A Boy Named Conan

Valentines day.

            It's VALENTINES DAY!!!  Conan woke up early.  I know that because he eventually woke me up with Breakfast in bed.  "Good morning beautiful! You're looking cute as always.  Loving the silky heart pajamas!" Conan says, greeting me with my breakfast.  He gently kisses me on my lips.  Just like before, it felt like the prince who kissed Princess Aurora AKA sleeping Beauty, to wake her up.  I smile SO wide when he does that.  "Good morning my handsome and sweet prince!"  I say, as I kiss him back sweetly.  He had made that strawberry cheesecake French toast we had gotten the other day at the restaurant.  He even sprayed whipped cream into a heart shape.  😍 And strawberry syrup for drizzle.   he snuggled me close as I ate my delicious breakfast.  And he made 4 slices of it.  So I fed him some.  And he fed me.  Then we exchanged gifts.  I had gotten him some of his favorite chocolates, a cute stuffed bear with a heart in its arms, that says "XoXo. I love you Bear-y much!" Then a card that says, "you make life sweeter" with a chocolate box drawing. He got me the breakfast, homemade gifts are the best gifts! ESPECIALLY when it is food! And he bought me a balloon, and also my favorite candies. As well as 2 doves attached together, hanging down a heart in between their beaks. Because doves are a sign of love, and it's a pair of doves. They resemble Conan and I therefore. And finally, a card. The card said "Will you be my FOREVER Valentine?" I look up and he had a ring, as he got down on one knee. "Katie, I know it's extremely early into dating, but I TRULY love you and my greatest joy would be making you officially mine for the rest of my life. Would you fulfill that happiness, and say yes?" He asks, nervously. I start crying. Tears quickly fall from my eyes. "YES!" I scream, and jump out of bed and squeeze him tight. "Listen, just so you know, when we've been living with each other practically, for three months, it makes it feel like SO long." I say, still hugging him tight, and smile into his shoulder. "I'm so fricken lucky you are in my life. You have no idea. And I'm thinking you feel the sa,e way, considering you accepted my proposal so fast. Thank you for loving me." Conan says. "You think right. I can't even explain my love for you, or how lucky I am that you are in my life. You treat me like a princess." "Yeah, same here! It's so hard to explain my love for you. Which sucks, cause none of us will ever know how much we are loved. And good, because you are my princess." He says smiling.
We lay in bed cuddling for about an hour, then he asks, "Do you wanna go do something today? Even if we just go out to eat later, or we could stay in, and get food delivered to us later, and we can watch movies as we eat, tonight. "No that would be fine, going out to eat! We could go anywhere that has margaritas. Or we could go to one restaurant to eat, then another for only margaritas." "That sounds awesome! We sharing margaritas?" He asks. "Of course!" I say.  "Sweeet!" Conan says, smirking.  During our day of staying in, leading up to dinner, we baked chocolate cake with strawberry icing.  And also some cookies.  We make a mess but that's most of the fun.  Now, afterwards, that's a different story, when it comes to cleaning up.  We laugh like crazy. "I love you SO much! And it's times like this that create the best, biggest memories! We should take a photo op, using the timer on the phone camera roll!" I suggest. "OMG that would be amazing! And do some Candid laughing pics, etc. and of us stirring things, and all that." He says, agreeing with me. We take a ton of photos. I post them to Instagram with the caption, "Baking sweets with my sweetheart!🥰💛💖 I love making memories with you. Every moment is a memory with you." Soon, we put one more batch of cookies in the oven, and I say, "you know, I'm missing your cuddles right now. What do you say we go snuggle while we wait for the cookies to be done, and watch Just one movie for now, until after dinner?" "Yeah Babe! I'd love to cuddle you. I've been wanting to cling onto you, by wrapping my arms around you from behind, and pressing my cheeks against your chest, but we have been too busy making all this stuff. We never had a moment for that." He says. "Okay. Then let's go over to that couch right there." I suggest. I grab a blanket and set up the Apple TV, to find a good movie. As We scroll through the movies, Conan has an arm wrapped around me, and I rest my head on his chest. "What about if we watch a romantic comedy?" "Yeah, that would be nice! It will be romantic which I'll enjoy, well... Romantically. And we'll get to laugh so hard." "Okay! Romantic Comedy it is." I say. We wanted to find one we have not ever seen before, so we can genuinely laugh. It's kinda like watching a scary movie over and over again, after a while you don't get scared. Because you know what's coming. "Ooh, I heard that one's really good!" Conan says. "Okay, we will watch it. I've heard good things about it too." So I click it, and press play. Within 5 minutes we were already laughing. And then after that, it felt like we would never stop laughing. There were parts where it felt like we busted our guts from laughing so hard.  "Wow, that was a really good movie!"  "Yeah it was.  Ready to eat now?"  "Yeah! I'm hungry."  "Okay, let's go baby."  "Okay."   I get up, following him to the door.  He grabs the keys and we get in the car and we are on our way!  "So what do you think you're gonna get?"  