They had been there for ages, Autumn's head resting on Mia's shoulder, and Mia rubbing her back comfortingly. She pulled away and held Aut's hand, getting her to stand up.
"C'mon, lets go. I'm sure Marjorie would love to see you."
They headed out towards Mia's car, both giving Sara a dirty look on the way out. If anyone was queen of dirty looks, it would be them. They hopped into the front of Mia's black mustang, and she revved the engine and drove down the road. Autumn's eyes were filled with tears, making the trees she saw out of the window merge into one big blur of green. They pulled into the nursery's car park, driving past a big dark green sign, the words 'The Knight Nursery' in white and bold (image at the end of the chapter). Autumn punched in the code to the door, and strolled down the hall towards the office. As soon as Charlotte spotted her through the door window, she flung the door opened and Aut sped straight towards Marjorie, who was sat in a ball in the corner. She wrapped her arms around her girlfriend and let her sob into her shoulder while she rubbed Marj's back comfortingly.
"Mia let's go, we need to give them some space."
They went out into the hallway, leaving the couple there in silence.
As the pair sat in the corner huddled together, tears dripped from their eyes and onto the floor or the others shoulder. It wasn't the happiest moment, but the fact that they were both there for each other made it a million times better.
1 year later
Marjorie laid in bed spooning Autumn as she kissed the back of her head.
"Morning, baby" Autumn giggled, turning over to face the other woman.
"Morning, you alright?"
"Yes thank you."
Marjorie stood up to make Autumn some breakfast in bed. She slipped a small box into the pocket of her pyjama bottoms and headed downstairs. As she put a small flapjack by the side of the buttered toast, and pulled out that same box. She opened it and looked nervously at the ring inside, she took the ring out and placed it on top of the flapjack. She brought the tray up to thir bedroom and placed in front of Autumn anxiously. It took Aut until she was halway through her first slice of toast to notice the ring. She dropped the toast, making it fall back onto the plate. She looked up at Marjorie, mouth agape, and picked up the ring.
"Marjorie... what's this here for?" Tears started to well up in her eyes as she realised what was happening. Marj took the ring out of Aut's hand and got down on one knee, as Autumn sat up in shock, kocking toast and flapjack all over the duvet.
"Autumn Knight, will you make me the luckiest woman on the planet, and marry me?"
A single tear fell down Autumn's cheek as she leapt up from the bed and ran over to hug Marjorie. She buried her head into her neck, and took the ring, putting it onto her finger. She whispered in Marjorie's ear.
"Yes."
