We went out to eat at Red Robin but had to be done by 6:30 because we had to "be somewhere". In the car he hands me a slip of paper. We're going on a scavenger hunt.
The first slip said this:
"A beginning location we can't regret. Pjs, no makeup, where we first met."
Alisha's apartment is where we first met. I was wearing pjs, with no makeup.
We took and picture with Alisha and she handed me the next slip of paper:
"Our love has been true as Jack and Sally, but Christmas was not what was stolen that night, it was my heart, and went without a fight. Go to the place where we sat in a circle, laughing and singing with all around, that is where our true love was found."
I was SO confused by this one. I kept asking "who the heck is Jack and Sally?!" and they would say, "who steals Christmas?" and I said, "the Grinch steals Christmas! This doesn't make any sense!" Jack and Sally are in the movie The Nightmare Before Christmas, we watched that movie the first night we sort of hung out. But like I was actually paying attention to the movie...So next stop is Apartment 24
Spencer and Tyler had my next clue:
"Zig zam boom, on the ice skating rink I showed you my moves, until your heart did sink."
Ice skating rink.
Keri and Alex were waiting to give me my next clue:
"With a cultural night I could see you were classy. At the International Cinema the subtitles were nasty."
BYU campus where we found our friend Adam with my next clue:
"Shopping, shopping, and shop some more. You're at the mall to the Macys front door. Our next time together, at Macys shopping, our love grew and was not stopping."
MACY'S is where we found Keri and Alex again. Although they made it a little more difficult to get my next clue. They hid it:
"A nickel, a nickel, fun being laser tagged. A heart growing closer, with true love I was snagged."
The Nickel Cade
Tyler took like twenty million years to give me the next clue:
"With french crepes more good times in store. Falling in love with a Doty means more amour."
The Crepe place where we found Heather and Sadie
My next clue:
"So many Smiths in Utah, even stores too. Like Joseph and Emma our love is true."
Smiths grocery store. Here we found Jacob, but forgot to take a picture with him. He gave me the last clue:
"Back and forth we swayed waiting for your lips to meet mine. This was the place where we first had our kiss, from that moment on it has ever been bliss."
My apartment!
So he parked his car in his parking garage and we walked to my apartment.
Every time he walks me home he always asks me the same thing: "Hey Rach...in a hypothetical world, where we both lived in Provo, and we just happened to met and hypothetically we fell in love, would you, possibly, in this hypothetical world, would you maybe marry me?" To which I always responded: "In this hypothetical world, if I happened to fall in love with you, and you hypothetically asked me to marry you, I would, in this hypothetical world, say yes."
As we walked home he asked his question and I gave my answer as usual. But when we walked into my apartment I found this:
WHAT?! was my reaction. I turn around to find him down on one knee and he asked me to marry him for real :) :) :)
Why would I ever, hypothetically or in real life, say NO?!?!?
I SAID YES
