Timeskip to Michael's birthday

Michael's pov
"Happy birthday to you!happy birthday to you!happy birthday dear Michael!happy birthday to you!"everyone sang,I blushed in embarrassment."blow out the candles dude!"Eddie encouraged,"I think I should let this little lady here do it."i said.Frances looked at me with widened eyes,"ready to blow out the candles Bean?"I asked her.she grinned and clapped,I took a deep breath and blew out the candles with her.everyone clapped and cheered,I smiled.even though I didn't want gifts,everyone got me gifts.

Hallie and Mark got me a Venus flytrap for some odd reason,so I jokingly named it Audrey III

Dave offered me guitar lessons while Jennifer gave me a dvd of my favorite movie

Krist and Shelli told me that they finally bought some farm land and that they're ready to start building

Pearl Jam,Soundgarden,and Alice In Chains gave me the albums I've always wanted

All that was left was Kurt

Kurt's pov
I nervously watched Michael as he happily accepted all of the gifts everyone gave him.the ring I bought rested in my pocket,and I kept nervously checking to see if it was still there."Kurt?are you ok?"Michael asked,snapping me out of my daze."you look a bit nervous."he pointed out,I gulped."I...I guess it's time to give you my gift."i said,Hallie gently took Frances off of Michael's lap and held her in her arms.I took out the letter I was working on last night,"I've been thinking about this decision for a while,"I explained as I opened it."and I really hope you accept it."i said nervously,Michael gave me a confused look.

"Michael Oliver,from the moment I first saw you at that small record shop I felt my heart flutter.and when we first spoke,I felt an instant connection between us.I was nervous to tell you about who I really was because...because I didn't want you to be friends with me just cause I'm the frontman of Nirvana,but you didn't care:because it didn't matter who I was,you just wanted a friend.and for a while,I was that to you.but I couldn't ignore my feelings anymore,they were there when I made my mistakes and lingered when I tried to fix them.when I hired you as Frances' nanny,I'll admit it was only so that we could be able to hang out more.but I just couldn't hold in my feelings anymore,it was too much."

Tears flowed down my cheeks as well as Michael's,the room was silent."I was so worried back then.I was worried about not only my safety,but Frances' and yours as well.you two are the most important people in my life besides Krist and Dave,I don't believe I'd ever make it here if it wasn't for you two."

"Kurt..."Michael trailed off,I've truly left him speechless."It's thanks to you two that I'm alive,and I'm so grateful to have someone as loving and caring as you."I gently folded the letter,"Kurt that was beautiful."Michael said.I got down on one knee in front of him,he widened his eyes."Kurt?"he said in a confused tone,"I never did this with Courtney,so you're my first."i nervously dug into my pocket for the ring and pulled it out,"Michael Anthony Oliver,"I opened the box.everyone,including Michael,gasped.

"Will you marry me?"
