You have been living with your aunt, [name_f]Molly[/name_f], and her new husband, [name_u]Michael[/name_u], in Baton Rouge for 9 months. You have gotten a job as a teacher, but have yet to find a place of your own. They have been generous and hospitable towards you, but now you feel as though you have overstayed your welcome. Then, your uncle’s godson, [name_m]Henry[/name_m], calls you. A year ago, he bought a house and took in three roommates to help him pay the mortgage. One of those roommates is moving out soon and he heard you were looking for a new place to live. What he wants to know is, would you like the vacant bedroom? The house is closer to your work and your half of the pay is reasonable. You say yes without any second thought.
You, [name_m]Henry[/name_m], and two other roommates, [name_f]Kate[/name_f] and [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] live together nicely for eighteen months. But when the new year rings in, things quickly begin to change. [name_f]Kate[/name_f] gets a job in a new city and has to move. Six months later, [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] moves out to buy an apartment with his girlfriend. Now, it is just you and [name_m]Henry[/name_m]. You pretend that there is nothing wrong, but it’s obvious there is simmering sexual tension between you. He puts in an ad in the local newspaper and you spread the word around to your friends and co-workers, but no one seems terribly interested. Eventually, it becomes less awkward for you and [name_m]Henry[/name_m].
What happens between you and him? You and [name_m]Henry[/name_m] come home late from a friend’s birthday party, slightly drunk. You go upstairs to your bedroom to change. As you are undressing, he accidentally stumbles into your room. Blushing furiously and apologizing profusely, he tries to leave, but you stop him. You don’t know why–possibly liquid courage left over from the three beers–but you pull him back inside and kiss him passionately. After a heavy ten-minute make-out session, you lead him towards your bed. The next morning, you make love again–this time in his bedroom–causing you to be late to [name_f]Sunday[/name_f] brunch with your aunt and uncle. You show up at the restaurant holding hands with [name_m]Henry[/name_m].
You and [name_m]Henry[/name_m] live together and date for a year and 3 months. Then, your boyfriend is offered a job as an architect in another southern city and he really wants you to go with him. You are uncertain if you want to move again, but certainly do not want to break off the relationship. After that, your boyfriend’s best friend lets it slip that he caught your boyfriend looking at rings. You are not sure of what that means or if you are ready to take another chance at getting your heart broken again. But he changes your mind–with a beautiful ring, a wonderful proposal, and a heartfelt promise to always love you.
Where do you and he plan to move to? [name_m]New[/name_m] Orleans, [name_f]Louisiana[/name_f]
[name_m]How[/name_m] does he propose? He makes the box holding the engagement ring a selection on the dessert tray at your favorite restaurant.
