Blizz watched as Lori wrote whatever it was she was writing on the counter, his ears parting and his eyebrow raised. Lori had done some odd things while the two of them had been together, most of them only odd because of Blizz's naivety, but this one seemed to be odd given any circumstances. Things only got odder after he took the note from Lori's hand, and it was a few minutes before Blizz could even bring himself to read what was on the note, his eye still focused on the stairs that Lori had rushed up so quickly.
Of course, when he did read the note, it felt like his heart had started beating harder than it had been. Maybe he'd read it wrong, but rereading the note only made his heart beat even harder. "M-mary...me?" Blizz spoke to the empty bar, the note falling out of his slack hands and gently falling towards the ground below.
For some reason, Blizz couldn't help but to think that this must've been the happiest moment of his life. Ears twitching with glee, he jumped up and down a few times, a large goofy smile plastered on his face. There'd been plenty of great moments in this bar, and each time they happened Blizz couldn't help but think that things just couldn't get any better, but this time, things were different. There really couldn't be a time that would ever make him happier than this one, and he new that for a fact.
Around his fifth jump, Blizz remembered something that instantly brought his happiness down a few levels. Wait a second...Iwas the one that supposed to propose to Lori! Blizz's heart beat slowed down as he remembered just how things were supposed to work, and for a few seconds, things seemed their bleakest. But...well, he didn't have much time, but he'd be damned if he was going to let Lori down. Grabbing the pad and pen that Lori had been using only minutes earlier, Blizz scribbled down a few words and quickly tore the page off, rushing up the stairs two at a time to get to Lori's room.
It hurt Blizz to think that he'd have to leave Lori to sleep alone for the night. A lot, actually; as he saw her there, curled up in a ball, he almost couldn't muster the strength to go through with his plan. But this was something he had to do though, for the both of them, just as Lori had said. With a small smile Blizz gently placed the note he'd written onto the bed next to Lori, kissing her forehead before leaving the room and exiting the bar, quickly heading out into the city beyond.

Meanwhile, in Lori's room, a small breeze blew in from under the closed door, it's origin unknown. As this wind moved gently about the room, it caught the note that Blizz had written in it's grasp, sending it dancing about. Within seconds, the note had danced all the way over to the nearby open window, and continued to flutter out into the night air. As it gently descended towards the ground below, the words scribbled on the note gleamed in the moonlight. They read:
Lori, if I'm not back by the morning, please, wait up for me. I have something I really need to show you, and I think you'll like it. I love you with all my heart, and I can't wait to talk to you tomorrow. Blizz.
