“first of all, you are so beautiful and i love you so much,” he commented, letting himself kiss his cheek before turning ozzy around to face him, “second i need you to get away from any sharp objects by coming with me into the lounge.” jude added, taking the knife away from ozzy’s hand and leading him into the lounge. this was it. the moment that will change everything in their lives as jozzy, besides the fact that they were actually jozzy. but this is going to be something that hopefully both of them wouldn’t regret.
jude let go of ozzy’s hand and stood in front of him, not feeling nervous as he initially thought he would, but more calm with the situation, knowing that he would have ozzy as his husband is something to be excited for. “oscar knox, we’ve met many months ago at a place of which we described to be our happy place, which was seattle. since then we’ve been through a lot of things together, jealously, other relationships and even poligamy but somehow through all of that we still managed to be together and i couldn’t be more thankful for you choosing me,” he paused, smiling ever so brightly before getting onto one knee, “so, my dear puppy, i don’t how to say this without being cheesy but will you marry me?” he asked, taking out the box from his back pocket and opening it to reveal a ring, one of which was from a family line of generations and now going to be placed upon ozzy’s finger if he says yes.
oscar giggled. it was so random and out of nowhere that jude stated saying that, and even though they complimented each other all the time, it was still so amazing to hear those words from his boyfriend. he blushed a little, kissing jude’s cheek back and letting go of the knife. “i love you too, you know?” he replied, following jude into the living room without any further questions.
he sat on the couch, his knees close to each other and his hands nervously holding onto them. as soon as jude began speaking, ozzy started shaking. he knew where this was going. but he wasn’t going to interrupt jude, no, that’s be rude. he let the blonde speak what he wanted to speak and let his heart out and to every word, more tears pooled under ozzy’s eyes. as he was called ‘puppy’ by his ducky, all of the tears rolled down. he instantly began to wipe them away with his thumbs. then jude asked the actual question and oscar felt a lump in his throat. the room turned silent for a few moments. “i... look, don’t get me wrong. i love you and i want to marry you,” he began in a very low tone, “i really do.” oz smiled at jude. “but i want you to be sure of who you’re marrying, you know? so i think i should talk to you about... about mason.” he sighed, looking down. “i know i should’ve told you a while ago, but mason and i... we were engaged. we were engaged right before we broke up. because i couldn’t handle it.” he couldn’t control the tears anymore. “because i was afraid it was too much, you know? but with you... i mean, i’m scared to hurt you like i hurt her. i don’t want to hurt you because i love you and i want to marry you,” oscar finished. “that being said, yes, i will marry you. if you still want to.”
