Love Has No Boundaries (Straight Furry Fanfiction)

Chapter 21: The Proposal

Emily's P.o.V

Tom was taking me out for dinner tonight. We were going to a very fancy restaurant. It was about 10 hours until we were going out and I was sitting on my bed talking to Sandra. "So, what are you doing tonight?" I asked. "Ryan's taking me to the cinema to watch a movie" she said as I picked up the necklace Tom gave me. "Oh cool, what movie are you going to watch?" I asked. "I don't know, Ryan's keeping it a secret" she said. "Alright. Has he ever taken you for dinner?" I asked thinking about tonight. "No, but I hope he does soon" Sandra said. "Okay then, ha-" I started before Sandra started talking. "Yeah? Okay I'll be there in a minute. I have to go, my mums calling me" Sandra said. "Okay, see you soon" I said and she hung up. I put the necklace down and lay down on my bed. My phone vibrated and I looked to see a text from Tom. 'Hello sweetheart. Need to say, I might be late to dinner tonight. I was hit in the ribs and I'm gonna be in hospital for a few more hours. Sorry' it said and I was shocked. 'Who hit you?' I texted back thinking who it could be. 'I'll tell you later. I have to come off my phone now' the message said. 'Okay, see tonight' I texted and turned off my phone. I closed my eyes to have a nap until I go out tonight.

I was waiting in the restaurant for Tom. I was sipping on my drink when someone sat opposite me. I looked up and saw a random deer. "Hello beautiful, this seat ain't taken is it?" He said. "Actually, it-" I started before he cut me off. "That's great. So what's your name?" He asked looking at me creepily. "This is creepy, go away" I said but he grinned and leaned across the table. "Give us a kiss sweetheart" he said and I could smell the beer in his breath. "No, stay away from me!" I said but he grabbed the back off my head. I tried to resist but he was stronger than I was and he pulled me closer to him as he licked his lips. "I'm going to enjoy this" he said and kissed me on the lips. I struggled and moaned to try and get him off me but failed. He breathed his beer stenched breath into my mouth and I moaned as he let go. "Wow, you have a nice taste" he said as I coughed from his horrid breath. "I want more" he said before someone put their paw on his shoulder. "Who the fuck are you?!" He said and I looked to see Tom. "I'm her boyfriend" Tom said and the man stood up. "Not any more little baby. She's mine now" he said and I could that Tom would lose a fight in his state. I grabbed an empty bottle and smashed it over his head, making him drop to the ground, unconscious. I hugged Tom and he breathed in quickly. I remember he was hurt and let go. "Sorry Tom, I forgot but I needed to hug you after that man kissed me" I said and he hugged me. "Its fine Emily, you knocked him out. So let's eat shall we?" He said. "Let me just freshen my breath first, I don't think you want this taste when you kiss me" I said and he nodded. I went to the bathroom to get rid of the taste.

We had ordered and were eating and talking about random stuff. "I can see you really like the necklace I gave you" Tom said and I remembered that I was wearing it. "Yeah, thanks for it Tom, it's really cute" I said before I remembered what he had said in a text earlier. "Tom?" I said and he looked up from his pizza. "Mmh?" He said with his mouth full. "Who hit you?" I asked as he swallowed. "Um, it's very surprising actually" he said and I was still thinking who it could be. "Who was it? Was it Ryan?" I said and he shook his head. "It was Derek" he said with a upset look on his face. "What, why would Derek hit you?" I asked so shocked. "He had an argument with Rebecca. She came to my house and Derek followed her. I fought him to protect her" he said. "I'm sorry Tom, I'll make sure that Derek apologies to you" I said. "Don't worry about it Emily, I'll go and see him tomorrow and see if he's alright. Rebecca shouted at him" he said as I ate my steak. "Okay Tom, I think I'll stay out of this one" I said and we are until we were finished. I grabbed the sleeve of a waitress and she turned round. "Can we have the bill please" I said and she nodded. "Emily, before we go, I need to tell you something" he said standing up. I also stood up and he held my paws. "Emily, since the first day I saw you, I was in love with you. And when you told me you had feelings for me, I knew I would become the happiest husky alive. So that's why we're here" he said getting down on one knee. "So I can say, Emily. Will you marry me?" He asked opening a box with a beautiful ring inside it making me gasp. He looked at me with a loving smile and I smiled too. "Yes Tom. I will marry you" I said and his face seemed to fill with excitement. He put the ring on my finger and stood up and kissed me. I kissed back and we hugged tightly. "I love you so much Emily, I could explode with happiness" Tom said. "Your bill, miss" a woman said and I turned and took it. I paid and me and Tom left.

Timeskip To Next Day

"So, what do you two have to tell us?" My dad said. Me and Tom had gotten our families together, Derek and Rebecca included. "Well, as you know, me and Emily have been dating for a few years now and we went out to dinner last night like we do a lot" Tom said. "And when we were out Tom asked me a question" I said hugging him. "What was the question?" Carrie asked. "He asked me to marry him. And I accepted" I said showing them the ring. "Oh my god, my little baby girl has grown up" my mum said, getting up and hugging me. "Tom, why didn't you tell us you were going to propose to her?" John asked. "I wanted it to be a surprise for everyone but, Derek found out like he always does" Tom said and my mum let go. "Derek, you knew about this?" Carrie said. "I walked up the stairs to go see him. He was doing it without the door shut" Derek said. "I'm so happy for the both of you" my dad said. "Thanks but, we need to go now. We have to find a place to get married" Tom said and we walked towards the door. "I love you Emily" my mum said. "Love you too mum, and thanks for not flipping out at us dad" I said and everyone chuckled.

That's the end of the chapter. Sorry it's shorter than the rest, I'm running out of ideas so the next chapter will also be short. I'm trying to get to writing the new story as soon as possible. Thanks for reading.
