‘I belong to you now’

That’s the first sound that greets your hearing, muffled behind your apartment door that you share with your love.

Momentarily confused, your hand stops its journey to the door handle. Shay was suppose to land tomorrow morning. You had already planned an entire day of pampering her, the woman who so absolutely had you unraveled. Three weeks away had been torturous.

Or was it a burgular?

No burglar would play your song while looting your place. No, it wasn’t a thief, or maybe she was. After all Shay had stolen your heart from the first moment you kissed, hadn’t she?

You open the door in a hurry, arms yearning to hold her, lips blazing to kiss her, eyes searching.

‘I know I could be spending a little too much time with you’

Brandi’s voice heavy with emotion playing in the background as your feet hurriedly carry you to the living room. There she was, sitting crossed legged in the middle of the glam that you had bought together in Tehran. You stop in your tracks, involuntarily. Shay always made time stop around you.

The room was lit with candles around, giving an ethereal glow to her already Godly beauty. She has a soft smile on her face as she looks at you like you consume her.

You get that. The feeling of it all. Where you completely belong to another.

‘If I had all my yesterdays, I’d give them to you too’

Her eyes glisten with tears filling up, but you know they aren’t of grief, rather love.

‘Marry me.’

You gasp.

‘What?’

Yes. You mean yes. It’s been yes for you for a long time now.

She smiles through her tears, understanding your overwhelmed state. After all, she felt it too.

‘Marry me, baby.’

You smile so wide. Tears now freely falling down both of your faces. She reaches for you, arms stretched out. You rush into her, straddling her lap as she buries her face in your neck. You kiss on every part of her that your lips can find, whispering yes over and over. It’s always been yes for you.

3 months of planning. 3 ring changes. About 5 location choices. A gazillion outfit changes. So many stressed nights cause I couldn’t talk to my other half about the most important thing going on in my life at the time! Allllll so f*cking worth the smile on her face.

Rubie and I met 12/20/14 and went on our first date on 12/23/14. 12/23/18, 4 years after our first date, I asked my best friend to spend the rest of her life with me ♥️ ..in front of our families and some of our closest friends. Nervous would be an understatement to how I was feeling but I could not be more overjoyed with the outcome.

I have always said I would never ever EVER propose to anyone.... jokes on me 😅

But that’s why this was so so perfect. I knew that Rubie wouldn’t expect me to propose to her in a million years. I remember her telling me I was “crushing her girl dreams” by telling her I would never propose. & if proposing would make my love happy then happy she will be 💛✨

Thank you for making me a better person day in and day out. For pushing me to strive for more always. & for loving me even when I’m much more than a handful. I am eternally greateful for the woman I am when I am with you. I plan to love you every day for the rest of our lives. 💍 #SHESAIDYES
