37: "sarah, i wanna marry you"

"morning humans!" i skipped into the kitchen happily.
"you're up early" sarah commented.

its been a few months and im doing so well with my ptsd. the thought of paige being mine motivated me to get better. the nightmares lessened - image rehearsal therapy was the best thing ever. depressed and anxiety still sucked ass but i had better medication now and it helped.

overall, i was doing way better. there were days that i felt hopeless and overwhelmed. but i was improving a lot. i wasn't ready to go back to school no way. but i was doing great right now

"i smelt pancakes" i grinned as i sat next to my dad who was tiredly scrolling through twitter. "you okay?" i asked him. he sighed.
"yeah i guess. just exhausted" he put his phone down and drank his coffee.
"did you sleep?"
"barely" something was bothering him.
"you wanna talk about it?" i asked timidly. sarah put two pancakes in front of me and went to feed the dogs. brendon closed the door and turned to me.
"i wanna marry sarah but im really scared she'll say no"

"brendon! oh my god!" i squealed.
"i love her so much a-and i wanna spend the rest of my life with her. ever since you went missing i've been thinking about it" he kept this in for so long.
"brendon, do it. she loves you a lot and i really wanna see you happy. since i met her she's been a mom to me. do it. im here to support you" i said.
"what if she says no?" he trembled.
"then maybe she isnt ready. but i'll bet she wants to marry you"

the door opened and sarah saw us.
"you guys okay?" she asked us. brendon turned around to face us.

"sarah, i wanna marry you"
