I wake up and see no one beside me in bed.I sit up and walk upstairs to see Anastaisa on the couch with her hair loose."Good morning,love,"I say as I approach her."Morning,sleepyhead."She teases and opens her arms.I sit beside her and lay my head in her lap."You hungry love?"She asks as she softly brushes my hair with her hands."I'm starving,"I say."Well,let's fix that,"she says as she taps my shoulder."What do you wanna eat birthday boy?"She asks."I wanna eat tartine and coffee,"I say."Um,what is that exactly?"She asks."Toast and coffee,"I say, shrugging."Oh,cmon, don't be a bore,I'll make you something special,"she says."Okay,I'll wait here,"I say."No baby,I'm not making this alone.Youre helping,"she says, shaking her head."Okay,let's go,"I say, standing up.

We walk to the yahyt kitchen and wash our hands."What are we cooking,Chef?"I ask."Today,we are making biscotti feateggiato.My personal favorite."She says."Let's get started,"I say, placing my hands on the counter.

♡one and a half hours later♡

"And there you have it,fresh biscotti,"she says."It smells amazing,baby,"I compliment."Let's eat now so I can go swim and take pictures,"she says, handing me my plate."Thank you, love,"I say as she leads us to the dining room in front of the kitchen.We eat breakfast together as I sauvour the delicious taste of this dish.

Once we're done, I take our plates and set them down in the kitchen.We walk upstairs together and into our room."I'm gonna go shower,"she says."Can I join you?"I ask, smirking."Why,of course,"she says, walking into the bathroom.

We undress, and I take a glance at her as she ties up her hair with one intention in mind.We get in, and I look down at her as she hums to a song.She turns and faces me before I take a step towards her and push her against the wall.I brush the hair out her face before I step backwards again."What a fucking tease,Grayson"She says.I laugh before I look down at her and see her blushing.She shakes her head and washes her body."You know,baby.For my birthday each year we host a dress up party and this year's theme is Magic Mike so I need help to choose what to wear"She says rolling her eyes."I think you should wear whatever you want"I say."Shut up,that's not advice"She says.I wash my body before I get out with Anastasia helping her dry up.

"I'm gonna get a tan,"she says, walking into the room with a towel wrapped around her body.I wrap a towel around my waist and walk into the room.She opens her suitcase, and I do the same.I take out boxers and my shorts with a linen shirt.I begin wearing my clothes before I swiftly take out the ring from my pant quickly putting them in this pocket."Are you done yet, baby?"I ask."Yeah,"she says.I take a moment to take in how beautiful she looks in her dress."Let's go,"she says, taking my hand, leading me upstairs.We sit together on the sunbeds basking in the sun.

"You know baby.I would not mind getting married in winter,"she says."And why is that?"I ask."It's just so...euphoric, and my parents got married in winter."she says."If you want to get married in winter, we will get married in winter,"I say, taking her hand in mine."I'm gonna swim,wanna join me?"She asks."Sure,I was heating up anyway,"I say, walking downstairs.She opens her suitcase, and I do the same.I dig around in my suitcase but I come to the realization that I seemingly forgot to pack a swimsuit."Are you ready yet, baby?"Anastasias voice calls from the bathroom."Um,I kinda forgot to pack swim trunks, so I can't go in,"I say."Aw,okay.Lets go,"she says.

I turn and see her in a black bikini, making me stop in my tracks."Well,you sure you still wanna go in the water?"I ask, running my eyes all over her body."Of course I still wanna"She says."Now cmon let's go back up"She says taking my hand and leading me upstairs.

We get upstairs, and she goes to the edge of the boat.I walk to the engine and switch it off."Gray, look at this!"She shouts, jumping from the edge of the boat into the dark blue ocean.I look and see if she will come up.I begin counting the seconds.I throw the ring box out my pocket and lanch myself off the edge.I look around and swim before I find her."Baby,it's okay,"I say, trying to stop her hyperventilating.I swim back to the boat and lift us on the boat."Are you okay, baby?"I ask Anastasia."Yeah,I think so,"she says, rubbing her arms.I take the throw that was on the chair and wrap it around her.

"Thank you, Grayson.For all of this."She says."Don't worry about it, baby,"I say, pulling her in for a hug."I'm in love with you, Anastasia."I mutter."I'm in love with you too Grayson"She says.I let go of her, and she sits back on the chair.I scan the floor and pick up the ring box from the floor.

I get on one knee in front of Anastasia and open the box."Anastasia Athena Romeo, every day I'm near you. I feel happy and at peace.Everyday, I feel worthy of living because of you.You light my world up with your smile.So I'm giving you this ring as a promise to you until I make you my wife.From here onwards, I will try my best to be your pillar of support and your shoulder to cry on.I love you Anastasia with all my heart"I say.She puts out her hand and I slide the ring on."I love you too Grayson."She says sobbing.

I stand up and hug Anastasia.I pull away and begin wiping away her tears.She pulls me in for a passionate kiss, and I rest my hands around her waist.She pulls away and we stand there with our bodies pressed together."I'm getting kinda cold,"she says, shivering.I pick her up bridal style and walk downstairs.I walk us to the bathroom and put Anastasia down.I switch on the shower and help Anastasia take off her swimsuit.

We shower together before I switch off the water and help Anastasia out the shower.I dry her body before I wrap a towel around her body.I dry my body and wrap a towel around my waist before I walk out the bathroom.I open my suitcase and take out my joggers and boxers.I wear my clothes and walk over to Anastasia."I need your help,Gray.Beige or red?"She asks."Red,I love how red is on you,"I say."Okay,"She says.

I sit on the bed and pick up my phone and check if Bartholomew has sent me any emails or texts."I'm kinda tired now,"she says, yawning from the other side of the bed.I set my phone down and walk to her."You hungry?"I ask."No,not really.Thank you for asking."She says, smiling."Let's watch Cinderella!"she says, jumping."Okay,I'll be right back, baby,"I say, walking back upstairs.I walk to the engine and switch it on so we're at shore tomorrow by noon.

I walk back downstairs and find Anastasia sitting on the bed."Cinderella time!"She says as I walk in."Okay,"I say, laying next to her on the bed.

♡one hour and fourth five minutes later♡

The credits begin rolling before I look down at Anastasia on my chest, sleeping.I gently put her in the blankets and get in after her.I let go feeling good about how today ended.
