"You deserve better. I'm just a screwed up guy who fell in love with someone incredible," Tyler says.

"Tyler, I wish you could see what I see. Let me try to explain it," Josh begins,
"You're a puzzle. You have no idea how unique and beautiful you are until someone puts your pieces together and transforms you into something you never knew you were. You're an extraordinary puzzle, Tyler. And I believe I can be the one to put your pieces together."
—Me :)

---(one month later)

Josh was taking me to a "surprise destination" as he called it. I was super excited to see that he had planned. "Ok just a little bit further..." Josh said as he guided me to who knows where. I was blindfolded and couldn't see a thing, except for the black fabric. All day I hadn't been able to get the goofy grin off of my face, considering the anticipation was eating me alive- in a good way of course.

"And we're here," he untied the blindfold from my head and let it fall to the grassy ground. My eyes had to adjust for a second, but when they did, the sight was absolutely beautiful.

We were under a tree, that's branches were decorated in bright lights. It looked like its leaves were made of stars. There was a picnic laid out, with a bouquet of roses sitting beside it, along with a few candles. It was one of the most magnificent scenes I'd ever seen.

But the most amazing part of it was Josh. He sheepishly sat down on the blanket, and patted the seat next to him. I was dumbfounded, at a loss for words.

I joined him on the ground, still staring in awe at my surroundings. "How?" Was all I could manage.

"Do you like it? I wasn't sure what you'd think," he blushed, playing with the hem of his jacket. "Are you kidding?! It's incredible!" I gushed, feeling as if I would cry. He did all of this for me? I definitely didn't deserve him.

He chuckled, visibly less tense knowing I liked it. "I got us the best food money could buy," he opened the basket, taking out two Taco Bell tacos. "Perfect," I laughed, taking mine. Everything about this night was perfect. Josh was perfect.

"What made you do all of this?" I asked, taking my taco from him and unwrapping it, and feeling my insides melt on the best way. "Well, Tyler," he began, taking my hand in his and staring into my eyes.

I set down my taco, and had a sneaking suspicion of what was about to happen, which made me cover my mouth with my trembling hand. "I know we've only been dating for 2 months, but we've loved each other much, much longer than that," he spoke nervously, pulling something out of his coat pocket. It was a small, velvet box.

"There are no words to describe how incredible you are.... Geez, I rehearsed what I was going say a million times, but now it's all jumbled," he said anxiously, then continued. I could almost hear his heart beating out of his chest, but then again, maybe it was mine.

"So I'll just say this-
I love you more than anything on this Earth. I love you more and more with each minute. And I want to continue to love you for the rest of my life. Tyler Joseph, will you give me the pleasure of marrying me?" He opened the small box and revealed a gold ring. His hands were shaking. I gasped, my heart stopping altogether. I didn't even have to think about my answer.

"Of course!" I jumped onto him, pressing my lips on his and knocking him over in the process. I'd never been more sure if any decision in my life; after all, who could say no to those eyes? I didn't stop kissing him until I was out of breath, and sat up, pulling him with me. "Thank God you said that," he breathed as he slipped the ring onto my finger. It fit perfectly, and with closer examination I saw it was engraved with,"The Tear In My Heart". By now, my eyes were open flood gates, and I cried freely.

Most people wouldn't find the message very romantic, but to me it was perfect. "I can't wait to be your husband, Joshua Dun," I smiled, feeling woozy with happiness. "And I can't wait to be yours," he replied, bringing my hand to his supple lips and planting small kisses on it.

Once we got back to our apartment, we headed into our room. We just talked for a while, mostly about how much we loved each other, and laughed over stories we both have already heard.

Then he leaned in and pecked me on the mouth, but the kiss quickly turned passionate. He yanked his shirt off over his head and I did the same to mine, discarding them as we began kissing again. If we never stopped kissing, it would be too soon.

I pulled away one more time to look into those eyes that'd drawn me in in the first place, and ran my fingers through his bright hair to make sure this all wasn't just an extraordinary dream. I lifted his chin and he grinned as he looked back. This was actually happening.

I was his, and he was mine. My butcher with a smile.
