Oh. Oh. For some reason, Gabriel hadn't even thought about this being a possibility. He'd thought they might get married someday, maybe even several decades in the future. When Jack wanted. Gabriel had tried to rush things so quickly at first that he put on the brakes hard once they'd talked that out.
And here Jack was, on one knee with a ring.
Tears clouded his vision as he smiled wide at the man. This spot was beautiful. Everything was perfect. "You don't even have to ask it," Gabriel said, reaching out carefully to take the ring. "You know the answer already." And if not, everything in his eyes said yes.
Of course bonding was more important than marriage to non-Betas. But for two who had rather accidentally bonded, this was- well, it was furthering the commitment. It was thoughtful. And it was certainly romantic, a trait that Jack and Gabriel both shared. And they would share it until the end of time itself. Gabriel felt the weight of that settle in further, and it was possibly the most wonderful thing he'd ever felt.
