her right this second; makes the moment absolutely perfect.
I pull Mira by the hand into the kitchen and sit her down at the table. She looks around the kitchen, awestruck. I quickly plate the bacon and eggs that might be a little cold, but I’ll make her understand the significance.
Sitting the plate in front of Mira, she stares at the plate and then looks into my eyes. I’m catching her off guard and I love it. The look of surprise on her face is exactly what I want. It’s now or never man.
I pat my pocket to make sure I have the ring. Felling the hard, small box in my jeans pocket, I reach in and pull it out as I sink down to one knee. The moisture starting to pool in her emerald green eyes tells me I’m about to make this woman my fiancé.
“Mira Rae Anderson, when I met you almost four years ago, I knew there was something special about you. You changed my life and didn’t even know it. I was the guy that never got the girl, the guy that always stood in the shadows, the guy that always wanted but never got. You changed that. You chose me to be your boyfriend. You have made me the happiest man on the planet. Getting to know you every day and learn all your little quirks has been so exciting. That morning, at my mom’s, when you were making breakfast, I knew you were the woman I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. I had images of you cooking breakfast for our children on Christmas and the need to propose to you right then and there scared me a little. I didn’t want to scare you off. It’s only been two years, but we were so young. College has been an amazing experience, mostly because you’ve been by my side, my partner. I want to graduate with you and start a life with you. When it’s time for us to grow up and move on from this experience, I want you by my side. I want you to be my wife. With that being said, Mira, I love you with every fiber of my being and want nothing more than to be your husband. Will you marry me?”
The tears are falling from her eyes at record pace. She pulls her hand up to cover her mouth. She keeps darting her eyes between mine and the ring in my hand. Her silence is killing me. My knee is starting to hurt, kneeling on the hard linoleum floor, waiting for her answer, when she finally breaks the silence.
“Danny, oh my God, I didn’t expect this. You’re so great with surprises and that’s one of the reasons that I love you. You’re the perfect boyfriend. You are always making me smile and making me remember the reasons why I love you. I would love nothing more than to be your wife. Actually, no, I would be proud to be your wife. This is the perfect graduation present. Yes! Yes! Yes! I’ll marry you!”
I wrap her in the tightest hug I have ever given her, picking her up from the chair and spinning her around in the kitchen. I have never been happier in all of my life. This one girl has the ability to take a broken boy, who’s missing his father and the life he used to have, and turn him into a man that loves beyond measure.
“ You’re it for me, Pea, I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with you. We’re going to be so disgustingly happy, our friends are going to hate us .”
“Don’t I know it! I already see the girls making faces when we’re together. This is going to push them over the edge,” Mira teases, “Do you think we should make a group announcement? Head out on Saturday night, like usual, then BAM, look at my ring, we’re getting married.”
Mira sits in the chair, grinning like a little girl who got a pony for her birthday, staring at the ring I placed on her ring finger. Watching her admire her engagement ring is doing crazy things to my heart.
“We can do it however you want, Pea, as long as you promise me forever and always. ”
“I’m yours as long as you will have me,” Mira says, staring deep into my eyes, touching my soul.