I ask.  "I'm not sure.  I don't even know where we're going to eat.  You said we could go to a place without margaritas, then go to a place afterwards that has them.   Where would you wanna go?"  "Hmmm, how about Applebee's?  Then can we go right across the street from it, for the margaritas? Because I know AppleBee's does have Them, but I know Blue Margarita has mixed flavors.  Applebee's only has one flavor in a margarita.  And I've always wanted to try a combined drink."  "Okay.  That is fine! That sounds cool!"  He agrees.  "Okay cool!"  I say.  "So, I will probably either get a steak or something.  What about you?"  He asks.  "I'm kinda thinking of the cheesy chicken.  Or the fried chicken oriental salad."  "Those sound really good."  "Yeah, both are my favorites off their menu.  And I will say, the steaks over there, are the best I've had at any other restaurant.  The seasoning is just,  mmm, *chef's Kiss!* I Say.  We get there, and look over the menu.  The waiter comes to take our order. "First, what would you like to drink?"  "Uh, water for me please."  I say.  "Same here."  Conan says.  "Okay, and what have you decided on for food?"  He asks.  "I'll have the grilled chicken fiesta chicken please." I say.  "Okay."  Then he looks at Conan, And says, "And For you sir?"  "I'll have the Parmesan Crusted steak, with a side of potatoes.  Can I also get it with Mushrooms on top of the steak please?"  Conan asks, politely.  "Yeah! No problem! I'll get that in for you, and I'll be right back out with your drinks."  The waiter says, smiling wide.  "Awesome thanks!"  We say in unison.   "No problem."  He says, smiling more.  "I've had such an incredible Valentines Day! The best one ever!"  I say.  "Good, I'm glad! I had the best one too!  Because I got to spend it with the best woman!"  "Aww, you're gonna make me cry! And ditto! The reason it is the best for me is because I am spending it with the best man!"  "I love you SO much baby!"  He says, tearing up.  "Awwww, I love you too!  Don't cry."  I say.  We get our food, and dig in immediately.  " mmm! SO delicious! My meal choice was the right one!" I say.  "What about yours? Are you liking your meal?"  I ask.  "Oh yeah! I love my meal! I've never tried the Parmesan crusted steak either.  I've tried their other steaks."  He says.   A while later if eating and talking, we are done.  We get our bill, and tip our waiter.  "Okay, wanna go to Blue Margarita now?"  He asks.  "Of course! I'm SO ready!"  I say with so much enthusiasm.  "Let's go!"  He says, as excitedly and enthusiastically as me.  We drive across, and the waitress comes to greet us immediately.  She asks if we would like any desserts or appetizers.  "Yes, could we get some soapapillas please?"  "Yeah! Sure!"  She writes it down and makes her way into the kitchen.  While she makes our dessert, we look at him the Margarita Options.  "OOOHH! I DEFINITELY want one of the flavors to be pineapple! OOH, What about the orange sunset?  It's got mandarin orange and pineapple in it!"  I say.  "Oooh, I bet that would be a REALLY Tasty!  I'd try that with you!"  He says.  "AWESOME!"  I shout so excitedly.  I can hardly contain my excitement.  The waitress comes back with our decadent dessert.  "There you go! Enjoy! Have you figured out what you want?"  She asks.  "Yeah, we just want an Orange Sunset Margarita please."  "Oh! One of my favorites! That is an excellent choice! I'll have that ready and served to you within 5 minutes."  She says.  "Thanks so much!"  We say.  "You're welcome!"  She says, going on her way to the kitchen again.  Just as she said, we had our drink within 5 minutes.  I take a sip.  "Wow! Just think, this might be the last Margarita I have in a while!  If I do end up becoming pregnant.  I wouldn't be pregnant by now, would I?"  "I don't think so.  We made love literally just the day before yesterday.  The sperm needs time to attach itself to the egg, and to fertilize it."  He explains.  "Okay good."  I say, relieved.   "So drink up, love!"  Conan says, tilting his head to reach the straw, and I do the same.  "This is REALLY delicious! This is my favorite place to get margaritas.  It's official!"  I say.  "I love it too! Like where have these been all my life? I mean, this year? Because I wasn't allowed to drink legally until this year."  Conan Says.  "I know right?! Exactly what I thought.  I've missed out on such an incredible margarita all this time!"  I say.  We finish up, and of course tip the lady that served us.  We then head home, and hop in bed once we arrive back.  "Ahh, Thank you SO much for making this day so incredibly fun! I loved every second of it! Of course I love every second of every day it's you! But today, we really acted goofy and watched funny movies, which also caused us to laugh a lot.  Then going out to eat, and everything.  And HOLY CRAP, YOU PROPOSED TO ME!!! THAT was Definitely my FAVORITE part of this day!  This day will be one of the many I will NEVER forget!"  I partially scream.  But kinda kept quiet, because we were in bed, getting ourselves into sleep mode.  He looks at me in a way that makes me feel butterflies, and smiles with a closed mouth.  "Good, Babe! That was the best and most nerve wracking part of this day for me.  But then after you said yes, it became ONLY the best part!"  Conan says.  "Well I'm glad I was able to ease your nerves."  I say sweetly.  "Me too, sweetie."  He says, as we lay their holding each other close and tight in each other's arms.  Soon, we fall asleep.
