Newt had spent everything for this. His time, effort and sanity. Although all of that would be put to waste if he were to mess up. He had prepared this for 2 months now, he had asked Queenie for help and even Jacob was willing to join. He had picked out the perfect one, the style was on point. Queenie laughed, the time when he laid eyes on it, he started crying (he would loved to see Tina wearing it.) The venue was reserved just for them, the day was perfect. It was perfect.

Tina's day, was pretty average. The world seemed to turn in her favor just for today. Achilles didn't try to snog with her, she had a good run earlier. Life was pretty good. She walked down the sidewalk to reach her new apartment, more cozy and bigger. She walked inside to be blasted with the aroma of steak and wine, she hummed as she hung her coat and hat on the coat rack.

"Queenie? Whats for dinner? It smells amazing—" she was stopped abruptly with the sight of Newt Scamander akwardly pulling a chair for her in the fancy set up of her kitchen. She let out a faint gasp, admiring the set up. Candles floated around the room with magic. The window was open to reveal the beautiful view of New York at night. And the flowers perfectly laid across the room and table made her gush. And Newt, Precious Newt was the best of it all. She giggled as she sat down in the chair.

"So, whats with all this?" She questioned him with a friendly smile. The candles floated around them in the slightly dark room making that romantic feeling. (My a e s t h e t i c)

"I-I j-just thought you needed a break." Of Newt, he was too much. Too kind, too smart, too loving. He cared so much for Tina that he would take the time out of his limited life to make her's better.

"Thats too kind of you. How did you know I liked white wine?" She smirked as she held up a glass with clear wine. He gave her a half smile before raising his own glass to her.

"Well, I am just very observant." He said with his cute half mumbling voice. Yes Tina thought it was cute, call her weird but in all honesty it just showed he was more vulnerable than her. And she could respect someone who showed weakness.

"I applaud you for your efforts, this makes me very relaxed." She tipped her glass with him before sipping her drink down. They had many conversations, about business or opinions and their future. She laughed a lot during most of it. She giggled and chuckled at his attempts to joke, finally someone who had the same intellect as her and could have intelligent conversations with made her engrossed in the talk. They had to stop when the food was ready, Newt took put a steak and cut in evenly between them. Both enjoying the meal she felt a sudden thirst.

"Newt, can I have more wine please?"  She asked putting down her steak knife. Newt's face was in a state of panic. She was confused why, he nodded before going into the kitchen and getting out a bottle of wine. He poured it into her glass and she gave him a quick thanks. As she drank the wine she hear a small clink when she finished. She looked inside her glass open for her eyes to open like dinner plates.

A ring

It was gorgeous, it was also very simple. It was made of silver and platinum and had three diamonds on it. She almost choked on her wine as she saw it. Gulping down the drink she laid the ring in her hand, inspecting it. She looked at Newt who seemed to be blushing madly.

"Whats this?" Her tone more demanding then friendly. He gulped down the saliva built up in hist throat and stood up. He took the ring from her hand gingerly and knelt down on one knee. It was now or never.

"Porpentina Goldstein, you are t-the most mesmerizing person I've met and I respect you and your responsibility and opinions. Y-you have infatuated me with all your lovely traits. And so I-I would humbly ask you if you would spend the rest of your life with me?" His eyes were glassy, his voice was almost a croak, he felt sweaty and felt like we was going through cardiac arrest. He looked to Tina who's hands covered her mouth in shock.

"Why would you want to marry me?" Her voice cracking at the end. Newt felt his heart broke again, this woman, this amazing perfect specimen of beauty is doubting herself.

"Tina, you are the most amazing thing that has ever happened to me and I will never regret my decision." He stated his voice was clear and loud. Tina's eyes were pricked with tears. She sniffled, her face was red from all the blushing and crying.

"Make me one promise though,"

Newt nodded hesitantly.

"If you ever fall in love with another woman, please, forget about me."

Newt's heart couldn't take it anymore.

"I assure you Ms. Goldstein I will never regret this choice."

Tina smiled. She wrapped her arms around Newt chanting "yes". Newt couldn't feel more happiness in his entire life, he finally got the woman of his dreams.

"FINALLY" Queenie and Jacob stepped out of the room beside them. Queenie's cheeks were tear stained and Jacob had a proud dad look. Tina laughed hysterically, knowing her sister would so something like this.

"Tina Goldstein soon to be Scamander. I will never regret this."
