He helped George inside the house, grabbing his bags and books (homework). Then, they spent the rest of the day catching up on what they did that week and what they were excited about for the following week. It was all normal until Clay randomly got up off the couch and left to the kitchen.

"What are you going, babe?" George asked as the blonde tucked away into the nice kitchen. There was no answer, but instead a clattering of pans. George rolled his eyes; He's really going to make dinner. That's the first. He laughed to himself and turned on the TV.

When an amazing smell of dinner wafted into George's nose, Clay came back into the living room. "Dinner's ready!" He had the widest smile one could have, but he looked a little nervous.

"Okay, I'll be right there." George shouted, turning off the TV and getting off the couch.

As George entered the dining room, he saw a bouquet in the center of the table and the plates had been dished up with delicious lasagna and salad. "You made all this for me?"

"Yes! I hope it tastes good; I almost overcooked the lasagna." He laughed at his previous mistake and pulled a chair out for George. "Come on, come eat."

Dinner passed with ease, the meal was great, and George made sure to complement his boyfriend too. Soon enough, their plates were bare with only a few scraps of what was left of dinner. Though, dinner didn't end there. They didn't get up to end the night with a movie and cuddles like usual.

Instead, when George went to get up but was stopped when Clay placed his hand on his. Clay looked nervous as stared at the hands. "Are you okay, Clay." The blonde looked up with him, a closed smile appearing on his lips.

"Um, I want to give you something." He said, standing up from his chair and pulling something from his pocket. He grabbed George's hand with his own free hand. "I want to give you something to remind you of a promise." He then took his hand from his pocket, revealing a black box.

George's eyes widened.

"Uh, I want to promise you, that one day I will ask you to marry me." He opened the box revealing a sapphire promise ring. He plucked it from the box and brought it up to George's fingers, "As we are learning to be adults, in few years' time, I promise I will ask you to marry me. Promise. I love you, George."

George was crying now, speechless. Clay slid the ring on his finger, and they pulled each other in for a hug. After the hug, Clay pulled away, still holding his boyfriend's hand, and started to drag George away outside.

They walked down the sidewalks of the small community that Clay lived in. George was smiling excitedly, and Clay just kept pulling him along. "Where are we going?" George begged to know.

"We're almost there... Wait! Here!"

And there they were. It wasn't the same field, but it sure did look like it. The yellow flowers covered the grass and trees the surrounded them were pine. Though, there was a large clearing. The opening showing a gorgeous sunset. George gasped at the sight; it was perfect.

"I love you." tears coming back into his eyes out of pure happiness.

Clay faced him and held his hands. He mindlessly rubbed the sapphire jewel ring, while looking into George's eyes.

"I love you too, George."

They both leaned in together in unison, kissing blissfully in the golden rays of the sun, the light wind chilling the heat in their faces.

When they separated, they spent the rest of the night, sitting on the dewy grass and watching the yellow and orange hues set in the horizon and the stars cover the sky in the twilight-colored void.

That was the day, George felt:

the most loved,

the most grateful,

the most known.

I hope you liked the ending, I'm sorry that the chapters started to dwindle in words (not long enough for my liking at least). But I just started to lose a little bit of interest and motivation to write the book haha. But hey! It's done and complete now! And I'm overall proud of how it came out!

I think I'm going to take a break for writing, try to reset my brain and get ready for whatever else I will write next. I will be still active here, replying to comments and giving updates!

Anyway! That's all for now! Thank you so much for reading! Bye bye!!!
