Rosie POV

As I get to my house I hear another car pull in behind me, I turn and see Henry jogging over to me.
"Henry? What..."
Before I can finish he cups my cheeks and pulls me into a panty dropping kiss, I have to hold back my moans but man I would never get tired of these lips.
"Wow! What....are.....you.....doing here?" I say in-between trying to catch my breathe.
"I'm an idiot"
"Okay?"
He laughs "I mean it Rosie, I'm an idiot. I don't regret proposing to you"
I look up at him in shock, he isn't being serious right.

"Henry...."
"I know your not ready and I respect that but Rosie I asked you because I love you. I asked you because I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Your it for me, no one else in this world would even come close. But I know your not ready and I know I've been distant and I'm sorry. I was trying to make sure I didn't scare you away anymore then I already had. I know marriage is a scary notion and I will wait till you are ready but please know Rosie, I want to marry you whenever your ready too"
I smile up and him and kiss him softly "I love you too Henry more then anything in the world and I do want to marry you and I want a future and little Henry's running around, I'm just scared. I don't know much about love or a happy healthy marriage and I'm scared I would screw it up, that I would end up screwing up our kids."

"Look at me"  He smiles "you will not screw anything up, your an amazing woman Rosie and your heart is so big and so full of love. You may not have had the best role models but you didn't need them. You have a heart of gold and I can't wait to have that future with you"
He takes a box out of his pocket and opens it up, showing me a beautiful ring.
"Henry....."
"I know, my mum gave it me. I told her what happened and she said I was an idiot to do it without this. It was my grandmas, she wore this everyday and she said it was blessed to anyone who wore it after. My mum knew you would be the one to wear this, but you don't have to right now. I can put this way and I can wait, I will wait for you forever"

My heart is pounding, he is being serious he would wait forever for me, but I don't want to wait forever, I know I love him and I want to be with him so why should I wait around. I should just jump and hope to god he catches me.
"Yes"
He looks up at me in shock "what?"
I giggle "yes Henry I'll marry you"
"Really?"
"Yes really"
He picks me up and spins me around, I can't help but squeal as my feet come away from the ground. As he places me back down, he kisses me deeply and places the ring on my finger. It's a perfect fit.

He leans his forehead against mine and smiles "so how about we get you packed up, moved to my house and we celebrate our new engagement, for many....many hours"
"Mmmmmm I think that sound amazing"
We walk hand in hand inside my house, ready to pack everything up and finally get me where I belong with my fiancé. Man that sounds weird.
