I Propose A Crossword

(We have been doing crossword puzzles together even before we started dating. We are on our one-year anniversary trip as boyfriend and girlfriend, sitting on the beach drinking mimosas and doing the crossword puzzle.)

Boyfriend: “Why don’t we try the other crossword puzzle?”

Me: “Really? It’s Saturday. The New York Times one will be hard. We’ll probably only get one!”

(As I was saying this, I turn to the puzzle and saw that there was already writing on it. As I focused, I saw that it said, “WILL YOU MARRY ME?” Of course, I said yes!)
