Dani's POV

As Santana went out shopping with Rachel I was going to be having a meeting with my record label as they requested that I come in and talk to them about the next step of my career which I hope is something positive and not negative. However I'm also trying to think about what to do for mine and Santana's anniversary, she hasn't said anything about it so I might have to talk to her later about it because I'm not sure if she's planning something or not.

As I approached the front desk the receptionist, recognising me immediately, told me to go into the meeting room where everyone from the label was already there. 

"Dani, welcome! Please have a seat." Craig said as he and the other main heads of the label looked at me. As I sat down at the end of the table Craig began to speak again.

"So you are probably wondering why you are here and the reason is because of your recent success with your album and everything we feel as though we should get you out on a tour to get yourself out there more. It would be a 15 city tour all over the country and may take up to 2 months, we will give you time to think about this because I understand this is a big decision but we seriously believe that it would be very beneficial for your career." A tour? My own tour? This is insane. 

"Yes, thank you. I will definitely think about it." 

"Good, please get back to me in the next few days so we can prepare for your tour as soon as possible." 

As I left the building and walked back to my apartment I started to think about the tour and how on earth I went from playing small gigs to now having the possibility of performing in front of at least more than 30 people, possibly 100 or 200. This is insane....although... what would Santana say? It's going to be two months. I really don't want to leave Santana for two months. I mean she has her movie to finish filming and then she is onto her TV show... and I might have to miss experiencing that with her. 

When I walked in though the door I saw San sitting on the couch watching something on the TV. 

"Hey babe." 

"Hey baby, how was the meeting." 

"Good, um... they want me to go on tour." 

"Oh my gosh that's amazing D! I'm so proud of you!" San said getting up and giving me a kiss on the forehead as she embraced me. 

"But..." I started as she pulled away to look at me. "It's for two months and I'm not sure if I can go that long without you." 

"I know it's going to be hard D, but this is a huge opportunity. If you don't take up this offer then it may never happen and it will be easy to keep in touch, we have our phones as well as online so we'll never go a day without communicating and hopefully if I get a couple days off I can fly out to see you. I really think you should do it baby it's going to be amazing." 

"Okay I'll do it." 

"Good." San said as she embraced me again.

"Babe?" I asked

"Yeah" 

"What are we doing for our anniversary? Have you got any plans?" 

"Well I was thinking that we go out to dinner, I'll pay..." 

"No, San I..." 

"No Dani, consider it my gift for you getting your own tour."

"Alright." 

"So after dinner I was thinking we could just sit on the roof top and watch the stars." 

"That sounds good, I can't wait for two days though." 

"Well the time will go by quickly." She winked as we sat down to watch whatever San was watching, as we cuddled I started to fall asleep in the place where I belong. 

And just like that it was our anniversary and I woke up to San placing kisses all over my face.

"Hi baby." I yawned as I opened my eyes to meet hers. "Happy Anniversary." 

"Happy Anniversary to you D. I was wondering if you wanted to make some pancakes with me" 

"Sure." 

After we ate our pancakes we spent the day cuddling on the couch, watching movies and just enjoying each other's company as soon we would be apart for two months. At around 5 I decided I should give Santana her present before we go out to dinner just so I don't forget. 

"Hey baby, I need to go get your gift." 

"Babe, you didn't have to..." 

"Yes I did, I wanted to give you something." I got up and went into our room to get it and went back out to see San turning off the TV to give me her full attention. 

"So I didn't know what to get you so I decided to give you something that you can watch and listen to while we're apart." I said as I gave her the small wrapped package. When she opened and saw the DVD that included videos of me singing and a special video message to her I saw tears slowly fall from her eyes and I got up and gave her a big hug on the couch. 

"Sorry, it's just really hitting me on how soon you're leaving."

"But baby, the sooner I leave the sooner I'll be back in your arms." 

"I guess. Thank you D, I'm sure I'll be keeping this for more than just 2 months. Anyways we better get ready I've planned a big night ahead." 

"Can't wait" After we got ready she took me to this quite fancy place, and refused to let me pay but she said it was my treat for getting a tour. Then after dinner we ended up going to the top of our building where a picnic like setting with candles lit up. 

"I had Rachel and Kurt set it up while we were gone." San answered my question that was in my head. Could she read minds? 

As we sat down to eat the desert brownies and cupcakes that San had made, we just spent hours talking until all the candles were almost out. 

"Hey Dani, look up." I did as I was told and looked at the stars. 

Santana's POV

Come on Santana you can do this, as Dani was looking up I got the small box from out of the basket and placed it down on the blanket. 

"D" I said gaining her attention and drawing it to the box that layed in between us, she looked shocked and opened it up to see the "perfect present" that I got a few days ago. 

Dani's POV

I opened the small box to see a diamond ring with one large white diamond with two small red diamonds either side. It was so beautiful, was she about to...?

"I thought long and hard about what I would do for today and I thought about my feelings for you and realised that.... I want to spend the rest of my life with you, I want to wake up next to you every day, possibly raise a family and live this journey with the one person in my life who is not only my best friend but who I am deeply and totally in love with. Our lives are only going to get crazier with my acting career and your music going to play all over the world so I wanted to give you a reminder that I'm still here for you every step of the way." 

This was the point where my eyes were just balling and Santana grabbed my hand to say the words that I never thought anyone would say to me. 

"So Danielle Torres, will you marry me?"

I really couldn't believe that this was happening I really didn't think I had a voice anymore so I just nodded my head furiously. Then she took the ring out of the box and placed it on my ring finger where it will be for the rest of our lives. We embraced and when my voice finally came back I whispered in her ear....

"Yes"
