Steve wasn't at all surprised by the tears. He'd been fully expecting them at some point, had even figured it would be about the time he offered the ring. Really, he shouldn't have been surprised by her response, either, but he couldn't help the way his jaw dropped a little, more surprised at her sheer audacity.
"Oh, I see how it is." He looked down for just a second - before surging forward and up, wrapping his arms around Rogue's thighs so when he was standing, she was slung over his shoulder. "Looks like it's caveman rules, then," he told her, moving over to the couch, leaning over enough that she didn't have far to fall, then immediately flopped on top of her - being careful not to squish her, just... hold her in place. He reached for her hand, the ring out of the box and held in his other.
"This ring is going on your finger, and that's that!" he teasingly threatened.
