Tk was in the kitchen making breakfast when Carlos came downstairs. Carlos smiled to himself as he watched TK in the kitchen. Quietly sitting down at the island, just watching TK. TK continued to cook and dance to the music, not noticing that Carlos was watching. Carlos stood up and moved behind TK, placing his hand gently on TK’s hip.

‘Whoa,“ Tk jumped. "I didn’t know you were down here,” TK said.
“I know, I’ve been watching you,” Carlos smiled.
“Wait really?” Tk asked.
“Yes,” Carlos wrapped his arm around TK’s waist. “You are so cute,” Carlos said.
“Why thank you” TK smiled as he leaned back against Carlos.
“What are you making this morning?” Carlos asked.
“Just pancakes,” TK smiled.
“Nice, I can cut fruit and cook sausage,” Carlos said.
“Sounds good,” Tk said as he gently pulled away from Carlos.

Carlos started cooking as TK turned around to focus on making pancakes. While Carlos was preparing the fruit, the knife slipped and he cut himself.

“Shit” Carlos said as he grabbed his hand.
“What?” TK said as he turned around.
“It’s nothing,” Carlos said.
“Clearly Not,” Tk said as he walked towards Carlos. “There is blood,” TK said. “Let me see?” Tk asked.
“I’m fine,” Carlos said.
“You always baby me, so let me baby you,” Tk said as he gently took Carlos’s hand in his. Checking out the cut.
“It’s nothing TK,” Carlos said.
“Sit down and let me determine that,” TK said.  

Carlos sighed and sat down at the table. Tk grabbed the first aid kit and kneeled in front of Carlos. Taking Carlos’s hand in he checked out the cut. He cleaned it up and placed a bandaid on his finger. Gently kissing it before looking up at Carlos.

“See, I told you,” Carlos said.
“You deserve to be babied from time to time,” Tk said.
“But you are my baby” Carlos smiled and leaned down, kissing Tk.
“And you are my baby” Tk whispered against Carlos’s lips.
“Let’s finish breakfast before we burn down the house” Carlos chuckles slightly.
'Yea let’s do that" TK smiled as he stood up.

Carlos got up from the table, snaking his arms around Tk. Gently kissing TK before going back to cutting up the fruit. TK finished up with the pancakes as Carlos finished cooking the sausage. They made each other’s plates and sat down at the table together.

“So I have a question for you,” Carlos said.
“What babe?” TK asked as he looked at Carlos.
“So I know we have vacation time, what about we take it?” Carlos asked.
“Yes we could,” TK said. “Where do you want to go?” he asked.
“I would love to take you to Paris,” Carlos smiled.
“Paris” Tk nodded. “In the wintertime?” Tk asked.
“Of course, I’m sure it’s beautiful over there,” Carlos said.
“Well I’ll put in for my vacation time and get my passport ready” TK smiled as he took Carlos’s hand.
“I will do the same,” Carlos smiled, taking TKs hand and kissing it softly.
“I love you” Tk whispered.
“I love you” Carlos placed his hands against Tk’s cheeks, kissing him softly.

TK stood up and went upstairs. He got ready for his shift and left the house. Carlos lagged because he didn’t have a shift but wanted TK to think he did. He had plans to do something else but also get things ready for their upcoming trip. Carlos got onto his computer and booked everything for their upcoming trip. There was one last thing that Carlos needed to do and that was go ring shopping. He had plans to propose to TK but he wanted to make sure everything was perfect. Which included finding the perfect ring. He left the apartment and went downtown to a jewelry store.

'Hello Sir, how can I help you?“ the salesperson said.
"I’m looking for a ring,” Carlos smiled slightly.
“What does she like?” the guy asked
“He, I was looking for a ring for my boyfriend,” Carlos corrected the guy.
“Sorry” the guy nodded and showed Carlos some rings.
“That’s the perfect one,” Carlos said as he picked up a ring.
“Yea it is perfect,” the guy said.
“I’ll take it,” Carlos nodded.

