Checkbox

~Happy Birthday Sve!~


You smiled as you snuggled up against your long time Swedish boyfriend, Berwald. He ruffled your hair slightly, his usual emotionless blue eyes looking gently at you.

Berwald had been your boyfriend for over nine years. You loved his social awkwardness. You loved how he always looked intimidating but was a real softie. You loved how he was a man of little words, yet able to communicate well. You loved every bit of him. And it all started with that little note you wrote when you were in Grade 10.

It was Valentines' Day and Berwald, back then, was your best friend. Too shy to confess, you slipped him a note with three small checkboxes, one saying 'am I a friend?', one saying 'or girlfriend?' and one saying 'or neither?'.

He had ticked 'girlfriend'.

He had stuck to you thick and thin, and had never cheated on you. You had never broken up with him, ever.

Now that you remembered, you reached to the table where a stack of Post-Its lay. You ripped one off and grabbed a pen, writing the same thing you had written all those years ago. Giggling, you handed the paper and pen to Berwald.

You watched as a rare smile sneaked onto his face. You waited while he wrote.

After a few more seconds he handed it back to you. You froze.

He had checked… neither.

Ready to cry, you realized there was something written on the back of the Post-It. You flipped it over.

Written on the other side was a checkbox and next to it was written 'M' wife?'

Your smile spread from ear to ear and it was hard to contain your excitement as you ticked the box and handed the paper back to him.

He looked, this time giving a wider smile and pulled a dark blue velvet ring box out of his pocket.

"_____? W'll you m'rry me 'nd be m' wife?"

"YES!"
