You have my heart

The strands in your eyes

That colour them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath.
Emeralds from mountains thrust toward the sky
Never revealing their depth.
Tell me that we belong together,
Dress it up with the trappings of love.
I'll be captivated;
I'll hang from your lips,
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above. I'll Be – Edwin Mc Cain

Dinner was going well, no small talk but proper conversations about their lives. House was slowly building up the courage to ask her, the ring idle in his pant pocket. Cameron had seen the lump in his pocket and his heart skipped a beat until she looked away and he became aware that she thought it was just his Vicodin. He had it all set out in his mind, but whether the actual event went the same way was another thing. A waiter approached the table and smiled at House, he placed a single plate in front of Allison; it was covered with a silver bowl. He rose from his seat cane in hand; House removed the silver cover to reveal a corsage exactly the same as the one he had given her on their first date. He hooked his cane to his pocket and attached the corsage to Allison's dress, a tear rolled down her cheek. "oh don't be a sook", he teased as he ran his finger up her cheek catching the tear. At this Cameron laughed.

Suddenly House fell to one knee, knowing that Cameron would turn to face him he straightened up and looked deep into her eyes. His hand plummeted into his pocket and pulled out a small black box, Cameron's eyes flickered between Houses face and the box in his hand. " Some time ago I had the opportunity to have your heart but I was an idiot, but time has made me wiser and less of a jerk. You mean the world to me and I want to prove that to you, Allison Cameron you have my heart. Can I have your hand in marriage?". Cameron hadn't expected this, she thought it was odd when he fell but she just thought that he was mucking around trying to look up her dress. He didn't lessen the stare between them, but after her prolonged silence he took the hint. House stood up, his face now disappointed as he picked up his cane and went to turn away Cameron gripped his arm and spun him around, their eyes met immediately and she kissed him. She removed her mouth from his tears now coated her cheeks she placed her forehead against his, both of them had their eyes closed. "You have made me the happiest woman in the world Gregory House, of course I will marry you".
