Ryan took a deep breath as he arrived in front of Maggie's door. He patted his pocket, making sure that the ring was still there. It'd been a few months since he and Maggie talked about the whole marriage thing and, now, he was sure. He wanted to spend the rest of his life with her and he hoped she was going to say yes.
"Maggie? You home?" he asked, knocking on the door.
--
Adri rolled over in her bed, reaching over for her cellphone and turning off the alarm. She hated being sick and all she wanted to do was stay in bed all day. Groaning, she pulled the covers over her head and decided it was just better to stay indoors.

Maggie was in the middle of icing a cake someone was paying her to make, but she put the spatula down to answer the door. She wasn't even close to being dolled up -- in jeans and a tank top, apron around her waist. "Ryan? Hey, baby, what are you doing here?" She kissed him, letting him in. "I didn't know you were coming over today."
--
Tyler and Adri had been dating since Thanksgiving (much to the joy of Ryan and Maggie), and he even had a key now. He used it to let himself in, with a bag from the local deli holding styrofoam bowls of chicken soup. "Adri? Baby? You up?"

"Just, uh, wanted to say hi," he smiled, returning her kiss. "You busy? I can come back at another time..."
--
"No, I look gross," she muttered from under the covers, determined to not have Tyler see her looking extremely sick.

Maggie shook her head. "No, it's fine baby. You know I always like seeing you." She smiled at him, moving back to the kitchen, continuing to ice the cake.
--
He chuckled, setting the bag on the floor and moving to sit on the edge of the bed, rubbing her back. "Ya do not. Yer just sick."

"Got another huge order?" he grinned, watching her as she went back to her cake.
--
"Exactly," she mumbled, hiding her face in a pillow. "Shouldn't have given you a key..."

"Not huge. Just a cake for an engagement party. They're picking it up tomorrow." She picked up her icing bag, making little blue flowers on the top of the cake.
--
"Aw, baby, but then how could I have brought ya soup, huh?" He leaned down, kissing the back of her head. "Come on, Sugar, ya need to eat."

"I think that's pretty huge," smirked Ryan, sitting down on a stool. He figured he'd at least let her finish the cake, more for the sake of the cake and her nerves.
--
"Okay, fine, just for you," she muttered, sighing as she pushed herself off the bed and looked at Tyler. "What soup did you bring?"

Maggie laughed, adding green leaves, then writing "Congratulations Bob and Darla" in pretty cursive. "Done!"
--
"Chicken noodle from Weiler's Deli. Always makes me feel better. It's almost as good as my mama makes." He reached in the bag, pulling out the container of soup and a spoon.

"Pretty," he chuckled, standing up and putting his arms around his waist as he kissed her on the cheek.
--
"Almost?" she smirked, sniffling as she reached over a tissue to blow her nose before taking the spoon from Tyler.

She smiled, moving away to cover the cake and put it in the fridge. "Thanks, honey. So, what'd you do today?"
--
"Almost." He grinned, holding the container for her while she ate. "Better?"

"I was, uh, at work," he replied awkwardly, hoping that she didn't notice his nerves. "Y'know, the usual. Been baking all day?"
--
"Little bit," she smiled, looking at him gratefully. "You should leave soon... I don't want you getting the flu either..."

She did notice his hesitation, which was weird, because it seemed like a weird thing to lie about. "Yeah, mostly." She gave him a curious look. "Everything okay?"

"Yeah, of course," nodded Ryan, pulling her in for a kiss. "What're you doing for the rest of the day? Can I steal you away?"

((Bah! Sorry, I don't know why I forgot about Tyler!))
She kissed him, tilting her chin up to look at him. "Sure. Do I need to change?"
--
He shook his head. "Nuh uh. I ain't gonna leave ya. I'm gonna take care of ya, don't worry."
