With his daughter less than a month away from being a year old, Mackenzie Alexander knew that that the time was right. He needed to do this or else he was never going to. He had planned to do it right after his daughter was born, but for some reason, he just became super nervous about it all and chickened out. Now though, Mackenzie knew that he just needed to man up and deal with his nervousness and just go ahead with it all. When the male had woken up that morning, all thanks to his peanut of a daughter, he told his girlfriend, Onyx, that he would get the baby and that she should sleep in a bit longer. When the male got up and got his daughter, he fed her, bathed and dressed her, then brought her down to the kitchen so that he would be able to get breakfast for himself. With a bowl of cereal for himself, Mackenzie then brought Jasmine and himself out to the back deck and placed her on his lap when he sat down at the patio table. Fascinated with his Fruity Pebbles, Mackenzie eventually let Jasmine try a few when they got a little soggy. The last thing that he needed was for Jasmine to choke. When Mackenzie and Jasmine finished the male's bowl of cereal, Mac sat back in his chair and held his daughter up in his arms so that she was standing with her feet on his legs. "We're going to have to get you up and moving around," he said. "Then we both can drive your mom crazy," he said, a cheeky grin on his face. "I'm sure she's going to love that," he said.
outfit: www.polyvore.com/cgi/set?id=51650888 ooc: if onyx comes out onto the back deck, jasmine's back would be towards her. she could see that the onesie is a new one, but i have a plan for her to see the front of it. (mac is eventually going to pass the little one off to onyx.)

Having a kid meant having your very own human alarm clock. They ran on their own time and you ran on their time too. Onyx's sleeping schedule was starting to get better with Jasmine getting older. The baby took longer and less reckless naps which gave Onyx some time to catch up on her own sleep too. Today was no different. The sun was peeking through the window when Jasmine was beckoning for attention in her room. Luckily for the fatigued mother, her boyfriend and baby daddy offered to take care of their princess while she slept. She didn't hesitate to go back to sleep. Fast forward a few hours later and Onyx was feeling well-rested. The young mother rolled out of her bed and into the bathroom. Her hair was sticking up at all these different ends and her top was rolling off her shoulders. She laughed at herself before freshening up and getting dressed.
Onyx slipped into a pair of short shorts and one of Mackenzie's shirts before skipping down the steps into her kitchen. She could tell that her boyfriend had been through here. There was an unguarded box of Fruity Pebbles on the counter with a gallon of milk next to it. Onyx smiled and playfully rolled her eyes as she cleaned up a bit. She made herself a bagel and glanced around the kitchen. Other than the cereal left behind, there was nothing else out of place. Where could her beau and baby have gone? Onyx finished off her bagel and licked the cream cheese off her fingers before detecting Mackenzie's voice. She dashed through the kitchen over to the back door where she saw her tall boyfriend bent over with their baby. Onyx grinned and opened the door, stepping into the sunlight. "Who's going to love what?"

While Mackenzie sat out on the back deck with his daughter, he occasionally wondered where his girlfriend was. She normally didn't sleep in this late, so he was curious as to whether she was already up and just moving around or if she just really needed the sleep or something. Though, his thoughts were soon answered when he heard the voice of his girlfriend ring in his ears. "Well, good morning, sleepy head," he said, looking towards the back door of which she had just walked out of. "I was just telling Jazz that I had to get her up and walking around so that we both could drive you crazy," he said with a cheeky grin. As soon as the tiny baby girl that he had been holding onto had caught sight of her mother, Mackenzie grinned. He was truly amazed at how much his daughter loved both of her parents so much; as well as amazed as how much they had loved their daughter just the same. "Hey, can you take her for a minute. I want to go grab something upstairs," the male said, standing up and waiting for Onyx to walk over and take the chair that he had just been sitting in. Once she had walked over, Mackenzie handed an almost one year old Jasmine off to his girlfriend and went inside. The male knew that it was only a matter of time now before Onyx had actually looked at what their daughter was wearing. Once the male was inside, he went upstairs to the bedroom he and Onyx shared and went over to his side of the bed and pulled a ring box out from underneath his side of the bed. As soon as he had it in his hand, the male went down to the kitchen and looked out of the window and waited to see the reaction that Onyx would have when she read their daughter's shirt. Mackenzie wasn't going to go back outside until she had seen it, otherwise, it wouldn't have made much sense if he had just randomly gone outside and got down on one knee.

