After a wonderful nap, Fitz and I met up at a small cafe down the road. We were halfway through our drinks before a question popped into my head.

"Fitz, I was wondering, the trip to Paris, was it actually a business trip or was it just to propose?" I asked.

"It was only to propose. There was no business whatsoever, and when I do have business trips they're usually in the country. What I had been doing was setting up a romantic date on the Eiffel Tower. It took me forever to reserve the top of it for us but I'm glad I got it eventually." Fitz said.

"What else did you do? You had been gone for quite a while during the time there." He grabbed my hand.

"Talking and reserving mostly. I needed to make sure that everything was perfect for the proposal. And I was also writing the speech," he chuckled, "you don't want to know how many times I've thought then trashed. Took me like 10 or even 12 times to think of the proposal speech I had given you." I smiled.

"That's sweet. The proposal you gave me was very romantic. I love you."

"I love you too." We continued to talk for a while til we finished our drinks and then we went on a small walk together.

"I can't wait to get married to you."

"Same here, the ring is gorgeous. I'm so undeserving to have someone like you." I said.

"No way. I'm your boyfri- fiance, your future husband, I treat you like a queen because you are one. You deserve anything and everything." I smile and kiss him, wrapping both my arms around his arm. Hearing those sweet words escape his mouth made my heart melt. I truly was unlucky to have someone as amazing as Fitz.

"So when do you want to talk about things for the wedding?" Fitz asked, as we continued to walk hand in hand.

"Anytime would be fine."

"How about next week on Monday after work? You can stay after work and we settle everything down." He suggested.

"That works perfectly. Biana's going to freak when she sees the ring." Fitz chuckled, nodding in agreement.

"Yeah and then she's going to get mad at me for not telling her I was going to propose."

"Did you tell anyone about the proposal?"

"Well of course our parents but no one else. I know if I blabbed it to Biana it wouldn't stay secret anymore, so I kept it to myself and everything went wonderfully." I smile.

"It did." Fitz and I continued to walk in a comfortable silence.

(Time Skip)

Biana and I had just met up for the first time of the day and we took a seat at the table, setting our trays of food down.

She still hadn't noticed the ring and I started to eat when she soon realized it.

"Fitz proposed?! That's amazing!! The buffoon hadn't told me he was going to propose! Let me see." She grabbed my hand and gasped when she saw the ring.

"That's so pretty, Fitz knows his rings. Did he propose over the trip?"

"Yeah, the trip was so romantic. And you won't guess where he had done it."

"Where?"

"On top of the Eiffel Tower." Her jaw dropped.

"That's so cool! What was Paris like?" She asked.

"Amazing. The architecture was amazing and the food was even better. It was very different from here but in a very good way. We had a blast there."

"Luckyyy. But Fitz had never told me he was going to propose. The nerve he has."

"He didn't want the secret to go around, it was nothing personal. No one else knew other than our parents."

"I'm very happy for you two. Congratulations! I'm expecting nieces and nephews right after you get married." My cheeks turned red.

"You might have to wait for a while." She pouted.

"But still I'm really happy for you guys. You guys deserve each other." I smile.

"Thank you Biana." We continued to eat for the rest of our break and we soon returned to work. After another couple hours, work was finished. When everyone was heading out, I headed into Fitz's office.

"Hello my dear."

"Hello sweetheart." He smiled and organized his desk before he pulled a small notebook out of his drawer.

"Let's get right down to business. When do you want the wedding to be?" I shrugged my shoulders, which probably wasn't the best response.

"Some day during May or early June." I answered. He jotted it down.

"So I'm presuming an outside wedding?" He asked and I nodded my head. "Small ceremony?" I nodded my head again.

"Yeah, you know I don't like extravagant things. So just our friends and family." He nodded in understanding and wrote it down as well.

"With this, I'll set up an appointment with a wedding planner and we can talk a bit more details with them. Such as the venue, guest list, catering, and etcetera." Fitz said. So far planning a wedding isn't that hard. We spoke to each other about days before heading out of the building.

He drove and walked me to my apartment, saying bye with a short kiss and hug. I headed inside my apartment, Linh following right after me.

"You came home later than usual." She said, taking a seat on the sofa.

"Yeah Fitz and I briefly went over the wedding plans, to give ourselves a small head start to the actual wedding planning, but so far it's not that hard." I say.

"Well I'm going to be your bridesmaid right?" Linh asked.

"Yes you are." She clapped her hands and giggled.

"Yay! Your wedding is going to be amazing!"

"I hope so."

So I think I may have lied when I said this book would only be 27 chapters, I think I actually am going to make it to 30 probably even more than that ending off this story with an epilogue, so I think I'm going for at least another 3 chapters, excluding the epilogue, so we're not exactly at the very end yet!
