True Love

Ashton POV

Annabelle and I are sitting together, back in my dorm room. I'm sitting, and she's in between my legs. We're just kind of chilling.

"You know that I really, really love you, right?" I tells her, wrapping my arms around her waist.

"Twenty-one days," Belle says.

"What?"

"Twenty-one days. The length it took my to fall in love with you."

"One second," I respond.

"What?"

"I've loved you since the moment I say you. It was the beginning of the year, last year."

I walk into campus with the guys behind me.

"So, Ash, now that we're college guys, do you think we'll get laid more?" Michael asks me.

"Duh," I respond. I turn my so I can see what's ahead of me, but my view is blocked by four girls. Hell, one of them was the view. I stop what I'm doing just to stare. She's wearing small shorts, and a flowy tank top. Her hair is French braided and she tops it off with sunglasses. But none of that is my main focus. My focus is on her smile. It's so beautiful, and her eyes reflect her smile. She's beautiful, a girl more beautiful than I've ever seen in my life.

"Dude, what are you staring at?" Luke nudges me and I get knocked out my thoughts.

"Sorry." I mumble.

For the rest of the year, I watch her. I don't stalk, cause that'd be weird. But I watch her. I notice the small things. My friends always made of fun of me for it. They thought I should talk to her, but I didn't want to. I was learning tons from watching her. Observing, it's the best way to learn. You can tell someone something a bunch of times, but unless you actually do it, the person won't know.

When summer break come along, I thought I would get over my "small crush." But I didn't, and the moment I saw her again the next year I was right back at it. I quickly realized it wasn't a small crush, but rather a huge hole that I've fallen into called love, that only seems to get deeper and deeper as I fall. And I wouldn't have it any other way.

"So, yeah," I say, embarrassed. Belle turns around and faces me. She kisses me and it surprises me. I kiss back, though. When we pull apart, I'm in shock at the suddenness.

"I love you, you know?" She says and I nod.

"I never thought love at first sight was real. I always thought you should fall in love with a person, not a face. But, after meeting you, I realized it was real. You can learn a lot about a person about their face. If their eyes are always sparkling, they're a happy person. It's simple, really. Falling in love is weird, it really is," I say.

"People fall in love in mysterious ways," Annabelle sings.

"Maybe just a touch of a hand."

"That line is so true."

"I love you," She says.

"You can say I love you so many times, but love must be shown. Unless you show to a person you love them, how is that person to believe you?"

"You make a good point."

"The true love is the love that is shown, not told."

"You should get that tattooed."

"I should," I agree.

"Do I prove to you that I love you?"

"All the time."

"Good, because I honestly want you to know. I love you."

"I know. I love you, too." I lean down and kiss her head. We're silent for a few minutes, until I break the silence.

"Marry me," I say.

"What?" Belle sits up, astonished at my random question.

"Not right now. Just promise me, that you'll marry me one day."

"Ashton, I'm only nineteen-"

"I'm being honest. I love you and I want to marry you."

Annabelle sighs, "Alright. I promise you I'll marry you."

"Good, because I couldn't see myself in anyone else's arms."

And I honestly couldn't. Annabelle is the only girl I ever have and probably ever will love.

I want to marry her.
