An Extra Special FHE

The YSA here has their FHE on Tuesday nights. Last night the lesson was given by a recently returned missionary who served in Taiwan. He told us about their culture and about buddhism. Then he related it all to finding happiness, and how the whole world's quest is to find happiness. But they can't do it on their own. They're failing. We are so lucky to have this happiness and knowledge. We need to spread it. I had an investigator friend with me last night. She also brought her boyfriend. Everything that was said in the lesson last night was pretty much exactly what I wanted her to know. I was really happy and grateful that we could have that lesson. Trevor disappeared just before the lesson got started. Perhaps to call his roomate and chastise him for not being there? I dunno. He came back about 45 minutes later, right at the end. I was kind of sad he didn't get to hear it so we could discuss it later on. But oh well. He came and sat on my lap (because all the seats were full). He grabbed my hand and started playing with my CTR ring. He took it off the middle finger and slipped it onto my ring finger. He's done this before and he always gives me that "someday" look. I whispered to him to cut it out and quit playin' with me. "Fine," Said he. Then I noticed he put it in his pocket. "Hey!" I whispered. "Give me my ring back! What are you doing?" He whispered "Fine. " And slipped it on my ring finger again. I went to go put it on it's rightful finger, but it wasn't my CTR ring. This one had diamonds. And it was really, really pretty. "What is that?" I whispered. He was grinning ear to ear. "Are you joking? This is a joke. You're kidding. What is that?" All he whispered was "Will you marry me?" I started crying and kissing him and kissing him and crying and kissing him. Somewhere in there I'm sure I said yes. Still, everyone around us is oblivious to what's going on as they make this weeks announcements. Then they realized we were kissing a lot. I started hearing "Hey, you two!" or "Hey! That's innappropriate!" or "Get a room!" I finally found my breath to say "He just proposed to me!" between sobs. Everyone just stared. I don't think they understood. Maybe I didn't speak as clearly as I thought I had. After a few minutes of them just staring, I said "We have an announcement! We're engaged!" Everybody still just stared. I think I heard crickets. Finally it soaked in, and rounds of congratulations were heard all around. Yeah, it was a pretty special FHE.
