Maggie's pov

It's been 1 year since Alex and I got back together. We call that day Memory Day, to remind us how lucky we were to have found our way back to each other. I wanted to surprise her by proposing to her. She did it for me twice, so it was time to return the favor. I wanted to do it in our apartment because that's where we had our first kiss. I was going to do it during our dinner.

"You like the spaghetti bolognese?" I asked.

"Yes, it's very delicious." Alex answered.

"Time to do something else!"

"What?"

"Dance with me."

"Sure."

I turned on the radio and Elvis Presley's Can't help falling in love came on. The perfect song for the perfect girl. I took her hand and turned her around like a princess.

"I love this song." I said.

"Yes, I can't help falling in love with you, Maggie Sawyer." she jokingly answered.

"Some things are meant to be, take my hand, take my whole life too, for I can't help falling in love with you. You did this for me twice, so it's time to return the favor. We've been through a lot together, and this day reminds us of the worst part of our life. But we survived, because we found our way back to each other. It took us more than a half year but we're back together. I want to marry you because you're the first person I want to see when I wake up in the morning, and the only one I want to kiss goodnight. Let all my happiness be yours, all your sadness be mine. Let the whole world be yours, only you be mine. I love you so much, Alex Danvers. Will you marry me?" and I showed her the diamond ring.

"Of course I'll marry you!" she excitedly answered.

I put it on her finger and gave her a romantic kiss.

"It looks gorgeous on you, sweetie." I said.

"You're gorgeous." she said, while smiling at me.
