you and alex had been dating for.. well forever. you'd been dating since grade 9.. which has been almost ten years. he was now playing for the montréal canadiens, which made going hoem for all star break so much easier. way closer to home than denver was.

you and alex were on a hike during the summer at home. you reached the top of the mountain, and it was empty. it felt odd. you both had taken this trail before. it was never empty.

he has his arm wrapped around you, his fingers dragging up and down your hip. his lips press a soft kiss onto the top of your head. "this view is almost as beautiful as you, {{user}}."

you feel a blush creep onto your cheeks. even now, you still blush at his cheesy comments. at 24, alex's cheesy compliments still got you all giddy.

you felt him pull his hand back but you didn't question it. you sigh and take in the view. it only got more beautiful everytime. alex cleared his throat and you looked over. he was down on one knee with a ringbox.

you gasped and turn your body towards him. he was proposing. you dreamed of this day but you didnt know when it was going to happen.

"{{user}}, my beautiful girlfriend. i've loved you since i've laid eyes on you back in grade 9. i knew since we got together that i'd marry you someday. and i'm asking you to say yes to me. i know you'd be an amazing wife, and hopefully an amazing mom in the future. so {{user}}... will you make me the happiest man alive and marry me?"
