Chapter 127

*14th February 2007* Mike: Today on valentines day I was going to propose to Britt... I've been thinking about how to do this for months. I had rented a private dinner for us on a yacht... just the two of us, the beautiful sea and lots of flowers and candles. Is there anything more romantic than a candlelight dinner? I guess No!! I wanted everything to be perfect. Britt doesn't know exactly what we're going to do today, she lets herself be surprised. At the end of our trip, and after she hopefully said yes, we will go over to a party that our friends made for us... I knew that the day would be unforgettable. Only two things were missing. My best friends weren't there... I had lost the hope that Billie would come over, but Tre? It hurts that he missed this important day too... I tried not to think about it anymore and just concentrated on my future wife. "Where are you taking me?" she asked with a laugh as I helped her with blindfolded eyes onto the yacht. After a few meters I took the cloth away... "woooah," was the only thing that got out of her. She stood there frozen and could hardly believe it. It was in the middle of the night, the yacht were covered with colorful candles and flowers... It couldn't have been more romantic. In the middle there was a table for two. I helped her in the chair, and we ate comfortably. It was just perfect... I could have listened to her voice all day. When we just had dessert, and she was biting into the cake, she noticed that she was chewing on something hard... She took the ring out of her mouth and looked at me in amazement. It was a silver ring with a precious red diamond... I knelt down on my knees and said, "Britt, I've loved you for so long. I don't want to spend a single day without you... Words can't describe how happy and completed I have felt since you walked into my life... Do you want to be my wife?" Britt was still in shock but then shouted tearfully "Yes, yes I do!!" "She said yes!!" Jason screamed as the yacht passed the house... Everyone cheered and clapped. This moment couldn't have been more beautiful... She just made me the happiest man in the world by saying yes. The only thing missing were my best friends...
