"I'm Amy's imaginary friend, but I came anyway," the Doctor said, popping out of the TARDIS you close behind.
"Um, and I'm Y/N, I also came anyway," you said trying to make it sound like you knew what you were doing. Stepping out behind him.
The reception went on as planned and Amy and Rory were having their first dance. Soon the song ended and other couples came and joined for the next. Amy excused herself from Rory to go get a drink and was met at the table by a very drunk guy, probably a friend of Rory's. You couldn't hear what he was saying but you could tell he was making her wildly uncomfortable. You looked at the Doctor who was talking "Excuse me, I have to go make a scene," and you were up and in seconds you were in between the two.
"I told you I never wanted to see you again," you scolded him. Of course you didn't actually know who he was but he was too drunk to realize this and he shrunk away from you.
"I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were here," he said before slinking away. You turned to Amy ready for her to tell you she had it under control.
"Thank you," she said instead.
"Oh, uh no problem, any time, um, yeah!" you replied. She went back to Rory who was crowded by his friends, who were busy congratulating him. After she finally pulled him away from the crowd they resumed dancing.
"That was very brave," the Doctor said to you as you sat down trying to steady your heartbeat. When you first started traveling with the Doctor he knew something was different about you. Different from any of his other, and all more outgoing friends. It didn't take him long to realize how anxious you got when talking to people you didn't know, or how your breathing sped up when you were in a situation you really didn't want to be in. You stammered when you talked to him, and you were the same when you first met Amy and Rory. So him seeing you stand up for Amy like that, he was beyond proud of you.
You smiled at him "thank you," You really like the Doctor and he really liked you, but you had never established that you were anything more than friends, it was just an endless loop of the two of you flirting with each other, and then one of you becoming flustered. You sat there for a little bit, before he stood up and stuck his hand out to you.
"Take my hand," he said.
"Why?" you asked.
"I'm trying to ask you to marry me, so take my damn hand," he laughed. Your face turned red, you froze. He stood there for a moment letting you take in what he said. You lifted your hand into his and let him pull you up and lead you to the dance floor. He wrapped his arms around you pulling you closer, your arms went up over his shoulders, letting one of your hands find their way into his hair.
"Do you mean it?" you whispered.
"Of course I mean it. Marry me Y/N," he smiled down at you.
You nodded "okay,"
"I can get you a ring if you like," he suggested.
"I don't need a ring, just you," you replied with a sudden gain of confidence. His smile widened and he swept you into a kiss. You melted into him almost immediately.
From across the room Amy noticed you "holy shit," she whispered.
"What?" Rory said suddenly concerned he had done something wrong. Amy motioned over to the two of you.
"Holy shit," he repeated.
