Somewhere in the mix of everything that had happened in my life I had managed to meet the most caring, beautiful soul ever to have existed.
Everyday Paul never failed to show me how much he loved and cared for me. It was the little things, like he listened intently to me when I spoke, he matched my energy whenever I was passionate about something. He wanted to watch me succeed and I could honestly say I only wanted the same for him.
It was the final full day of our Maldives vacation and after everything that had gone on previously, our separation period, the run in with the Vampire Kings as the utter chaos had brought us to this very moment.
Lounging around on the sandy beach in the blistering heat was exactly how I wanted to spend our last day. We were going out tonight, for one last meal and a mini celebration.We didn't have anything major to celebrate but I'm not turning down the opportunity to drink and have a time. Because as soon as we hit US territory we are no longer Legal to drink freely again.
"Remind me again why we have to leave this place?" I said absentmindedly whilst sipping on my piña colada which was in one hand and I had my book in the other.
"Because as much as I'd love to stay here forever with you, we are still apart of a pack of wolves and we simply can't just abandon them without god reason" Paul replied whilst keeping his eyes firmly closed and his hands behind his head.
With a small huff escaping my lips I went back to my book.
"That was a big huff, come on what's wrong?" Park said finally opening his eyes to look at me.
"Oh no nothing I'm just sad to have to leave here in less than 24 hours"
"Let's not think about that, we still have dinner tonight to look forward to" he said reasoning once again.See this is what I loved about our relationship, we balanced each other out, I was the fun but over dramatic girlfriend and he was the laid back, filled with reason boyfriend. Balance.
Sounds 4pm we both decided it was a good time to head back to our room so we could shower and get ready for the night ahead.
I took my shower first as I typically take longer than he does in the shower, plus I still had to pick an outfit, do my hair and make up all in the space of about 2 hours.Dinner went by gracefully, there was a lot of laughter but also deep filled conversations.
We were enjoying a very cliche walk along the by the beach when Paul turned around and faced me.
"You know there's something I've been meaning to tell you and I feel like I don't tell you enough about how I truly adore you. I appreciate you and everything you do for me. I fuck up a lot but you always seem to find it in your heart to forgive me and sometimes I don't know why because I can be a major dickhead but regardless of all that I wanted you to know how much I truly love every fibre of your being"
"We tell each other that all the time" i said softly
"This time is different though. I smile a little more when you're around. And I think that's what made me realise I'm in love with you.
That without even trying you made my life better. You are the light finally leading me home. And I have absolutely no idea what I'd do without you in my life"I couldn't help but stand and stare in awe at this man. Truly the greatest. "Paul I love you endless amounts too and I'm grateful that you continue to put up with my stubbornness no matter what"
"You being stubborn is what makes you, you and I never want you to change that!"
Falling in love with Paul made me realise that I didn't need to worry about anything else in the world. His love and kindness was truly all that I would ever need in life and I think that is one of the greatest gifts I could have ever received. Someone who cares endlessly about me and always wants me to strive to do great things and I naturally feel like I want to make him proud because no matter what I'm proud of him and everything he's had to overcome.
I promised myself I would never fall in love with him. But it was 4 am, and we were laughing way too hard and I felt happy for the first time in a long time and I knew I was screwed. From that moment I knew this boy would be it for me and gosh damn am I glad it is him.
A/n and that's it, Wonder is now over! Part of me will be sad it's ok we but I'm also glad I had made it this far! Can't believe how popular its been and I hope you guys have enjoyed reading this!
