one; proposal
1. park - you've been planning this proposal for awhile and have taken your sweetheart to a nice secluded area in the park. are they going to say yes or leave you in the dust?
2. house - dimmed lights, candles, home made dinner. it's obvious you've fixed yourself up for something tonight. let's see if your lover catches on before the question is popped.
3. public event - perhaps you're one who wants to gain a lot of attention; maybe your significant other doesn't as much. either way, this goes from writing their message in the sky with an airplane to something like a flash mob ensemble with others involved.
4. restaurant - nothing romantic like taking them out somewhere ritzy and hiding the rings in that glass of expensive wine.
5. car - you've driven them somewhere nostalgic or meaningful either to you or each other, or perhaps just a good view overlooking the city cause maybe you had no other idea how to do it or couldn't afford anything else.

two; marriage
1. traditional - both parties have agreed and said yes, and everything goes well just like in the fairy tales you've always dreamed of.
2. arranged - you had no say so in this but somebody else like your parents did. you've never seen this person before until you walk down the aisle. what are your thoughts? are you nervous? what if you two don't get along? looks like you have to deal with it either way. enjoy?
3. elope - nothing fancy. you know, they do make drive thru chapels or perhaps you're just going to experience the excitement of meeting up at the court. all and all, it doesn't matter, just so you have your sweetheart to yourself.
4. shotgun - congrats, somebody is pregnant. there's only one more thing left to do now..
5. disaster - looks like somebody forgot the rings! never mind the fact the maid of honor is having a wardrobe malfunction or that soon to be father in law is causing a scene of some sort.

three; after marriage
1. honeymoon night - self explanatory! come on, you know what this means. it just wouldn't be the same without this option.
2. new addition - it could be a pregnancy or bringing home a new child, or something as simple as a new pet goldfish.
3. house purchase - after months of living in a trashy apartment, you're both about to sign the dotted line and move into your new place.
4. argument - deep, relationship sort of arguments or something petty like who drank all the milk; it's up to you!
5. divorce - somebody has had enough of this and is ready to move on. how will it all go down?

