Comments welcome!!!!!!

Later, Sara found herself lying wrapped in Nick's arms. She pulled Nick's arm tightly around her waist, never wanting to let him go. Slowly, Nick's eyes fluttered open. "Hey." He said softly.

"Hey." Sara traced her finger along Nick's jawbone.

"So, I guess that whole no sex thing is a bust."

"Yeah."

"Sara, what does this mean for us?"

"It means I miss you so much. It means that my bed doesn't feel right anymore. It means I want you back." She stared at him soulfully.

"I want you back too Sara. I'll never let you go again." Nick hugged her tight.

"Nick, I think we should move in together." Sara shifted slightly. "You know, make the first step towards marriage without actually getting into marriage."

"Oh Sara, you mean that?"

"I wanna move in with you. Your house is bigger, so we should probably move into your house."

"No Sara. Not my house." Nick shook his head. "Our house."

Sara smiled. Their house. Perfect.

The first step turned into the next step, and each step after that, leading up to the day when Nick put his heart on the line. Again.

For the first time in her life, Sara had resisted overtime. She'd even left work a little early. She wanted to be home with Nick. After all, it was the two month anniversary of when they'd gotten back together. Sara pulled her Denali into the driveway. The house was dark. Sara frowned. Nick hadn't forgotten about their anniversary, had he? Sara would kill him. Sara banished the thought from her brain. That wasn't Nick's style at all. She took the stairs two at a time and unlocked the front door. In the middle of the hallway there was an end table with a single candle on it and an envelope laying in front of the candle. Sara saw her name written on the envelope. She opened it and used the candlelight to read it. "What are you doing in the dark? Turn on the lights." It said. Sara laughed and flicked on the lights. Almost instantly her favorite song turned on and Nick stepped out of the bedroom.

"Hey." He stepped closer to her.

"Hey." She too closed the distance between the two of them. "Happy anniversary."

"Happy anniversary baby." Nick and Sara just stood there, staring into each other's eyes.

"Sara, I know it might be too soon, but..." This time Nick was going to do it right. He got down on one knee and gulped. "Sara Sidle, you have the power to bring me joy or make me miserable. With you, I'm the strongest and happiest any man can be. Without you, I don't have a reason to get out of bed. Will you do the honor of making me happy every day for the rest of my life? Will you marry me?"

Sara gasped. She'd sensed it coming, but it was still a shock. This time she knew exactly what her answer should be. "Of course." Tears flowed from her eyes. "Of course I'll marry you."
