You had to work a double shift and had to go food shopping afterwards so you got home quite late. When you got home your boyfriend, Nicholas Latifi had already fallen asleep on the sofa.

You grabbed a blanket to put over him before heading to your room.

You grabbed your pyjamas and headed to freshen up.

Once you had sorted yourself out and cleaned yourself up a bit, you felt better.

You quickly dried your hair as best as you could without your hairdryer. You didn't want to wake Nicky up, he was always working so when he was at home you tried to get him to sleep as much as possible, even though it was quite hard. He would always be worrying about you when he was home and you hated that he did. You would rather he worried about himself first. You could take care of yourself.

You started walking back to your room, only stopping outside your room when you heard some mumbling coming from inside.

"Come on Nick, you can do this. It really can't be that hard to do. Come on, practice makes perfect. Ok so you just have to look her in the eyes and ask her. Ok see it's not that hard. How do I do it? I just ... No that wouldn't be right. I'll wait for her to get home and then I'll just do it," he was muttering.

You quietly opened the door and saw him looking frantically in his pockets for something. You saw him laughing as he found it in his pocket only to gasp as he pulled out a box.

Nicholas jumped when he heard your gasp.

As he turned around you saw the ring in the box.

"What is that?" was what came out, despite what you were thinking.

"H-how long have you been standing there?" he asked.

"Only about 2 minutes. What was it you wanted to ask?"

"Erm, I had this plan but, um, yeah."

You could tell Nicky was getting flustered as you walked up to him.

As soon as you got to him you pulled him into a hug.

"Whatever it is you want to say just remember, I love you. Today, tomorrow and forever."

"Ok, ok," Nicholas took a deep breath before carrying on, "Will ... will ... will you marry me?"

He closed his eyes as he waited for your answer.

"Yes. Yes. Of course," you replied, starting to cry.

You were both really happy and he tackled you into a hug on the bed where you both very quickly fell asleep.
