The Proposal.

Lucas was at a loss for words. He had imagined all kinds of things happening to them tonight, but a marriage proposal was at the bottom of his list.

He looked at her and saw that she was very nervous about everything. It was no wonder she drank so much before mustering up enough courage to propose to him. He looked at her and a bright smile appeared on his face. Unlike her, who had been sceptical and hesitant, Lucas was very sure of himself.

He wanted to marry her in less than three months of knowing her. After being denied a few times, he thought that it would be better to cater to her own pace. If he was being too fast, it was better to slow down to his pace to match hers. That was why he had told her that when she was ready, she should let him know.

"Should we go register tomorrow?" he asked her as he held her tightly.

"Is that a yes?" Jen asked him as she held his face in her hands.
