Moonlight Love♥

They swayed lovingly muttering absolutely beautiful words to each other while dancing gracefully under the moon brightly lighting up the night sky.  Pheobe and Xavier were on the roof of one of the tallest buildings in Chicago celebrating being together for 3 years.  In the middle of the roof-top deck was a table for two.  Rose petals, tea lites, and a rose bouquet were all strategically placed to make room for the dinner that Xavier had prepared for the special occasion.  In his planning, he had made sure that everything would match perfectly.  Adding to the romantic setting were twinkling lights that lined the perimeter of the deck. 

"Wow, I can't believe you did all of this yourself!"  Pheobe said to Xavier as he pulled the chair out for her so they could enjoy the magnificent meal he had prepared.  On the simple red plates was a succulent chicken breast stuffed with pesto, cheese, and spinach.  Also on the plate were potatoes with an aroma that made Pheobe's tongue water, mixed vegetables, and a simple pasta.

"I was nervous that it wasn't going to turn out the way I had planned, but everything worked out."  Xavier smiled as he bent down and kissed Pheobe on the forehead and pushed her chair in.

"You did perfectly! I had no idea you were going to do something so elaborate. I wouldn't want to spend this night any other way."

"I wanted everything to be perfect because you deserve that and so much more.  Now, tell me what you think of the food."  Xavier urged Pheobe to taste test the food he had spent much time planning and preparing over the past week.  She willingly and excitedly took the first bit of the chicken.

"This is FABULOUS! I had no idea you could cook so well, babe."  She complimented him.

"It wasn't actually that hard."  He paused, "surprisingly!"

Pheobe continued to enjoy the wonderful food her boyfriend had prepared for her.  Xavier also enjoyed the food, but could not keep his eyes of Pheobe, as usual.  Her long, dirty blonde hair that complemented her bright green eyes lured him in.  Even though it was a normal circumstance, he knew one of the main reasons he could not keep his eyes off of her tonight was because of what was coming next.  Once Pheobe was finished eating, Xavier went to grab their dessert that he had also made himself. 

"And dessert is tiramisu that I also made.  I want to know how you like it!"  He said as he gently set the receptacle in front of her.  She carefully untied the red and white bow he had added to make the presentation look professional.  As she began opening the box, Xavier could feel his stomach turn and thought those few seconds were taking hours.  Finally, she opened the box completely and her jaw dropped.

"I... OH MY GOD!"  She screamed as she stared into the box amazed by what she saw.  Looking to her right, she saw Xavier standing next to her and then down on one knee.

"Pheobe Jeanette Rivers, will you make me the happiest man in the world and be my bride?" He calmly asked her. 

"Y.. Yes.. YES!"  She ran into his arms and he picked her up and twirled her around.

"I love you, baby."

"I love you, too! More than you know."

They continued to embrace as he ran his fingers through her hair.  They danced around the roof-top completely in love.  Pheobe clung tight around his neck and looked up at the starlit sky that was hardly ever visible in the city and knew this was a paradisaical way to spend the night that would change their lives.
