“I know I should get down on one knee but I thought that you would appreciate the cuffs a little more. Harley Marley, you are the love of my life. I know we haven’t been dating that long, but as you once said, this has been in motion for years. There has never been anyone before you and I know that I will never want anyone but you for as long as I live. I want to help you and Peyton with your businesses and anything else that you dream up in that perfect head of yours. I want to have a family with you and grow old with you. You’ve already made sure that everyone knows I’m yours when you kissed me in your café. Now, I want to make sure that everyone knows that you’re mine, with this.”
I pull the diamond ring out from pocket as I finish my speech. I hold it up for her to see and watch as she looks wide-eyed between the ring and my face. Her eyes are wide and glassy as they stare back at me.
“What do you say, Harley? Will you marry me, baby?”
“Oh my god, yes. Yes!”
She throws herself at me, forgetting about the handcuffs and we tumble back onto the bed. I slip the ring onto her finger and we both beam at each other as we stare into each other’s eyes.
“I love you, Harley.”
“I love you too, Cooper.”
Her lips meet mine then but before we can get too lost in each other, Harley’s phone starts to ring. She pulls away, rolling off of me to check it and answers when she sees that it’s Peyton.
I kiss her neck while she rolls back to me and lays on top of my chest. Peyton and her both start to squeal and I know that Harley has told her that we’re engaged. I smile into her skin as I listen to the happiness in my girl’s voice. I promise myself that I’m going to spend the rest of my life keeping it there.
