The Perfect Day

I let out a small scream as something warm touched my forehead. My eyes violently opened and I saw my boyfriend of three years holding mistletoe right over us.

"Happy Christmas Eve Sophie darling." Derek smiled at me as he kissed me again.

I playfully slapped Derek on the arm, "how could you scare me like that?! You almost gave me a heart attack!"
"I'm sorry love; I just can't wait to give you your Christmas present. Go and take a shower and get ready then we can go." Derek started to jump up and down, "hurry up!! I have waited way to long to give this to you!!"

I laughed as I stretched before getting up, "I'm going don't rush me!!" I tried running into the bathroom, but since I just woke up I tripped.

Derek laughed as he lay down and closed his eyes.

We were in his car and Derek would not give me the slightest clue to where he was taking me.

"Please Derekkk!! You know I hate surprises!!" I begged.

Derek shook his head, "I am not budging Soph. It's a surprise whether you like it or not."

I stuck my tongue out at him and he laughed.

He turned the car off as we pulled into an outside ice skating rink. "This is part one of your present Sophie. Let's go!"

"This is so cool, I haven't been ice skating since…" I paused to think, "our first date!! Do you remember that?"

"How could I ever forget," he looked into my eyes, "that was the day when someone stole my heart."

I blushed, "so where do we get our skates? I don't have mine."

He patted his book bag with the hand that wasn't holding mine; "well I have your ice skates alone with mine."
"Well aren't you the planner aheader." I laughed

"Planner aheader…? Do I even want to know?"

"I would think that you don't." I laughed.

We sat down on a bench and laced up our skates in a comfortable silence.

"Shall we go to the ice?" Derek asked taking my hands.

"That would be lovely."

I had forgotten how good the ice felt beneath my skates and I stumbled when I got onto the ice. "Has my former ice skate champion left all of her skill at home?"

"No I did not, but it has been two and a half years since I have been on the ice. I need to readjust to it." I quickly found my balance once again and started to skate backwards holding both of Derek's hands.

We skated together for an hour until we both decided that we were too cold to skate anymore.

"If you come sit on the bench I have some very hot hot chocolate with extra mini marshmallows for us."

I smiled, "just the way I like it." I kissed him, "thank you this was perfect."

"Don't thank me yet, your day isn't over yet." He smiled mischievously.

"Another surprise? Derek!!"

"Yes another surprise Sophie do you have a problem with that?"

"I—" I sighed, "no I don't have a problem with that, but I didn't get you anything that could compare to this." I threw my arms out to show the ice rink.

"It doesn't matter Soph. Presents don't mean anything to me as long as I have you."

My heart melted, "aw thanks Derek," I hugged him.

"Here take your hot chocolate," he handed me a steaming cup of hot chocolate.

"Yum just the way I like it, so many mini marshmallows that you can't see the liquid." I smiled.

We drank a few cups of the hot chocolate and then we got back into Derek's car and started driving towards the highway.

"Derek where are we going?"
The mischievous grin returned on his face, "sorry Soph but once again I can't tell you. And you will probably hate me, but I really need to blindfold you. You can't know where we are going." He reached into the book bag that he had been carrying and pulled out one of those eye things that some people wear when they go to bed.

I laughed nervously and took the eye thing. "You aren't going to kill me right? Take me to the docks?"
He laughed at this, "no darling I would never do anything like that to you."

"Okay I trust you," I put the eye thing on.

"Thanks for being such a good sport Sophie. Trust me it would ruin the surprise if you knew where we were going."

After an hour of riding in the car feeling blind Derek finally said, "Sophie you may take off your blindfold." He smiled at me.

I noticed that he had some of my clothes in his hands. "What?"

"I need you to change into these please. There is a restroom in this gas station that we have stopped at."

The expression on my face was very confused, "will I have to put the blindfold on when I get back?"
"You will I'm sorry. But I have a good reason why okay."
I sighed pretending to act annoyed, "fine."

He caught my hand before I left and pulled me back in the car. "Thanks for being a good sport Soph." He kissed me on the lips.

"I will be back, don't leave without me." I winked.

"I am ashamed that you even thought of that idea Sophie Reynolds!!" Derek gasped and his hand went to his chest acting shocked.

I laughed and went into the gas station and got changed.

It was only another twenty minutes before Derek stopped the car once again. "Sophie you can take off the blindfold for good now."

My hands shot to my face and I ripped off the blindfold. It took a minute for my eyes to adjust, but when they did I gasped. The Rockefeller Christmas tree was standing right in front of me. "Oh Derek!!" I threw my arms around him and kissed him.

"I wanted to do something extra special for you and then I remembered that on our first date you said that your ideal Christmas present would be to go to New York City and see the Nutcracker. So here we are," he reached in that book bag once again, "and here are our Nutcracker tickets." He smiled.

"I swear Derek Hopson you are the best boyfriend a girl could wish for. What time is our show at?"

"It's at two so we have about," he checked his watch, "forty five minutes."

"Well do you want to start walking there then?"

"I would love to," he took my hand and started to walk.

"Any idea where it is or how we are supposed to get there?" I asked him.

"Are you doubting my direction skill Sophie?" He eyed me.

"Never," I rolled my eyes and laughed.

When we finally got to the Lincoln Center we only had about ten minutes to spare so we got our programs and sat in our seats. The lights dimmed and the performance started.

When we left the Lincoln Center we went out to eat and while I was sitting in the little deli that we found I couldn't stop smiling. "Derek wasn't that so good!! In my next life I think I'm going to become a dancer. Do you think I could do it?"

"I could see it. Can I be your dance partner?" He winked.

"We should start practicing now." I laughed.

"Just name the time and place and I'll be there babe."

Two hours later we were walking back to the car. "Hey let's go look at the Tree before we leave." Derek suggested.

Strolling over to the Tree Derek looked a little nervous and I was wondering what was up.

We finally reached the Tree and Derek took both of my hands. "Sophie I have known for a while that you are the only person that I want to be with for the rest of my life. Today was one of the best days of my life and I really hope this can be the first of many to come." He got down on one knee, "Sophie Reynolds would you marry me?" He pulled a blue velvet box out of his pocket and opened it up to show the most gorgeous diamond ring that I have ever seen.

Tears were flowing out of my eyes as I pulled him off the ground and kissed him.

"So I am taking that as a yes then?" He smiled at me. He was also a bit teary eyed.

"Yes Derek Hopson I will marry you."

He smiled and put the ring on my left ring finger. "Good." He kissed me again.

All I could see was my boy— wait fiancé—and all I could hear was clapping from random strangers all around us.
