For a time, Neil had been the only one to know Marcus was considering any of this, but now that he's come to a decision, there is one person in particular he needs to tell. Besides Dan, of course.
He goes to meet up with Kat for dinner with the ring in his pocket so he can show it to her. He's a little nervous about it, not the proposal itself, but the ring and he isn't entirely sure why. It feels like the right ring, he'd spent a lot of time trying to work it out and had been halfway through a text to Kat asking for her help when he'd found it. It had been entirely by chance, walking past the jewelry store with the rings in the window, but it had immediately drawn him. It's the right ring. It's Dan's ring.
But he's still nervous about it.
Even now, waiting outside the restaurant for Kat, he keeps putting his hand in his pocket to feel the ring box. He's pacing, moving back and forth across the sidewalk and touching the box before he looks down the road and sees Kat heading toward him. With a smile, he pulls his hand from his pocket so he can wave to her, then goes to meet her.