The guy placed the ring in the ring case. Carlos paid for the ring and left the shop. Now there was only one thing that he needed to do before leaving for Paris. That was asking Owen for TK’s hand, that’s the part Carlos was nervous about. He pulled up to the fireplace and the nerves started to kick in. He took a deep breath in before walking in, TK smiled as he saw Carlos.

“Hey baby,” TK said as he walked up to Carlos.
“Hey, you” Carlos smiled as he snaked his arm around TK’s waist.
“I thought you had a shift,” TK said.
“In a few hours,” Carlos nodded.
“Oh ok,” Tk said. “Why are you here?” TK asked.
“I need to talk to Owen, is he around?” Carlos asked.
“In his office babe,” TK said as he kissed Carlos’s cheek.
“Ok babe” Carlos smiled as he looked at TK.
“Hope it’s nothing serious,” Tk said.
“Don’t worry” Carlos nodded as he walked away from TK.

Carlos walked up the stairs and made his way into Owens office. Carlos knocked softly and Owen nodded him in as he was on the phone. Carlos took a seat and waited for Owen to finish up with his phone call. Soon Owen was finished; he sat down and focused his attention on Carlos.

“How can I help you today Carlos?” Owen asked.
“I needed to ask you something,” Carlos said.
“Ok, ask away,” Owen said.
“Well you know TK and I have been pretty serious since the first time we met,” Carlos said.
“Yea everyone knows that” Owen nodded.
“I wanted to know if I had your blessing to ask him to marry me,” Carlos said.
“You’re asking for my son’s hand in marriage?” Owen asked.
“Yes,” Carlos said.
“Carlos” Owen said as he got up and leaned against his desk in front of Carlos. “Of course you do,” Owen smiled.
“Oh thank you,” Carlos said as he let out a breath, not realizing he was holding his breath.
“I couldn’t ask for a better son-in-law,” Owen said.
“Thank you, sir,” Carlos said as he stood up.
“I’m sure he will love whatever you have planned,” Owen said as he hugged Carlos.
“Yea I hope so” Carlos nodded.

Carlos leaves Owen’s office and makes his way downstairs. He said his goodbyes to the 126 crew and TK. He left the firehouse and went back to their house. He checked another thing off his to-do list. Later that day he went into work and asked for two weeks off. He went on with his shift like nothing was happening. A few days went by and they were packing for their trip.

“So you got any plans?” TK asked.
“What do you mean?” Carlos looked at TK.
“Like what we are doing in Paris?” Tk looked at Carlos.
“Just tourist things” Carlos nodded as he turned his focus back on packing.
“Sounds good” TK laid on the bed.
“Come on, you need to pack,” Carlos said.
“Make me” TK smiled.
“Uh-huh” Carlos rolled his eyes as he walked by the bed, TK grabbed his arm. Pulling him down over the top of him.
“This is a better idea” TK leaned up and kissed Carlos softly.
“It is,” Carlos said as he leaned on his elbows, leaning down kissing TK. “But our plane leaves in the morning,” Carlos said.
“Shh,” Tk whispered before kissing Carlos, pulling on his bottom lip.

TK placed his hands against Carlos’ hips, slowly moving them up. Grabbing his shirt and pulling it off as he placed his hand against Carlos’s cheek. Carlos rolled his eyes playfully and leaned in, giving into Tk. Carlos moved his lips from TK’s to down to TKs neck, kissing softly. He started sucking against TKs neck, as he slipped TKs shirt off. Carlos moves down TKs body, leaving a trail of kisses down his body. Making his way down to TK’s pants, looking up to see TKs reaction. TK reaches down and runs his hand in Carlos’s curls.

“I love you” Tk whispers.
“I love you” Carlos smiles.

Instead of packing, they got tangled up in the sheets. TK rested his head against Carlos’ chest as they caught their breaths. Finally, Carlos got up out of bed and got dressed. Going back to packing and this time TK also started to pack as well. TK went into the bathroom to pack his toiletries. Carlos slipped the ring into his suitcase, making sure if TK went through it Tk wouldn’t be able to find it.

