On Love

Last week, a patient saw the necklace I was wearing, a gift from Green Eyes. I said to her, "It came in a little blue box." She says back to me, "Oh. Did you wish it was a ring?" When I got home from work, I told Green Eyes the story, scoffing at the notion I was the kind of girl that expeceted a ring.

Today, we went to his Tia's house. She was throwing me a Halloween/Birthday party. She had the whole house decorated. We all ended up in the backyard and were taking family pictures. Ordinarily, Green Eyes doesn't like taking pictures but he wanted for us to take a picture. Just as we were posing, he stops, pulls out a little blue box, and gets down on one knee. My heart stopped and I heard him say, "Babe, will you marry me?" Oh my god.

Him. Green Eyes. The Green Eyes. The one I pined for years ago. The one whose car I keyed in a fit of rage. He asked me to marry him.

I'm in disbelief. I'm dumbfounded. He wants to marry me. On the ride home, he admitted that he was nervous even though he knew what I was gonna say. The rest of the way home, I could only think, "Oh my god."

Oh my god. I'm gonna marry Green Eyes.

love
