Nora's Pov

He brought me to a beach...at night. I always wanted to go to the beach at night but I was held back, preventing me from going.

Now I'm here with my favorite person in the world. "Your eyes are closed right?" He asked as he guided me along the sand.

I can feel the butterflies fluttering inside of me and the excitement I had when he told me we were going to the beach hasn't decreased a bit but only grew more.

"You're covering my eyes babe, either way, I can't see," I stated whilst chuckling and all I heard was a nervous laugh.

I find it really adorable that he still gets nervous around me but the difference from now to then is that he's comfortable around me.

He has opened up to me more than before and it makes me so fucking happy knowing that he trusts me, with his everything.

"Okay, keep them closed Nora," I felt him move from behind me to stand in front of me and I bit my lip nervously.

"Open," He demanded softly and I slowly opened my eyes to see Liam looking down at me with a small smile.

I smiled back and he looked down at my hands before taking them into his. Oh fuck, is he going to propose? I sure hope not since I might have a heart attack.

"I wanted to do something special for you because I know you don't care about your birthday much and I know how much you love simple things so I decided to do this," He moved out of the way and a loud gasp escaped my lips.

Oh, no way.

There was a hearts shaped bowl filled with strawberries, my favorite ever and it was surrounded by dead rose petals along with bright red petals.

It matched so well with the outfit I had on, a complete Gothic vibe. My teenage self would be screaming right now.

I could see everything clearly as it wasn't dark yet, I mean, it was only 7 o'clock which is crazy because it looks like it's 9 in the fucking morning.

He laid out everything so perfectly and not only were there strawberries but there was a packed duffel bag on the side.

"Liam," He looked at me like a deer caught in headlights," Is there more than just eating strawberries and watching the sky and waves?" I asked smirking while folding my arms.

His hand instantly shot up to scratch behind his ear and I knew there was more. "Well, that's sort of, maybe the surprise," I ushered him to go on and he took a deep breath.

"We're going late night swimming, I remembered you told me you used to come here with your dad and you haven't done it ever since he died s-so I figu-" I cut him off by practically throwing myself onto him, wrapping my arms around his neck and smashing my lips against his.

He responded shortly after and kissed me back with the same intensity.

This day was getting better and better and at this point, I have no idea how else to thank him by attacking him with my precious love and affection.

I kissed him slowly, feeling the familiar fireworks igniting inside of me every time I pressed my lips against his. Liam Asher, the love of my life.

His hand went up to my cheek and he tilted his head to the side to get a better angle and to deepen the kiss.

His lips tasted sweet and it was so soft, I wanted to stay here and kiss him for hours. I could care less about breathing.

I decided to break the kiss and I leaned my forehead onto his, looking into his eyes as his drowned into mine.