“Got everything babe?” TK asked.
“Yeah pretty much” Carlos smiled as he stood up.
“Good” TK smiled.
“I only truly need you” Carlos snaked his arm around TKs waist, pulling him close.
“True” Tk smiled as he placed his hand on Carlos’ neck
“Oh, so you don’t just need me?” Carlos raised his eyebrow.
“You know I do” Tk leaned in and kissed Carlos softly.

They rested for the rest of the night but tried not to fall asleep. They knew it was a pretty long flight so they wanted to sleep on the plane. They left their house and Owen dropped them off at the airport.

“Have fun,” Owen said as he hugged TK.
“Thanks, Dad,” Tk said.
“Good luck,” Owen whispered into Carlos’ ear as he hugged him.
“Thank you” Carlos nodded.
“Ready babe?” Tk asked.
“Yea ready” Carlos took TKs hand and they walked into the airport.

They got through security pretty quickly and boarded their plane. TK leaned his head against Carlos’s shoulder as Carlos laced their fingers together. They drifted off asleep as their plane took off.

“Baby” Carlos whispered into Tks ear. “Wake up” he kissed Tks forehead.
“Uh?” Tk opened his eyes slightly.
“We are here” Carlos rubbed TKs hand.
“Oh” TK yawned and stretched before getting up.

Carlos stood up as well and followed TK out of the plane. They gathered their things before walking out of the airport. Carlos yields a taxi, opening the door for TK. They made their way to the hotel where they were staying for two weeks. While Tk was amazed at the view of the hotel Carlos walked up to the desk.

“Bonjour, j'ai une réservation sous Reyes” Carlos said.
“Bonjour, votre numéro de chambre est le 103. Quelqu'un vous aidera avec les sacs” the desk clerk said.
“Merci” Carlos Said.
“Wait, you know French?” Tk asked.
“A little bit” Carlos nodded as he took Tks hand. “Enjoying the view?” Carlos asked.
“It’s breathtaking,” TK said.
“It truly is,” Carlos smiled. “Someone is going to help with our bags and show us to our room” Carlos nodded.
“OK babe,” Tk said.
“C'est la première fois que vous venez à Paris ?” the help asked as he grabbed their bags.
“Oui c'est notre première fois” Carlos said.
“You’re so sexy when you speak French,” Tk said.
“Oh stop it” Carlos gently pushed Tk.

The guy led them to their room and opened the door for them. Placing their bags inside and closing the door while he left. Tk looked around the hotel room as Carlos lay on the bed. Tk checked the bathroom before making his way to the bed. Sitting on Carlos’s lap, rubbing his chest as he leaned down kissing him softly. Running his hand through Carlos’ hair, Carlos took a deep breath in and closed his eyes. Tk leans down kissing Carlos’s cheek softly before snuggling with him. Carlos wraps his arm around Tk as they rested on the bed. Later on that day Carlos moved Tk onto the bed and went into the bathroom. He got into the shower to freshen up, that’s when TK woke up. Joining Carlos in the shower, wrapping his arm around his waist.

'Need help?“ Tk smirked.
"Always” Carlos smiled as Tk started to wash Carlos’ body.
“I love every inch of you” Tk looked at Carlos, peeking his lips softly.
“And I love every inch of you” Carlos placed his hands against Tks hips, picking him up and pinning him against the wall.

TK wrapped his legs around Carlos, making sure he was stable before leaning over kissing Carlos. Carlos’ hands slipped to TKs ass, gripping it to make sure he had control over Tk. Make sure TK wouldn’t slip before kissing TK back, moving his lips down to his neck. Sucking gently as TK slanted his head so Carlos could have better access.

“As fun as this is, I think we should focus on just cleaning up,” Carlos said as he placed Tk back on his feet.
“AW,” Tk pouted.
“We haven’t eaten much today so we need to get food” Carlos peeked at Tks lips.
“True” Tk sighed as he knew Carlos was right.

They finished in the shower and got dressed. TK went through Carlos’ bag to find a jacket, as Carlos watched TK he held his breath. Hoping Tk wouldn’t find the ring, he sighed with relief when TK just pulled out a jacket. They left their hotel room and went out to the lobby. Carlos checked his phone to make sure he knew where he wanted to take TK. They walked down the street and found a little cafe. Carlos held the door for Tk as they walked in. Tk went to find them a seat while Carlos ordered their drinks and food.

