Title: A Memorable Dinner
Pairing: Edge x Reader
Word Count: 933
“Okay, that’s it. What’s on your mind?”
You set your cutlery down on your plate before you prop your elbows up on the dinner table, quirking a brow at Edge as you peer over at him sitting opposite you. He stops mid-swig of his beer and meets your eyes, seemingly freezing in time before he swallows it down and gives you a nonchalant shrug in response.
“I don’t know what you me-”
“Honey, come on. You’ve hardly said a word since the main course arrived.” you hum and give him a pointed look, “You can barely keep still in your seat, and you just…I dunno. You seem off. So talk to me.”
Casting him a knowing look, you press him slightly more on the matter. When it’s clear you’re not willing to let it go, Edge lets out a sigh, sets his glass down, and slouches back in his seat slightly. He gives it a moment and mulls his words over before he even thinks about opening his mouth to continue, and you find yourself hoping for the best, yet simultaneously expecting the worst ahead of time.
“Nothing’s wrong, babe. Really. It’s…I’ve been thinking about a few things lately, that’s all.”
Edge’s gaze only wavers from yours when he says the latter, and you feel your brows knit together when he looks away from you. It’s certainly ominous, to say the least. ‘Thinking about a few things’ could range from almost absolutely anything, positive or negative, and it definitely prompts anxiety to spike within you.
Noticing the way your brows knit together, he takes it as a silent plea to elaborate and either set your mind at ease if it turns out to be something positive, or just rip the bandaid off and stop prolonging it if it turns out to be something negative.
“Look, it…it’s been a hell of a year for us, right? Got our own place together, got over a few bumps in the road along the way, talked more about the future together.” Edge begins, and you give him a nod of acknowledgement, “But as time’s gone on, it’s made me realise a thing or two.”
His expression turns solemn now, and it does absolutely nothing to quell the churning you feel deep in your gut or the way you start to tremble with nerves. You wring your hands together in a feeble attempt not to let it show.
“Please don’t tell me you planned this night out just to end things with me.”
Even though you’d done such a stellar job of hiding your nerves up until this point, the quiver in your voice completely and utterly betrays you when you speak up. You clear your throat in a last ditch effort to try masking it, but you’ve already given yourself away. A frown flashes across Edge’s face, and he sits almost bolt upright in his seat once more.
“What? No! No, nothing like that!” he’s quick to dismiss your concerns, even quicker to reassure you with, “It’s the opposite, actually.”
He takes a deep breath, remaining silent for a moment if only to string together everything he wants to say in order to convey everything probably and leave absolutely no room for any doubts from you.
“Over the past year, you’ve made me realise just how lucky I am. How loved I am, because honestly? I never expected to have anyone love me the way you do.” Edge begins, the emotion in his voice beginning to choke him up as he fights to power through, “You brought so many things to my life that I thought I never even deserved, (Y/N).”
Edge cuts himself short for a moment, casting his gaze towards the ceiling in an attempt to quell the storm of emotions currently brewing up inside him. Seeing him choked up like this gets to you, and you feel your own eyes begin to well up with unshed tears as you reach out to take hold of his hand from across the table before you give it an encouraging squeeze, remaining silent to allow him to continue.
“So no, it’s definitely not a breakup. It’s more like…”
He trails off to briefly fidget in his seat as he reaches into his pocket, and it doesn’t take you long to connect the dots and figure out exactly what he’s about to say next. He slips out of his chair and gets down on one knee next to your table, opening a small, velvet box before he angles it towards you.
Your hands fly up to cover your mouth in total shock, and even though you’re beaming from ear to ear, the unshed tears now sliding down your face one by one. You can’t help but feel slightly foolish at the way you’d initially had everything figured out all wrong, but at the same time, the way he’s been acting throughout the night now makes total sense.
“It’s more of a ‘I love you so much, will you spend the rest of your life with me?’ kind of situation.” Edge chuckles and sniffles, looking up at you with the perfect combination of hope and adoration in his eyes, “So…will you marry me?”
You don’t waste a second in responding. With a fervent nod of your head, you rise up out of your seat and crouch down to his height to give him a tender, somewhat hasty kiss before you pull him into a warm embrace, not wanting to let him go.
“This is gonna be the easiest yes of my entire life. Of course I’ll marry you.”
