"There's one thing left to do…say you will…..Marry me"-Train
It had been 18 months since their relationship crossed the line of 'just friends'. He had known her for almost 4 years now. Three weeks ago he finally got up the nerve to fully commit to his plan. After talking to Taylor and her Joss's mother he was going to propose to her. With Taylor's help he was able to find out her ring size without her knowing. It took him 13 days to find the perfect ring.
The woman at the counter showed him the final purchase, which was a 4.55ct oval cut diamond on a platinum band. After he approved it she put it into a black velvet ring box and placed the ring box into the company's signature 'little blue box' and wrapped it in a white ribbon. The woman told him whoever he was about to pop the question to was a lucky woman. He shook his head and told her that if she said yes, it was going to be him who was the lucky one.
He made his way out of the store and looked at his watch he still had a few hours to get ready and dressed. Tonight they were going out to dinner, then the opera and then he was going to ask her the big questions. He had decided after and even during the HR mess that they might not get a tomorrow. He was tired of waiting and he couldn't live with himself if he let what they had slip through his figures.
Tonight he was going to get down on one knee and he'd ask her to marry him, if she said yes, he was going to make it his mission for the rest of his life to make every minute of every day with her count. If she said yes he was going to truly be a happy man. He sat down on the foot of his bed next to his tuxedo and held the box in his hand. He really hopes she will say yes tonight.
