Spring, spring had 'sprung' as the phrase went. Robins were singing in the trees, children playing in the park where the ebony eyed, dark haired man sat relaxed. Don't get him wrong he was nervous, he had a -really- expensive diamond ring in his pocket. The band was platinum, it had two rubies and one emerald on one side of the diamond, and two sapphires and an onyx on the other side. An inscription on the inside of the band read 'You can unlock any door... if you only have the key. You have the key to my heart, and you unlocked the secrets of it. Thank you, my love.'
He had sent a text message to Vivian not much more than ten minutes ago, but it felt like years. As he sat on the bench and waited, he went over how he was going to propse to her. Yes, this was the infamous Agent Z, and he was going over how to propose to Vivian. The love of his life. Maybe he shouldn't surprise her too much, after all, almost nine months exactly carrying his child, she could have it any day now. Maybe he would just go with the classic proposal. Yeah, tht would probably be his best bet.
The text he had sent ten minutes before had read
'Ivy,
Come to the park, and bring a friend or two, I have a surprise for you...'
He had, so far, gained about 75% of his memories back, that meant he wasn't too far behind with the whole regaining his memory thing, in fact, he was actually ahead of schedule with regaining the memories.

Vivian laughed as she looked through all the clothes. It was now she heard her phone buzz and she opened it up "jeez, I can't go shopping for two seconds can I?" she said to the girls and laughed. She raised one eyebrow "the park? a suprise? what is he on about" she rolled her eyes and then paid for louds of clothes she could wear after labour. She really didn't want to go to the park "should we have a coffee first or do you think its urgent" she told them lifting the bags off the counter. He had known she went shopping and she then put the bag down and texted back 'I'm shopping, give me some time or its designer on your credit card' she pressed send and put her phone back it her pocket. Somehow, she really wasn't in the mood to go and meet him as she was having fun shopping for clothes that didn't even fit her yet.
She was wondering about the suprise, a new dog or he has tickets for her to go to England while he solves another crime? She really wanted to know this suprise and then looked at the girls "any ideas what this big suprise is about?". She started to walk out of the shop and caught a taxi "might as well go, I need to see this suprise" she laughed and sat in. No one had ever said they had a 'suprise' for her but then again none of her relationships had ever been serious. It was playing on her mind now, what was this big surprise and why bring people. It was really confusing her, she was puzzled now.

Roxanne
Roxy looked through the clothes methodically, muttering things like "Stupid shopping" or "The things I do for my friends", under her breath as she went. Point blank, Roxy hated shopping. But when Viv had asked her to go for a girls day out, she couldn't say no. If only for the fact that Vivian was her friend, and she hated to disappoint her friends. Picking out a shirt, she cirnged when she saw the pink flower design that was previously hidden by the other shirts it was with. Hurriedly, she put it back, dropping it on the rack as if it had burned her. The majority of the things in the store Viv wanted to look through, disgusted Roxy. Then again, all to his, or rather, her own. Viv's style was far different from her own, but she would survive. She hoped.
The sound of a cellphone, caused her to turn around to see what was going on. She grinned at Viv's comment but turned back and continued to look, her look of disgust once again appeared on her face. She perked up when she heard what Viv said. It could only be Z, so she was curious. She listened to Viv talk about it, wondering if they should go get coffee first, or head straight to the park. Roxy stayed quiet, waiting for her to reach a decision. When they caught a taxi, Roxy chuckled when Viv spoke. A smile played across Roxy's lips, she had an idea what the surprise what, but she wasn't going to say anything. She hopped into the taxi after Viv.

Stella was, really and truly, annoyed with this whole expedition. And wondering why in the world she had agreed to go shopping with a love-struck fiend like Vivian. It was all Viv had talked about this whole time and, too be honest, Stella was a little disgusted by the whole pregnant thing. She had never liked infants. She also wasn't too thrilled with Roxy's apparent hate of shopping. Why would you come along if you were going to murmur and complain under your breath the whole time? She could at least pretend... Although Stella was finding it hard to keep her faux optimism about Viv and the great and mysterious Z up at the moment. Nonetheless, she was willing to be dragged around. Why? She wasn't really sure. She didn't really like Viv's pompous boyfriend, either. He had kissed Roxy, after all, hadn't he?
Stella was trying to pretend that she didn't know that. But word travelled fast, and all roads led to the attentive ear. (It had been Grace, in fact, who had accidentally spread the rumor. Somehow.) Stella kept quiet through the whole ordeal, basically, biting back her acrid tongue to keep her words in check. But her patience was wearing even thinner now, as they were ousted from the mall by the lovestruck one. Stella could tell that allegiances had shifted here. Viv obviously valued Z more highly than her friends, and well it was not uncalled for, it annoyed Stella. Lovers always left, in the end. And lied. And familiarity always bred contempt. Even if it took years and years, and even if nothing came of it at all. Stella attempted to push this pessimistic thought away, and climped into the taxi with a sigh and a light frown tracing her lips.

Z had received the text after a moment, and chuckled slightly. "Designer on my credit card, eh?" He wondered aloud as he continued to relax on the bench. He took out the small velvet-lined box, opening it just enough he could see inside of it. The ring was quite magnificent, expensive, fancy, lots of really good things going on with this ring. But there was something odd about him today, not only was he nervous yet calm, which was odd enough, but he was also somewhat quiet today. Ever since his amnesia ordeal, he seemed quieter than before when he was usually outspoken. He sighed softly, he crossed his legs oneover the other, his arms relaxing behind him across the back of the bench, and he tilted his head back and closed his eyes, he was quite comfortable right now, well, not necessarily comfortable, since he was so nervous. He stood up, and started pacing back and forth, going over his proposal.

