"Wait what?" Veronica asked.

"I'm gonna ask Roger to marry me."

"Why now when he's not home?"

"Because I have to. If I don't do this now, I'll lose him forever," you said rapidly blinking away the urge to cry.

"Ok, what's going on?"

You told Veronica everything. 

She knew about your vision issues and stuff but you told her about the fight with Roger. What he said, what you said. You told her why you had to do this.

"Where is he?" she asked after all her questions of the fight ran out. 

"The park," you told her as she turned right onto the street you had your first date with Roger on.

"Go straight ahead, to the path, turn right, then a left at the group of trees. There will be a hollowed-out tree, walk through that and walk North you will soon see Roger." You remembered it so clearly. 

"Thank you, I'll call you tomorrow."

"I better hear every detail," Leah said. 

"I promise." You said as you shut the door. 

"Lovey," Leah called, rolling down the window. "Yes?"

"Please be careful," she said. 

"I can take care of myself," you said.

What were you doing? What was he gonna say? What if he thought you were doing this out of pity. 

You were scared, what would you say and he was only minutes away. 10 at the most.

Right there sitting in the grass by himself probably strumming his guitar. 

You remembered showing up at the hill seeing him and knowing, deep down you loved him. 

You always have you always will. Funny the first date, would you consider it a first? You already have sex and made out with him?

"Hello, I was informed to meet her?" you said flirtily. It was dumb. A dumb thing to say. 

Add it to the list.

"Oh really?" he said. 

You remembered sitting down next to him on the blue blanket. It was so nice at that time. 

Maybe it was him. Maybe loving him put you at risk? Maybe your Great Great Great Great Great Grandma made a deal with the devil to make sure her Great Great Great Great Great granddaughter could never love. 

The fainting did start when you saw Roger. 

You had loved Sam. You loved Kai before him in high school. 

Maybe it was you. 

Don't blame it on Roger. 

He didn't do anything and you broke his heart. 

His heart you loved so much. You everything about him. His hair, his face, his chest and arms, his legs, his fashion, his friends, his dic-

"Y/N we are here." Veronica sucked you out of your thoughts. 

"Y/N is everything ok? Are you getting cold feet?"

"I'm ok. Thank you. I'll be out in 10 minutes." 

You had a plan. Go up there, tell Roger-what were you gonna tell Roger. 

"Hey look I love you so wanna get married." 

Dumb. 

"Roger I love you. I love you even if i was blind and deaf." 

How original.

"I'll be waiting!" 

How stupid, you were proposing with a ring he bought for you. It wasn't like he would wear the diamond ring. 

You stepped out, burying the box in your pocket. 

You marched into the park, you knew the way. 

You memorized it. You saw the group of trees, took a deep inhale ready to see Roger as you turned the corner and up the hill. 

But there was no Roger. 

There was another couple on a picnic. 

"I'm sorry I didn't mean to disturb you, I just got lost." 

They look at you. 

You nodded and head back down. 

Where was he? Where was Roger?
