New Beginnings, Old Tales

14 - Gibbs

I was scared at what Talia was going to say. I couldn't read her expressions. "You did this Leroy? By yourself?" She asked the tone of surprise in her voice "I had a little bit of help from your brother when it came to choosing your favourite meal and a little help from Tony who lit the candles before we came up but other than that yep, all by myself" I smiled slightly. "Then it's beautiful" she grinned. Through out the night I was a true gentlemen not once interrupting her and answering when she asked me questions. "Talia, there's a question I'd like to ask you" I said once we had finished eating. "Okay..." she hummed "I'd like to ask you to officially become my girlfriend?" I asked after 5 minutes of silence. Talia sat there in shock, unsure of what to say. "Okay" she nodded after a while. I texted Tony and Timothy saying that she said yes to being my girlfriend and knowing Tony, by now the whole world knew. I was beyond happy.
