Cap and I had been going together for over a year. It took a while for my daughter to get used to him, and I did not want to live together. But I was all but begging him to ask me. So he knew I would never say no.
One evening he asked me to come and hear the new set. Sometimes I would listen to his band play, but it was always my idea to go. So when he asked me to please come I knew something was up.
One of the last numbers they did was "Wonderful Tonight" by Eric Clapton, which I thought was really strange because they rarely did covers. And Cap sang, which he rarely did even though he has a fantastic voice (he's lazy that way and I hope he read this! LOL). He was looking right at me when he sang it and I knew it was coming straight from his heart. Then the last line he changed and he sang will I marry him. I cried like a baby and the crowd was crazy. I don't remember anything else except for the ring. I cried every bit of makeup off. I know I was a basket case, but I was never so happy before in my life.
