Was that a good 'oh my God' or a bad 'oh my god'? Adrian couldn't help it, for a brief moment he wondered if her reception would be negative or positive. What if she felt they weren't ready? What if this was too overwhelming for her, what with the start of the season and all? He hadn't really thought about what he would do if she said no.... she wouldn't say no, would she? He wouldn't say no to him.
Just as quickly as his mind had raced, his doubts washed away as he took in her face fully. It looked.... she looked happy. Or about to be. Not that grimacing kind of shocked, but surprised, anticipating kind that lead to positive things.
Well, he wasn't quite sure what Maggie was thinking. All he knew was that he wanted to do this, to show her how much she mattered to him. What better way could you do that than with a nice, big engagement
ring? And some words from the heart.
"Maggie," his voice came how shaky, despite feeling confident inside. So, he closed his eyes and shook his head. None of that. This was important to get right. "Maggie," Adrian started again, setting his shoulders back and his posture straight. "I have never felt so happy, so right about being with another person in my entire life. You make me feel... complete, so I don't have to worry about anything else as long as your with me. I want-- I think I can be a good father for Josef, and any other kids you might want, or not to have." He paused, smilingly briefly at the thought of how good-looking their children would be because of her. "I just-- I feel so lucky because I still don't understand how anyone could let you go. You are an amazingly wonderful and beautiful person, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you, if you'll allow it.
Adrian made sure to open up the small box in his hands before saying his last part. "So, Magnolia Lisbet Brand, will you marry me?"
