((A continuation of valetines dinner))
Tito POV

  The day has come. We're finishing up a performance. I have everything set up. We finish the last song and, Michael smiled, looking and me and then looking back at our audience. Holy shit, this is happening. Michael gave his little smile and giggled "Thank you all for enjoying the performance! It was really nice of y'all to stay and I hope you enjoyed it. But before we go, may I have a very very special birthday girl come on stage?" He looked around. I laughed.

  Marley was in the front row covering her face. I could faintly hear her shout "Michael no!" She shot me a glare. Michael pouted.. plan B,  me and my other brothers start pressuring her by yelling at her to come up. Michael shook his head "get up girl! Come up here! Come on!" He waved her up. Marley just got on stage "Michael..." she giggled. Michael smiled innocently "We just wanted to sing you happy birthday.." he looked at me and nodded before turning to the rest of my brothers "come onn guys!" They giggled and started singing her happy birthday. I snuck behind her and pulled out the tiny little box holding her ring. I had never been so nervous in my life.

  After they finished singing, Jermaine giggled "Turn around!" He giggled. Marley looked at him "This is suspicious.." she crossed her arms. Michael sighed "Girl, just do it!" He held the bridge of this nose. Marlon nodded "I'll cover his eyes if it makes you feel better." He did a thumbs up. Marley looked at him "okay.. but if there's a clown behind me, I'm not buying you anymore icecream." She looked at them suspiciously. Jermaine peeked behind her "Well, I think he's a clown but, I hope you don't agree-" Michael smacked him in the back of the head "Jermaine, be quiet!" He giggled.

  Marley turned around slowly and I got on one knee. The basic proposal pose. Marley looked at me and gasped quietly, covering her face "Toriano.." she looked at me and that's when I started "Baby, calm down just a little. Okay?" I giggled. "Marley, you make me the happiest I've ever been.. If people were drugs, I'd choose to be addicted to you. I think you are just the sweetest, most gorgeous, awesome-est? Person I've ever met and I would like to ask you Miss Marley Brown, if you'd be my wife and let me change your name to Marley Jackson?" I looked up at her nervously.

  She looked stunned but, happy. "Yes! Yes I would love to marry you. Yes." She gave me a kiss and giggled. Everyone started cheering. I giggled and picked her up, spinning her around before putting the ring on her finger. Michael looked at me and did a thumbs up before going back to his microphone "I would just like to say congratulations to Birthday girl and Toriano." He giggled "We have to go now so, see you all later!" He smiled and we walked off stage. Marley kissed me again and laughed "I love you... I think Marley Jackson sounds nice." She sighed happily "Can we get icecream?" She gave me puppy eyes. I nodded "Of course, Miss Jackson" I made a funny face at her.

  We went to the store and got ice cream and birthday cake. Now we're at her mom's house and as soon as Mrs. Brown saw Marley's ring, she gasped "when did he-" Marley gushed "On stage, after his performance." She giggled and hugged her mom. I put the icecream in the freezer and picked Kylah up "Hey, Tiny!" I held in laughs. She pouted"I'm as tall as Michael... almost!" Ha.. like that means anything "He.. He's tiny too" I let out a chuckle "Kylah don't be mad at me! I got you a bottle of juice.." I pulled out the juice and she smiled "apple juuuice" she grabbed it "Thank you, Tito.." I put her down and she ran off. Marley ran up to me with two bowls of icecream. "Let's sit outside!"

  She giggled and pulled me outside. We sat at the picnic table in her backyard and ate icecream, just talking and laughing. I look at her "do you like the ring?" I smiled excitedly. Marley giggled and nodded "I love it... you're so amazing.." she sighed happily and we ate more icecream. Marley leaned against me and kissed my cheek. "Call over your brothers. I wanna celebrate my birthday with them too." She looked up at me. I nodded and got up "okay. I'll see if Jackie or Jermaine can bring them over."

  Long story short, they did come over. And my sisters. So we're outside, eating cake. Marley looked at everyone else and smiled happily "we've got the cutest brothers and sisters.." she looked at me and smiled, getting all sappy. "Oh, I love you so much Toriano... more than anyone" She giggled. I looked at her and gave her a small smirk "Gimme some sugar!!" I gave her more kisses. Marley giggled and sighed happily "I can't wait to marry you.." she gave me another kiss. A deeper one this time. It was magical. Things like this is why I proposed to her. Whenever we touch, it's like little sparks going off. It's like the world around us disappears and we go from two people to one. And I love it.. I could never love anyone else as much as I love her. I love her so much..
