after we were done eating, we put our dishes in the sink and sprinted upstairs. 15 minutes later we were both dressed. i wore a cute suit and so did sarah. i wasn't much of a dress person and either was she.

we walked downstairs hand in hand. once sarah picked up her keys and unlocked the door, we both walked outside.

the cold january air brushed over my skin causing a shiver to run down my spine when i heard sarah say "cmon!! we don't have all day, you know?!"

i laughed at her words as i got into the passengers seat and buckled up. "buckle up, sarah" i said teasingly.

"fine, fine" she said rolling her eyes. after she buckled up, she started the car which made me jump slightly.

time skip: 15 minutes

we arrived at a fancy restaurant and got out of the car. we walked (once again), hand in hand to the door.

sarah, being the woman she is, opened the door for me. i gave her a wide smile and kissed her lips as i walked inside.

the waitress asked if we had a reservation and sarah said, "paulson, table of two, thank you." the waitress smiled wide and told us to follow her, so we did.

when we sat down we decided to order our drinks already. "two tequilas, please!" sarah said. "thank you" i said softly, from my social anxiety.

the waitress walked off and sarah spoke, "love, you don't need to be scared. it's okay, you're safe." i replied, "i know, i know. i just get all anxious... and basically forget how to speak."

"it's okay, i understand." she said, giving me a kiss on the cheek. the waitress came back and handed us our drinks. "thank you, miss." we both said.

the waitress said you're welcome and asked if we were ready to order. "uhh.. i-i'll have t-the steak. medium rare p-please!" i said trying to calm down.

sarah ordered the same thing basically since we both liked the same things.

time skip: 25 minutes

we started playing rock, paper, scissors since we got bored and had some funny convos. plus deciding what to do after we left the restaurant. we both decided to just go around LA and do whatever seemed fun.

time skip: 5 minutes

FINALLY, we got our food. it felt like eternity because people kept recognizing sarah and were like "yOurE gaY?" god i hate people.

we both said thank you and started eating. "this is the best steak i've ever had, woah" i said with a giggle. "i'm glad you like it" sarah said.

sarah tipped 25% and paid before hand, which wasn't a bad thing. we walked outside to see some paparazzi trying to take our, mainly sarah's, photo(s).

we started speed walking and immediately got in the car. we proceeded to leave the parking lot as quickly as possible and drove to a secluded area that only sarah and i really went to.

when we got out, i saw our spot was a bit more decorated than it'd normally be. i thought nothing of it since it was my birthday... obviously-

i sat down and sighed with content. "thank you, sarah. this has been the best birthday ever." i said with a big smile. "you're very welcome. you deserve this" sarah said happily.

i sat up slowly and decided to stand up. by the time i had turned around, she was on one knee.

"i'm not super good with words, even if i'm an actor. cordelia, i love you with all of me. and, truthfully, i want to spend the rest of my life with you. you are the one who has the key to my heart. you're my shoulder to cry on, and just the overall person to be there for me. i don't really know what to say, so i'm hoping my actions will speak louder than my words. but cordelia, will you be my wife?" she said with a wide smile and tears of happiness wanting to fall.

"i-i do. i want to be your wife forever." i said with a smile, engulfing her into a big hug. "i love you so much. thank you" i said between kisses. "i love you way more. you're so so welcome." she said between kisses as well.

"i hope you're okay with the fact billie recorded all of this" she said laughing.
