We were quiet for a minute, his heart beating against mine. I’d thought he’d fallen asleep when he said, “I was going to wait for the right time for this, the absolutely perfect time, but I’m pretty sure that because we almost died today, and we already bought this house, and we’re pregnant, this is it.”
“Okay?”
He sat up and reached for the drawer of the nightstand. He pulled out a box and held it out to me shyly.
“What’s that?” I knew what it was, but I wanted to hear it.
“Open it.”
I opened the box to see the most beautiful ring ever, the exact one I’d circled in all the bridal magazines I’d left lying around the house. It was a large, ethically sourced diamond, mined from sources that followed strict labor regulations and environmental standards.
Hey, when you had specific taste, you needed to be…specific.
“Oh my God! It’s gorgeous! It’s perfect!”
Wes’s eyes sparkled as he slid the ring onto my finger. “I can’t imagine spending another day without you. I want to grow old with you, have a family with you, share my life wit
h you. Will you marry me? I love you so much.”
I beamed at him. “I love you more. And by the way, the answer is yes. Hell yes.”
Wes clasped my hand, admiring the way the ring sparkled against my skin. He leaned down and whispered to my stomach, “An ethically sourced, conflict-free engagement ring. Now I’ve heard everything, little buddy!”
I giggled, then leaned down to kiss the man I loved.
