"Babe, I'm just going to pop to the toilet. I won't be long." I said, trying to contain my nerves.

"Okay Dan, take your time."

I got up from the table, kissed Molly and made my way to the toilets.

I stood in front of the mirror and Josh appeared from in one of the cubicles. "Josh, why was you hiding in one of the cubicles?"

"Didn't want people to give me funny looks. You know, just randomly standing in a restaurants toilets waiting for someone to come in. Not weird at all." Josh said, sarcastically.

"So randomly standing in a cubicle isn't as weird as that?"

"Just drop it, yeah? Have you got everything?"

"I think so."

"Speech?"

"Yeah."

"Ring?"

"Yeah." I showed Josh the ring.

"Dan, you've got excellent taste in everything. You're good to go."

"I'm really nervous Josh. What happens if she say's no? We've been together for a few days too... It's not like we've been together for years but if feels like it and it feels so right. I want to propose her, I want her to say yes."

"Dan, she's not going to say no. She's crazy about you, I've never seen anyone else like that before. You two are made for each other, she will say yes. Now go out there, be yourself, eat your food and ask her." Josh patted my back.

"Yeah, Okay. I can do that. Cheer's mate. How are you going to get out here without getting caught by fans or even Molls?"

"I'm helping Gordon out in the kitchen making sure everything's perfect for you two."

"Alright dude, wish me luck."

"You don't need the luck, she's going to say yes."

I splashed my face with some water, smiled at Josh and walked out the bathroom towards the table to see Molly sitting there, smiling as she saw me coming towards her.

"I was wondering where you got to!"

"Oh, I saw Gordon on the way there and he wanted to make sure we get the best treatment available."

"We don't need any special treatment Dan."

"I know, that's what I told him. We wanted to be treated like normal customers so he's doing that."

We looked at the menu and the waitress came over, acting as normal as she could. "What drinks can I get you both?"

"I'll have a Pepsi please." Molly said.

"Oh, being good are you? I'll have a larger please."

"I can't have alcohol here, can I Dan? I'm 17" she laughed. I totally forgot she was underage after she's been drinking with us on tour.

"And what would you like to eat?"

"I'll have a Mixed Grill. What do you want, Molls?"

"Erm, can I have a Chicken Salad please?"

"Sure, your order shouldn't be that long." The waitress told us. 

I started holding Molly's hand across the table, gazing into her blue eyes. She's incredibly pretty, I hate that she doesn't believe it when I say she is.

"You're stunning Molls. Not just tonight, every single day. Even when you've just woken up. I love watching you as you sleep, you're the prettiest girl I've ever seen and want to see."

"Oh, Dan. Stop, you know that's not true. Look how gorgeous Hayley Williams is."

"But Molly, you are. I'm going to keep saying it until you believe me. And, girl crush?" I laughed as I leaned over and kissed her, only to be broken up by the waitress bringing us our drinks.

About 15 minutes later, she brought us our food. We sat there, eating and talking about how perfect our day has been. She mentioned about the future and how she hopes we'll still be together. 

We finished eating our main course and the waitress came over again. "Would you like any dessert?"

"Oh no, I'm full thanks."

"Ah, come on Molls. We'll share a cake?"

"Okay then, but only because it's you."

The waitress walked away again.

"Molly, can I ask you something?"

"Yeah, sure. What is it Dan?"

I took a deep breath in, and breathed out.

"Molly, we've known each other for what, one week? and in this one week, I've learned so much about you and infact, myself. You make me incredibly happy. I never want to be without you. Everyone that's around you loves you, even Aled and it takes him a while to like people. Everyone in the band loves you, you're our family now. We want you with us 24/7. I want to be with you 24/7. I don't care if you get sick of me, because I'll never get sick of you."

I stood up next to her and got down on one knee. I breathed in. I pulled the box that contained ring out from in my pocket and opened it.

"Molly Robinson, will you do me the honours in becoming Mrs. Daniel Flint? It doesn't have to be right away; it can be in a year or 4 years time. Molly, will you marry me?"
