Exactly. Ennis is a private man, and Ellery keeps repeating it. Perhaps they could have a nice private ceremony at the patio, with the humming birds as the only witnesses. Ennis will probably like that.

Holy Christ woman, I,ve got tears in my eyes already thinking of that now lol. I think thats lovely...*sniff*

I have a feeling that Ellery has no problem with public displays of affection etc but restrains himself for Ennis' peace of mind. Although how even Ennis can restrain himself even in public having Ellery within grabbing distance is beyond me. I mean just look at him!

Well, Ellery has no problems kissing Ennis hello or goodbye in front of Wes or Alma, Jr.  However, he doesn't like public displays of affection either. He told it to Simon.  When Ellery receives Ennis's token, he'll probably cry a river, and Ennis is going to blush. So, it'll probably be an uncomfortable situation for both of them if they make the engagement ceremony somthing public or semi public. Perhaps, later on in their lives when Ennis is finally used to his life with a man, they might be able to do something in front of their friends. An anniversary celebration or somthing like that. But now is too soon, IMO.

Jo, thanx for the pic! He's so dreamy *sighs*

This is slightly OT but in case anyone hasn't discovered it...over on the "Anything Goes" board is a thread called Affection: Exclusively Devoted to Male Images. Some pretty nice pics over there. There is one of two guys sleeping that I was swooning over a bit this morning. So, I recommend you give it a gander, if you are interested. Roland posts a new pic every day.

I'd actually prefer it to be just the two of them......

MM I completly see your point there. If he was in grabbing distance of me I think I,d be arrested!! I,m with you. I have no idea how Ennis restrains himself. I know June wouldnt either. Would you?

[Bigheart]

Well he doesnt have to get weepy and romantic, althought that would be nice lol. They save that for when they have the mushy romantic cute talks after sex lol. We like that btw Louise lol. Oh well, we shall see what our author decides. Whatever happens, I,m sure we,ll have tears in our eyes lol. I know I will, and I just know June will, wont you?   

OH definitely Souxi

Yeah thinking about it, your right hun. I mean, if they feel all emotional afterwards, they,ll probably feel like getting fancy, and they couldnt do that with Wes and Enda around. *SIGH*

Yes, Wes and Edna, this would be “the maximally public” ceremony Ennis could stand   , already he got comfy with her, asking for opinion and advices about Ellery and their relationship.
I wish they would do it front of them or at least let them know during super and have a toast maybe

That is such a lovely idea, I like that a lot.  Ennis has a thing about those birds, doesn't he? 

The patio is a perfect place for the ceremony - maybe after their lovely committment ceremony and exchanges of love tokens, they can take a trip to France.