"Lighten up Stella, just wait to you find a guy here" she said and then giggled "what 'bout that new Doctor". She then looked at Roxy, and nudged her "you know something, I can tell" she said and rolled her eyes. She wanted to know this big surprise, it was eating away at her. Vivian had never liked surprises, she would always find out quickly in any way possible to know. She looked out the window, watching everything go past and she sighed. She then thought of something and looked at Roxy "tell me what it is, or I tell Rory you fancy him" she said smiling. Then she crossed her legs and giggled "you do fancy him though, I can tell and he is so totally in to you". She looked at Stella, she was like herself before she came to this town "I am still going to set you up with someone, just because I can" she said to Stella. Somehow she was in a really good mood but maybe it was because she was crying all day yesterday, but it was only her mood swings. As soon as the baby was born she would be back to her old self again, and be able to try on the things she brought at the shops.
When the taxi finally slowed she could already see Ziggy pacing and she opened the door and stepped out. She paid the taxi driver and started to walk toward Ziggy, she put the bags of clothes down and smiled at him. "So what's this big suprise?" she asked, no idea what it was and she was slightly worried. It was weird, she would normally guess suprises so easily but right now she was at a blank. Vivian yawned, she got so tired now and it was bad for Tyme as she couldn't ride her anymore. She had gone into the stables often enough to see her, the horse provided comfort to her and she would walk her to the pasture to run around. It was nothing like to ride though, to gallop around and feel the wind in her hair. She then looked back up at Z again, she had been day dreaming again. She had a smile on her face, she was excited about this suprise.

Roxanne
Roxy raised an eyebrow at VIv. With all her heart, she highly doubted Stella was going to 'find a guy here', as Vivian had put it. The other girl was more uptight and didn't believe in love. Pessimistic in the aspect. Roxy herself wasn't to big on it, she didn't like spending time worrying over guys, and refused to do so. She was a tomboy at heart, and that was probably the reason why she was frustrated at being guilt tripped into coming on a shopping spree. At a nudge, Roxy turned to look at Viv, smirking at what her friend said. "You only have to get to the park to find out, so it doesn't matter if I know something or not" She replied calmly, her brown eyes sparkling in mirth. Roxy tapped her fingers on her legs, waiting for the car ride to be over. She didn't like cars, more of a truck kind of girl, for transportation, or motorcycles, but she was never able to convince herself to get one, they were impractical. When she felt Viv look at her, she glanced over, raising one eyebrow suspiciously at her friend. Her brown eyes flashed, it wasn't even okay to joke like that. "I don't fancy anyone. Besides, Rory would never believe you if you told him I did. Which I don't." She denied stubbornly. She would not get caught in the madness of dating.
When the taxi finally stopped, she waited for Viv to get out, before jumping out of the car quickly. She sighed in relief, cars made her claustrophobic almost. With one hand, she tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, looking towards the park and spotting Z walking back and forth, seemingly nervous. She grinned, her suspicions about the surprise, confirmed. Viv, however, was still, apparently, clueless. She chuckled when her friend asked Z what the surprise was. Roxy walked up towards them, but stood off to the left, so that she was there, but not intruding on anything, private. When she saw Viv yawn, she glanced down at the ground, worried about her friend, she was almost ready to have the baby after all.

Z looked at Vivian. "Vivian, it's been almost a year since we -first- met, so, I think the time is right..." He said, reacing into his jacket pocket and kneeling down as he did so. "Vivian, before anything else happens to you or to me," He began, turning the little velvet box so that it faced her. "Will you... marry me?" He asked, opening the box to reveal the diamond engagement ring with the varius other gem accents, the platinum band, and the inscription on the inside of the band. I know the ring probably wasn't the -very- best he could afford, but it was the only one that reminded him of her with such beauty. [Please say yes, Vivian...] he thought silently as he stared up at her expectantly, waiting for an answer. After what would seem like an eternity, but he continued to wait for her answer.

Vivian listened intently at his words, she nodded and then looked puzzled. When he went down on one knee she gasped, it couldn't be this. But, it was as he opened the box to show a engagement ring and she smiled. Her eyes watered but then the gaze turned worried. She looked around her and then back at Ziggy, she opened her mouth but no words came out this couldn't be happening. Not right now. She then breathed in slowly "Ziggy, I think my waters have just broke" she said quickly. She walked over to the bench and sat down, so many emotions were going through her head right now and most of all she was scared. She looked at Ziggy, at the ring and smiled a weak smile. "Yes, I will marry you" she whispered and stood and breathed in and out. She then laughed a little as she thought of it, he must of shocked the kid right out of her.

Z watched her for a moment and when she said that her water had broke, he nodded, taking out his cell phone and dialingup the emergency 911 line. But he smiled when she said that she would marry him. He was immediately connected to an emergency clinic nearby as he told the person on the other end of the line that his girlfriend was in labor, where they were, all that good stuff and what not. He then sighed in relief when they said that the ambulance was on teir way and that they would stay on the line if he needed them to. Which, Z said that it would be fine if they stayed on the line with him, Then he walked over to Vivian, taking her hand in his to let her squeeze it to try to make her feel a little bit better about the whole thing.
