The trip up to the north east had been a fairly long one, but he knew it would be worth it. He wanted this moment to be absolutely perfect and he knew the exact place that would give him the scene that he wanted. He was glad that he didn't have to do much convincing when it came to getting Azariah to come with him, though there was a good bit of pestering involved when he told her that it was a surprise when she asked for the reason behind their trip. The whole way up to Firefly Lake they passed the time with easy chatter and quick, stolen kisses, but he couldn't help but feel a bit nervous as they got closer and closer to their intended destination. He liked to think that there was no reason to be nervous, but he was. Not necessarily that she would say no to his question, but simply because of his desire to make this moment absolutely perfect for her.

They reached the lake just as the sun was beginning to dip below the horizon. He was so glad that he had gotten his timing right. So far things were going off without a hitch and he just hoped that his luck continued. "This way," he told her with a smile before walking toward the shore of the lake. He stepped into the thick row of reeds and pulled them to the side to give her a free passage way to pass through, exposing the soft, sand covered shore that laid just behind it. It also revealed the lake that stretched out in front of them that reflected the stars that were just beginning to peek through the night sky. Perfect, this is exactly what he wanted. Every time something went according to plan in eased a bit of his nerves, but he still couldn't help but feel a bit anxious. It was a big, official step for them both and he wanted this to be something they could remember forever.

He let her pass through to the beach before following her through as well. Once she was seated on the sand he settled onto his haunches behind her and wrapped his forelegs around her so that he could hold her against him with her back to his chest, peering down at her with a warm smile. "Your surprise will be here in just a moment," he told her as he dipped his head to place a gentle lick on her forehead. He looked back out over the water and after a few moments he spotted the first firefly, bringing a wider smile to his lips. One was quickly joined by another and soon enough the whole lake was lit up with what could have been hundreds or thousands of fireflies. He squeezed Azariah gently in his arms and he looked down to see her reaction as he thought back to when they first met in front of the waterfall. It felt like so long ago now, but it also felt like it could have been yesterday.
