It was Raj and Emily's anniversary so he had taken her for a weekend getaway.

It was late in the evening and they had just finished the pizza that Raj had got from dominos and were talking on the settee.

"Do you ever think about the future?"

Emily smiled at Raj, "sometimes, do you think about the future?"

"Quite a bit actually, mainly how I want to spend it with you".

She smiled more and kissed him for a few seconds, "I love you"

"I love you too" he stood up and held his hand out, "dance with me"

She stood up, taking his hand and putting her other arm around his neck, smiling as she felt his arm go round her waist. After about a minute Raj asked her a question.

"Will you marry me?"

She stopped moving her feet and looked at him, "are you serious?"

"I know it's not the perfect proposal, I'm not down on one knee and don't actually have a ring, but I'm serious about wanting to spend the future with you".

She smiled again, "yes, I will marry you". She kissed him and carried on dancing with him. "It can't be between 4 and a half months to 9 months from now though otherwise I won't be able to fit into a dress".

This time it was Raj who stopped dancing, "are you serious?"

She laughed slightly and nodded, "I'm pregnant".
