My sweet love from the moment I looked into your gorgeous eyes I knew there was something extraordinary special, something phenomenal between us. There was something that you feel in an instant like two magnets. I felt something that was beyond the limitations of logical reasoning, but then again nothing in this lifetime ever felt reasonable except from me meeting you and having you in my life. I'm so thankful to have you and the twins in my life and I can't begin to describe how lucky I feel. I love you Brinley and I want to spend the rest of our lives trying to show you just how much I do. Will you marry me?

The sand melds under your feet as you walk, sandals swinging in your hand, the wind kissing your melanated skin and the sunset highlighting your already blinding smile. You were the definition of beautiful, his own real life walking goddess that he could touch and love. And All he could do was stumble behind your beautiful form with a dopey smile on his face, accidentally setting little sparks into the air. Damn you are so beautiful...and so out of his league. How did he score someone as amazing as you?
He comes to a stop, reaching into his pocket to fiddle with the silver ring. Is this the right time for this? What if you said no? What if you left him for someone else? You were the light of his day, his little spark plug and he honestly wouldn’t know what to do without you. No he had to do this now. All of today’s events lead up to this finale, the arcade, the spa treatment, the skinny dipping off a waterfall and getting in trouble with the manager of a restaurant needed to be topped off with the sweet unity of you two.
“Kam, babe you good?” His head snaps up to meet your concerned eyes and his heart flutters again. God he was such a simp. Just looking at you made him feel better immediately. He gives you his signature smile before lightly placing his hand on your face and caressing the soft flesh, your lipgloss catching the light of the sun and making your lips look even more kissable than they already were. You can’t help but lean into it and give him a soft smile, kissing his palm. His smiles grows and takes him everything in him to attack you with kisses.
“You’re so pretty.....my pretty baby.” He whispers as he kisses the crown of your forehead. You giggle and place your hand against his face, your arcylics matching his golden eyes and the lightning bolt in his hair. “You’re not that bad looking yourself, sir”
He scoffs, turning away from your hand and crossing his arms, the smile still present on his face. “Not that bad? Have you seeen me? I’m hot stuff ya know.”
“No of course, of course. How could i forget.” You roll your eyes and grab his hand, dragging him behind you along the lulling tide. He laughs a little before jogging up to your side so you could properly hold hands. “C’mon hot stuff, you still have something to show me.”
The reminder, sets his nerves on fire again. The previous nervousness of the reality of the situation sets in and he gulps loudly but feigns confidence by pulling you forward with a certain haste he didn’t have before. You saw right through his facade but made no comment on the sudden change in his behavior, trusting that he would tell you later what was bothering him.
At one point, he tells you to close your eyes, his grip tightening around your hand as he continues to pull you forward, oddly promising to not go Hollywood serial killer on you. Your eyebrows furrow and you resist the urge to smack his arm. Who the hell makes a remark like that out of the blue. He kisses your forehead again before continuing the voyage to this mysterious spot.
Finally, you guys come to a stop in front of a garden arbor infused with fairy lights and beautiful flowers, each one with a different meaning to emphasized how much you meant to him. Instantly he gets to works, mumbling something along lines of ‘don’t open your eyes” and “i’ll drop my croissant”. You stand in there in confused silence, a smile creeping up on your face as you try to piece together the reference he threw at you.
He runs to the garden arbor, desperately looking for the end so he could put it in his mouth. He almost breaks the poor thing, wildly moving around the flowers on the bottom, before finding the end and sticking it in his mouth to watch the whole thing light up. A bundle of pride blooms in his chest as he watches the way the flowers compliment each other while also individually standing out to catch your attention. You were going to love it and that thought alone fills anew wave of confidence in him.
He pulls out the ring and smugly walks to you, only to be snatched back to the garden arbor. The look of audacity directed towards the lights cord would’ve made any living creature squirm in fear. And then it hit him. Son of a bitch....he was suppose to bring an extension cord. How could he forget it! It was one of the most important things on the list! The fact that he made a list and still forgot it burned any last confidence he had in this plan. He groans in frustration, trying to think of a new plan as quick as possible.
