When We First Met (A Poofless Fanfic)

Chapter 26. One Down, Two to Go.

(A/N: I have been dying to write this chapter!)

Jerome's POV

I was nervous, more nervous than the first day of 4th grade where I met Mitch. I breathed in a deep breath and grabbed a black velvet box. I put it in my pocket and walked down stairs. Lachlan winked, and gave me a thumbs up. He was the only one who knew of my plans today. "Hey guys! I really want to show somewhere that's really special to me!" I said smiling. They all nodded and got up.

-Skip walking-

I stooped in front of a small pond, and stopped. Mitch came behind me and grasped my hand in his. I breathed it and turned to Mitch still holding his hand. "Mitch, can I ask you a question?" I asked him. He nodded confused, I sighed in. "Mitch me and you have been best friends forever. And I love you more than anything. You make my world the brightest place on earth. Without you, I would probably be less than what I am now. Now what im about to ask you has been burning in me for a while now." I said slowly kneeling, getting down on I've knee. "Mitchell Donald Ralph Hughes, will you marry me." I asked him holding the engagement ring out. I heard cheering, and a camera sound. "J-Jerome! Of course!" Mitch said through tears, and laughter. I smiled, standing up and placing the ring on his finger. He smiled and hugged me tightly. "Guys! Can I post this to Twitter, and Instagram?" Lachlan asked us. I smiled and nodded slowly, staring into Mitch's eyes. "I love you." I said. Mitch giggled, "I love you too." He said replacing his lips on mine. Well wasn't this a dream come true! I believe it was!