“Bonjour, Que me conseillez-vous ?” Carlos asked.
“The raspberry tea is pretty good. Are you into tea or coffee?” The barista said.
“Oh you speak English,” Carlos said.
'Yea some of us do but your French is pretty good,“ she said.
"Thanks,”  Carlos nodded. “I’ll take two of your best teas and sandwiches,” Carlos said.
“Alright,” she said as she rang him up.

Carlos collected the food and found where TK was at. Placing the food and drinks in front of him before sitting next to TK. TK didn’t even question it as he started to eat. Carlos also started to eat as well, they both loved it. Once they finished eating, they walked around just sightseeing. Taking in every breath of Paris, every sight just enjoying their moments together. Over the next week, they did as much as they could but also relaxed in their hotel room as well. It was finally the night that Carlos chose to propose.

“Hey babe what are we doing today?” Tk asked as he walked out of the bathroom, with a towel wrapped around his waist.
“Losing that towel” Carlos smirked as he pulled off TKs towel.
“Well, now what?” Tk chuckled.
“You in this bed” Carlos pulled Tk’s to the bed.
“Well now, what since you got me here?” TK asked as he laid back.
“Well that’s for another day” Carlos smiled. “We have plans to view the Eiffel Tower,” Carlos said.
“Finally,” Tk said as he got off the bed.
“What?” Carlos asked.
“I’ve been wanting to see the Eiffel Tower since we got here,” TK said.
“Oh,” Carlos nodded.
“Isn’t it getting late for tours?” TK asked.
“It’s a private tour,” Carlos said.
“Oh ok,” Tk said as he started to get dressed.

Carlos started to get ready, putting the ring box in his pocket. He looked at himself in the mirror and took a deep breath in, trying to calm his nerves. TK came behind him wrapping his arms around his waist, leaning his head against Carlos’ shoulder. Carlos leaned against TK, taking in the moment with him. Carlos finally pulled away from TKs grip and grabbed his phone.

“Ready?” Carlos asked.
“Yea I am” TK leaned in and kissed Carlos softly.

Carlos smiled against Tks lips before pulling away. They left their hotel room and caught a taxi to get to the Eiffel Tower. Carlos was quite the ride, trying to get his mind to stop racing. TK played with Carlos’ hand, as he looked out the window. Taking in all the sights of Paris.  

“Hey, babe?” Tk finally broke the silence in the car.
“Uh?” Carlos said as he looked at TK.
“Why are you nervous?” Tk questioned.
“I’m not, I just want tonight to be perfect,” Carlos said.
“Every night is perfect with you,” Tk said as he brushed his thumb against Carlos’s hand.
“You have a way with words,” Carlos smiled.
“Of course” Tk chuckled slightly.

The taxi finally pulled up to the Eiffel tower and that’s when TK realized Carlos went all out for tonight.

“Wow, babe,” TK said.
“All for you” Carlos kissed Tks cheek before turning to the taxi driver “Merci, bonne soirée,” Carlos said as he handed the man the money.
“Merci. Bonne chance” the driver said.
“I will never get over the fact that you speak French,” Tk said as he placed his arm around Carlos.
“I’m full of surprises,” Carlos smiled as he placed his arm around TKs shoulder.  

Carlos pulled out Tks chair, kissing his cheek before Tk sets down. Carlos sits across from TK as the waitress walks up. Taking their order and walking away. Another gentleman walks up and fills their wine glasses.

“Are you ok?” Carlos asked.
“Yea” Tk nods as he has flashbacks from when he was going to propose to Alex.
“I hope this isn’t too much. ” Carlos reaches for Tks hand, brushing his thumb against TKs hand.
“Maybe a little if I’m honest,” Tk says.
“Everything is ok babe” Carlos reminds Tk.
“Yea I know” Tk speaks softly.

