| Yesterday was all sorts of adorable |

I'm not normally so gushy but now that my head is a bit clearer (haha Jazzy you know what I mean) I'm going to catalogue my entire day yesterday so I remember it forever.
He normally sleeps over but on Wednesday night he did not, alas. He came over Thursday morning around 10 or so because we had plans for a "date day" since we haven't been just us in awhile and we needed it. He was abnormally pissy which he can be when I'm not getting my shit together and there's a schedule he has planned, which I figured was up, since I was lolly gagging around and half dressed until 11:30ish and he wanted to leave at noon. I was too busy dicking around and talking to Jazzy.
"Babe... I want to leave at noon and well, you're mostly naked. What I need from you is to put on... clothes." He told me
I replied. "Well that's not going to work for me."
"Well it's going to have to."
I did but I was still busy talking to Jazzy and sort of ignoring him but he finally dragged me away and I signed off the computer at 11:59 am. So take that.
We took the bus because he likes it, headed down to the Art Institute. I sat with him like we always do, with my head on his shoulder and my arm wrapped in his. It was fairly warm out for winter time in the city so we were a dressed in lighter coats than usual. We got to the art institute by 12:30 pm and we spent about two hours there looking around at the various arts, hand in hand. He gets annoyed sometimes because I make all the art sexual but I was behaving for him because he was cranky earlier. He started to relax a bit when we decided to have a little lunch that he packed before going to the Museum of Science and Industry. We decided not to go to the Field Museum because three museums in one day is exhausting.
He suffered through the MSI for me, which was sweet, so we bought some Space food to take home because he didn't believe me it's delicious. He has yet to open it and venture to try it, but I ate mine and didn't die. We'll see if he bites or not. He actually enjoyed looking at the U-505 German sub so he couldn't complain too much. When we were finished he said we were going to go to Cleo's, because I'm obsessed with them. Even though it's just a pub it's got some pretty good food (and a bloody mary bar at brunch!).
We had a nice dinner and since it was still fairly nice outside, decided to walk around a bit. Then he asked if I wanted to get dessert and since I won't ever turn that down, I agreed. We headed out to Swirlz to get some delicious cupcakes. When we got there, he was being all adorable and now in hindsight he seemed a bit nervous. I started looking over the choices deciding what I wanted but before I could really digest anything a girl came out with a little box of cupcakes. He takes my hand and he slipped the ring inside it, before opening the box to reveal four cupcakes with a word on each: Will You Marry Me?
Poor guy! My immediate reaction was to bury my face in my hands and just kind of lean into him and cry. I hadn't been expecting it, it caught me completely off guard and I was slightly amused because Jazzy and I had been joking about it earlier that day (I said I was going to make him walk down the aisle dressed like Captain America and I was going to make my wedding dress red and gold like Iron Man).
He finally managed to say "Um is that a yes?"
To which I only responded with a nod, still sort of wrapped in his arms crying which made him laugh.
And now, we're getting married. It'll be a long engagement though, we're in no rush. |