A yawn passed Onyx's lips as she moved through the kitchen. She wasn't sure why she was awake. Technically if she was really quiet and stealthy, she'd be able to sneak back upstairs and go back to sleep. Her body signaled that she was tired but her mind wasn't and its only focus was Mackenzie and Jasmine. Onyx leaned against the door handle and grinned. "Good morning to you too," she uttered with another yawn. She was a sleepy head. Since having Jasmine, sleep had become Onyx's favorite hobby. If she had any time at all to herself, no matter how little, she took a nap. Sleep was an escape into a state where she could relax. As much as she loved her life, she needed a break from it sometimes.
Onyx stepped away from the door and walked towards the two. "Oh, really, now? You two don't even need to be awake to drive me crazy," she said with a laugh. Onyx sat beside her boyfriend in the lawn chair next to his and kicked her feet up. "Yeah, sure." She accepted their daughter as Mackenzie rushed upstairs. Onyx laughed to herself as she lifted her daughter. "Your daddy is a weird one." The mother nuzzled her face close to her daughters before noticing the new onesie she had been wearing. "Huh, this is new..." Onyx looked at her daughter and her jaw dropped. She quickly bolted out of her chair with tears creeping out of the corner of her eyes. "M-Mackenzie!"

Looking out the window, it wasn't too long before Mackenzie saw Onyx react to the shirt that their daughter was wearing. And as soon as Onyx had reacted to the shirt, the male's facial expression when from an anxious grin to a huge smile. Stepping back from the window and walking to the back door, Mackenzie opened it and walked through the threshold and over to his girlfriend. As she stuttered his name, Mackenzie smiled, put his hand in his pocket and grabbed the ring box, and then got down on one knee. "Onyx, I know how we got together wasn't exactly the way it should have gone, but it happened and I wouldn't ever take that day back. We have a beautiful daughter together and I wouldn't change that for the world. We've been through a lot of ups and downs and we've made it just fine. I can't imagine spending the rest of my life with anyone else and without you. You're an amazing person, mother, and girlfriend and I wouldn't change anything about you in that sense. The only thing I do want to change is your last name," the male spoke, taking a deep breath before making it official. "Onyx Ariel Collins, will you marry me?" the male asked, opening the ring box finally to reveal a purple diamond ring. It was official. Mackenzie had finally asked Onyx to marry him after chickening out for a little over a year. He had planned to propose multiple times in the entire first year of his daughter's life, but for some reason, the male had gotten scared and ended up no proposing. Until now, of course.

Was this actually happening? Was she really about to become engaged? Was she really going to be married? Onyx wanted to shout at the top of her lungs how much she loved Mackenzie and how she would gladly spend the rest of her life with him but instead, she just cried. She could only watch him as he got on one knee and professed his love to her. Jasmine could only watch with wide, curious eyes. Once Mackenzie asked the official question, Onyx wiped the tears that fell and took in a deep, shaky breathe. "Mackenzie, if you would have told me that you'd be proposing to me in front of our one year old daughter two years ago, I probably would have laughed in your face," Onyx began with a smile. "Like... God, Mackenzie, I can't even form words right now. I love you so much and I'm so glad that this happened, all of this. I love you and Jasmine and am so thankful that this is our life and that it's together..." Onyx stopped briefly to sniff and dab at her eyes. Jasmine looked at her mother and hit her cheek as if telling her mother to get on with it and accept her daddy's proposal. Onyx smiled and giggled. "Don't worry, Jazzy, I'm hurrying up." The baby looked pleased with herself and continued to watch. "Well, what I guess I'm trying to say is: Mackenzie Kendall Alexander, yes, I will marry you." Onyx didn't bother wiping the tears that fell as she bent over and kissed her boyfriend fiancé.

As Mackenzie stayed knelt to the ground, he eventually heard the female accept his proposal. As soon as he heard the words come out of her mouth, Mackenzie couldn't help but let a big grin spread across his face. Taking the ring out of the small velvet box, Mackenzie took Onyx's left hand in his own and slipped the purple diamond ring onto her fourth finger. Then standing up, Mackenzie took hold of their daughter and leaned down to kiss his new fiance. "Trust me, if anyone would have told me that I'd be getting down on one knee before I was thirty, I'd have laughed in their face," the blonde male spoke. "I think that we should go out and celebrate tonight. I was banking on you saying yes, so I sort of made dinner reservations for later tonight," the male said. "Don't hate me," he said to his baby momma. "If you don't want to go out, I'll understand. I'll just call the restaurant and tell them to give the table to someone else," Mackenzie spoke.
Taking his eyes off of Onyx for a moment, Mackenzie turned his head and looked down at his daughter in his arms. She had grabbed his shirt and pulled, but he had a feeling that she had been searching for his hair to pull instead. "Hey now, no beating up daddy," he said, a bright smile on his face. "You just have to say drums and you can go beat them up," the proud father of one spoke.

