Chapter 30

Elizabeth's POV

Time Skip... Two Months Later...

 Bruce and I are out in the heart of the city having a romantic dinner at the top of the Empire State Building courtesy of Tony. Apparently people with all the money in the world can rent out of the top of the Empire State Building for whatever they want. Who would have thought right? The view up here is like no other in the city. We're even higher up than we normally are in Stark Tower and you know Tony so that's certainly saying something. 

  Tony even got us Italian food catered to us. Endless plates of spaghetti, ravioli, breadsticks, soups, and salad. Think Olive Garden but five times fancier and five times more expensive. Tony sure loves one upping the competition... I look over at Bruce who's actually wearing a classy gray suit with gray pants and a purple dress shirt. Purple looks silly on a lot of guys but not him, he pulls it off in such a unique way. I'm wearing a short black v neck dress with light jewelry and makeup. My hair is up in a bun and I'm sweating despite the cool breeze blowing throughout the air. Oh, I forgot to mention I'm actually wearing black pumps for once. Pumps are small heels but heels nonetheless. Be proud of me! 

   Bruce and I chow down on food while laughing our heads off. He's doing some silly impressions of my favorite actors to make me laugh. He's actually pretty good at impressions. His impression of Owen Wilson has me nearly rolling on the floor. "Bruce, how did you get so good at impressions? I've been trying to master them for years but have failed miserably." He shrugs. "I've just watched a lot of TV and movies over the years. Practice makes perfect I guess. I know some of my impressions still need a bit of work. All in due time." 

   After we finish eating our main courses and move onto dessert, I notice Bruce tensing up a bit. I frown and look at him in concern. "Bruce, what's wrong?" He smiles at me nervously. "T-There's something I want to ask you but I'm afraid of what the answer might be." I smile at him softly. "Please tell me love." He nods and takes a deep breath. He then gets out of his chair and gets down on one knee in front of me. I quickly put two and two together and a hand immediately flies over my mouth, both in shock and excitement. 

  "Elizabeth, we've been together for nearly a year now and it's been so amazing. You've made me a much better man in that short amount of time. Although it may seem like a short amount of time in the eyes of most, I know in my heart that proposing to you in this very moment of time is right. I love you, God I love you so much. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you be my wife?" I sob like a baby and jump into his arms. He laughs and somehow manages to place the ring on my finger. I look at it and gasp, it's beautiful. It's a medium sized emerald green diamond on an elegant, golden swirled band. 

   I can't believe I'm engaged to Bruce Banner. He's been my crush forever, then he was boyfriend, now he's my fiance, and soon to be my husband. This is a dream come true. Yes, I do plan on taking his last name. It would truly be my honor to do so.
