He just glares at me, obviously disagreeing. “Needless to say, I fell in love with you. I fell in love with Gabe and Rachel, and even Kaleigh.” continues, “I want us to be together forever. I want to wake up every morning and see my ring on your finger. I want to go out and hold your hand for everyone to know that you’re mine.” He shakes his head. “I know it sounds silly, but my ring on your finger, the world knowing that you’re all mine, it’s important to me.”
The tear that I blinked back now makes its way down my cheek. “You want me to be yours?” I ask him as he nods his head yes. “Good, because I want you to be mine. I want to see my ring on your finger every morning. I want to see my ring glisten in the sun when you drink coffee at work. I want to see my ring on your finger when we go to hockey games and the other moms all drool over you.” I smile at him. “So, I guess that would be a yes. Yes, I’ll be yours. I’ll be your wife. I’ll be yours forever.” I tell him and in one second, he is off his knee and twirling me in his arms. I laugh out loud while I wrap my arms around his neck, my head leaning against his. He stops and puts me down, taking a blue ring box from his pocket. When he opens the box, the round diamond solitaire sparkles in the candlelight. He grabs my left hand, slipping the ring on my finger. It is a perfect fit.
“She said yes!” he calls out, and I laugh at him before, seemingly out of nowhere, Gabe and Rachel run to us, followed by my mother and father. Noah, Kaleigh, Barbara, and all of our closest friends and family follow them.
I hear congratulations being shouted out while a waiter comes around with glasses of champagne. Austin makes his way back to me with Gabe next to him and Rachel holding his hand, and he raises his glass to toast. “Thank you, everyone, for coming. I would like to toast to my future wife, and to Gabe and Rachel for giving me their permission. Cheers.”
“To tempting the boss,” I say as I raise my glass with a smile for the man who started off as my boss and ended up being the man of my dreams. He leans down and kisses my lips, sealing the deal.
And they lived happily ever after.
