AURORA'S POV

I shuffle around. It's been hard.

"My tea's gone cold; I'm wondering why? I got out of bed at all."

I look around, slightly sitting up on my bed.

Who the hell is playing music?

"And even if I could, it'd all gray, but your picture on my wall."

I hear faint singing. "Who the hell is singing Dido?" I hear Colby yell from the guest room.

"shut up!" I yell back, "Fuck you!" he yells back. I stand up and follow the music.

"I missed the bus, and there'll be hell today; I'm late for work again; and even if I'm there, they'll all imply."

My lord.

It's coming from outside.

I burst out laughing as soon as I see who's below my window and carrying roses.

"Jesus Christ Dario," I laugh, holding my hand over my mouth.

He smiles, singing. "And I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life," he says, lifting up his free hand.

"Oh, just to be with you is having the best day of my life." I smile at him. I didn't know Dario De Lorentuz was a romantic man.

I smile as he finishes off the song.

He points behind him, and I move my eyes to where he's pointing.

A large trailer is parked near the entrance of the house; it's got a sign-up.

It says, 'Will you make this the best day of my life and be my girlfriend?' I cupped my mouth in surprise.

"will you?" He asks, lifting up the bouquet of roses for me to see. I close my window and put my slippers on.

I ran downstairs and out of the door to meet him. He's pacing back and forth. I stop in front of him.

"Yes," I say, and he stops moving. "You said yes?" He asks, and I nod my head. He puts the roses down and hugs me, lifting me off the ground.

"Thank you!" he says, putting me down. I cupped his face and kissed him. His lips feel even better now that he's mine. 

"Oh wow," he chuckles as we part ways. "I love you," I confess, looking into his eyes.

those stormy gray eyes; they now hold care, admiration, and...

"I love you too, Aurora," he says, kissing me once more. "You're perfect," I whisper, loving the way I fit perfectly in his arms.

He smells amazing.

"fuck yea! You got a man now; I'm free!" Colby yells. I look up and notice half of my cousins all leaning out of my room window.

I roll my eyes.

"Fuck off," I tell them; they laugh but nonetheless listen and close my window.

I turn around and look at my boyfriend.

that sounds nice. Boyfriend. Dario De Lorentuz is my boyfriend.

"Now, these are for you." He hands me the roses, and I smile at the gesture. I am all smiles and giggles.

Cue 'kiss me' by sixpence none the richer.

I'm such a sucker for romance; I love him. He's the one I want.

"Let's go inside." I grab his arm and drag him inside. I'm going to show him what a good choice he made in making me his girlfriend.

cue an evil laugh.
