Valentine's day was the night that I had planned to pop the question. We went out to dinner at her favorite restaurant, The Outback. We had a wonderful dinner and then went back to her house to watch a movie we had rented. Her parents had come home earlier and watched the movie with us. When the movie had ended she went up to her room for bed. I said that I would be right up. I took that time to ask them for their blessing. They were very excited and gave me their blessing. They thought that we were a perfect match and they had never seen their daughter so happy. I then went up to her room. I was nervous, but had never been more sure of anything in my entire life. I got up to the room, went over to the bed, got down on my knees and pulled out the ring. I then asked, "Will you marry me?" |
