"Gabe!! Are you ready?" you eagerly called from downstairs. The two of you were going to spend the day skating, since he had a day off.
Your boyfriend was NHL player Gabriel Landeskog. You met him while you were at one of his games in Vancouver, where you were attending University. You had continued communicating with him ever since, and now here you were, living with him in Colorado.
"Be down in a sec babe!" he called back.
Gabriel had seemed quite distant lately, so you couldn't wait to spend the day with him. You rarely got to spend time together for long periods of time since he was so busy with hockey; that was the downside of dating an NHL player.
"Ready beautiful?" he asked, as he walked down the stairs with a huge smile on his face.
"Sure am!" you smiled back at him, grabbing your bag in one hand and his hand in the other. You were wearing some black leggings, your navy Hollister jacket, a grey scarf, and some red knitted mittens. It was chilly in Colorado normally, but today was a nice day to go skating.
You guys walked the short distance to the Out door rink hand in hand, laughing at the kids who were having a snowball fight, almost hitting the two of you in the crossfire. You got to the rink to see that nobody was there, and it would just be the two of you. It was a nice mild day, so you were wondering why there weren't many people there. Oh well.
You laced up your skates, racing around the ice. Gabe even let you win a couple of the races. The rest of the time you spent holding hands and skating around slowly, deep in conversation.
"How did I get so lucky with you?" he asked, looking into your beautiful eyes.
"I think I should be asking that question," you replied, smiling at him, melting as you stared into his bright blue eyes.
"y/N, I have something to ask you. It's really important," you said, uncomfortably rubbing the back of his neck.
Oh no, you thought. He's going to break up with me. This can't be happening. A lump was starting to form in your throat.
"Okay, go ahead," you told him, trying to keep your brave face on.
"Y/N Y/L/N, this past year with you has been the best year of my life. And I'm being honest. I know this is kind of soon, but," he got down on one knee, looking up at you nervously. "Will you marry me?"
"Of course I will!" you say happily, starting to cry tears of joy. You couldn't believe it! He put the beautiful ring on your finger and kissed you.
"I'm very happy you said yes. Y/N Landeskog.. has a nice ring to it, don't you think?" he asked, kissing you again and again.
A/N: I thought since I usually write how you meet I'd switch it up. Let me know what you think!! Hope you liked it! :)
