The real engagement

When Nick came to get me to talk I was so scared. I just knew that he was going to break up with me! We drove to the Manti Temple which was only seven miles away. When we got there it was 11:30pm and 13 degrees out side. It was COLD! Anyway, once we got there Nick gave me a little red plastic heart. He said that this heart was his and he wanted me to keep it. Then he took off the fake engagement ring. He asked how serious I was about serving a mission. I told him that I wanted to serve a mission, but I would not put off marriage for a mission, if it were the right choice. I thought that he did not like that answer because he just got out of the car and started to throw snow balls. I thought that he was crazy. He was in a t-shirt, pajama bottoms, and flip flops. It seemed like he was mad and I felt horrible about it. I saw Nick put the ring in a snow ball and I saw him throw it! I was so shocked! This ring was not ours, it was my roommates, Kia, who was so nice to let us use it! He called me outside, so I got out. I was in a winter coat and winter boots. I was still way cold! Nick put a snow ball in between our hands. He made us hold the snow ball for what seemed forever. I was kinda yelling at him to get in the car. I was afraid that both of us were going to get sick from being in this cold with a snow ball in our hands! Eventually, the snow ball started to melt. As soon as I felt the ring, Nick proposed! I was so shocked! I could not tell if this was a joke or for real, once he convinced me that it was real, I said yes in a heartbeat!
I went to my roommates and told them what had happened! We were all so excited!
