Still Erl's POV

Today is the big day. Today is our anniversary. Today I will ask Eve to be my wife. And I am fucking nervous. I mean... I love her and I know she loves me too but still I'm kinda worried that she might say no. Like... Two weeks ago she broke up with me because she thought I was cheating and then she told me that her mental health is really bad right now. It's quite hard at the moment, for both of us but especially for her. Therefore I'm a little worried. But I love Eve more than anything else in the world and I want to spend the rest of my life with her and so I will just ask her.

Right now I'm making breakfast for her. She is doing some university stuff and just as Astor told me when we chatted some days ago I will spoil her a little before telling her that I want to meet her in the afternoon and that Maddy will pick her up for that. I'm so thankful for the wonderful friends I have. Maddy, Julian, Jadon, Jude, Marie and Gio helped me so much with planning everything and now also help me with really doing everything. Especially Maddy is helping a lot. And that at eight months pregnant. Her belly really is huge and still she is supervising everything. I am so fucking happy to have her as one of my friends.

Anyway, the pancakes are ready and I put them on a plate which I then put on a tray. On it there are already some other things, fresh orange juice, some fruit, Nutella, jam and a cup of her favourite tea. Oh, and a little flower bouquet is there as well I lift the tray up and then leave the kitchen. I enter her office and walk to her. After heaving put the tray on her desk I pull Eve in my arms and say: "Good morning kjære. Happy anniversary. I can't believe it's been two years already. Two years with ups and downs and most importantly with loads of love. More love than I thought I'd every experience. I love you Eve." With every word I say her smile gets bigger and she presses herself very close against me. "Happy anniversary, Erl. I love you too. And those two years really have been the best ones of my life, even though we had some very bad downs. With you by my side I feel like I can do everything. I'm so happy to have you by my side. Thanks for being you. And thanks for always making me the happiest.", she says before pulling my face down to hers. Her soft lips touch mine and I really enjoy to feel them. To feel Eve. I pull her even closer and return the kiss intensively. Our tongues play slowly and intensively and I really get lost in the kiss but after some time I separate our lips and hand her the little flowerg bouquet.

Eve happily takes and smells them and than goes: "They're so beautiful, Erling! Thank you so much. And thanks for the breakfast, it smells and looks amazing." I smile at her and kiss her forehead before saying: "I hope you enjoy your breakfast. I know you gotta do some university stuff and I'll leave you alone so you can concentrate better. I've planned something for later and still gotta organise some stuff anyway. Maddy will pick you up and take you to our dinner location, okay? She'll be here at 5:30." Eve nods and answers: "Okay. But I hope you didn't spend too much money on everything, you know how much I hate that." I chuckle and reply: "Yeah I know. And I promise that I didn't spend too much. And now enjoy your breakfast and your work. And don't forget to put the dress I put on our bed on later." She nods and then connects our lips again, softly sucking on mine which really feels incredible.

It feels like we're kissing for an eternaty and I really appreciate it but then I really gotta go. I separate our lips and whisper: "I love you, Eve." She smiles and whispers: "I love you too." I feather another kiss on her lips and then leave the room. I enter the guest room and get my outfit for the evening out of the closet. It's a suit which is pretty much the same colour as my eyes and made from silk. The dress I put on the bed for Eve before making breakfast is the same colour and material and I also put some jewellery there. A necklace, earrings and a bracelet with diamonds that are the same as the one on the engagement ring that I bought. And when we're talking about the ring already I should maybe tell you what it looks like.

It is silver and the exterior is completely covered with little, shiny diamonds. On top of the ring there's a big white diamond. 4 carat and brilliant-cut. Since I wanted it to be more personal I asked the jeweller to engrave our initials in the diamond. E&E. And for the inside I chose the coordinates of the park where we had our first kiss. The ring is absolutely stunning and I am sure that Eve will love it. It really is perfect.

Anyway, I take my suit and sark and my elegant shoes and then leave our apartment for the location. It's been quite tricky to get one, you can't rent anything at the moment, but Jannis once had a photoshoot in some gorgeous little castle that has been made a little modern and he asked the owner if we could have it for this evening and fortunately he said yes. The location really is perfect, the building is old but with the big windows and the clean furniture it is also very modern. It's just perfect, perfect for asking her. And I'm really thrilled to see what Julian, Maddy, Jude, Jadon, Gio and Marie made out of it and so I get in my car.
