Chapter 30

Half an hour later, they finished eating. Patrick cleared the table and then he walked back out and sat down beside Jessica. Patrick set the little black box in front of her.

"Jess, we've known each other for awhile and when we started dating I was ecstatic. Now I'm ready for something more serious." Patrick said.

"Serious." Jessica replied.

"Yeah." Patrick said.

"Okay." Jessica replied.

"Plain and simple, will you marry me." Patrick asked.

"Before I answer, are you sure this is what you want." Jessica answered.

"Yes, I want to marry you and have kids. So I'm very sure." Patrick said.

"Yes." Jessica replied.

Patrick opened the box and pulled out the Pink Sapphire and Diamond Petite Cathedral engagement ring and slid it on her finger. He then passionately kissed her. When he stopped kissing her, he suggested they head home and she agreed.

"You go ahead, I'm gonna tell your uncle." Patrick said.

They got up and headed inside. Jessica walked through the house while Patrick went to tell her uncle they were leaving. Patrick soon joined her in the living room and they left her uncles. They got into Patrick's car and he drove home.
