Chapter Six: A Proposal
Sara stopped and stared at her door. As she was putting her key in she noticed a rose taped to the door. She plucked it off and took it inside with her.
"Oh my God." Sara muttered, looking around. There were rose petals everywhere and she had a very good idea who did this. Sara walked into her bedroom and stopped short. The lights were all off and the only way you could see was from the soft glow of the candles burning around the room. There was a bouquet of roses lying on her pillow along with the other rose petals scattered around her white room. Sara looked around, hoping to see someone.
"Nick"
"I'm right here." He smiled, coming out of the walk-in closet. "Happy Anniversary."
"Happy Anniversary. You did all of this?" Sara asked, a soft smile on her face. Nick nodded and kissed her gently.
"Are you going to get those?" he asked, nodding over to the bouquet. Sara nodded and picked them up, revealing a small box under all the flowers. Sara felt her heart stop beating for a second until Nick walked over and picked up the box.
"Nicky"
"Sara, I love you so much. I don't think I'd be able to live another day if I didn't have you at my side." he started, looking straight into her eyes. A tear rolled down Sara's cheek as Nick got down on one knee and opened the box in his hand to show her a diamond ring. "Will you marry me?"
"Yes." Sara whispered. Nick smiled as he slipped the ring onto Sara's finger. He stood back up and smiled at her.
"Don't cry." He said, wiping Sara's tears away.
"I can't help it." She laughed. "I'm so happy. Is this why you took today off? To do all this?"
"Yeah. I thought it'd be romantic." Nick replied, resting his forehead against Sara's.
"Well it is." She said. "I love you."
"I love you too. Happy Anniversary." Nick smiled, kissing her.
A/N: Awwâ now that was a sweet ending. Everyone knows what happensâ so I don't think I have to continue. Unless you want me too.
