I take a breath, cross my arms over my chest, then sit up again. Skylar is using his weight to keep my feet on the ground. His hand is hovering just over my knees, holding a small object. Inside the black square, my eyes focus on a ring. Set upon the top rests a large, dark diamond, and the white diamonds around it grab my attention. I place my hands on the floor and sit myself up properly, my heart ready to burst through my rib cage as I realize what's happening.
It feels like there are spotlights on me, and everyone in the gym is watching. I quickly look to the side, but everyone seems to still be going about their business. Excitement and worry overwhelmingly run through me. There's no way for me to contain the emotions, so they convert into tears, which start to spill from my eyes. My brain is spinning like tires on ice, trying to gain traction to formulate a thought. I picture us together, having a wedding, being his wife, and him being my husband. His scent enters my nose as I breathe in, reminding me of the comfort his presence gives me. I breathe out, then answer.
"Yes," I say softly.
Skylar takes the ring with one hand, then carefully holds my finger as he slides it on. The black band glides down my finger, over my knuckle, and settles firmly at the base. A few people around us give their congratulations, but I'm only interested in kissing him. I put my arm around his neck and pull myself forward until our lips meet. This memory etches itself into my brain like writing on stone, our first kiss as being engaged.
"Do you want to finish?" He asks.
I shake my head, then wipe my eyes on his shoulder. The only thing I want to do is go home with him. My legs are weak, so I take his hand and have him pull me to my feet. Even having to leave his side to get my belongings from the locker room hurts. I grab my stuff quickly, then rush back to him. In the car, I hold my hand out and look at the ring adorned on my finger. I have no idea why he wants to marry me, but I don't doubt his love for me either.
Leslie is waiting in the living room when we get home. She looks at us as we come in but doesn't say anything. Then, when she notices the ring on my finger, she jumps up excitedly.
"You said yes!" She blurts out.
"You told her?" I ask Skylar, and he smiles. "I did," I answer, my mouth almost stretching ear to ear.
Leslie hurries toward me, wanting to see the ring. I hold my hand up so she can look. Her eyes lock on the diamond, and she dances in place. Her hand holds my wrist, pulling it closer, and I take the time to examine it again as well. It makes me think about my entire life. I had thought about being married to a girl and ways that I might propose one day. After the change, it never crossed my mind that a guy would propose to me.
"We'll have to talk more about it later," I say as I take Skylar's hand and walk.
I lead him to our room, then strip down from my gym clothes. I'm not exactly horny, but I have the urge to have sex with him. My emotions are boiling, needing a release, and making love is the best way I know how. He's usually the dominant one, and me, submissive. Our roles switch for now as he follows my lead. I push him to sit on the bed, then I straddle his lap and ride him. My hands hook his shoulder and neck, giving me leverage to drive my body against his. I don't slow or stop until I make him cum. He shudders beneath me, blasting his load into my body.
We hold each other in that position long enough for him to go soft. His cum messily leaks from me, but we love making a mess with each other. He lies back, pulling me down to rest on top of him. As I listen to his heartbeat, I think about our future. We'll have to plan a wedding, then I'll be his wife, and he'll be my husband. Until then, I will be his fiancΓ©. Be his, I think about that more. The thought of him possessing me like a prize always stirs a warmth in me. It's like arousal, but much deeper, so strong that it scares me, so I never act on it. It's crept into my dreams before, being his, his good girl, or bad girl, his submissive little slut. I'm already submissive to him, but I don't think he's caught on to how much I'm willing to be.
We eventually get up to clean and shower. We shower together, something we love to do, though we don't often do it. I then go and tell Leslie about the proposal. She asks for every detail. After going over the entire story three times, she's satisfied enough for now. For the next several days, she asks me to tell it at least once. On my day off, I finally call my parents and give them the news. Thankfully, both of them are supportive. They press me to make sure I keep them up to date about our wedding plans.

I'm just finishing up at work when Jen calls me. We don't get together as often as we used to, but I still consider her my best friend. I'm usually busy with work or planning the wedding with Alice. And, with Jen and Skylar living together, I know she's busy too. Jen asks to meet up, which is good because I need to ask her about being my best man, or in this case, my best gal. My wedding is only three months away now, so I need to make sure everything is in place.
I meet Jen at a cafΓ© that we used to always hang out at. On one side, they serve mediocre food, but the reason we always went there was for the arcade. Before we each share our news, I convince her to play a few games with me. Our short gaming session brings smiles and frustration, and most importantly, reminds me of our long friendship.
"You won, so why don't you share first," I say as we sit down.
"I did win, so I should choose who goes first," she says, smiling. "I'll go, though. Skylar asked me to marry him," she continues, then lifts her hand to show me the ring. I can't believe I didn't notice it earlier.
"Congratulations!" I say, smiling. I'm delighted to see her in such a good mood.
She goes on to tell me about the gym, how Skylar proposed, her feelings, Leslie's reaction, and her parent's reaction. The expression on her face, her smile, the tone of her voice, they all burst with happiness and excitement, something that I was afraid she had lost. It's been a long time since I've seen her like this, and I love it.
"So, your turn now!" She says.
"Actually, I want to talk about marriage too. My wedding with Alice is in three months, so I wanted to ask you to officially be my best gal," I say.
"It would be my honor," she says, bobbing her head in a playfully dramatic manner.
