(Just wanted to say that this chapter is a few months ahead from the last one. To clarify, Mystery boy and Ava now live together in his apartment, and Desmond and Luna live together in her apartment. Their relationships are at a high point, and Luna and Mystery boy haven't spoken in a few weeks....okay, now that you're all caught up, enjoy ^~^ )
It's mine and Desmond's 5 month anniversary and he said that he has something special planned for us. He gave me a beautiful red dress to wear tonight. I'm surprisingly very nervous about tonight. For our past anniversaries, we just stayed at home curled up in our sweatpants and old baggy t-shirts with Chinese food and ice cream. So why did he want to take me out somewhere this time? "Hey babe, you almost ready?" I heard Des ask from outside the door. I brushed through my hair one last time and called out a simple "Yeah, come in." He walked in and he looked so handsome. He was in a new tux and had a single rose in his hand, with his hair slicked back like the greasers did from The Outsiders. I think he noticed me staring at him because he blushed deeply and smirked. "You look amazing babe" he said, handing me the rose. "You look very handsome yourself" I said, sniffing the lovely flower. He held out his hand "Shall we?" I happily took his hand and nodded in response.
*Time skip to the restaurant*
The restaurant that Des picked out is extremely fancy and not really my taste, but it is our anniversary and I know he just wants it to be perfect. It's just how he is, everything has to be perfect, especially for special occasions. He tells the waiter person at the front podium that we have arrived, and whispered something into his ear to where I couldn't hear what was said. I just brush it off, thinking he probably just ordered something really expensive or something, and the waiter took us to our seats. Des, of course, was a gentleman and held my seat as I sat down and pushed me to the table afterwards. We spent what felt like hours talking, eating, and having a few glasses of water with a couple of champagne thrown into the mix. The waiters come with desert, and we just ordered a classic slice of chocolate cake, but of course, this place made it super fancy looking. As I reached for my fork, Des grabbed my hand. I looked up, taking in our surroundings, realizing that we are now the only ones left in the restaurant....I guess we actually did spend hours talking in here. I look Des in the eye with a confused look on my face, he seemed extremely nervous...and that's not like my Des, he's always super confident, so what's going on? "Please just let me talk okay? I really need to get this out with as little tears as possible" he says, chuckling a little at the end. "We've been together for 5 months now, and these have been the best 5 months of my life. I was just another depressed kid from a small town when I first met you, and I can honestly say that you've made me so happy. Baby, I haven't taken my anti-depressants in close to 2 months now because I don't need them when I'm with you. You make me so happy, happier than I ever thought I could be, and if you'll let me, I'll spend the rest of my life trying to make you feel the same way....So, Luna Rose, will you do me the honor of marrying me?" By this time I was in tears, and in shock with my hands covering my face, Des was also crying which wasn't helping my current situation. I truly did want to say yes....
but I just couldn't......
