Then we're done
Ten Weeks Later
Natalia smiled and held up her hand so the light danced off her new ring. She leaned across the restaurant table and kissed Ryan.
"Yes a thousand times!" she quietly exclaimed, "Yes, Ryan Wolfe, I will marry you!"
Ryan smiled and gently kissed her again. "Good, because I would look like such an idiot if you said no. Excuse me for a moment," he said as he stood from the table.
"Nervous bladder?" Natalia giggled.
"Just a lot," Ryan chuckled back as he walked from the table.
Ryan approached the men's restroom to discover it was a single unit. He knocked and heard a voice within. He waited outside as he listened to the other person wash their hands. The door opened and Horatio nearly stumbled over him in shock.
"Ryan," he managed, "What are you doing here?"
"Oh, Natalia and I were just having dinner together," Ryan explained, "And I needed to use the restroom so I figured it would be better to piss in the toilet than at the table. I mean, she might not want to marry me anymore if I did that."
A weak smile played across Horatio's face at the news of Ryan's engagement. "You asked her tonight?"
"Yeah," Ryan smiled, "And she said yes."
"Good, that's good," Horatio said as he slowly nodded his head. "Well congratulations."
"You seem upset," Ryan quietly said. "Is something wrong?"
"No," Horatio shook his head, "No, nothing's wrong."
Ryan looked deep into Horatio's eyes. He could see what Horatio was feeling but refused to say. He knew what it meant, because it was also what he felt.
Ryan slowly guided Horatio back through the bathroom door and shut and locked the door behind him. He kissed Horatio passionately as Horatio's hands wandered across Ryan's body.
"I thought last time was the last time," Horatio whispered as Ryan tugged his pants open.
"I thought it was, too," Ryan quietly said, "But I want you one more time. Then we're done."
