And I loved it.
My birthday fell on a Monday this year (3/17), so my then-boyfriend and I planned to go to Disneyland the day before to celebrate (3/16). I got up at 6:30 to start getting ready for the day, and while I was in the bathroom straightening my hair, my BF came in. I was miffed because it was early, and I'm not really an early riser. He saw me, and just started smiling. I looked at him with a snarky look and said, "What?!" and he said nothing. He just came up behind me and gave me a really sweet hug. I was like, what are you doing? I'm trying to do my hair! And he pulls out a ring box.
I swear, I looked like such a dope, mouth hanging and everything.
I started crying, and it asked, "are you serious? I'm the bathroom? I look like a mess!"
He said, "this is how I want to see you every morning. You look perfect to me."
He then got down on one knee (after banging it on the tile first), took my hand, and asked me to marry him. I of course said yes! He put the ring on my finger, and it was perfect, if not a bit too big. I'm waiting to get my rings back (because he bought me a bridal set) on Saturday, and then I need to wait to start planning and focus on school! We are having a two year engagement so that he can finish up police academy, his FTO program, and probation, and so that I can graduate from my bachelor program. Once those things are finished up, we will be about a year out from when we want to get married. Yay!