i can't even breathe
but this house went the extra mile. if allison closed her eyes, she could see them growing up together, starting a family, being happy, making something beautiful. pretending to be normal, or something, even if the word 'normal' has lost all merit in her dictionary. he'd still be a werewolf, and she'd still be an ex-hunter but - you know what? that's all right by her.
fingers dart out to brush along the wallpaper - which could leave, they could change it. they could make this house their own, and build their own family on top of the memories of others. she likes it - the past and the now mixing in this one house. then again, maybe she's thinking about it too much. ]
Yeah. Yeah, I think I like this one. [ she offers a bright smile, moving to hold him at the waist, squeezing him lightly. ]
What do you think?
i think i need to lie down
he's confident in allison's decision, though; and that this is the right choice, that they are the right choice.
he brings his arm around her shoulders and offers a small squeeze in return, nodding his head.]
Yeah.
[then he realizes that she probably needs a little more than just that,]
It's nice here. Let's do it. Let's get the house.
seriously i might faint they're cuties....
[ she grins, fluttering a laugh against his neck when they hug. buying a house with isaac. buying a house with isaac. it's like a dream come true - something she'd never thought would happen, but it has, and allison couldn't fathom being any happier than she is right now.
well, maybe on the wedding day she was a touch happier. but just the faintest bit. ]
You don't just have to do this for me, you know. I can wait. [ she wants the reassurance to be there - that if it was moving too fast, she could slow down. even if this could be her dream house, isaac was her dream guy. there's a lot of houses out there, but there's only one isaac - who she doesn't plan on losing anytime soon. she pulls back a bit, hands still lingering on his sides, so he can see her 'let's get real' face.
it's all about his comfort, after all! allison could move on if he didn't like it. ]
they really are omfg
No, this is it.
[he's looking straight into her eyes, making sure that she knows that this is the decision that he's sure about, the one that he's trusting her with. they may have had their differences in the past, and they still will -- werewolf, hello -- but isaac knows that allison has always made (most) of her decisions based on judgement, and he's aware that this was one of those times where he could absolutely trust her.]
C'mon, let's sign the papers.
cries loudly this is the ship that will never sail
All right!
[ it's a little bit like she's rushing before he can change his mind - or she's too excited to contain herself. either way, she grabs a firm hold on isaac's hand, leading them both towards the living room where the landlord is. once there, she takes a seat next to him on the couch ( hey, house comes with some furniture! ) and they start talking business.
quickly enough, there's a pen in allison's hand, and she's signing off on the lease. obviously, they want both their names on it, so once she's done, she moves the papers closer to isaac, pen offered to him. ]
Here it is.
i know right omfg we will never have this ;o;
he looks down at the papers, staring at them incredulously because it basically holds the key to their future. this is it, this is it, this is it, the line repeats in his head over and over until he finally shoves it away because even though he is slightly nervous and he is a little unsure about testing the water, he knows that it won't be cold.]
Here it is.
[he takes the pen, giving one last look over the papers (he had been looking over allison's shoulder as she read it) before signing his name. once he does, and once he hands the papers to the landlord, it feels like a weight has lifted from his shoulders. he had been stressing himself out, and once the papers were out of his hands, the stress dissipated.]
We did it.
[he sounds surprised, moreso at himself, and he leans in to give allison a slow, soft kiss on the lips.
and no, he doesn't care that the landlord is still there.]
i am very upset over this!!! ;w;
when she pulls back, she just smiles, eyes flickering back and forth between either of his. her thumb brushes along his cheek and, for a moment, she might look like she's about to cry because this is actually real, this is actually her life. They are actually married, actually buying a house, and one day they're going to have actual little puppies running all around. they're happy - and, it feels like it's only uphill from here. though, she can't really imagine a happier moment that this, right now, being with isaac, in his arms, like they're the only people in the world.
... but then she remembers they're not alone, jumping back from him the slightest bit. not that she wants to, she'll just put it off for a bit. ]
I love you. [ it's muttered quietly enough - just for him to hear. ] So much.
[ her thumbs rubs against his cheek again... she really doesn't want to pull away, sigh, she's still so much a hopeless teenager in love, it hurts. she does eventually find it in her to break away, hand falling to the top of his thigh, while she offers to see the landlord to the door.
he agrees, and after collecting all the paperwork, and shaking hands, they say their goodbyes. ]
me too!!
when she jumps, he grins, head tilting towards the landlord, a brow up and his grin turning into a smirk. he's showing off and he's not regretting a thing, until allison pulls him back to her with those three words, and his eyes soften and the mischief in his eyes disappear. he leans in and murmurs into her ear,]
I love you, too.
[and just like that, his expression changes as he settles back into being professional about things. isaac waves the landlord goodbye and looks down at allison, head tilting in question,]
What now?
this thread is literally the death of me
Mm. We can... [ her words are slightly muffled because her lips are pressed to his neck, tickling him with her breath.
in hindsight, they have a lot to do. they have to redecorate the house, go buy some new things for it, go bring all their old stuff to this house. but allison is maybe in a bit of a lazy mood, and not especially interested in all that. she'd rather just stick around and cuddle isaac in their empty little house, kiss him and hug him, tell him she loves him because she does, unbearably so.
she holds him a moment longer, pressing a final kiss on his neck, before pulling away so her hands rest on his shoulders. ]
I don't know. There was that TV in the master bedroom? [ she pretty much thinks out loud, idly rubbing his shoulders. ] If you're hungry we'll have to go out - there's no food in the fridge.
i dont know if i can handle this cute anymore
What if,
[he reaches up to take her hand in his and pulls it forward just enough so he can kiss the back of her hand.]
we call for delivery, go upstairs and find a movie?
[he doesn't want to get up, he likes the feeling of her standing over him, letting him know that she's there. allison is such a sweet person, he kind of wonders sometimes how he managed to capture her attention. he finally stands up, walking around the couch and nods towards the stairs.]
That sound good?
ajhsdkj assumes isaac's favorite pizza oop
[ even as she's talking and walking towards the staircase, she's pulling out her phone, ready to dial a nearby pizza place's number. that she has saved in her contacts. they eat pizza a lot - and, so, by now they have a usual order.
allison takes the lead in front of isaac, and he'll hear her say "medium cheese pizza, extra cheese, and a liter of coke for delivery", and a few other conversation quirks, before they're all done. by the time allison hangs up, she's made it into the bedroom - which is huge, with a bed matching in size - and quickly crosses over to sit on their bed.
their bed. ]
They say twenty minutes.
