My boyfriends parents had just decided to send him away. He was going to a boys ranch in Waco, Texas until he was 18. He has had a rough couple of years and they didn’t want his rebellion anymore. So off to Waco it was.

He snuck over to my house the night he found out so he could say good-bye to me. I wasn’t ready to let him go so he spent the whole night with me.

We had gotten very “intimate” for most of the night but got really tired (of course). So we talked. About everything. Deep, casual, embarrassing stories, everything. After finishing our conversation he laid my head on his chest.

“Baby?”
“Yes?”
“Could I talk you into standing up?”
“Yea sure do you need something?”
“No just stand up for me”

I was really confused but I stood up and he walked over to me and wrapped his arms around my waist, leaned down and kissed my neck.

“I have a question for you” he whispered
“Shoot.”
“I love you Veronica Renee Peterman. I want to be with you forever. I want you to be Veronica Renee Graeber one day. I want to spend the rest of my life with you.”

At this point he got down on his knee and took my hand. I blushed and looked at him as he smiled.

“Marry me?”

I took his face in my hands and kissed him while he was at my feet then nodded my head. I asked if he was being serious and he told me that as soon as he got to Waco he would buy me an engagement ring and send it to me.

I love him so much and I dont regret saying yes.
