My fiance and I had been dating for almost three years when he proposed. I wake up at 9am with my sister jumping on my bed and saying good morning. It's our usual Saturday morning ritual to go to Starbucks and get fraps and bagels but today she wanted to go get brunch at a restaurant. We ate and then she wanted to go to Sprinkles for cupcakes. I got a 1/2 dozen and we browsed in Urban Outfitters until my sister stopped abruptly in the store and was like "we need to go home NOW. I don't feel good. I think it's food poisoning." I was concerned but didn't think too much of it.

We bought cupcakes for the people in the office at our apartment so we were chatting with them for a little then went up to the apartment. I went into my bedroom to set down my stuff and was making my way into the kitchen when I saw a shadow in the kitchen. I was like oh my god, there's a PROWLER in our APARTMENT and he's going to attack my twin sister and I. Then I see my sister whipping out my camera from her purse and starting to take pictures. Finally the shadow emerges and out popped my boyfriend out of the kitchen.  I was shocked. Still not getting it, I thought he just took an earlier train to the city since I was expecting him to arrive at 4. He gave me a hug and then told me to go into the family room where I finally started putting everything together. I was shaking so badly I couldn't even stand and I kept saying "oh my god...OH MY GOD." My fiance was so cute and was so smiley and asked me to be his wife. I guess I said "yes" before he even asked but I said yes again and he opened up the box to the most beautiful ring I have ever seen.
