A red bandana covered my eyes. "Just tell me where we are going!"
"No, it's a suprise!"
I sighed at held tight to his hand so I wouldn't fall. We definitely were outside. The cold fall air blew around us. After a few minutes he stopped me.
"Okay, count to ten then you can take it off."
I slowly counted like he asked me to then slipped the bandana off. My eyes focused. We were in the middle of a football stadium. My feet were on the 50 ft yard line. I gasped and cupped my hands over my mouth when I saw him there on one knee. He addressed me by my full name.
"I met you and I knew at that moment you were the one. Those sparking eyes and your contagious smile made me fall hard. We've been through everything together. Thick and thin. And I would love nothing more to spend the rest of my life with you if you'd let me. Will you marry me?"
My eyes started to tear up and I shook my head and smiled. He slid the diamond ring onto my finger and I gently held the sides of his face and kissed him.
"I wouldn't think of spending the rest of eternity with anyone else. I love you."
"I love you too baby." He smiled.
I jumped when the first firework went off. More followed after it. I laughed and looked at him. Fireworks and a football field? I don't know how he did it, but it was perfect. He held me close and we watched the fireworks till they died out.
I love this one! Joey
