Ok. Probably last festive romance ask, but don't quote me on that, because I love romance too much. Blame this on my dreams. Reyn proposes to Sharla with a Christmas gift.
Sharla had noticed that Reyn was nervous tonight, but she’d put it down as chritmas anxiety. The two were having a small celebration between the two of them before the party with everyone else, and they’d just come home from a a really nice dinner at a fancy restaurant.Â
They’d decided to watch some movies on television while cuddling together under a warm blanket.Â
They’d gotten eachtoehr some chocolate, which was the present they’d gotten. They’d agreed the bigger presents would be the next day at the actual party. Reyn, however, had other plans.Â
He’d hidden a small box in the chritmas tree of their appartement. When she went to the bathroom between movies, he got up to go get it. He could feel his heart beating out of his chest. He put himself back on the couch and under the covers, holding the box tightly.Â
“Sharla, what day are are we again?” he asked as the movie started.Â
She laughed, music to his ears, “December 24th, duh.”
“So we could say that today, december 24th, is the day I asked you to marry me?” He pulled the box out and opened it.Â
She looked at him. “Reyn...”Â
“Will you marry me?”Â
She jumped into his arms and kissed him, answering when she pulled back. “Of course, I love you.”
“I love you too,” he said, giving her another kiss.Â
He carefully took her hand and put the ring on her. It was a simple silver ring, but he knew she’d wanted a simple ring rather than one that was really over the top.Â
They spent the rest of the night watching movies in eachother’s arms, eventually falling asleep in the middle of one.Â
