A/N: This is the long awaited chapter of the proposal. Now, this is also the last nite Jeff is with the WWE. So I made how I think the WWE should handle wrestlers that are quitting, retiring, or being fired. I think they all deserve one last match and one last time to say goodbye. So that's pretty much what I did here. I wrote this like 10 chapters ago. Lol And I've read it over like 30 times and each time I read it over, the worse I think it sounds. But I find lately that I have that for a problem. I like second guess myself or something. But anyways, here it is.

******************

"Jeff, are you sure you wanna do something like this in front of all these people?" Shannon asked as Jeff stood up from the bench.

"Shan, I'm confident this is all gonna turn out alright," Jeff smiled.

"How do you feel about this being Jeff's last nite?" Stacy asked as I pulled Adam's sweatshirt over my ponytail.

"I'm really upset, but don't tell him that," I shivered as I pulled out my walkman and Unloco cd. I paused as Jeff's entrance music went off and he bounced out onto the stage. "What's goin on? His match isn't until later and I'm supposed to walk out with him!"

"I don't know. Looks like he's making a speech," Stacy replied as we all focused on the tv.

"What's Jeff doin out here?!" King exclaimed.

"I don't really know. Tonite's the King of Extreme's last nite with the WWE and his match isn't until later. Looks like he's making a speech," JR replied.

"I'm glad that my last nite with the WWE could be right here in Charlotte, North Carolina," Jeff started. "And although my last match isn't until later I wanted to come out here and leave by doing something special."

"Case, What's he doin?" Gail asked. I looked at her and shrugged.

"I fell in love almost 4 years ago when I first laid my eyes on this one special girl. I remember the first time I saw her. She was soaking from head to toe. Her dyed blonde hair dripped with rain water and her crystal blue eyes showed much pain and sorrow even though she smiled brightly. I remember how she looked in a pair of my athletic pants, in which she still wears around the house today, and couldn't believe how beautiful she looked."

"Is he talking about you?" Gail asked.

"I think so," I replied with a clueless look on my face.

"She's changed so much from that shy girl that I met. Our friendship has been through so many trials and tribulations, but I couldn't imagine being with anyone else during those times. I remember the first time she jumped off a ladder and how Matt was convinced that his little sister wasn't ready for such risks. Since that moment she's thrown her body into many different things. From simple single matches, to hardcore matches, to TLC matches, and everything in between. She's a true daredevil trapped in an angel's body. Everyone has been able to see our relationship grow on and off screen. I love every single part of her. From her small ticklish feet to her now purple, black, and blue streaked bleach blonde hair. I love how her small hands, that usually have dark blue and black finger nails, fit in mine. I love how she giggles whenever I go to kiss her neck because of my goatee. Since the moment of her first match she's been called the female version of me, and she is so much like me it's amazing. Even though she's as tough as anyone of us guys, she has this certain childish innocence about her. One minute she could be kicking anyone of our asses and the next she could be watching the Lion King. I know that right now she's got Edge's sweatshirt on over her freezing cold body, sitting in the Diva's locker room watching this with her headphones around her neck, ready to listen to probably Unloco, and has this blank look on her face."

"Wow, he's good," Gail laughed.

"Now that I've blabbed on long enough, Casey Piniarski, could you come out here?" he requested.

I looked around the locker room at all the girls as they gave me excited smiles. I threw my headphones on the bench and stood as I slowly made my way to the gorilla position, chewing on the strings to the hood of Adam's sweatshirt and my hands in its front pocket. I nodded at the sound techs, signaling them to play my music. I walked out to a tremendous pop as I gave Jeff a nervous smile. I lowered my baggy black jeans slightly and slowly walked to the ring. Jeff smiled at me as I stood in front of him. The arena suddenly became hushed.

"What's going on?" I asked.

"Casey, you know that I love you and always have. You also know me well enough to know that I have to go out with a bang. And what's better then confessing my love for you. And I mean you, Casey Lee Piniarski, not Mystic Angel," he said as I continued to stare at him.

"I don't understand. Are the McMahon's cool with all this?!" I asked.

"We've been friends for almost 4 years and a couple for almost a year. I think we're ready for this."

"Jeff, are you saying what I think you're saying?" I asked as he took my left hand in his and dropped down to his knee. He pulled out a black velvet box from his back pocket and opened it to reveal a silver band with a diamond heart on it.

