“You say that now,” Ric chuckled and Ben couldn’t stop a smile from forming on his face. Everything had changed after he’d arrived in Mystic Falls and seeing Jenna and Ric together now and so in love was enough to help him see what he wanted his future with Jed to be like. Things were a little different for them since soon enough Jed would be a hybrid and then neither of them would get any older but that didn’t mean that they couldn’t still have a life together like this full of love and laughter. Ben had never thought that he would get to have this kind of life but now he had the chance and he knew that he wanted to make the most of it. “Trust me, just the thought of asking him scares me but I know it’s something I want to do,” Ben admitted. He hadn’t been with anyone since Ashur but he was certain that he had found the guy that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with in Jed so it felt right to ask Jed to marry him, he just hoped that Jed wouldn’t think that it was too soon. It was something that they had talked about before and Jed had said that it was something that he wanted too but knowing that and getting engaged were two very different things. Ben didn’t doubt the love that they had though and even if Jed wanted to wait then Ben knew that he would respect it. He knew that he could have just gone ahead and asked Jed but it wouldn’t have felt right. It was traditional to ask a partner’s parents first and even though they had done things their own way ever since they met, that tradition at least was one that he had wanted to honour. Lifting his glass to his lips, Ben took a sip before lowering his glass. “It really is. Here’s hoping we’ll be having another celebration soon.” Ben knew what he hoped Jed’s answer would be but only time would tell. As Jenna asked when he was planning on asking Jed, Ben’s expression turned thoughtful for a moment. “I’m not sure yet. I’ve thought about asking him before he becomes a hybrid but there’s so much to do before that and I want to find the perfect time,” he admitted as he took another sip of his champagne. “I promise you won’t have to keep it a secret from him for too long though,” he added, knowing that it wouldn’t be fair to expect them to do that.
