*jocelyn* *2 week timeskip*

I was sat on the couch watching some random show when the doorbell rang. I stood up and said that I would get it to Mike who was stirring next to me. I opened the door and saw... Sadie? Sadie!

"Sadie!"

I pulled her into a hug and laughed giddly. Why was she here?

"Lynny! I missed you!"

"I missed you too! Come in please!"

I invited her in and closed the door behind her. We sat at the kitchen island and got to talking.

"Why are you here?" I asked

"I have a meeting for a new movie and Mike asked me if I wanted to come see you." My jaw dropped

I turned around and he was gone. Damn.

We left the apartment and walked around the streets of New York and made it our mission to do every touristy thing. We got stopped a few times by fans but it was a blast. We talked to a couple of hours until Sadie had to leave for her meeting. We promised to meet again and then she left. I was left in a good mood and walked to our room to find Mike on his phone. I walked over and sat on the bed next to him. He had a slight smirk on his face as I looked up at him.

"Yes?" He urged

"Thank you for Sadie. I missed her so much, you don't even know. I haven't seen her in forever! You're the best, you know that?"

"I had a feeling."

"Can we go out for dinner tonight?"

"But tomorrow's our opening."

"Exactly! We need to celebrate. Just us this time."

"Alright. We'll leave in 2 hours."

. . .

The dinner was fantastic, we were walking through Central Park when Mike stopped me in front of a fountain. I looked up at him confused until he pulled out a little black box from his pocket. Just big enough to be a ring. Already? It will be our one year in a couple weeks but that's only a year! I don't think I'm ready.

"What is this?" I stuttered out

"It's not a proposal!" He rushed

My heartbeat went back to normal and I felt better.

"Then what is it?" I asked still a bit apprehensive

"It's a promise ring. Or it could just be a pretty ring if you want. Y'know I really love you, and I just though you deserved it."

Aw.

"You could've waited for my birthday next week y'know." I joke

"I couldn't wait." He looked down at his shoes

"Are you going to put the damn ring on my finger or what?" I stuck my right hand out

He laughed and grabbed the ring out of the box. He slid the rose gold jewelry item onto my ring finger and kissed my knuckles. I blushed lightly as I laced our fingers together. We continued our walk through my park and every once in a while I would look down at my hand.

We arrived back at our apartment and began to get changed into pajamas. We watched a movie until eventually we both fell asleep peacefully ready for what tomorrow held.
