When Daniel finally stopped the car and let Janet take the blindfold off, she discovered that they were on a promontory that overlooked the city of Colorado Springs. She gasped at the beauty that lay before her. All the lights of the city looked like stars against the darkness that surrounded them in the falling of night.
"Daniel, it's beautiful!" Janet said in awe. "Where are we?"
Daniel smiled at the look of child-like curiosity on Janet's face as she looked up at him. "We are at a very special place for me. This is where I went after we found Sha're, and this is where I went after the whole ordeal with Sara. This ground holds many memories for me, not all good, but all significant."
Janet eased herself into her boyfriend's arms, her mouth capturing his in a passionate lip lock. "We've been through so much in the last eight years," he said after she let him go. "It was only after I thought you had died last year that I realized that if you had died, I would never forgive myself for not letting you know how I feel."
"I know what you mean, Daniel. When you ascended, I lost a part of myself that I was not sure I would ever get back. I was in a daze practically the entire time you were up there. When you came back to us, I saw that as my second chance." Tears started to fill her eyes, "And I almost blew that chance, too."
Daniel pulled Janet back a little so he could look into her face, "Not you, we. We almost blew our second chance to be together. It wasn't your fault that you almost died without either of us telling the other how we felt. It was a mutual choice not to acknowledge it. But I don't ever want to blow a chance to be with you again."
Daniel gracefully got down on one knee and pulled a small ring box out of his pocket. "Janet Fraiser, will you make me the happiest man in the universe and be my wife?"
He opened the box to reveal a ring made out of Trinium with a moderately sized tear shaped diamond in the center. Flanking the diamond on either side were two smaller tear cut sapphires.
"Yes, I will," was all the doctor could say as her new fiancée took the ring out of the box and slid it smoothly onto her finger. Upon closer inspection, she could see that there were small symbols etched into the Trinium. "Daniel, this looks like Ancient."
He smiled, "It is. I wanted to have an inscription on the ring that was special. It was going to be either Ancient or Latin. I thought that Ancient would be more romantic."
Janet pulled Daniel to his feet and gave him another passionate kiss. When they broke apart for lack of oxygen she asked him, "What does it say?"
"It says, 'Death cannot stop true love. All it can do is delay it for a while.' I thought it captured everything we've been through. After all, you've had to wait for me to come back from the dead more than once."
Janet smiled happily through the tears in her eyes, "I love you so much, Daniel."
"I love you too, Janet."
This time, they forwent the preliminary kiss and got in the back of Daniel's car, where he had folded down the back seat. It truly was a night to remember for both of them.
Meanwhile, back at the house, Cassie had gotten her wish. After the movie ended, Alex pulled out a box of his own.
"Cassie," he started. "I know that we're defiantly not ready to get married, but I wanted to be sure that someday we will." He opened the midnight blue box to reveal a gold eternity ring with a square cut ruby surrounded by circular diamonds. He carefully took it out as he continued, "This is the ring that my great-grandfather proposed to my great-grandmother with. Ever since then it has been passed down to the oldest child. My mother gave it to me last month. She told me to give it to the girl who had captured my heart."
He slipped it on to Cassie's willing finger, "That's why I'm giving it to you. You captured my heart and soul the first time I laid eyes on you." He paused, taking Cassie's left hand in both of his, "Cassie, will you marry me?"
Cassie smiled broadly, "Someday, yes I will." They kissed passionately, unaware that Martha and Jessie were quietly slipping out to the backyard to leave the two alone.
When they finally pulled apart, they kept in close contact, "Someday, of course being when both of us have finished college and are ready for marriage," Alex said.
"Of course."
They kissed again. Cassie's mind turning to the ring on her finger, the ring that was most definitely on her mother's finger and the shock that Jack would be getting right about now. This most definitely was a night to remember.
