Nameless

Chapter 40

It's been a month since Erik and I started dating  and I can't help but feel as I'm falling in love with him, Which scares me. And today is our anniversary.

The thing is he won't tell me what we're doing. It's a secret and I'm dying to know what it is.

But I couldn't wait and I already got him his present.

The Doctor Who book he was reading when we met when we were younger.

I really hope he likes it.
It took me three weeks to find it for him.

As I go to my dorm to get ready there's a ballon. At the end of it there's a needle, so I pop the ballon and out comes a note card that reads,

"I first noticed your piercing eyes that held me captivated. They seemed like they held the world and innocence and I couldn't help but try and understand it."
Maybe they're from Erik because I'm not really sure what this is about.

As I get ready and go to my car I see another ballon tied to the side mirror.

As I pop it another note comes out,

"Your smile got me next. The way your dimple would come to life even if it wasn't a big smile, the way you smiled so easy and carefree with your friends, I knew I had to have that smile around me."

I get in my car and drive to the park were suppose to meet at.

There's a ballon on the slide.

As I read the note card I couldn't help but see that it's Erik and he's spent so much time on this.

"The way your eyes light up when you write. I wanted your eyes to light up like that with me."

As I circle the park I see balloons tied to trees, making a path for me.

As I keep on walking and popping balloons, I couldn't help but notice how much he's noticed about me.

"The way you tap your fingers every time a song you like comes on. And every time I wished that I could have your fingers tap around me."

I can't believe he's noticed all this.

"The way you stand when your nervous has me worried about you and I want to take all your nerves away."

There two more balloons left and then it curves.

"The way you joke with my friends as if they're your long lost brothers makes me see that you're the nicest and most caring person I've seen and I want to care for you."

This is it the last ballon.

"Emily, I love you with all my heart. Please turn around."

And so I do and there he is holding one last ballon.

"Go on, pop it." he tells me.

So I do and a bunch of white  corrosives come out and a note card.

And the note card reads something big,

"Marry me, Emily. I'd be so happy, we could be so happy. I love everything about you and I can't imagine my life without you in it at all. So, please, be the doctor to my tardis. "
I can't help but smile as he put a Doctor Who reference in it, the fandom that brought us to meeting each other.
And as I look at Erik I see him on one knee.