The food arrived and they started to eat. They enjoyed their dinner and even dessert. After they finished eating Carlos stood up and grabbed TKs hand. Tk stood up and they walked around the Eiffel tower for a second. Carlos stood in front of Tk, taking both of his hands.

“Ok right here,” Carlos said as he took a deep breath in.
“What babe?” TK asked.
“I know things haven’t always been smooth between us but from the first moment I saw you, I knew I wanted you to be mine. From not knowing if you will survive, multiple times now, I know I can’t live my life without you. so Tyler Kennedy” Carlos said as he got down on one knee. “Will you do me the greatest honor and become my husband?” Carlos asked.
“Carlos” Tk gasped as he looked at Carlos, placing his hands over his mouth. He nodded yes because he couldn’t find the words.

Carlos smiled and slipped the ring onto TKs hand. Standing up and bringing TK into his arms. Holding TK close as Tk finally wraps his arms around Carlos. Tk leans in and kisses Carlos softly, smiling against his lips.

“I love you,” Tk said as he placed his hand against Carlos’ neck.
“I love you,” Carlos said as he looked into TKs eyes. “More than anything,” he said.
“Now I was going to propose on our last day” Tk smiled.
“Oh really?” Carlos asked.
“Yea,” TK said as he pulled out a ring from his pocket.
“AW babe” Carlos smiled.
“Can I say how I would propose?” Tk looked at Carlos.
“Of course” Carlos nodded and took a step back from Tk.
“I never thought I would find someone after Alex, my heart was torn apart. Moving here and finding you was one of the best things in my life. I know I have plenty of flaws and sometimes fight what we have. But all I was doing was denying the fact that I’ve never been in love with someone as much as I love you. You are my rock, my everything. Baby, will you marry me?” TK asks as he gets down on one knee.
“Babe” Carlos looked at TK. “Yes a million times yes,” Carlos said.

TK smiles and places the ring onto Carlos’s hand before standing up. Embracing Carlos in his arms as Carlos wraps his arms around Tk. They finished walking around Paris and headed back to their hotel room. Placing the do not disrupt on the door, they made it a night they wouldn’t forget. Within a few days, they were back on a plane, heading back to Texas. Carlos called Owen before they landed to let him know that TK said yes. Once they got off the plane and grabbed their bags. The 126 family was there with signs congratulating the happy couple.

“There they are,” Marjan said.
“CONGRATS GUYS,” Mateo yelled.
“Welcome home,” Owen said as he hugged Tk and then Carlos.
“Thanks, guys” TK smiled.
“Congratulations little bro” Judd said as he hugged TK.
“And you said things would never be the same,” Nancy said as she hugged Carlos.
“Well everything is a surprise,” Carlos smiled. “Tk also proposed to me,” Carlos said.
“Double engagement,” Paul said.
“Congrats guys, we have food prepared at your apartment,” Nancy said.
“Nice” Tk nodded. “I’m starving,” Tk added.
“Come on babe,” Carlos said as he grabbed Tks hand.

They went back to Tk and Carlos’ house and had one of their 126 hangouts. The 126 had already decorated and had a cake, flowers, and everything you could imagine.

“Wait, how did you guys get in here to do this?” Tk asked.
“Owen has a key and so does Nancy,” Carlos said.
“Oh ok,” Tk nodded.

They played games and just hung out, just celebrating Tk and Carlos. The party was cut short early because Tk and Carlos were both jet-lagged, they said their goodbyes as everyone left. Tk sat on the couch, laying his head back and closing his eyes.

“Everything ok babe?” Carlos asked as he sat next to TK.
“Yea” Tk nodded.
“Are you sure?” Carlos asked.
“Yes babe just tired,” TK admitted.
“Ok well go lay down and I’m going to clean up and then ill be in there with you,” Carlos said.
“Just leave it and come with me now,” TK said as he stood up, grabbing Carlos’s hand.
“I want to clean up,” Carlos said.
“Please” TK pouted.
“Ok fine,” Carlos said as he pulled Tk to the bedroom.

Once they both laid on the bed they were fast asleep. Both were happy in each other’s arms, knowing that they would spend forever with each other.
