Chapter Text
It's thanksgiving, everyone has just finished desert and are about to start to clean the table. Yang begins to feel nervous and trembles a lot. She has one shot to get this right. She wants to do it now so everyone can see, everyone is here. It's the big night, the big question.
"Oh god," Yang whispered to herself as she stood up "Oh lord help me," she wipes her hands on her pants, "uh...may I have your attention. Please?"
Everyone at the table stops what they are doing and sit back down looking at Yang. Only grandma Belladonna has a different expression. And she's the only one with her video camera out ready to capture every moment.
"Okay so," She smiles wiping a tear away from her eye "Oh wow, I'm a hot," she chuckles nervously and so does everyone but Blake.
Blake is sitting nervously. She has a clue about what's going to happen next. She has been expecting this for a year now. She thought she knew what she was going to say but all of that confidence about knowing what to do has left her mind and she begins to tremble.
Yang takes Blake by the hand and leads her to the front of the table where everyone is able to see them. They both shake nervously and smile uncontrollably.
"So uh, Blake?" Yang breathed.
"Yes Yang?"
"Oh jeez..." Yang wiped her forehead, then hands, then eyes, "This is way harder than it looked."
"It's okay," Blake smiled and rested a hand on Yang's shoulder.
They stare at each other for a moment just smiling with tears in their eyes before Yang pulls a small box out of her pocket.
A week before this day, Yang called Blake's parents for their blessing. They were waiting for the day Yang would ask. Her parents actually seemed very happy about it, they're very thankful for Yang being in their daughters life. She has helped so much. They ant believe it.
"Blake... I really really really like you," Yang laughed cracking the ice "I love you sooooo much. We've been together for the longest time."
Blake nodded and wiped tears from her eyes.
"And I uh," Yang was starting to get red in the face "I know you're the one for me. If we made it this far...then why can't we make it to the end?"
"Yang," Blake lunged forward and hugged her rubbing her face into her neck leaving a wet spot from her tears if joy.
"Okay, okay," Yang broke away from Blake's grip opening up the small box "oh wow. There's a bunch of butterflies floating around in my tummy." Blake smiled and all the family members laughed.
Yang finally got down on one knee. She took Blake's hand. "Oh my god, I'm actually doing this."
"I can't believe this," Blake put a hand over her mouth and a muffled "oh my goodness" escaped her lips.
"Come on love birds!" Grandma Belladonna shouted.
"Give me a sec," Yang put her hands up.
Yang shifted around, fixed her shirt and hair. "Okay, Blake. Will you...uh...will you be my...oh jesus," she coughed then flat out blurted "Blake Belladonna will you marry me?"
Blake nods quickly with tears in her eyes and her hand over her mouth as Yang puts the ring on her finger. The ring has a small music note on it, it almost matches Blake's pendant she still has. Everyone begins to clap while Yang stands up to embrace Blake.
"I love you so much Yang," Blake mumbles
"I love you so much too," they both laugh at the sentence that didn't make sense.
