Gypsy RoseTony’s Tale, Pt. 3
The velvet box weighed heavily in Tony’s pocket, as he smiled anxiously at Dagmar, “You look amazing tonight.”
“Oh stop,” Dagmar said, her cheeks rapidly turning red, “I wish I would have had time to change, but I didn’t want to be late.”
“Your beautiful no matter what you are wearing,” Tony said, causing her blush to rise higher.
“So, what is the special occasion,” Dagmar asked, redirecting the conversation.
Tony coughed slightly on his water, “Special occasion, what makes you think I have a reason for asking you to a nice dinner?”
“Nothing really,” Dagmar said, taking a bite of her appetizer, “it’s just that you dressed up and this restaurant is one of the hippest places downtown, I just figured there was something special going on.”
“Well,” Tony stammered, gingerly wrapping his fingers around the velvet box, “there is something special I wanted to ask you tonight.” He turned towards Dagmar and waited patiently for her gaze to meet his, “I love you, Dagmar.”
“I love you.”
Tony let out a rush of breathe, “I’ve never been happier then when I am with you and I don’t ever want you to leave my life.” He pulled the little, black box out of his pocket and placed it on the table, “will you marry me?”
“Oh Tony,” Dagmar said, tears welling in her eyes, “yes, I would be honored to marry you.”
“You’ve made me the so happy,” Tony said, placing his hand on the table, “and I will try my hardest to make you happy during our entire marriage.”
Dagmar placed her newly adorned hand on top of his, “I know you will and there is nothing more I could ask for.”
Now how will Rosslyn react to that news? Let’s just hope these two kids will wait long enough for Tony to finish school!
Awwww how sweet but what about mom? I guess he better graduate from college or he’ll disappoint Roslyn like his sister did.
Wow, I’m interested to see the interaction between Anna and her mother when they talk about her recent decisions or lack of (as far as Ros is concerned). haha And whoo hooo! A big date with Dagmar! That should be really sweet too.
Wow, their mom is really upset about Anna getting married. I understand why, but doesn’t she realize that Anna has to live her own life? Go, Tony! Tony & Dagmar, sitting in a tree . . .
Awwww YAY for Tony & Dagmar,
Eek for Anna & Ramin. I’m scared for Anna when she next meets her mum!
I understand why Roslynn is upset with Tony for not telling her, but she really shouldn’t browbeat him for it either. It wasn’t his secret to tell. And she certainly shouldn’t tell Tony he should have broken his promise to his sister. If he’d done that, then I can guarantee you Anna would never go to Tony with anything again! Roslynn needs to come to terms that just because SHE believes Anna was meant for something more doesn’t mean that what Anna has isn’t exactly what she wanted. (Considering that’s a conversation MY mom and I have repeatedly, I’m gonna side with Anna on this one!) I just hope Anna has made the right decision and will be happy with Ramin. Heh, Tony is definitely laying on the charm big time there, ain’t he! Poor Tony. He looks SO NERVOUS! He shouldn’t. Just look at the excitement on Dagmar’s face.
I love your closing shot.
LOL - yeah, Tony looks like he’s sweating bullets there! Of course Dagmar said yes - who could resist?! Yes, I fear Anna is going to have her hands full with Roslynn. Maybe mom will come around once the grandkids start arriving!
Oh yay! What a sweet proposal! I thought it was so funny how Dagmar had that woman’s intuition that something big was about to happen! I loved it! And as for the whole Ros situation, I’m still not sure if it’s true love…or if he married her to get his hands on the money! I’m scared that she’s being tricked! I guess I’m a worry-wart like her mother! Hehehe. Great update!
