Jen decided that she would pop the question tonight. Jonah would be home on time for a changed and he had the entire weekend free. Jen also decided to make his favorite dinner--pot roast.

When Jonah arrived, he headed straight for the kitchen. "Oh... What smells so good?" Jen just smiled as she took the roast out of the oven. "oh, oh," Jonah said.

Jen placed the roast on the kitchen table. "What?" she asked.

Jonah smiled coyly, "Well, you usually make pot roast when you need a favor from me. So, what do you want?"

Jen placed her hands on her hips. ""Can't a girl make pot roast for her boyfriend without a interrogation?"

"Sure, usually," Jonah answered. "So, what's up?"

"Oh, nothing. I just thought we'd have a nice quiet dinner at home for a change. Everything's ready. Sit down, while I get the vegetables and wine."

"Wine too?" Jonah said as he took off his coat and tie. "I'm impressed." He sat down and pulled his wine glass closer. Jen returned with the wine already opened and pour a glass for Jonah and herself. Jonah sipped the wine. "Mmm. My favorite wine too. Are you sure you're not up to something?" He wrapped his arms around Jen's waist. Jen sat down on his lap and kissed him.

Jonan smiled and chuckled. "I know you're up to something. You know whenever you serve me pot roast, you can ask me anything and I'll do it. I'm a sucker for pot roast. Jen kept one arm around his neck and patted his chest with the other. "Okay, then. Here goes. Will you marry me?"

Jonah jerked his head back a little and laughed. "Did not see that coming."

"Well?" 

Jonah kissed her and whispered in her, "Yes, yes, a thousand times yes."