"Casey, I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you become Casey Hardy and be my wife?" he asked as I immediately put my hand to my gaping mouth. My eyes watered as I felt everyone begin to chant yes in anticipation for my answer. I knelt down to his level and smiled.

"Yes Jeff. I want to be your wife!" I replied as everyone stood in the arena and applauded. Jeff smiled as he placed the ring on my finger and wrapped me tightly in his arms. We stood and I kissed him deeply before we left the ring.

"There goes the happiest WWE couple I've seen in the longest time," JR said. "We all wish Casey, better known as Mystic Angel to the wrestling world, and Jeff Hardy luck in the future."

"I see good things for these two kids JR," King smiled as we disappeared.

"Okay, now was that real or for show?" I asked nervously, not really wanting to know the answer.

"Casey, I wouldn't lie about something like this," he replied placing his hands on my face.

"I love you," I cried as he brought my face to his.

"I'm so glad you said yes," Jeff said kissing me softly.

"I'm so glad you asked. God Jeff, this is the best nite of my life!" I exclaimed squeezing him tightly.

"Well, go show it off. No one but Matt, Shannon, and Trish have seen it," he laughed.

"I'll see you for your match!" I kissed his cheek and took off down the hall squealing excitedly. My first stop was of course the Diva's locker room. The second I stepped inside everyone crowded around me.

"Oh my God! This is so exciting!" Amy exclaimed hugging me tightly. "Welcome to the family.........AGAIN!"

"I can't believe you're gonna get married," Nora cried her eyes filled with tears. She hugged me and backed away slowly allowing the other girls to hug me.

"Well, now that you all have seen my ring, I gotta go tell my father. God, I can't believe this is happening to me!" I cried as I skipped out of the room.

I ran at Dad and he picked me up instantly in his arms, holding me tightly and not letting go. "I can't believe my little girl is going to get married," he said softly kissing my cheek. "I'm losing a daughter!"

"You're gaining a son!" I laughed. "Besides, you still have K."

"Oh Lord, it sure as hell better be a long time before I hear this from her," he smiled. "I love you sweetie."

"I love you too Daddy." I continued walking down the hall, receiving many words of congratulations. Adam was standing at the end of the hall talking to Jay and Chris, the three people I was looking for.

"Congratulations Kiddo," Adam smiled hugging me tightly. Jay patted me on the back waiting for his turn. "I'm happy for you. You and Jeff are going to have a wonderful marriage."

"I just hope it can be as great as you and Alanah," I smiled as I looked towards Chris.

"I'm happy for you Killer. You deserve this. You're a special girl," Chris said kissing my cheek.

"And Jeff's a SPECIAL boy," Jay and Adam joked.

"Haha guys. Thanks," I smiled before walking off again. The one person I wanted to tell wasn't there. Shane, was at home resting because of a knock to the head he got the nite before when he and Jeff lost the tag titles to Sean O' Haire and Mark Jindrak.

"Casey!" I heard a yell from behind me and turned. Shannon was staring at me with his hands on his hips waiting for me. I ran towards him and he held open his arms. As they closed around me, he picked me up and laughed. "Congratulations! This couldn't have happened to a better couple!"

"Thanks Shan. I'm so excited. I can't wait to start planning this thing," I laughed.

"I can imagine. So, got any ideas yet?" he asked.

"Well, I definitely want Daddy and my sister, Melanie to walk me down. After that, not a clue. Probably have Amy as my maid of honor," I bit on my lip as he smiled at me.

"God, I can't believe two of my best friends are getting married. AND to each other!" he said hugging me once again. "Well, I'm sure Jeff's match is almost up, so I'll let you run off to him now."

I started to run off again, but turned around and smiled at him. "I'M GETTING MARRIED!" I shouted before running away.

That nite after the show, Jeff and I drove home. Though we were tired, we jumped on the four-wheeler, with a spray paint can in purple, and rode down to the lake. On the back of the bench we had painted our names on top of each other the nite we re-painted it. So we added a heart around them, to commemorate that nite we got engaged. I fell asleep staring at the ring with his arms around me. I just couldn't get over the fact that Jeff had asked me once and I had said yes. Whereas Shane had asked me numerous times and I just couldn't get that word out.

