Twilight sparkled above the trees, the stars small glowing dots. The clone army had gathered on a jungle planet that Chopper had no clue what the name was, maybe he should have been paying closer attention. Although, his mind was on other matters. A small circular object was beginning to burn a hole in his pocket, a similar effect to that of the droid fingers in the other.
The trees towered over any man easily, strong enough to support the weight of probably the mightiest creature. The bush was thick, and stood about clone height with thorns that threatened to slice you to bits if walked through.
It was the perfect place, and definitely the only chance the clone woudl have. The others had made camp for the evening, tiny little fires dotting in the bush, marking each group of tents.
Chopper was on duty, and what luck then to have Kayla with him as well. They were to survey the camp, protecting it from any creatures that got too curious for their own good.
Currently, Chopper was sitting in a tree. Glancing down the small path, he noticed Kayla walking toward his direction. It was rediculous how jittery he was, definitely a feeling he had never experienced before. It was a mixture of fear and excitement, and he didn't really know what to think of it.
"General Solo!" He said, swinging upside down from the tree branch over the path. He blinked, gathering his bearings as he saw her from a different point of view. He had to put a hand to the top of his head to prevent his helmet from falling off.

"Hey, Chopper," Kayla said smiling as she made her way over towards him. "What's up?" She asked as she looked at him. "Did you blow up another droid and get whacked in the head again?" She asked sarcastically as she rolled her eyes. "I can sense that you are on edge."

The trooper was immediately thrown off by her presence. He rubbed his hands together nervously. On edge? She had no idea. What he was doing was strickly against protocol, in fact it was SO against it they didn't worry about even mentioning it. He swallowed a lump beginning to form in his throat.
"Well... I... " He swallowed again, heartbeat beginning to pick up. "Tomorrow's going to be a big day... a big battle, and well..." He started blurting out in a rush, trying to focus on one topic but instead failed miserably and it ended all being a mush.
"No one I have ever met ever has ever done this before, and I've just observed natives on other planets. But I know that it is always possible for one of us to get injured in battle, or separated or even worse. We only live once and Kayla, I'd like to spend it with you. I know that I'm taking a big risk, and yours would probably be even greater but I don't think I can die knowing I didn't do it..."
He suddenly blurted out.
"Kayla Solo, will you marry me?!"

Kayla blinked and stood there in complete shock. She knew Chopper was being sincere. She loved him and knew that he was right. Kayla took a deep breath. "Oh, Chopper," she said as she as she took his helmet off so she could look him in the eyes. "Yes," she said smiling. "I'll marry you," she said breathlessly.

Chopper had been holding his breath the whole time. He was beginning to feel the burning sensation in his lungs, let alone in his face as the blood rushed to it. He was still hanging upside down, and gravity works as gravity does. His heart pounding in his ears, he squinted as the helmet was taken off.
He blinked at her face, struggling to keep his emotions at bay. He was so happy, so excited, yet terrified all at once. He tried to think of something to say, but it came out as a small giggle and a huge smile.
"I.... hee... I- OH!" He suddenly remembered what had convinced him to do it in the first place. He reached into his pocket and brought out a gold ring with several gems in the middle. The one in the middle had reminded him of her eyes, while the two on either side sparkled like stars.
Swallowing, he held it between his first finger and thumb of his right hand and presented it to her.
"You don't have to wear it, because it might raise suspition, I dunno... but it's for you..."

Kayla smiled at Chopper. She was happy that he was happy. He made her happy and she made him happy. "Oh, Chopper,"she said as she watched him pull out the ring and let him slip it on her finger. "To hell with suspiusion," she said snickering as she wrapped her arms Chopper's neck and kissed him on the lips passionately. "I love the ring and I love you so much," she added as she smirked.

Chopper watched her slide the ring on and felt an explosion from his chest. It fluttered like a caged bird, and there was no way of keeping it contained. He was happy, so happy. He managed to give a smile before she kissed him.
Slightly lightheaded, and relieved he temporarily forgat he was upside down. He slipped a few inches with a yelp in surprise.
"As much as I'm loving the moment, I'm still in a tree."
'Personally, I think she should join me...' He thought, deciding it was best to keep it to himself. He couldn't hide the smirk that danced across his face.

