It's hereeeeeee! This is the final chapter for this part! I really hope you all enjoyed this story as much as I did, bringing the characters to life. Jay and Olivia's story will continue, so once I have a couple chapters of the next part down, I'll start posting those. Thanks again!

She looked stunningly radiant, but then again he always thought she did. Jay extended his hand to her and helped her out of the town car that Voight had sent for them. Her rose gold metallic pumps stood out beautifully against the black, high neck dress that had a small train and a killer slit on the side that almost came to the top of her thigh. Her curly hair a bit messier now than when they left, seeing as he could't keep his hands out of it as the fooled around in the car on the drive over. She looped her arm through his and they headed inside. They met up with their friends and Olivia went to dance while Jay headed to the bar.

"So is operation Olivia Halstead a go then?" Will asked.

Jay blew out a nervous breath.

"If all goes a planned." He responded, downing a shot.

"I'm proud of you brother." Will said patting his shoulder.

"Don't get too excited, nothing official yet."

"But it will be. There's no way- and uh, thats how I got a marble out of a kids nose."

Jay gave Will a confused look and second later he felt arms wrap around his middle.

"Come dance with me."

"You know I hate to dance Livi."

"What fun is a party, if you don't dance?"

"The open bar."

"Okay, I'll give you that. But, I love this song, and it's slow and sexy and meant for couples. I don't want to have to find some random person to dance with."

"Yeah, that's not happening."

Jay tossed back another shot and brought her onto the dance floor. He noticed there were only a few other couple dancing.

"I don't think anyone likes this music too much."

"That's because they either don't know it or don't understand it."

"It's ballet music. Just a bunch of instruments playing."

They swayed around the floor effortlessly.

"I don't know, maybe it's because I took ballet for like 20 years, I just find it so soothing."

Jay spun her out then in.

"You took ballet?"

"And tap, and jazz, and lyrical."

"How did I not know that?" He asked.

"Because I left that part of my life behind."

"Do you miss it?"

"Oh of course, but I got hurt so I had to stop. And I'm not nearly as flexible as I used to be."

Jay dipped her back.

"From what I've seen, you're pretty flexible."

Olivia rolled her eyes.

"Spin me out then in. I'm gonna hook my right leg over your left hip. then step out with your left foot a bit and dip me back, but swoop me from left to right. But pull me up slowly. Take your left hand and run it up my leg from my calf to the top of my thigh, up my back to the top of my neck. There's a slow sexy part to the song coming up."

He did exactly what she said, and at the end of it he leaned in to kiss her. It felt like the room had been set on fire. The heat between the seemed to radiant off of them, and Jay wanted nothing more than to find the nearest empty closet and ravish her. People around them clapped and Jay awkwardly smiled as Olivia slightly curtsied and bowed her head.

"That was an extreme turn on." Jay said.

"Oh, so you do like to dance."

"Like that, with you, yes."

"Maybe we should do more of it at home." she suggested.

"I say left find and empty space and practice."

Olivia laughed.

"Let's go find our friends and drink."

With minutes left till the New Year, everyone crowded the dance floor. Jay wrapped his arms around Olivia from behind and rested his chin on her shoulder. Content, she placed her hands over his and leaned back into him. Hank gave Jay a subtle nod.

"It's been a hell of a year, hasn't it?" Jay asked.

"That it has, but it's had it's really good moments."

"Spare some time for one more?" He asked.

"Sure."

"Come outside with me."

"Jay, it's freezing out there, and it's almost midnight."

"Do you trust me?"

"Always." She responded.

He led her out to the back patio that had been beautifully decorated with lit candles, twinkling fairy lights and all of her favorite flowers. Large space heaters around them, kept them warm. Jay took her left hand and rubbed the back of it with his thumb.

"I've been thinking about this moment for a long time, so you can't interrupt me or distract me." Jay admitted.

"Uh, okay?"

"The second you came barreling into my life, some where deep down, I think I knew I'd marry you. You made my life bright again after so much darkness. The night we met you had me instantly captivated. Your laugh, the way you instantly got along with my friends, it sparked something. Then you met my family and it was like you'd known them all your life. Every moment I wasn't with you, I wanted to be. And every second we were together was never enough. The night you went missing, was the worst time of my life. I'm a cop for christ sake, you should always be safe, and in that moment, I had failed you. But I knew, I always knew deep down, I'd find you, whatever it took, I'd get you back. I could feel it in my bones, that you were still alive. Then when we found you and I kissed you, it was like every moment, every memory, every feeling I'd ever had when I was with you was exploding in my head and sending fire through my veins. But when you said you couldn't remember anything about us...about me, I was so angry that I had blown my chance. But we got a chance to rewrite our story, we made it happen. I love falling asleep next to you every night and waking up to you every morning. I love that you need to kiss my goodbye every day and tell me to be safe and come home to you. I want you to be the mother of my kids, be there every night when I come home after having a rough day, because I know you'll make it all better. It will always be you Olivia, it's always been you.' Jay got down on one knee and popped open the small velvet box, 'So, Olivia McKnight, will you marry me?"

Olivia gasped and her eyes filled with tears. He was really doing this. Fireworks lit up the sky around them. She couldn't believe this was happening. Was she ready for this? To make it all official, to take the next step? It felt like she was standing on the ledge at the top of a building, waiting to fall, scared to fall. But Jay would be there to catch her, he always would be. All she had to do was jump
