[Post-Graduation]Engagement
|| It had been several years since he'd been broken out of the crummy shop in an alley off of Knockturn. Damien sat in a booth far away from most people, a hand sitting in his pocket thumbing a case. He wore a hood that shrouded his face, one that he'd worn a lot recently since those painful weeks. He hated the long gash that ran from his cheekbone to above his right eye and hated that it was going to become a scar. He'd have healed it, but his magic had been weaker than usual lately, and he didn't want anyone to heal him. Now, after all, was said and done, today could have been the most important to him. After a time of being with Pixie, her being the most important person to him, he felt more captivated by her. He loved her more than anyone else he'd ever been with. And, now, he waited, hoping that she got his owl.
Pixie walks in swiftly, her eye's search around for a man, always the same she felt lost without him and she thinks back on all the things that had happened in the past few days, most of those days filled with his absence, her eyes well up with tears and she closes them for a moment, this was not the time to cry, she shakes her head and opens her eyes to look at Damien sitting at a table placed at a far corner, if it was someone else, she wouldn't have recognized them as Damien had worn a hood, but as her heart starts to beat faster she smiles automatically her eyes glow with joy and curiosity as she had received an owl from him to meet her here, she walks up to him and puts a hand on his shoulder, "Hello Damien" She then takes a seat at the table and looks into his eyes curiously
|| Damien pulled down his hood smiling slightly, a change in pace as of late, after a long time of healing from the damage, physically and mentally. He sighed and curled his fingers around the case in his pocket "Once, before my ... time away" he spoke unable to bring himself to say torture "I had thought of ways to do this. Beat around the bush, be cheesy." he laughs and lets that sink in for suspense before continuing "But after everything that has happened, everything that can happen, or go wrong. I feel it's best not to waste time and later wonder what if" he pulls out his hand and the case with it. He opened the case, keeping the contents hidden for suspense, admiring the choice he made, before turning it around, showing the ring. The ring was standard, to say the least. The usual diamond and gold. But what he liked about this, in particular, was that there was a bit of gray painted into the gold. He decides to offset the surprise with a joke "I'd get on my knee, but we're in a tight space" he gives a slightly nervous laugh but says anyway "Will you marry me?"
Pixie focuses on his warm grey eyes as she didn't want to look at all the wounds, how broken he had been when she and Fire had finally managed to save him it hurt her so much that she felt even being under the cruciatius curse could not compare to the pain she felt in her heart, she now shifts her focus to what he is saying and raises a brow at the word cheesy and thinks, What is he up to now? as he laughs at some sort of private joke that she had no idea about but she widens her eyes now in surprise as he takes out a case it's contents hidden to her as he looked at it once but as he turns the open case towards her, she realizes was he meant by the what if, he was proposing to her! She laughs as he jokes and starts to cry as he asks her to marry, She looks at the ring, simple but it held so much meaning and she notices the slight grey painted into the gold and she thinks and says "This is perfect" She then thinks, just for a second life without him and closes her eyes as she is hit by a wave of sudden pain and hurt, she opens her eyes and says "Of course I will! I can't even imagine being without you, ever" then she whispers, "I love you"
|| A laugh escapes his lips in relief. Not just a laugh of relief, or from his small joke, but a laugh of happiness. He didn't know what he was expecting, but after everything that had happened, after how distant he was, he wouldn't have been surprised if she had said no. He had tensed up as he continued on, but thinking of a life with her helped him continue speaking, though he was still slightly tense before her answer. He'd always been one for suspense, and now he was a victim of his own tool. But he smiled as she replied to the ring. He took the ring from its case and stood up from his chair, before walking over to her. He took her hand in his own and slid the ring on her finger "I love you too" he says after his ears catch the whispered phrase. He gives a slight smile before kissing her
Pixie smiles hugely as she admires the ring and kisses him back shyly
Fire who was leaned back against a wall hidden in the shadows so they would not see him, smiled as his bestie said yes. As if she wouldn't. They deserved this after everything they been through. Satisfied he slinked out to leave them be.
