"I have had the worst day!" You exclaimed as you slammed the door shut behind you and stormed into the living room.

Anakin looked up at you with a frown, concern washing over his features. "You're home so late, baby, I was just about to go down there. What happened?"

"Ibrus kept me behind because, apparently, the way I clean the pizza ovens isn't to his standard," You ranted, pulling off your jacket before collapsing down on the sofa next to your boyfriend. His arm wrapped around your shoulder before you continued. "I cleaned it four times before he let me go, Ani. Four!"

He placed a kiss on your forehead and rubbed your arm. "I'm sorry, princess. If I could, I'd kill him for you."

You laughed softly, "If only. And now my sister is saying she's coming to visit us this weekend- like, are you fucking kidding me? I'd rather gouge out my eyes than have to listen to her rave about how amazing and fulfilling her life is, while being way too flirty with you."

"Jenn doesn't flirt with me," Anakin said with a slight frown.

"Of course you'd say that," You replied with an eye roll, before letting out an exaggerated sigh. "And I had the rudest customer today. Yes, I got your order wrong sir, I'm sorry! I'm not a droid; I make mistakes! I offered him a full refund and a new pizza for free, and you know what he did?"

"What did he do, sweetheart?" Anakin asked with knitted eyebrows, his kind eyes melting into yours.

You took a breath to compose yourself before answering. "He threw the pizza in my face!"

Anakin's jaw dropped slightly, "He fucking what?"

You nodded, "I almost cried. Actually, I did cry, but Ibrus wouldn't let me take a break so I had to stop crying to carry on getting slated by the other customers."

"I'm gonna find that man and kill him," Anakin vowed, stroking your hair. "I have no other choice."

"It was so humiliating, having to wipe pizza off my face in front of all those people while my tears mixed with the sauce. I think I'm gonna quit," You said with a sniffle. "I don't think I'm cut out to work in service. I should have done what Jenn did and carried on with school."

"You hated school," He said softly. "But I agree; this job isn't good for you. You need a break, and it isn't like we need the money."

"Anakin, I am going to find another job straight away," You promised, before letting out a frustrated sigh. "Jenn is gonna have so much fun patronising me about this. You know, she only ever comes when she has big news- she probably got promoted to like, CEO of the entire fucking galaxy, and she gets to sit in her fancy top-floor office with full length windows and a view of the city, and her assistant has an assistant, and she probably never gets pizza thrown in her face-"

"Marry me."

You stopped midway through your rant, your mouth remaining open as you stared up at him. There was a long silence as you processed his words, and you were half convinced that you had imagined them. "Uh... come again?"

"Marry me," Anakin repeated, a dazed look in his eye as a soft smile grew on his lips.

"Anakin... are you being serious?" You asked, your heart beating impossibly fast.

He pulled you onto his lap and held your face in his hands. "I love you more than anything, angel, marry me."

You were stunned. This had come out of nowhere, but it felt so right. "I love you, too. You really wanna marry me?"

Anakin nodded, "There's absolutely nothing that I could ever want more, than for you to be my wife."

"Even though I had cheese and sauce on my face not three hours ago?" You asked as tears built up in your eyes, a huge smile growing on your lips.

"That just makes your cheeks taste good when I kiss them," He answered before pecking your cheek.

"Even though I'm really bad at cleaning pizza ovens?"

"Somehow, I will manage to look past that," He replied, letting out a chuckle.

"Even though Jenn is the prettier sister?"

"She most definitely is not," Anakin calmly disagreed.

"In that case, I'm the perfect woman for you," You said as a tear escaped your eye.

"So you'll marry me?" He asked with wide, hopeful eyes.

You let out a soft scoff, "Yes! A hundred, million times yes!"

He kissed you deeply, your arms wrapping around his shoulders as he held you close to him.

You pulled away after a few moments and raised an eyebrow. "So, like... you bought me a ring, right?"

Anakin rolled his eyes with a smile before reaching into his pocket and pulling out a white velveteen box. He opened it to reveal the most beautiful ring you had ever seen, and you watched as it glistened when it hit the light.

"Holy fuck," You breathed out as he took it out and placed it onto your ring finger. Looking up at him with a sly grin, you held it up to your face. "I cannot wait to show this off to Jenn!"