Kayla smirked. "Well then let me join you up in the tree," she said laughing as she let him sit up and she climbed up into the treee. She sat beside him and she rested her head against his chest.
"What possessed you to propose upside-down in a tree?" She asked giggling as she kissed Chopper on the cheek.

Chopper lifted himself back up into the tree, having to put a hand to his head as the blood rushed back toward his body. Blinking and steadying his focus, he settled against the trunk and let Kayla lay on his chest. Wrapping his arms around her, he sighed happily.
"Well... we're supposed to be on watch.... you never know when seppies might step in, so I thought I would before we started. I just so happened to be in a tree." He hugged her tight. "You gotta problem with trees?" He said flatly, a hint of humour and sarcasm shining through.

"No, smart-ass," Kayla said as she lightly smacked him playfully on his chest armor. "I didn't say I have a problem with trees. I found it amusing." She put his helmet on another limb and she nuzzled his neck with her nose. "This has been one interesting day," she mused as she blinked. "Surprised the hell out of me that's for damn sure," she added with a smirk.

"Just keepin' you on your toes." Chopper chuckled. He was glad that she had found his 'technique' interesting, or atleast amusing. She can officially say that when he had proposed formally, it had been definitely interesting. Grinning, he watched her stack his helmet before settlign his chin ontop of her head. He was definitely comfortable, and didn't really wanna get up. Chopper just wished to stay like this for a long time.

"That you do keep me on my toes," Kayla said as she smiled at Chopper and let him rest his head on her head. She reached for his hand and held it as she looked down at her ring. "I'm still in shock," she admitted grinning happily. "I'm glad that I did stay onboard that ship after all when we first met," she added snickering.
They had been through a lot together over the past few months. Even if Kayla had tactics for nearly killing herself, but they managed.
She pulled put a pair of electro-binoculars and looked through them and didn't see anything and she sighed softly. "It's nice out here," she said. "Those clankers won't know what hit them once we blow that outpost to bits," she said snickering as she nestled herself in Chopper's arms and watched the sun set as she laced her fingers inbetween his. "Now since you ain't hanging upside down anymore I can do this," she said as she pulled her head out from under Chopper's and captured his lips in a passionate kiss as the sun set as she smirked kissing him. After a bit, Kayla pulled back and put her other hand on Chopper's cheek and smiled. "And as much as I love surprises as much as the next person," she mused. "Commander Cody and Captain Rex are suppose to be coming by tomorrow to inspect the outpost," she added.
(OOC: What planet are we even on anyway?))

((OOC: Nodda clue!  Whoo hoo!)) Chopper couldn't help but smile as he gently squeezed her hand. He was glad that he had managed to surprise her, it made it all the better. The ring was beautiful, and it made his chest feel tight to know she was happy. He tried; tried hard. "I'm glad I didn't report you as an intruder." He added along with her comment with a small chuckle. He followed her gaze, mentally agreeing that it was nice. Then again, it was usualy calm before the storm and tomorrow was supposed to be a huge day. THey had a big battle a head of them, and it was going to be interesting. He happily kissed her back in responce, never wanting the moment to end. "Captain Rex? Commander Cody? Really? Ugh." It was always nice to have someone in charge around here, but they were the pair that had confiscated his fingers in the first place. They'ld be keeping an eye on him. Besides, the pair were like hawks; eyes peeled for every inperfection. Chopper had to play it safe around Kayla. "That's a surprise alright." He said dryly. |

Kayla chuckled at Chopper’s response about Commander Cody and Captain Rex. ”If you want to hide your droid fingers, you can stuff them in my backpack,” she said as she kissed him back.
”General Solo, respond,” said Captain Rex over her comlink.
”General Solo here, Rex,” she said.
”Commander Cody and I won’t be making an inspection,”[/i][/color] Rex said. ”We’ve been reassigned to a new location for inspection.”
”All right thanks for informing me,” she said as she ended communication. ”Glad they ain’t coming,” she mused as she smirked at Chopper. ”I get you all to myself before hell breaks loose tomorrow.” She paused for a moment. ”I am really happy to say the least,” she mused as she snuggled in Chopper’s arms.

Chopper relaxed slightly, not only knowing that he didn't have to constantly watch his actions around the general, but he could keep his fingers. In slightly better spirits, he made himself comfortable. He leaned over to whisper in her ear.
"And arn't I glad of it. Is it greedy to say that I don't have to share with the officers?" He mused with a tint of humor in his voice, hugging her close.
