Rich's P.O.V

I'm proposing to Jake today! I'm really excited. We've been together for what, 5 years now? Well, it doesn't matter. I'm so fucking excited!

"Mikey! Come here!" I yell to Michael. He knows I'm going to propose to Jake. He's going to propose to Jeremy today as well. We're going to have one of those double wedding things. "Doeth(does)the ring look okay? Do you think Jake'll like it? What if he sayth(says) no?" I say with nervousness in my voice.

"Okay, slow down. The ring looks perfect, I know Jake'll love it. He won't say no, and if he does, I'll beat his ass. You're perfect for him, I swear he'll love it," Michael responds. I start to chew my nails. Michael slaps my hand out of my mouth, "No biting your nails, you!" He yells at me. I start to get planned for when I'm going to propose.

I was thinking of proposing in the park. We went on our first date there. It was perfect, at least to me. So I think I'm going to propose there. Yeah, that's what I'm going to do. His ring is gold with two black stripes going down the middle of it. Does that make sense? I think it does.

Oh god, Jake is coming home from work in an hour! What if he says no? What he doesn't like me anymore? What if he thinks I'm ugly?! No, Rich, stop. He love you and you know that!

"Michael ith(is) everything thet(set) up right?" I ask.

"Dude, you had like, nothing to set up," Michael responds back from the kitchen.

"Oh, right," I respond back, "I'm just really nervous. Thorry(sorry),"

"Well, I'm going to leave if that's okay," Michael says, heading for the door. "Bye," I respond.

"Rich, honey, I'm home! We have that date tonight, right?" Jake yells as he opens the door.

"Uhm, yeth(yes)! I wath(was) thinking we could go to the park? Where we had our first date?" I ask Jake. He nods his head as we motions me to come over by him. I'm almost shaking. I'm really nervous but excited at the same time. Is that possible?

We start to walk down to the park. "The scenery is beautiful, isn't it?" Jake says.

"Yeah," I respond, "just like you," I add on, smiling up at him.

We reach the park after a few more minutes. I feel my back pocket for the wedding. ring. It's there, thank god. Glad I didn't loose it.

I didn't want to buy a box for it because I can't fit that in my pocket, and it would make it noticeable, so I didn't.

We reach the tree where we shared our first kiss under, "C-can I, pothibly(possibly), maybe, kith(kiss) you?" I ask Jake. He nods and leans in.

We share our kiss, but he just doesn't seem to be into it. Is something wrong? Did I do something wrong? Oh god, I hope he doesn't see me sweating. It's probably fine, I think. Maybe he's proposing too and he's just worried. But what are the chances of that? Both of us proposing at the same time? That would be a cool story to tell.
Yeah, he is moving his lips just he doesn't seem to be liking it if you know what I mean. I put my hands on the back of his neck and pull off his lips. "Everything all right?" I ask.

He nods and adds on, "I just need to tell you something," he says.

I nod as well, "I do too. How about you go firtht(first)?" I say. He nods and I smile, letting go of his neck.

"You know I love you, right?" He asks. I nod my head while I start to smile.

"Well, we've been together for a long time now haven't we?" He asks, chuckling in the middle of it. I nod and my smile gets even bigger. His look starts to get a little sad. I start to get confused.

He bites his lip, fairly hard as well, and continues, "Well, maybe, I think we should break up. I'm sorry, it's me-" he starts to say, but I cut him off with tears already starting to form in my eyes.

"It's not me, but it's you? Oh, okay," I say, my lisp completely gone. Tears are now rushing down my face. "You know I was going to propose to you, right? Fuck, this was a stupid idea. I knew it. I knew you were going to break up with me. Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck!" I say as I start to punch the tree with every 'fuck' I say.

I pull the black and gold wedding ring out of my pocket and throw it on the ground. "You can keep it, it was going to be yours anyway. I truly wish you the best. I hope you find someone who's better than me," I say, my face now covered in tears.

I get to the edge of the park and started to call Michael. He picked up saying, "Rich! Oh my god! Jeremy said yes! What did- oh shoot are you okay?" Michael asks as a sniffle in the middle of his sentence.

"Y-yeah I'm good. I'm th-tho(s-so)happy for y-you! Just, it's just," I say, now going into full break-down mode. "Jake b-broke up with me," I say, now sobbing into my arm. "Can you c-come pick me up? You k-know where I am right?" I say into the phone.

"Oh, uhm, yeah. I'll be right there. Make sure to bring Jake so I can actually beat his ass off," he responds with. I chuckle at that

"You would've been a great husband, you know that? He doesn't deserve you. You're actually perfect, okay? Don't think any different," he responds.

"Y-yeah, okay. I'll be at the e-entrance of t-the park," I sniffle. "Fuck, I must seem so pathetic,"

"No! Not at all. It's normal to be crying! If someone wasn't they didn't actually love their partner. Also, I'm here."

I hang up the phone call and get into his truck, "thanks," I say while rubbing my nose and getting into the car, not bothering to put on my seatbelt.

He shrugs his shoulders and nods, really saying, 'it's no problem'. He reaches over the middle storage thing(I dunno what it's called) and gives me a hug.

"It's going to be okay," he whispers into my ear.

"It's going to be okay."
