Emmet sat alone, his thoughts running wild.

He wanted to do this, and he was ready too, he wondered what had been holding him back for such a long while.

Emmet pulled a familiar velvet box out of his vest pocket.

This is it. He's going to propose to Lucy.

Luckily, in the meantime, she was out and about. Unikitty keeping her busy with girl things.

After that fact, he would meet them to take Lucy to dinner, then surprise her at home.

"It's our anniversary. Perfect time to do it." Emmet glanced at the clock, "...Where is he?"

"Lookin' for me, Kid?"

Emmet jumped, turning to Rex.

"Oh...Rex, you could have to know...knocked."

"Knocking? Pfft, that's for losers. Anyway, what you need me for?"

"I'm uh...I'm going to propose to Lucy." Emmet admitted, a blush forming on his cheeks.

Rex wasn't shocked, he remembered his short time as Emmet again, seeing the very ring Emmet would present to Lucy.

Rex smiled, "I knew this day was coming, I'm so proud of you, Kid."

"Thanks, Rex." Emmet sighed, "But...we need to set up this place to be more...romantic."

Emmet brought out a box hidden under the coach, "I bought of stuff. Including roses."

"Pink and blue roses?"

"Harder to find them you'd think. I also, have some red to mix in there."

Emmet turned to the door frame, examining it.

"Maybe a trail of petals to the backyard...where we can set up some nice lighting."

Rex looked at Emmet, thinking before speaking, "...Emmet, can I ask you a serious question?"

"Um, yeah. Sure."

"So, you're going to propose to Lucy...is your dream still the same?"

Emmet was silent for a moment, but nodded.

"You know my dream. Get married, be a good friend, and eventually...a good father. That's all I want. A peaceful, happy, normal life."

"...Ever since I became Rex, my dreams have changed completely. Emmet…maybe I can take inspiration from you once again." Rex smiled.

"From me? Really, Rex?"

"Well, your dream sounds a whole lot better than taking over galaxies with dinosaurs…" Rex nervously laughed.

Emmet chuckled, "But Rex that's so you...and I'm so me…"

"Still, Kid, it seems nice the way you're doing things. Reminds me of...what once was. You'll do great!"

Rex patted Emmet's back, "Now, let's get to work before the girls come back."

Emmet nodded, smiling down at the box in his hand, he held it close to his heart.

"Lucy...I love you."

A few minutes passed, Emmet searching through his closet while Rex worked downstairs.

Emmet grew frustrated as he looked through his countless vests and outfits in his closet.

"Aww! Where is it? I was planning to wear it...maybe I took it out."

Emmet looked at the clock, "Oh shoot! Ah, I'm gonna be late! Ah, this whole thing will be ruined! Emmet, you said you'd be better than managing time."

Emmet took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

"I wish I could be two places at once."

"That's why I'm here, Kid." Rex smiled.

"Ah, Rex! I ugh…" Emmet sighed in relief, grabbing his tuxedo, realizing it was on the back of the closet door.

"I need to get going, but you...you have to promise me you'll do something for me."

"Anything, Emmet."

Emmet nodded, "Okay, so when you finish decorating in here...I have stock of bricks hidden in the backyard. I know it's a lot to ask...but if you remember it like I do...I need to you to build a copy of that tunnel I found the piece of resistance in." Emmet spoke, "Then, make a fake piece of resistance using the red bricks...and…" he took out the box from his pocket, "Hide this inside."

Rex looked at Emmet, "Emmet, what gave you the idea?"

Emmet smiled, "The Piece of Resistance is the one thing that brought Lucy and I together. It should also bring us together in engagement. Please, Rex. I want it to be this way."

Rex hesitated, but chuckled, "You're full of surprises. Whatever you say kid."

"Thank you so much, Rex! You're seriously the best vest friend ever."

"No problem, Emmet. Now get dressed, and meet you future wife. Leave everything to me."

Emmet nodded.

On the other side of town, Lucy waited.

"Hmm...Emmet is running a little late, which I expected."

Unikitty smiled, "Emmet's like that, Lucy. That's why you like him, no?"

Lucy laughed, "Yeah, he's my goofball. Still, it's our anniversary and...5 years ago, I never expected to fall in love with him. Yet, I'm so glad I did."

"I'm glad you did too, you two are absolutely perfect together!" Unikitty smiled.

Soon footsteps were heard approaching, Emmet ran up, a bit short of breath.

"L-Lucy...Sorry...I'm late." Emmet gave a smile.

Unikitty winked, "Good luck on the romance you two." She hopped away to leave them be.

Lucy laughed, "It's okay, Ems. So, you ready?"

"As ready as I'll ever be." Emmet held Lucy's hand, kissing her cheek.

Lucy blushed, "Oh, Emmet."

After the dinner, which Emmet tried to drag on for a while, giving Rex more time.

The two headed to their home. The same home Emmet knew they would spend the rest of their wonderful life in.

Emmet blushed at the thought, he looked forward, hoping everything everything was ready.

As Lucy opened the door, a small stud fell on his head from the roof. He looked up, seeing Rex.

He nodded, "Good luck, Kid." He whispered.

Emmet smiled, entering the house after Lucy.

He looked at her as she appreciated the romantic scenery.

"Oh, Emmet. Did you plan all this?"

"W-well...kind of." Emmet chuckled, "I thought it would be nice."

He took Lucy's hand, "But...for our anniversary, There's something I want to show you."

He lead her to the backyard, and there in the center was a tunnel built.

Emmet smiled, leading Lucy into it.

"Emmet, was is this?" Lucy asked.

"It's um...something to remind us of how we met."

They came up to a piece of resistance copy, which was even glowing. Emmet wasn't sure how Rex managed such a thing, but he did.

"Wow...that's right. The Piece of Resistance brought us together. I remember it all like it was yesterday." Lucy smiled.

Emmet walked up to the piece, place a hand on it.

"Oops, touched it again."

Lucy laughed.

Emmet wa nervous at this point, but he took a deep breath, deciding it's now or never.

"Oh, wait a minute...something seems off about his piece."

Lucy looked in confusion, as Emmet opened it.

"...Lucy I uh...I love you more than anything." Emmet started, "Now 6 years together...that's something I never thought I would have, especially not with a girl as amazing and as beautiful as you. Lucy, I loved being your boyfriend and special best friend...but I don't want that anymore."

"...Emmet?"

Emmet took the box out of the piece of resistance, he bent down, showing Lucy the ring.

"Because I want to be your husband."

Lucy blushed, placing her hands over her mouth in shock.

"Lucy, will you marry this...plain, average, everyday...and clumsy guy?" Emmet smiled.

Lucy was silent, but then nodded.

"Yes. Emmet, yes! Yes!"

She hugged him tightly.

"Of course I'll marry you! I love you!" She spoke, as tears fell from her eyes.

Emmet held her close, "I love you too, Lucy. Thank you for everything."

The two kissed, holding each other close, and not wanting to let go.
