jogging

So after a long weekend at the beach with the bf, I got home from work and immediately started to do the million of things one has to do after a long weekend involving sand and gluttony (laundry and jogging).

In between getting dressed for jogging and putting clothes in the wash I was also straightening up the apartment and taking things out of the fridge in preparation for dinner when the doorbell rings. Knowing it's the bf (we're both too lazy to fish out our keys) I grab a pair of his pants to ask him if he wants to wash it. As I open the door I have a pair of maybe dirty pants in my hand.

In his hands are roses, red.

"Why do you have that?" I said, pantless.

He pulls out a little box, wrapped.

The rest is blurry except for 3 things:

1. The thought "Am I really getting proposed to in my underwear? (in a non-sexy way)"
2. The 5 minutes it took to unwrap the box to see if it was in fact a proposal (in a "am I getting proposed to" scenario this feels a lot longer)
3. A proposal, in French

Along with 3 realizations:

1. Yes, you are getting proposed to your underwear!
2. Despite this when someone proposes to you, it's an actual question and you should answer it, outloud.
3. However saying "I have to think about it" in order to be funny or lighten the mood isn't and doesn't.

Afterwards the bf, now fiancé, puts his arms around a very shocked me and begins our first conversation as an engaged couple:

Him: So... do you want to go jogging?
Me: Um... maybe we should go celebrate? I'll go put on some pants.
