JJ's POV

"Hi love." I get into the car, Emily picks me up from practice everyday. I have my car here but I hate driving so Em always offers to take me places. "Hi beautiful." She says and I give her a quick kiss and shut the door.

"How was practice." "Coach Brielle is being so hard on us this season. If we breathe the wrong way she's screams at us. But thank goodness we have more coaches now. Coach Vic and Coach Bella. They're both so sweet." I say.

"How's your team doing?" She asks. "Actually pretty good, I think we're going to do good this season. Being captain is actually kinda stressful tho because Brielle always dumps all her shit on to me." I say.

"Tell her I said to cut it out before I bring out the big guns." Emily jokes. "Got it." I laugh.

"Where are we going?" I look out the window and she turned too soon. "To watch the sunset." She says. "Awww." That's so cute.

We arrive at the field that we laid at the day we had our first kiss. "Emily in like a week... it'll be 2 years since our first kiss." I say. "I've been 2 years of my life kissing you. Wouldn't rather have it any other way." She says as we lay down.

I snuggle into her as it was chilly outside and we look at the colors in the sky and it was so gorgeous.

Em rubbed up and down my back as I placed little kisses on her cheek. "I wish there was another word for love. Like a word that's bigger than love. Like unconditional love. That's what I feel about you." I say. "Can we just get married already. Like what's the hold up I always know I'm going to love you forever." Emily says and I giggle.

"I'm serious JJ. Like not right now but we're old enough now. We're about to graduate. Like if I proposed soon would you say yes?" She asks and I was taken aback. I always assumed we would wait until we're out of college but It's Emily so I don't even have to think twice about my answer.

"Of course I would say yes. But you don't have to go all out to try to impress me. It's you Emily, I would say yes if you gave me a ring pop." I say. Okay now I'm excited.

"Wait like when are you gonna do it?" I ask. "I don't know yet Jayje but even if I did I wouldn't tell you that beats the surprise."

"Okay but now I want you to be my fiancé now so just ask me now and buy me a ring pop or something later." I say eagerly. "This is why I can never tell you when I'm planning to do big things for us." She laughs.

"What? What do you mean!" I say. "Before we started dating I told you that I was gonna ask you out soon and you got impatient and we started dating 5 minutes later. Now it's the same thing!" She smiles. "So you admit we're fiancés?" I say.

"Did you just hear a single word that came out of my mouth?" She throws her hands up in defeat. "Becauseeeee I love you too much to wait." I say kissing her. "We have all of the rest of our lives to be together my love. Let me make this perfect." She says. "Okay." I look up at her and kiss her. Gosh she's so perfect for me.
