Just as Ashley and I were about to leave the hospital, he had a message from Chloe saying that's she's been caught up in something and still isn't home. Ashley looked quite relieved which puzzled me.
Me: "why do you look relieved?"
Ashley: "I need your opinion on something?"
Me: "go ahead"
Ashley: "you know how Chloe and I love each other and we're not actually married or engaged"
Me: "yeah, if I'm following this correctly which I think I am you're asking me what I think about you asking her to marry you?"
Ashley: "yeah. Seeing Janette and Aljaz today made me realise that I love Chloe and I wanna make an honest woman out of her and that life's way too short not to. Do you think she'll say yes?"
Me: "of course she will. She adores you. Can I be bridesmaid?"
Ashley: "we'll let Chloe decide on that."
Me: "ok. Can I help you pick the ring?"
Ashley: "I was hoping you would. You know what I'm like with jewellery. You won't say anything to Chloe will you?"
Me: "I really do. I know we all agreed not to have secrets but this is a really exciting one that definitely stays between us. Ahhh I cannot wait to see her reaction"