*************

"I'm surprised you didn't want to spend the day with your new fiancé," Shane said stealing a fry off my plate as we sat in a booth at Ruby Tuesdays.

"He wanted to do some brother bonding with Matt before we leave tomorrow. So they're off doing whatever it is that brothers do together," I smiled.

"Ah, so in other words, nothing," Shane said seriously causing me to laugh. "So let me see this ring." I held out my hand and he held it gently. "It's beautiful. I guess it's a good fit for you. Better than any of the ones I got you, huh?"

"Shane, they were all beautiful too. It's just that this one is so simple. And I don't know, it does fit my personality better." I sighed as I picked up a fry and stared at it. "Speaking of those rings, what'd you do with them all?"

He chuckled lightly and shook his head, "One of them I sold on e-bay for some big bucks and gave the money to Make a Wish."

"What'd you sell it as? The ring Mystical Angel shot down from Shane Helms on one of his many proposals?" I laughed.

"Actually, yeah," he smiled.

"Wow, um, okay. So what'd you do with the others then?"

"The others I sold to a pawn shop," he replied.

"I'm sorry Shane," I said shaking my head at myself.

"For?"

"For making you spend all that money on me just to be shot down. And I'm sorry that I always told you no."

"It's okay. Casey, I would have rather taken the chance to be shot down then never to have tried at all. I really loved you more than you can even imagine. And I still do. But I know I'm not who you want. I know you and Jeff are going to be very happy together. The perfect couple, right?"

"Shane, I would have been very happy with you too."

"Maybe so, but that's not to be. So move on. We can't keep dwelling on the past like this."

"Yeah, you're right. I must say though, you were either very stupid for asking me all those times, or you had massive balls," I laughed.

"Yeah, yeah, the joke is always on the little guy," he said as I gave him a sarcastic smirk.

"Little isn't the word I would use," I laughed.

"Wow, I'm not sure whether that's an insult or a compliment."

"Pick one and I'll go with it."

"I'm gonna go with the compliment cause other wise that's gonna hurt my Man Ego."

"You're Man Ego?"

"Yeah, my MAN ego."

"Oh God."

"Yeah, it's been called that too."

"You are UN-FREAKIN-BELIEVABLE!" I laughed.

"I try my hardest," he smiled at me. "So, come up with any plans or anything?"

"Nope, not yet. I think maybe we should have a date first, ya know?"

"Dates help a great deal in a situation like this. You just have to promise me that I'll be invited."

"Well, duh! Shane, if I have anything to say about it, you'll be in it."

"In it?"

"Yeah, we'll make you ring bearer or something," I smiled.

"Yeah, thought so."

"No, seriously, I'll make sure you're one of the ushers."

"Thanks," he said smiling.

"May 1st," I blurted out.

"What?"

"I want the wedding to be on May 1st," I repeated.

"Um, I mean that's great and all, but isn't that cutting it a little close? It's like a month away," Shane said.

"No, not this year. Next year. There's no way in hell I could put together a wedding in a month," I laughed.

"I'm sure it'll be a beautiful date," he smiled.

************

"So, did you and Shane have fun today?" Jeff asked from the bedroom while I brushed my teeth.

"Yeah, we did," I answered between spits.

"What'd you guys do?"

"Just hung out, ate lunch at Ruby Tuesdays, nothing special."

"Oh, what'd you guys talk about?"

"Could you be anymore nosey?"

"Well, as your future husband, I do have certain rights to know these things."

"Yeah, uh-huh, sure ya do!" I laughed as I walked towards the bed.

"So what was the topic of conversation today?"

"We just talked about the wedding, you being gone, and his Man Ego."

"Man Ego?"

"Yeah, don't ask. Ya really don't wanna know," I laughed as I crawled in next to him. I rested my head on his chest and sighed deeply.

"I'm sure I don't." I felt his arms wrap around me tightly as he kissed the top of my head. "This is our last nite together for 2 weeks."

"I know. It's gonna be so weird."

"Well, we never got to commemorate being engaged."

"Um, Jeff, that's why we did the heart."

"I don't mean like that!" he exclaimed flipping me over so he leaned over me. "I mean like this." He gave me a grin and I knew what was coming. I smiled up at him before he turned out the lights.