In Onyx's heart, she knew this was the right thing to do. Mackenzie and Onyx truly loved each other and the fact that they had a child played no part in this engagement. Her parents disapproved of Mackenzie back when they were friends and first starting out in Romantic Him & The Mars and they cut all ties when she announced her pregnancy so she had no idea what they'd do if she told them they were getting married. It's not like they can "disown" her because she doesn't live in their house anymore and she won't even share the same last name. Onyx just wished her parents would turn over a new leaf and accept Mackenzie. She was their only child. You'd think parents of an only child would welcome their son-in-law and granddaughter with open arms, but, no, not Onyx's parents. It was her personal mission to get her parents to change their minds and opinions about Jasmine, Mackenzie, and Onyx's new life before the wedding.
"And if someone told me that I'd be marrying my best friend, I would have to agree," she said. But they were no longer just best friends. They were engaged, parents, and in love. "I'd love to go out. We just need to find a babysitter for Jasmine unless you reserved a table for three." Onyx watched her daughter and fiancé interact with a large smile on her face. You could tell they were daughter and father - so adorable and in sync with their personalities. Onyx leaned over and kissed Jasmine's cheek before kissing Mackenzie's lips. "Fine, be a daddy's girl and play drums. But our next baby is playing guitar, alright?" She said with a laugh.

With Jasmine in his arms and Onyx by his side, Mackenzie knew that his life would always be fulfilled. He had truly made a name and a life for himself and he was most certainly thrilled with the decisions that he had made to get himself to said point. If he had made any other decisions and had gone in any other direction with his life, Mackenzie didn't know how he would have ended up. He was thrilled to have such a beautiful fiance and a gorgeous daughter that would hopefully grow up and take after her mother's good looks. "It looks as if we're both marrying our best friend," the male said. "And yeah, there's room for three," Mackenzie added quickly. "So, we just have to let the afternoon wilt away and then get ready for dinner. It's sort of a higher end restaurant, so we're going to have to really get dressed up, so I don't know if you want to go out shopping or anything," the male spoke. "I'm sure that you have something really nice that I'm going to want to take off of you the moment I see you walk out in it, but I don't know about the little one," the male spoke. "She seems to grow so fast these days, nothing fits her right anymore," Mackenzie added. "We struggle after bath time to try and find a pair of pajamas that fit her properly."

Onyx curled into Mackenzie's side, absorbing his warmth and leaning into his tall stature. They were honestly the poster couple for opposites attracting. Mackenzie was tall, blue-eyed and blonde with an outgoing personality who was a complete goofball and ex-manwhore. Onyx was a short, petite, dark-haired girl with brown eyes who was more motherly towards people now with a slight shy side to her. And now look at them. They were parents, best friends, and now going to become husband and wife. Onyx wouldn't have asked for it any other way. If she could pick anyone to spend the rest of her life with, it would be Mackenzie. "Yeah. Best friend turned love of our lives. But I wouldn't have it any other way." Onyx grinned and kissed Mackenzie's cheek. She poked her babbling, smiling daughter. She would need to take Jasmine dress shopping and maybe give her a haircut as well. Onyx would probably need a new 'do and shed some more baby weight to fit into a stunning dress.
"Mhm, I like the idea of a lazy afternoon into a fun night." Onyx licked her bottom lip and rolled her eyes upward in thought. Did she have anything suitable to wear out in a higher-end restaurant? She hasn't worn anything really "nice" since having Jasmine. But she was sure she'd be able to find something to wear. Onyx arose of her tippy-toes and pressed her lips to Mackenzie's ear. "Maybe if we get a baby-sitter for Jasmine, you can rip whatever you want off of me later tonight," she whispered. She dropped down to the balls of her feet with a cute smirk on her face before reaching for Jasmine. "Yeah, our little princess has gotten so big. She's so beautiful and this means she can get a whole bunch of new dresses," Onyx said with a grin and kissed Jazzy's cheek.
