Love of a Lifetime

Song: Love of a Lifetime by Firehouse

*Thanks to LauraGipple for suggesting this song!

Thank you all again! Enjoy!

I guess the time was right for us to say

We'd take our time and live our lives together day by day

We'll make a wish and send it on a prayer

We know our dreams can all come true

With love that we can share

With you I never wonder, Will you be there for me

With you I never wonder, You're the right one for me

"Marry me."

Sylvie whipped her head off of Matt's chest and looked at him with wide eyes. "What...did you just say?"

Matt smiled and pulled her closer to him, "I said marry me."

"Matt, you can't ask that right now?" Grumbled Sylvie as she turned in bed so they were facing each other.

"Why not?"

Sylvie giggled, "You just can't. I mean, number one, we're not dressed. Number two, I look awful; I haven't had a shower or brushed my teeth today."

"Sylvie, you look beautiful. You always do."

"Matt," Sighed Sylvie as she gave him a playful mean look. "You don't have to say that I look beautiful if I really don't."

Matt shook his head and sat up in bed so that they could continue with their very serious conversation, "Sylvie, marry me?"

Sylvie looked at him like he was crazy, "You can't just keep asking me that."

"Is that a yes or no?" Questioned Matt with a very serious look on his face.

"Matt, we can't get married. We've only been dating for a few months. And, what will everyone say? God, just think what Gabby will say when she finds out."

"Sylvie, I've told you this before, I don't care what people say about me. They've talked about me my whole life."

Sylvie looked at the man in front of her and she wasn't sure what to say now. "Matt, it's just not that simple."

"Why isn't it?"

"Matt..."

"No, Sylvie, It is simple for me. I love you, and I want to spend the rest of my life telling you that every time you wake up or go to sleep. You are the only person I want, Sylvie Brett. And, I know this isn't some elaborate proposal or me asking you in front of everyone before a shift at the house, but this is me, Sylvie. I'm as simple as it gets."

Sylvie had tears in her eyes as she listened to him finish. "You really want to marry me?"

Matt nodded and grabbed her small left hand into his, "With all of my heart."

Sylvie lept into his lap and kissed him. "I love you, Matt."

"I love you too, but is that a yes?"

Sylvie laughed and nodded her head, "Yes, Matt. It's a yes."

Matt smiled and turned to his bedside table's drawer where he pulled out a black velvet box. Sylvie held her breath as she watched him open it. This moment didn't feel real for both of them, it was too perfect.

The ring he picked out was a beautiful two and a half-carat teardrop diamond setting. The whole thing sparkled and spoke for itself when he opened the box.

"Matt, that's beautiful." Whispered Sylvie as she tried to catch the spilling tears that were falling down her face.

When he slid the ring on her finger it was a perfect fit; like two puzzle pieces snapping together.

"I love you, Matt."

"I love you too, Sylvie."

Because our love is strong

I finally found the love of a lifetime

A love to last my whole life through

I finally found the love of a lifetime

Forever in my heart, I finally found the love of a lifetime
