Bucky
Today was Scarlett's birthday and I had the perfect present for her. I just needed to ask her dad.

I made sure she wasn't home. I walked into the house and saw David getting things ready for her party.

"Sir, I need to ask you something".

"Okay son what is it?"

"I wanted to ask your permission to marry your daughter".

"Course Bucky. I'm surprised it took you this long to ask me".

"Me too honestly but I wanted this to be a good birthday for her".

"I'm sure it will".

"Thank you sir".

"Are you asking her tonight?"

"Yes. I want everyone to see and her mother to see so she knows I'll take good care of her daughter."

"You've always been the one that we knew would the one for her. Seeing you all three grow up together has been something. I'm so happy you're asking her to marry you.".

"Well I better go. I have a while til I see her and if I see her now, I'll probably ruin it and ask her now."

"See you tonight Bucky".

I drove back to my house and I told my mom and Becca my plans tonight and I packed a basket with all the things we had on the first time we made love on her birthday.

I told Sarah and I told all her brothers too. The closer to the party it became the more nervous I got.

Tonight I was asking this women to be my mine forever.
