"Yeah, I know. You don't look too bad yourself, cowboy." I say, taking the bouquet out of his arms.
"These are beautiful! I love them; thank you!"
I lay them on the kitchen counter before going to hug Josh.
As I hold my arms out for a hug, he grabs my waist and pulls me into a kiss.
"You're welcome. It's the least I could do."
He takes my hand and we walk out to his car.
"So, where are we going?"
"Far from here and the paparazzi. We're gonna spend the night out of town."
"But I don't have any other clothes."
"You can wear mine."
A grin grows on my face.
I love wearing his clothes.
"Is that ok?"
"It's more than ok; it's perfect."
"Alright, then we're good."
I slowly drift off to sleep
─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ.───
I wake up a little over 2 hours later in a quaint beach town.
"Wow, this place is beautiful."
"Welcome to La Jolla, California!"
We had an amazing dinner at The Marine Room before heading to the hotel.
"You know you outdid yourself this time."
"Oh, really?"
"Yep, a huge step up from having car sex before going through the In-N-Out drive-thru."
He chuckles, "What's more romantic than that?"
"Carboload after burning calories, huh?"
"See you get it!"
I shake my head.
"Ok, cover your eyes."
"No, I don't trust you."
"Why? I haven't given you a reason not to."
"Hmm, what about the Nessa situation."
"Ok, ok, but at least I haven't gotten you pregnant, so that's enough reason to trust me."
"I hate you."
"But you listened."
He guides me into the room.
"Now open your eyes."

"Julia Marie Hall, you have the most beautiful soul I've ever known. You're gorgeous inside and out and you make me so happy. Will you make me the happiest man on earth by being my girlfriend?"
"That was so cheesy!"
"OMG!"
"But yes! I will!"
I connect our lips.
I pull back and whisper in his ear.
"Been so well-behaved, but, boy, I'm weak. I've been waiting all day for it, so now I wanna get nasty."

I hate this chapter. It's so cringy, but I need to get something out.
