This is my first fic ever so bare with me and thanks to my girls for pushing me to finally doing. @astoldbyacertifiedunicorn @japril12 @averysanatomy and Maya. I appreciate y'all. This is set right after japril got married and Jackson gave her that massive ring which I found out was $50k. -_- It has been a week since me and and Jackson ran away to Lake Tahoe and got married. A week since I married my best friend, the love of my life, a week since the best day and the most important day of my life. As I'm sitting on the porch sipping on some red wine with Jackson looking at the stars, enjoying our last day before we have to go back to work tomorrow. Oh how I'm dreading going back to work. I know everyone is going to be looking at us asking and waiting for answers. Jackson and I have talked about how we are going to keep it a secret for now until we are both ready to tell all our friends. I know the residents will have their own theories on what happened between Jackson and I. I have told myself that I won't care what anyone says. We have also talked about how suspicious it looks for us to come in at work the same day. I'm dreading seeing Stephanie or Mathew. As much as I am happy to be finally back together with Jackson I really feel bad and regret hurting Mathew and Stephanie they didn't deserve the humiliation we subjected them to. "What are are you thinking about" Jackson jolts me out of my thoughts. I hadn't notice he was standing over me with his hand stroking my head. "just thinking about the week we've had in Lake Tahoe" I lie becuse I don't want to tell him about all my fears of going back to work. The thing about marrying your best friend is that he knows when you are lying. I can already tell by the look on his face that he knows I'm lying. "I don't know if I believe that" he says with half a smile on his face, "but I won't bug you if you don't want to talk about it". He grabs my hands and makes me get up from my chair so he can sit and I can sit on his lap. Moments like this make me forget about the past and what we have been through. I'm sitting on his lap with my back on his chest, I can hear him chuckle. "What" I ask him. "I have a surprise for you" "a surprise for me" I ask as I am shocked. I really shouldn't be surprised because Jackson has been surprising me all week we have been together. On the night of our wedding he had moved us from the motel to a 5 start hotel, into a suite with a king sized bed, a jacuzzi, a sitting area and it's own little kitchen. The room had two bathrooms, two freaking bathrooms......why does a hotel room have two bathrooms?? But Jackson is used to this kind of lifestyle and I will never get used to it but this is what it means to marry into the Avery family. "Yes the surprise is in our bedroom". I haven't walked into our room since we got back from dinner so I have no clue what it could be. He takes my hand and tells me to close my eyes and follow him. I have the biggest smile on my face and the anticipation is killing me. He walks me to our room and tells me to open my eyes and he is on one knee in front of me with the biggest and shiniest ring I have ever seen. I know this ring must have cost a fortune because Jackson loves to spoil me and money is not a problem to him. I almost want to ask him how much it was, so I can scold him if it was a ridiculous amount. Jackson is such a romantic at heart. The room is decorated with rose petals on the bed and on the floor with my favourite flowers almost filling the room. He must have gotten someone to decorate the room while we were gone. He was acting weird when we got back from dinner, asking me if I was going to our room and if I needed anything he would get it, now I know why. At this point my eyes are watering from happiness, me and Jackson have always done things backwards. I know we are already married but him getting down on one knee makes me so emotional because I know he feels bad that I never got the formal engagement and wedding I wanted. I can see in his face that he is so nervous. "April" he says my name in the sweetest way possible and I just melt "Out of all the places I've been, things I've seen, things I've done; you are easily my greatest inspiration" "I love you so much. I just want to be with you. We will laugh together, we will smile together, we will cry together, we will share our sadness and happiness, when you are with me, every place and everything looks beautiful. I just want to be with you always" he pauses for a second and breathes in "Will you marry me April Kepner" I am crying tears of joy and I can't even say yes fast enough "Yes" I exclaim He places the ring on my finger and picks me up and kisses me while spinning around. I hold on to him so tight wishing we could stay here forever. "I love you" he whispers "I love you too" I say it back to him
