Vern fumbled nervously with something in his pocket; he's been doing that since the start of your date.
"Are you sure okay, Verno? We can go back home if that's what you want..." You tucked a loose strand of your hair behind your ear.
He shook his head,"N-no. I'm fine, wanna eat here?" He gestured to the restaurant you had your first date at, which was five years ago when you both were seniors in high school.
"I'd love that," you smiled and he politely opened the glass door for you.
The two of you were assigned a table near the back of the place. Music played from the speakers above you, yet all you could hear were people talking.
You two spent an hour or two just talking about whatever. When it was time to leave, Vern called over a waitress quickly and whispered something in her ear. She nodded and silenced your area.
"What's happening?" You asked and glanced around the quiet restaurant.
"Y/N," Vern pulled a black box from his pocket and got onto one knee. Your hands flew up to your mouth. "I love you so much. From the moment I met you, I knew you were the one. I remember you trying to play off the fact that you tripped over air in the middle of the hallway. I'm lucky to be the one that caught you. You make me so happy and I want to be with you for the rest of my life.. Will you marry me?" Vern smiled hopefully.
You nodded,"Yes." You let out a happy laugh and he slipped the ring onto your finger. You gasped and hugged him tightly before kissing him quickly. "I love you so much."
"I love you most, Y/N Tessio. Hey, that has a nice ring to it." He laughed at his own joke.