There was no way this was happening right now. This is nothing as he imagined the proposal to go. You were going to cry out of joy and cling onto him while a rainbow appeared over you guys head and two zebras ran out of the woods from behind you guys while two monkey were on them, singing the Macarena. It was an unrealistic fantasy but a boy can dream right?
His reality only became worse when he realized he didn’t have the ring. His heart drops to his stomach and his face pales. Instantly he’s on his knees, frantically searching through the sand to find the little sliver jewelry.
It felt like an eternity before he found the ring, jumping up with a cry of relief. He grips it with two hands, holding it victoriously. His disleveled look making him look like a madman. “Y/N OPEN YOUR EYES-”
He turns to find you on one knee holding a sliver ring of your own. It sat neatly in between the red cushions, gleaming proudly under the fairy lights. He gasps as tears threaten to spill over. A shy smile adorns your face as you take his hand in yours.
“Denki Kaminari, my best friend and the love of my life, will you marry me?” He nods rapidly, holding his mouth to try the muffle the sniffles coming out of his mouth. You slip the ring up his finger, placing a soft kiss against his knuckles. “Yes god yes”
All of sudden, you’re in his arms, spinning as he places kisses all over your face. Laughter fills the air as he continues with his menstrums before finally letting your feet touch the floor. “Excuse me sir, I think you’re forgetting something” you say as you put your hand in the air, a smile matching his as he release you far enough to place the ring on your finger.
“This is th best day of my life” he whispers against your lips.
“Let me make it even better.” You lean in and catch his lips in a slow soft kiss, his arms pulling you close once more to his body and your arms wrapping around his neck. The effect of your body pressed against him, your lips moving in sync and the thought of the matching rings glittering under the lights have denki sparking out a powerful surge of electricity, lightning everything up and overstimulating the fairy lights causing them to burst in a beautiful rain of glass.
You break apart to run from the shards of glass. Fortunately neither one you were hurt so you laugh it off, walking hand in hand with the new matching sliver rings.
Bonus
Later that week after you guys finally came home from the trip, the bill was sent to your house. It being almost 700 dollars because of the damage of the lights and harassment of the employees.
“Harassment of employees?? You ask a guy whether a tomato is a fruit or vegetable and he calls it harassment. Ughhh...it was genius question too.” He says with a pout. You laugh, kissing his pouty lips away.
“Oh but look they sent the engagement pictures.” Among them was the picture of you guys kissing under the garden arbor as he short circuited only the lights at the same time. “Oh god it’s beautiful.”
“They could’ve told me my hair looked crazy.” He says trying to fix his hair now.
“C’mon you big baby. We’ll worry about the bill later let’s go cuddle.” You reply back, pulling him by his shirt to the couch to cuddle.

Cutie: Um Boris? What’s that you got in your pocket?
Boris: Oh this well it’s just something I’ve always wanted to do for years now.
Cutie: And what would that be?
Cutie: *Clears Throat* Cutie... You have always been there for me when I need you.. when you first came to “Joey Drew Studios” I always knew you were the one for me, you were the kind of girl I would wanna be with, you are the love of my life I would travel all over the world just to search for you.
Boris: Now I want to spend the rest of my life..
Boris: With you
*Opens the Tiny box*
Boris: Cutie the Kitten will you marry me?
Cutie: *Crying tears of Joy*
(Ahhh it’s torturing my soul in a good way I love this so much)
The male smirked, nodding his head as he slowly sank to one knee. He fiddled with something in his coat pocket, eventually procuring a silver ring. Sure-- he’d wanted to wait a bit longer to pop this question, but he knew true love when he saw it. It was rampant in Storybrooke and he’d finally found the one whom he held most dear.
