You know, the last time I went to a wedding... [He bit his lip, trying to control the grin.]

Okay. You know you would have my help through this, anyway, but I'm really honored that you want me a part of the wedding. So, I guess the answer is yes. Definitely yes.

[mediumdrip]

[Blaine makes a relieved noise, though he didn't really think that Tim would turn him down.]

Great! Thanks.

We can start by going to pick up some stones. Kurt and I already have the promise rings. [A simple white gold band is on Blaine's finger and has been for a while, just on the wrong hand for a wedding band.] I was thinking instead of getting a new ring I could get some diamonds or gem stones and Kurt could customize the way they were set into the ring.

[theshortestbird]

That's a really good idea, probably better then buying a big diamond ring. [And possibly a little cheaper, depending on the stones.]

I think he'll like that. The being able to customize it, probably the most. [He laughs.] Probably second to the actual proposal, though. Do you have an idea of what kind of stones you want? Like, color ones or just normal diamonds, or even special diamonds? Like yellow, or black, or...

[mediumdrip]

I have no idea! [Blaine admitted finally] I'm leaning towards diamonds though. He'll like that classic look, I think.

[theshortestbird]

I think he'll like the classic look, more. He's kind of a classic, romantic kind of guy, so that... should work. [He laughs.]

You're getting married!

[mediumdrip]

If he says yes, anyway. [Blaine says with a grin. He doesn't think that Kurt will turn him down, but it's still a possibility.]

[theshortestbird]

He's going to say yes. [He reaches over and knocks his shoulder.] That's not even a question.

[mediumdrip]

Considering he's been waiting for me to ask him for a while now?

I'm just worried, because of what happened back home... What if he changed his mind?

[theshortestbird]

When you guys showed up here, again, didn't you tell me that you'd both decided to put it all behind you? That you weren't going to think about it?

[He shrugs.] He could, but I don't think he will.

[mediumdrip]

He said he wanted to, but that doesn't mean it's all forgotten...

[theshortestbird]

If you don't think this is a good idea, then you shouldn't do it. It's a really big step, Blaine. I mean... if he said that he wants to forget about it, all you can do is take it at face value.

[mediumdrip]

I think this is the best idea I've had in a long time.

I'm just worried because I haven't been that great at decision making lately.

[theshortestbird]

I think you've gotten better. When you're here, you've gotten better. Just... personally, and this really isn't a jab at your relationship or anything, but being young and in love... marriage is a really big step. You need to be sure it's right, and it's one thing to be a nervous, but if you don't know for certain that this is the right thing to do? Then maybe it's not the time.

It's a big decision. You just have to be sure, Blaine. You don't want to get into it, and find that it's not what you thought it would be.

[mediumdrip]

[Blaine does pause, to give the matter some consideration. He searches his own heart for a moment, tracking down doubts to their source.]

I am. I am 100% certain that I want to be Kurt's husband and I want him to be mine.

[theshortestbird]

Then let's do whatever we have to, to get you married. [He grins.] Starting with the engagement, and the ring.

[mediumdrip]

Yes. As soon as we're done, I'm dragging you to help me shop for diamonds.

[theshortestbird]

Lucky for you, I'm actually good at diamonds. Or at least telling the difference between a good one and a bad one. [Now just give him a moment to pretty much stuff the rest of his food into his mouth.]

Mmph. [That's ready.]

[mediumdrip]

[Blaine finishes off his drink and then leaves some money on the table for a tip.]

Oh good. I only know that they're shiny.

[theshortestbird]

[He grins, swallowing.] Yeah, we'll work on that. At least show you that there is a difference in shine.

[mediumdrip]

That'd be great. I could use a better eye.

[theshortestbird]

Good thing you came to me then. [He laughs.] Let's go. This'll be fun.

[mediumdrip]

[Blaine gets up to go with him, pleased to have Tim in his life for more reasons than just diamonds.]
