Nygmobblepot Engagement/wedding fic

Ed was always a hopeless romantic. It was just his nature.

And Oswald loved every second of it.

That night, Ed sets everything up just perfect. The table settings, the music, the lighting.

Perfect.

And it seems to get even more beautiful when Oswald walks into the room.

"What is all this?" Oswald gasps in shock and awe. 

"What? I can't have a romantic dinner with my beautiful boyfriend?"

"Ed...stop, I'm blushing..." Oswald giggles as Ed leads him to his seat. Ed pulls out Oswalds chair and helps him in. Oswald blushes again when Ed leans in and kisses him sweetly for a brief moment before getting in his own seat.

"This dinner looks delicious..." Oswald says sweetly, smiling at Ed like a loon.

"Thank you, I cooked."

"You could've had Olga help you."

"Nonsense. I wanted to."

Oswald chuckles lightly and digs into his dinner.

About an hour later dinner was finished and Ed and Oswald went to the living room with a bottle of wine.

"Tonight was perfect, Edward. Thank you."

"No need to thank me. I love you."

"Oh, Ed...how I love to hear you say that..."

"You're probably going to love what I'm saying next even more..." Ed says as he stands up, staring at Oswald for a moment before dropping to one knee. Oswald lets out a small gasp of shock, staring at Edward like he was trying to figure out if he was dreaming or not.

"Ed..."

"Let me speak. Oswald, on the time that I've known you, you've made my life so much happier. I love you with everything in me. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot, will you marry me?" Ed says warmly, smiling that beautiful crooked teeth smile. Oswald doesn't say anything, just sits there in total shock.

"Oswald?" Ed starts to get worried. Is Oswald okay?....

"Oh, Ed...oh my God..I...what?..."

"Oswald, will you marry me?"

Oswald smiles a slow disbelieving I've-found-Nirvana smile, and breathily whispers four soft words

"Oh my God, yes..."

Ed sighs in relief, sitting back down beside Oswald, who is quick to attack Ed with kisses. Ed chuckles softly, returning the kisses.

"Don't you wanna see the ring I picked for you?"

"Oh, of course." Oswald says quietly, slightly embarrassed.

Ed reaches into his jacket pocket and produces a small green ring box. Inside is the most beautiful purple diamond Oswald has ever seen.

"It's beautiful..." Oswald says shakily, trying his best not to cry but still some tears have run down his face.



"I love you so much Oswald Cobblepot..." Ed whispers softly, pressing his forehead against Oswalds. They lay side-by-side in the gigantic king sized bed. Oswald nuzzles into Eds chest, inhaling more of the scent of Edward Nygma. Ed holds Oswald tight, still eternally grateful for Oswalds existence.

I would be lost without you...
