After having an incredible meal, the two made their way back to Jack's car. After making sure Sam was in, Jack strolled over to his side and hopped in.
There were a few minutes of comfortable silence before Jack decided it was now or never.
"Sam, would you like to come back to my place? There's something we need to discuss."
"Sure. What is it?"
"I can't tell you just yet. It's a surprise."
"I see. So, is the surprise good?"
"Maybe. You'll find out in a little bit won't you?"
"You are just so cruel!"
"What can I say? It's my middle name."
Sam just smiled and shook her head. She loved this playful side that had come out of him when they started dating.
About fifteen minutes later, they pulled up outside his house, and they slowly made their way inside.
After putting their coats on the rack, Jack escorted Sam into the den.
There were red roses placed everywhere. Sam gasped when she saw them. Her eyes took in the number of vases and figured that there had to be at least twelve dozen of them. Not to mention the fact that there had to be at least thirty lit candles placed at various locations in the room.
"Have a seat."
"Jack? What's all this?"
"Would you like something to drink? I've got champagne."
"That sounds good. But what about..."
She wasn't allowed to continue as he pushed her gently down onto the sofa and made his exit.
He came back a few minutes later carrying two glasses of the bubbly liquid. He handed one to her before sitting across from her on the coffee table, allowing them to gaze into each other's eyes.
"Sam, there's a reason I asked you here tonight."
"What is it?"
"Will you marry me?"

Can I be any crueler to you all?
