Sam groaned and rolled over. He didn’t find Holly. Sam slowly sat up, looking around for his girlfriend. This was strange, Holly never got up before him. Sam rolled out of bed and tried to flatten his hair before pulling on a robe and walking into the living room. He was about to start worrying when he heard something in the kitchen.
Holly looked up from her coffee as Sam entered the room. She smiled and nodded before turning back to the television. The two were still extremely sore from the fight last night, but they had managed to suffer through.
“How’s my beautiful lady doing this morning?” Sam asked, pouring himself a cup of the bitter drink.
Holly blushed and smiled. “Fine,”
Sam sat down and reached for his newspaper, but Holly’s hand caught his. “Sam, there’s something I want to talk to you about.”
“Me too.” Sam said, placing his hand over Holly’s. “I’ll be right back.”
Holly sighed as Sam walked (or ran) out of the room. He came back a moment later in a T-shirt and some loose pajama pants.
“I could probably do this better, but—“
Sam removed his hands from behind his back. Holly saw a small, decorated box and her brain turned to mush. Was he--?
“Holly?” he asked, getting on one knee and opening the box. “Will you marry me?”
