Mayhaps marry me oak? 💍
You've known Oak for a long time. You met him a little while after he got above ground, you were the one to sorta help them get onto the farm, funnily enough! You told them about this old farm that was falling down, and they could fix it up and start to grow their own food. You even helped them get the seeds and such.
Oak and Sunflower, their names after their changed them from their old names, didn't trust you at first but they quickly warmed up to you once they were sure that you were trying to help them.
You and Oak were closer than you and Sunflower, and it wasn't because Sunflower didn't like you, just you and Oak were close. Sunflower seemed to enjoy teasing their brother about it, while Oak growled at them to shut up.
You could see them getting better with their bodies and such, mostly after they were able to start to eat. They grew so many different types of veggies and fruits, stuff that would be easy at first but then they started to grow harder things, and you were so proud of them!
Today you came over to their farm, reaching up and knocking on the door. It might shock other people but a few years after they got above ground, Oak told you that he had a crush on you and you two started to date. That was about... four? Five? Years ago. You were very happy with the relationship, he was a real sweetie!
He always tried to make you feel safe and happy, and if you ever seemed to not be feeling good, he would do anything to help you feel better. It was really cute.
The only thing that really bothered you was that he sometimes didn’t let you help out on the farm but that was just because he was worried about you. He didn’t want you to overwork yourself, even though he did it to himself pretty damn often.
When the door opened you saw that it was Sunflower on the otherside, who seemed to smile wider, “Ah Y/n, hello!” They say, “I’m glad to see you. I was starting to worry you wouldn’t be coming over today, bless my soul Oak’s been rambling about it” they giggle, putting their hand to their chest.
You could hear slight sounds from inside the house, Oak peeking around from the kitchen then pulls back, as if you couldn’t see them. What the heck Oak?
You hum and shake your head, looking up at Sunflower, “Thank you for the warm welcome Sunflower, sorry if I’m late. I needed to pick up a few things” you hold up your bag.
“Yes yes, come in, Oak’s in the kitchen” they pull you into the house, and shut the door behind you. You almost stumbled but you laughed, thanking them again, and walk over to the kitchen.
“You know that I could see you from the entrance, right?”
Oak jolts and looks over at you, getting a weak little smile on his face. He was wearing his normal flannel shirt, it had to be custom made because of his size but you knew that he couldn’t just stay in that outfit that he was in before...
Sunflower too.
“Ra...Really now?” he clears his throat, “Didn’t know that” he scratches at his skull with his fingertips. His fingers were so sharp, you’ve seen him use them as knives instead of trying to find a real knife.
"Are you okay?" you decided to ask, tilting your head to the side. You didn't like how nervous he looked.
Oak doesn't answer for a few seconds, his eyeshine looking anywhere but you until he sighs out slowly and he reaches into his pocket, "I..." he stops, letting out a soft mrrr sound. He seemed annoyed by something.
Before you could ask again if he was okay, he pulls out a box from his pocket and he holds it out to you, opening it, "M-Ma...Marry me?" he looked so nervous, now finally looking at you. Your giant datemate had never looked so small before.
You stare at the ring, it was mostly silver and simple looking but shaped sort of like flowers. Then you looked at your datemate again.
Oak looked like he was about to faint with how nervous he looked. Finally, you broke out of your silence and you grin, jumping up and putting your arms around his neck, "Yes!" You start to pepper kisses against his face. He jumps, then laughs, putting one of his arms around your waist and holding you up, nuzzling his skull against your head, purring loudly.
You couldn't believe that he was asking you to marry him!
