We're getting Married!

It was just another Saturday night. I remember just going through the motions of the day and then getting invited to some girls birthday. So I went because what could go wrong. So here I am just minding my own business when a bunch of people I knew from high school walk in. I say hi and make a little small talk. Then go back to sitting on the couch. I remember seeing Derick and thinking "well he's cute" then next thing I know he lays across his friends on the couch and winds up using me as a pillow. The first words he ever said to me were "You're an awful pillow". We talked a little and then him and his friends left. We had hung out a few times after that. Not really knowing how the other one felt. Until he asked me to go hang out with him and I ended up meeting some of his family an friends. All night I got asked if he and I were together and I never knew what to tell them. So after we decided to leave and he walked me to my car I very casually(lol) asked him "what are we?" And we all know how that ended up. Madly in love

The day started with waking up in San Fran intending to go site seeing for our first visit to the city. Our first adventure was to Alcatraz Island to see the prison. It was such an amazing experience to see all that history. Rian didn't know Derick was so anxious and stressed trying to hide a ring box in his pocket the entire time. After returning back from the island we decided to get some food and check out Pier 39. We found an amazing restaurant there called Wipeout where we had great beer and even better food. The beer helped Derick calm down a little. While exploring the rest of the Pier Derick found the perfect spot to pop the question. At the end of the Pier you can view the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz. There is also a giant heart where many couples get their picture taken. We decided to join in the tourist activity and get our picture taken as well. Derick asked a cute couple walking by if they would act as the photographer. When handing his phone over and out of Rian's earshot he told them to record instead. Luckily enough Derick was somehow able to surprise Rian with a beautiful ring he personally designed for her. Her reaction was everything he hoped it would be and was the happiest moment of his life. So far. P.S She said "YES"
