Valentine's Day was coming up, and he wanted to plan something special. His brother told him about this amazing restaurant called Mastro's City Hall Steakhouse in Scottsdale and made a reservation for us. Thomas told me that is was really expensive and fancy, so I was super excited to dress up nice and go to dinner there. Earlier that week I had talked to someone who had been there, and they told me how nice it is and how it will cost at least $150. I was like holy crap.... dang haha. I had no clue it would be that expensive. She said that if he's taking me there, he's planning on doing something special (aka propose). I wasn't sure, because we had talked about waiting a couple more weeks at least. He seriously threw me off and made me think that it wasn't going to be on Valentine's Day.
Dinner was perfect. We had shrimp that was seriously the best I've ever had, and amazing steak. My favorite part of the meal, though, was the bread. It was delicious. I'm craving it now..... The dessert was fabulous, too.
At the end of our meal, the waiter comes to us and says "I'm sorry to tell you this, but I have some bad news..." We were like crap what is he going to say?? But then he goes on to say... "Your meal has been paid for." What?? We were so confused. He told us that Thomas' brother, Aaron, who made the reservation for us, had paid for our meal. It was like a Christmas present. Thomas almost started crying he was so happy (remember it was like a $150 or more meal haha). What a great start to our evening together =]
After dinner, we were talking about what we were going to do. We talked about maybe just going somewhere and talking, or walking around somewhere. He got a text from his mom saying that he needed to get these chairs from his aunt's house. Thomas felt bad because he said he was supposed to do that earlier but he forgot. I didn't think anything of it and didn't mind at all, because his aunt lives right by his house. We get there and start going through the side gate when I heard drums. I was like what is going on?? Thomas said it was probably the neighbors.... Liar! We go in the backyard to get the "chairs" (yeah that was a lie... and I totally didn't even expect anything because Thomas was so chill about everything and didn't even act like anything was going on!) and there was a band set up. Guitar, drums, piano, everything. There was a bench in the middle of the grass. Thomas told me to go sit down. Right when I saw this set up I knew he was going to propose =]
They played a song (Thomas, Ryan, Justin, Brian, and Stephen) that Thomas had wrote. It was about me and it was the sweetest thing ever. I was just sitting there with the hugest smile on my face. I was shocked to say the least. After the song, everyone left and Thomas came down to where I was sitting. He told me he loved me and wanted to marry me. I seriously don't even remember him asking me to marry him... I was in shock haha. I just remember grabbing his face and kissing him- so happy. I finally realized he was waiting for an answer haha so I said yes! Of course! We called family and went to see our parents and show them my ring. It was such a perfect night!!!!
I love this!!
