[ He's nervous in ways that are hard to explain. It's not that he hasn't been nervous before. Usually he's only nervous before competition, interviews, meetings - things like that. He's never been nervous in his personal life. He wasn't with Isabella, even when he proposed to her.
It's like - excited nervous, if he were to put words on it. He pats his pocket to make sure the main event is in place and glances around the entrance of the house and the kitchen, where he still has a few things finishing up for the other.
The cake was a single-tier cake, chocolate through and through. It was sitting neatly on the counter - Happy Birthday Makoto written by him. For dinner - he made green curry with rice and picked up some meat buns at a nearby bakery. It's not too much, he thinks, but he's never really sure what crosses a line.
He tried to do...not as much as he'd normally do.
Besides, he thinks doing his typical level of extra plus proposing might be...too much? He's trying, at least. He listened. He doesn't think the other has an idea that he's doing this - he hopes not, at least. He had gotten the rings from that shop over a month ago and tucked them away.
When Makoto gets to the kitchen, he'll find JJ stirring the curry, making sure it doesn't burn as it simmers. ]

It's almost ready.
[ A pleased hum. ]
