When i turned around to ask him why he wanted me to put that song on, he was down on one knee, and popped the question. After that, we drove around looking for an elegant restaurant to celebrate, but everywhere we went was packed, so we had our romantical dinner at Burger King (which actually had very nice music in the background), and then went to celebrate with the familiy
