Alex POV 

The ride to the top takes about 5-10 minutes. At one point I think I might be able to fall asleep in it. I've lived here for about 4 months but I've never been up here. Ethan isn't really a big fan of elevator now just imagine being stuck in an elevator for 5-10 minutes with a crying baby. It's a living hell. I've never felt like coming here is that important to come here anyway so leaving Ethan with Ellie isn't really an option. We finally arrive and Ross put his hand over my eyes. 

"What are you doing?" I ask not wanting him to put his hands over my eyes. 

"I've seen the view before and I'm guessing you haven't so I want it to be breath taking," he says and I aww. I hear multiple footsteps and immediately thing that were not alone there's other people.

"But there are other people and I don't feel like looking weird tonight," I say beginning to move his hands away and he just presses a bit harder. 

"Don't worry about them," he say and I sigh in defeat. 

"Okay," he says removing his hands from my eyes and I'm finally allowed to see the city. He's right it's absolutely breath taking. I look around and you can see how downtown is a lot more active than the rest of the city. I smile at the view below me and Ross rests his head on my shoulder. 

"It's beautiful," I smile at him and turn around to place a kiss on his lips. 

"That's not all," he says once we pull away. I give him a confused look and he turns around with my hand in his. Before me stood a table with a silver platter in front of me. 

"Open it," Ross pushes. I give him a confused not wanting anymore food. I lift the cover to find a banana split. I laugh at the smiley face and at the fact that it was something huge and notice that the ice cream was just put here because it hasn't begun to melt yet. I grab the rolled up spoons and am about to take off the hoop around it when I realization hits me. 

Its a ring. 

My breathing stops and I think I've gone pale. Is he proposing? Holy shit! He grabs the ring and places it on my middle finger. Wait what? 

"This is a promise ring,"he says and I stare at the expensive looking ring on my finger. (www.polyvore.com/cgi/set?id=11101...). I look at his hand and he bears a ring too. Only that his says endless love and my ring fits into it. I smile at how sweet this is. Honestly I expected something under the platter not on the napkin. 

"It will represent that we love each other and belong to one another," he says looking up to me. 

"You like?"he asks and I crash my lips onto his. 

"I love you," I whisper against his lips and he pulls back his eyes wide and I curse myself for saying it first. 

"Did you just say the 3 words? The words," he pauses and I nod slowly. 

"You. Just. What? I was supposed to say it first,"he says and he pouts. I stand up from my chair and sit on his lap. 

"Well I said it first,"I say kissing him again. I slowly feel his 'frown' turn into a smile. 

"I love you,"he whispers. 

"And I love you,"I say not wanting it to sound like I'm repeating it.
