"Wow!" I smiled as I laid back to catch my breath

"Now are you ready for your gifts?" He asked

"Yes. I just couldn't control myself tonight, you looked very much edible." I said

When we finished with dinner and my mother and father left with the kids—meaning they're at Lauren's' house by the way, I attacked Chris right away.

He chuckled lightly as he got up and pulled some basketball shorts on.

"I did look pretty sharp—I know." He confidently said

He went to the closet and reached in for a bag.

"I'm not good at gift giving so excuse what I picked up." He said as he passed the bag to me.

It was heavy so I know he stuffed everything in here.

I wrapped the sheet around my top half and smiled widely as I dived into the bag. I felt like I was reaching in a grab bag, pulling anything out and being surprised with what I picked.

The first gift was a red lingerie piece, "This was why your gifts were supposed to be opened before the sex so you could wear it for me." He said

It's only been 5 weeks but I recently double checked with my doctor to know if 5 weeks were fine.

I smiled, "Let's not act like I can't still slip it on and go for round 3." I said

"I mean you can but.. I want you to finish." He said with a nervous smile then looked down at his fingers.

He's so nervous as if I'm going to dislike anything he gets me. I'm grateful for whatever.

I reached back in and pulled out a big box that said Nike on the front.

"Uh, you wear boots and heels most of the time so I thought to get you something you don't have much of." He said as I opened the box

I smiled widely to myself. Those are something that I did need more of in my collection.

"I love them, baby." I said

He nodded and watched intently as I continued pulling things out. I pulled out a pretty shining necklace with matching earrings.

"This is gorgeous, Chris." I said and observed it

"Yeah..." he said and continued watching me

I pulled out some Victoria's Secret perfume and I think that was it.

"Thank you, baby. I love everything! I don't know why you were nervous as if I wouldn't like everything." I said to him

"That's not it. Look in the bag." He said

I looked to him then looked back into the bag. There was a small golden box in the corner of the bag.

I looked at him then back at the box. I grabbed it and pulled it out, tossing the bag on the floor.

He begin to pace as I opened it.

The golden box revealed a ring that glistened. It was a pretty silver ring that was in the shape of a square with diamonds surrounding the outline. The ring actually matched the necklace and earrings.

"A promise ring?" I smiled

He slightly frowned while shaking his head.

He took a deep breath and wiped his hands off and kneeled in front of me.

"I love you so much, and I can't imagine life without you. You came into my life during a time where I was so desperate and uplifted me into a better man. Not only does this ring solidify the fact that I want to be with you for eternity but also that no matter what that you'll stay with me through thick and thin, regardless of how messed up things sometimes become. India you mean the world to me and I can't imagine my world without you in it, will you marry me?" He asked
