"Oh, thank the Angel," she breathes out, half laughing in relief. The last thing she wanted was to ruin the night they've been having by making things awful. She looks at his undone shoelace, and she'd feel a little embarrassed if not for the fact that Isabelle refuses to be embarrassed about anything.
This will be something that Alec teases her about mercilessly if she tells him. She's pretty sure that once Billy gets over the shock of it he's probably going to make fun of her too, but she doesn't mind that much. She lets him tie his shoelace, and then she tugs him back to his feet again.
"Okay, good," she says, kissing him quickly again. "Not falling on your face is good too, but maybe give a girl a warning before you get down on one knee." She raises an eyebrow at him, a bemused smile on her lips. "On one knee on our anniversary, where we first met." She's pretty sure she's not the only one who would have jumped to that kind of conclusion, given when and where they are.
