Johnnys Pov
I'm am sweating like a pig as I look in the mirror. I'm getting ready for college graduation. I've made it so far and I couldn't be more lucky to have Abby by my side. We broke up once during senior year because I was stupid but I won her back. Now we're here getting ready for graduation.
We both got accepted into the same universities. It was a struggle but we managed to stay together throughout the 4 years of college. Putting on the cap and gown I go to my nightstand table and pull out the velvet box. I stick it in my pocket and head to the living room. Me and Abby ended up renting an apartment the last year of college so we could have more room for our stuff.
When I walk into the living room I see Abby on the couch watching a movie. To anyone she would look calm but I see the was her leg is bouncing as she sits there. I walk over to her and sit by her, putting my hand on the thigh to help calm her nerves.
"You got this babe, you have nothing to worry about. You deserve this." A few years into college she finally told me about her childhood and all the bad things that happened. I finally realized why what I did during senior year pissed her off so much. I felt so bad and ever since then I try to make sure she knows she's deserving of the good things. "You have made it so far Abby. I'm so so proud of you" I give her a reassuring smile kiss her cheek.
I stand and extend my hand for her to grab. She grabs it willingly and I pull her up. "You ready" I ask and she nods with a little more confidence than she had before. I kiss her one last time before we head out the door. We walk down the hallway and out the front doors of the apartment building, heading for our car. I hold open the passenger seat door for her and she sits down. I jog over to the drivers side and jump into the car. I put the keys in the ignition and back out of the parking spot.
We only had to drive about 10 minutes before we arrived at the auditorium. When we enter the building she goes to the girls side to finish getting and I head to the guys side. There I see Noah. We do the bro handshake thing and start talking about random things.
After a few minutes the director tells us to head into the auditorium and take our seats. The Dean makes his way up to stage. He says a little speech before he began calling names. When Abby's name is called I go crazy. I clap and yell "That's my girlfriend!!" She smiles at the crowd and shakes the deans hand.
After my name is called I do the same and head back to my seat. When I get back to my seat my leg starts bouncing in anticipation. I'm ready for graduation to be over. I want to ask Abby the most important question I can ask. I'm gonna ask her to marry me.
2 hours later all the names are finally called and we are dismissed to leave and do whatever. A big group of people make plans to go to dinner and celebrate. Me and Abby join them obviously. Throughout the whole dinner I couldn't keep my leg still. As they were talking about the good times they had during college my leg would bounce. Through all the convos of random topics my leg would bounce.
Abby seems to notice and looks at me with a questioning expression. I shake my head and act as if everything is okay. As if everything wasn't going to change after tonight. We were at the restaurant for a good 2 hours but after everyone decided they had enough of talking we all went home.
During the drive to the apartment building my hands would drum nervously against the wheel. She assumed it was too the music so I wasn't questioned. Before we left this morning I set a scene up on the balcony. It was a struggle to keep her off of it but I succeeded and she still has no idea.
I'm going to take her out there using the excuse of looking at the stars. She loved watching the stars. She loves the sky. She sees beauty in it, just as I see beauty in her.
Walking into our apartment we go to the bedroom and change into more comfortable clothes. She always said how she wanted a chill proposal. She never wanted anything big and extravagant. She wanted it private and intimate. I'm hoping what I planned is enough for her.
As we walk out the room I put the idea of looking up at the sky in her head. She agrees and we walk slowly to the balcony. The velvet box in my pocket feeling heavier now that the moment is getting closer. I open the balcony doors and she sees the rose petals.
She gasps and acts as though it's normal to have rose petals on the balcony. When we are fully stepped outside I get on one knee and wait for her to turn to me. When she does her hands go up to her mouth and her eyes start to water.
"Abigail Rana Richards" I have to stop because my words are caught in my throat. My eyes are watering. "I have loved you since the day you asked me that favor. The day you made a man's dream come true. You are my definition of perfection. I love you and everything that you do. Every little thing you do. You have absorbed my every thought and action. You are all I can think about. Abby will you make me the happiest man alive and marry me?" Now all I can do is stare at her until she answers.
She takes a minute but she eventually gets ahold of herself and answers me. "Yes!" I stand up and she jumps into my arms. I hold her and kiss her. This doesn't feel real. She is now officially mine. Now and forever.
Abby, I can't wait to spend my life with you. I love you, Always and forever.
