This Was His Family

After much deliberation, Scott ended up getting a platinum ring with an oval diamond. It was fairly simple but most of Cherry's jewelry was. He hoped he hadn't screwed up trying to guess because he wanted her to be happy with it.

He thought she might appreciate the sentimentality if he ended up proposing in the elevator where they first kissed so he suggested they utilize their free VIP tickets at that theater and she eagerly agreed, as she always did when he offered for them to go to a show of any kind.

She dressed up for the occasion but still looked mostly like herself. She had been doing that more and more often lately, though she would always love her transformations.

Scott thought she was beautiful no matter what because whatever she did to her eyes, hair, body, or face, her smile was the same. That was one of the things he loved most about her. Cherry was Cherry no matter how dressed up or down she was.
