So, Derek hadn't gone through with it the first time. For no other reason than he had spent that time comforting his girlfriend. She had needed that more than him manipulating the situation for himself. They had curled up together that night, letting her hold tight so he wouldn't vanish. And he did not mind that.
But, now...now was the time. He didn't do it on Valentine's Day because that came off as cliche as all hell. And Mia deserved a whole lot better than that. So Derek was going over his plans in his head, which had him pacing back and forth. Dinner, check. Wine, check. Ring, wait....where was the ring? He began patting his pockets, of good there it was. Ring, check. Girlfriend, not yet but she'd be home soon.
