The Proposal

Misaki stood outside the prestige restaurant awkwardly. She felt out of place in such a high end restaurant and she didn't know what to do.

"May I help you miss?" one of the waiters from inside asked politely, intrigued by the raven haired girls beauty.

"Um, I have a reservation for two under Usui Takumi?" she said uncertainly as she fidgeted with her the hem of her skirt uncertainly.

"Of course, right this way," the waiter smiled and brought the fair maiden to the table.

Although Misaki felt awkward in such a place, everyone else did not think the same. In fact, most of the male population had their eyes glued on the beauty in front of them, much to the annoyance of their dates.

She wore a simple navy blue cocktail dress that had a sweetheart neckline. It was sleeveless and stopped one or two inches above her knees, showing off her creamy skin and long legs. Eyeliner and mascara was applied, but not to the point where it would look overly excessive and her hair was tied to the side; curled slightly at the ends.

When she reached the table she sat down gracefully and waited patiently for her date to arrive and she was rewarded when less than a minute later Usui walked in. He was dressed simply with a black tux and dress pants, but yet he had the undivided attention of the ladies.

He couldn't care less about the stares but found himself rather angry when he saw all the men looking at his date. A protective growl escaped his throat as he wrapped his arm around her waist and kissed her on the lips in front of everyone to see.

She blushed as they sat down again.

"What was that for?" she hissed.

"Can't I even kiss my own girlfriend in public?" he whined.

"Forget it," she sighed, "happy anniversary Usui," she smiled and handed him her present.

He gently unwrapped the present and a look of surprise etched upped his handsome features.

"Bu-how?" he stuttered out as he held up the file.

It was an information file all about his mother and father, something he has been searching for for years.

"I asked Kanou to help me out, he hypnotized the person into giving me the file," Misaki said and shifted nervously in her seat.

"I love it Misa. Thank you, I've been trying to get hold of these files but the Walker family made sure I couldn't," he smiled as he hugged her tight.

"You're welcome," she whispered and hugged him back.

The waiter arrived just then and they broke apart. Usui glared at the waiter who seemed to be more than just friendly with his Misa. He placed his arm around her petite waist protectively as he continued to glare at the waiter.

After their order was complete Usui visibly relaxed but still kept a firm hold on Misaki's waist.

The dinner passed pleasantly with laughter and small fill-ins on how their work life has been with her blushing ever so often and his laughter.

When it was finished Misaki smiled up at Usui, "Thank you for today, it was truly wonderful."

His cheeks redden at the sight of her cute smile but his bangs hid it will as he replied, "Your welcome, but the day is not over, I still have one last thing for you."

Her face showed puzzlement before the blonde haired man kneeled in front of her, a small black box in his hand.

She gasped; her hand instinctively flew to her move to cover it.

"Ayuzawa Misaki, I have loved you for more than three years now. You are the first girl to turn me down so many times I lost count," he chuckled lightly at this before continuing, "you are so strong willed, caring and definitely the most stubborn and independent girl I have ever met, and I love that about you. I love everything about you, from the way you are scared of ghost to the way that although you hate men you would still save them if they were in trouble. So, will you do me the honour of becoming my wife?" he asked hopefully.

Both parties felt nervous in the silence as a million thoughts flew through Misaki's head.

Finally giving up on waiting for an answer he kissed her. Her brain seemed to shut down and only when she felt that his kisses were getting more desperate that she realised she wasn't kissing him back.

She pulled away, "Of course I'll marry you, baka," she whispered and pulled him towards her and once again their lips met.
