaned on his shoulder while holding up her glass, "Let's make a toast."
"Ok," he grabbed his and lifted it to level with hers.
"To a wonderful future and life..." Their glasses made contact, and the two sipped a little chapmpaigne.
"...Together," Allen said to her.
"Together?" she responded in a confused tone.
"I mean, Gia, This past year has been so wonderful. I feel that without you, it would have been a horrifying expirence. I have to admit, at first I kind of afraid of you, and, yes, even had a little thing against you. But, we put that aside and we became friends. And it was only obvious that we were soon to become involved, romantically. And I loved every minute of what we've had." he coughed a little, put his glass down, and slid down from the couch, to his knee. He held her empty hand. "What I mean is, would you like to stay together? Forever?" he took something out of his pocket and gave it to her. "Please, open it, Gia."
She quickly opened it, shifting her attention to the little black box. There was a little note in it. Her eyes lit up (A/N: You know! Like when Gaz sees pizza!), she gasped, and a smile grew on her lips as she read it. She threw the paper to the floor to reveal what was under it: A white-gold ring with a small, flawless diamond on it.
"Well?" asked an anxious Allen. "Whats your answer?
"My answer is..." Allen looked even more nervous with these words. "Yes!" he gave a big sigh of relief when she spoke. "Of course I will!" she pulled him up to hug him.
"Oh, thank god! Gia, I know you wont regret this!" They leaned in close and kissed each other, quite passionatly.
About an hour later, they say goodbye to each other and kiss once more at the door.
"Bye, Allen." She said while waving to him. She closes the door as he comes out of view and sighs, leaning on it. She walks back to her couch and finds the paper thrown on the floor earlier. She remembers the whole scene as she re-reads the paper out loud to herself. "Will you marry me?"

A Word from Nikki: Well, that was chapter 5! Yup! They are getting hitched! ^_^ I told you the rest of the story would be going a lot faster than the first four. Anyway, I know that was a little predictible and not very Zim-character-like, but how can you show a proposal being IZ like? Well, I suppose its possible, but this is coming from a character that hardly ever appears, and we know next to nothing on his personality. Well, we know a little, but not too much. Ok, so I hope you liked this chapter, and I hope you are looking forward to the next one! ^_^
