It was a nice evening that was falling over Madrid and the perfect time to sit out on the patio for dinner. Carlos has insisted on cooking and had been doting on me all day with a breakfast in bed and taking me out for lunch and finally this:

The table was set with a candle and a vase of flowers, Carlos had even managed to get down the fancy plates we keep right at the back of the cupboards. The patio table sat right by glass doors and with only a few steps the pool was lay waiting. Carlos truly had the perfect home and I was beside myself when he asked me to move in a year ago. After dating for two years he had asked me to leave my apartment and live with him full time.

It was going perfectly and we couldn't be happier. That was until he brought out dinner and I was filled with even more joy than before at the sight of the pasta dish lay before me,

"Sorry it's only simple but-"

I cut him off,

"Carlos it's perfect."

He grinned sheepishly and sat down.

I couldn't help but notice through the the dinner that his hand was repeatedly swiping though his fluffy hair and his knee seemed to be bouncing rapidly up and down. I asked him if he was okay but he simply nodded and continued eating. I finally finished my meal but was having to hold back laughter as Carlos was telling me some wild story that he had gotten up to with Lando in Singapore.

"Why is it that the one race I can't come to you get up to mayhem!"

He shook his head and shrugged mischievously, sipping his drink and looking out onto the sunset,

"Can we walk to the pool?" He asked softly,

"Not a long walk but okay."

He stood up and offered his hand to me with a wink, I laughed and took it.

We walked to the edge of the pool and he stood behind me, his head resting on top of mine and his arms wrapped around my waist.

"Look at that up there." He said, his beard and hair slightly tickling the back of my ear,

He pointed his finger past my face and I eagerly followed to see what he meant,

"What do you mean?" I asked quietly, pouting when I couldn't see it and his arms fell from my waist,

I turned to find him on one knee with a red velvet box clasped open in his hands,

"Will you marry me and become Mrs Sainz?"

He asked, a hint of nerves laced his voice but his cheeky grin masked it,

"Yes!" I squealed,

He stood up and slipped the ring on my finger, then gently took my face into his hands and kissed me deeply.

"Let's jump."

"Wha-" before I could finish he pulled us both into the pool.

I submerged quickly to find him standing in the shallow end laughing loudly,

"Oh my god Carlos!" I exclaimed, swam my over but couldn't help but smile as he wrapped his around me and pulled me into his now soaking clothes.

"I'm never letting you go again." He murmured, pressing light kisses to my lips,

"Well I'm never going to leave so you do t have to worry." I said,

He broke the kiss and looked down at me, his chocolate brown eyes meeting mine,

"I love you... Mrs Sainz!"

He shouted the last part and picked me up, the water dragging down slightly but he had the strength to lift against the force and held me onto his chest.

This was perfect, the house, the life, him and those god damn chocolate brown eyes...
