Matt and I have been going strong for a few days now. Every day with him is a little piece of heaven. He treats me like a princess. Matthew knows just how to make me smile. We've spent the last few days cuddling in front of the fire and doing sweet little things together. It was everything I've ever wanted.
It was the night before Valentine's day, and Matthew and I were laying in his living room being lazy. There was an empty box of pizza on the floor, and Matt was holding me in his arms. I was dozing off when I felt his lips on my cheek. I open my eyes and he's smirking at me.
"Yes Espinosa?'
"I was wondering if I could take you out tomorrow." He looks so nervous, it's adorable.
"Yeah of course baby." His eyes light up and I peck his cheek.
"It's a surprise but I swear you'll love it." I smile and he wraps his arms back around my waist. He lays his head in the crook of my neck and I feel his warm breath hit my skin. I close my eyes and drift off into a deep sleep.

I hear screaming coming from the living room. I rush out of the bathroom and see a man holding a gun up to Matts head.
"Matthew!!" He looks at me, a look of panic resides on his face.
"Kat run." The man looks at me, and presses the barrel of the gun harder onto Matts temple. He starts to walk towards me, and I back up until my back touches the cold wall. I try to scream but he threatens to shoot him. The tears are flowing down my cheeks.
"KAT! You have to get out of here!" I turn to run, and that's when he pulls the trigger.
---
I bolt awake covered in sweat, with tears falling down my cheeks. Matts sitting next to me, and he looks worried.
"Kat baby are you okay? Tell me whats wrong." He wraps his arms around me and holds me close to him.
"I-I had a nightmare and y-you were h-held at gunpoint, and you told me to run b-but the man s-shot you." The tears are streaming down my cheeks and Matt uses his thumbs to wipe them away.
"It's okay, I'm here, you're safe." He kisses my forehead, and I curl back up in his arms.
"Just close your eyes, and try to fall back asleep. I love you." I smile and shut my eyes.
"I love you too."

I wake up a few hours later to the sun shining in through the window and onto my face. I sit up and notice Matt isn't next to me. I stand up and walk into his kitchen, and see a box of chocolates on the counter. Next to them is a note.
My dearest Kat,
I have gone out to plan some things for our special day today. Go down to your apartment, and get ready. I will pick you up in about an hour. I love you and I hope you like your chocolates! Happy Valentines Day, Love Matthew.
I smile and head downstairs heading into the bathroom to get ready. I shower and get dressed, sitting in my living room to wait for Matt.
---
About an hour later I hear a knock on my door. I rush over and pull it open, seeing Matthew standing there with a teddy bear.
"Aww Matthew!" He hands it to me and I stand on my tiptoes to give him a kiss. His arms wrap aound my waist and mine entangle themselves in his hair. It feels magical. He pulls away and I grab his hand as we make our way down the stairs.
We get inside his car and he pulls onto the street, taking us on our way to his secret location.
---
We drive for about an hour until we arrive at a zoo. I get out of the car, a huge smile on my face.
"THE ZOO!?! How did you know this is my favorite place on earth??" He laughs and we walk to the entrance.
"Because I'm the best boyfriend in the world." I chuckle.
"I will be the judge of that." I smirk as we walk through the gates.
We spend the day walking around looking at all of the animals. Our hands are intertwined and smiles stay on our faces all day. Matt and I continue to walk around until I spot the gift shop. I pull his arm inside. We look around and I see a cute Snow globe that I really want.
"Babe we have to go. I have some more surprises in store." He sees me staring at the Snow globe and smiles at me.
"Kat, I'll meet you in the car." I get inside and watch for Matt. I finally see him running to the car. He jumps inside and hands me a bag. I open it and I gasp.
"You didn't!" I smile.
"Oh but I did." He winks at me, and pulls out of the parking lot.
---
We drive back to the house and he tells me to go get dressed up. I follow his requests and put on a short red dress and some heels. I come back downstairs and see a limo waiting for me. I get inside and it takes me to a gorgeous restaurant. I thank the driver and head inside. The doors are opened up for me and I see Matt standing there in a Tuxedo. He has a dozen roses in his hands and a huge smile on his face.
"Oh my god Kat you look absolutely stunning." I smile and follow him to our table.
"And Matthew you look extremely handsome." He blushes and we sit down.
We eat a nice fancy meal, and its wonderful. We talk about absolutely everything. Matt is just so easy to talk to.
After we finish our meal Matt pays the check and stands up, coming to my side of the table.
"I have one last surprise my dear." He grabs a hold of my hand and leads me up a flight of stairs to the roof. There's a beautiful garden, and in the center is a huge fountain. He leads me to the center and we sit on the edge of the water. He holds my hands in his and looks at me.
"Kat, You are the most amazing girlfriend I could ever ask for. These last few days with you have been the greatest days in my entire life. I am so glad you're mine and I love you." I smile, and he pulls a small box out of his pocket. He opens it, and inside is a beautiful locket with our initials on it. Inside the locket is a small picture of us.
"Matthew this is beautiful! Thank you so much!" I hug him and he rubs my back.
"Happy Valentines Day beautiful." He leans in and kisses me.
God do I love this kid.
