If it wasn't bad enough that Aaron brought up getting married as if it was the obvious thing to do, he never even properly proposed. During the last semester of their senior year, he simply handed Keeley a box one day.
"Here. It's about time you had this."
She opened the lid and saw a whopping six carat solitaire diamond ring with a platinum band covered in little diamonds all the way around. How was she supposed to use her left hand when it was weighed down with something that big?
She sighed. So much for dreams of a romantic proposal.
"You know, traditionally the guy is supposed to get down on one knee and specifically ask the girl to marry him."
He looked like it didn't even occur to him. "…should I do that now?"
Was she in love with an idiot? "Yes, Aaron."
