Through Chrissie's eyes

Explanations

After that huge and happy scare, we waited for the boys to get ready to leave. Mary and Veronica were with me and after hugging and congratulating me, I was finally able to interrogate them.

"You didn't know anything?" I asked suspiciously.

"No, no, nothing at all," Mary confirmed. "I even noticed them hiding something, but I thought it had to do with the band and the contract."

"John is so quiet to me sometimes that I didn't even have the slightest idea," Veronica declared, "but it was so lovely, shame Brian didn't speak into the microphone when he made the proposal, I wish I had heard."

"Thank God he didn't do that," I said, amazed at the idea, "I was going to faint ... But I assure you it was the most beautiful thing I've ever heard in my life, and best of all, I know it was sincere."

-Oh you have to tell us later ... I can't wait to start the wedding preparations ..." Mary said delighted.

"Oh, right" I got scared a little bit "there's so much to think about, I ..."

"Calm down, you just got engaged, you'll have plenty of time to think about it later," Veronica advised.

It was then that we met our respective boyfriends, or should I say, their boyfriends and my fiancé, and Roger, who by a miracle was unaccompanied today.

"I still can't believe you did that." I rushed right over to Brian, feeling such an emotion that I couldn't contain it.

"I apologize for the scare," he mused. "Don't forget the idea was theirs."

"But you let yourself be convinced," John pointed out.

"Oh ... You haven't heard half the story, Chrissie," Roger laughed.

"I think it's good to tell me everything, sir" I used my best mother voice.

"See how it was about time for her to be Mrs. May? She doesn't lose that bossy, worried mood, "said Freddie, pointing at me.

Knowing that I would feel ashamed to be asked to marry in front of a crowd, Roger, Freddie and John decided to celebrate my engagement and Brian's in our old apartment, as we always did, which they knew would make me happy, since it was something we were already used to doing always and it was my favorite family environment.

"Now that we have arrived, Mr. Roger Meddows Taylor, you can go straight to the point and tell me everything you know about the idea of the marriage proposal" I demanded Rog to tell me, even though I was joking, I was curious.

"Don't speak my middle name out loud, Mom" he made a husky voice and looked at me with those eyes of an abandoned puppy that he knew how to do so well.

"Look, Chrissie, I didn't want to proposal in public," Brian said in front of his best friend, sitting next to me. "I wanted something simple, just between us and ..."

"And letting us out of this important moment?" said Freddie, "and proposal to the girl who in your words, Bri," is one in a million, your one and only, your sweet lady" in any way?

"Simple doesn't mean it any way," John argued.

"Simple is bad in Freddie Mercury's vocabulary," Roger stated.

"Well, guys, as I was saying," Brian became irritated a bit with his friends "I wanted to ask you to marry me since ... Well, I think that shortly after we completed a couple of years of dating, I commented this with Roger, and he of course told Freddie and John."

"Oh, they had to know too," Rog shrugged, not caring about Brian wanting to keep it a secret "then we suggest he ask after a show, to show everyone how special you are to him and no one has any doubts about how much he loves you."

"And it's an unforgettable proposal!" added Freddie,"worthy of how memorable you are."

I felt embarrassed with so much flattering.

"I was against the idea at the beginning, because both you and I hated being the center of attention, but all these arguments convinced me," Brian said in an excited voice.

"Oh, he was so angry sometimes he said he was going to leave the rehearsal and propose to you, to get it sorted out at once, and I tried to stop it because I wanted the proposal after the show." Roger continued his story "he had this idea of asking at the beach in Hampton, that's why the day that Bri's parents called, what I told him was to wait a little longer and talk to you on the show."

"So that was what happened that day, I thought you were fighting," I reminded it aloud, "and I knew you wanted to tell me something on that day at the beach, Bri. Oh, I'm so glad it's not a serious thing, I was beginning to think you were in some kind of trouble."

"His problem was to want to do things very simply" Freddie still disapproved of my fiancé's original plan.

"But it really was unforgettable," I said at last, still reliving the memories of the proposal in my head "thank you folks. And thank you Brian."

I looked at him, he looked back at me the same way. I just laid my head on his shoulder, happy to be surrounded by friends who cared so much about me that they demanded and made sure that Brian asked to marry me in the most memorable way possible. And grateful for my fiancé, so methodical and considerate when it came to me that he accepted the crazy plan of his friends, just to show everyone how important I was to him.

"I thank you for agreeing to be my wife," he told me, touching my face gently.

"I don't know how to reciprocate," I confessed. "It was all so great and so thoughtful, I wanted to reward you for it."

"You don't have to do anything big, Chrissie," Bri smiled. "Just stay forever with me and it'll be enough."

"I will, I want to stay," I promised and he ended up kissing me and everyone applauding.

I was already used to all the commotion around us, but I knew our family of the heart only wanted the best for both of us.
