"I've been on my knees, change the prophecy"
The prophecy by Taylor Swift

I take a pink, satin ribbon from my pocket and start tying my hair up. Walker and I have been brainstorming for the last hour on the balcony, which really tired me out. Or maybe it's just the weather becoming gloomy? Anyway, I decided our best option was Walker trying to catch my bodyguard in the act. We are planning to start tomorrow because we both want a good sleep tonight.
"We should probably go indoors, it's looking rainy" I suggest. The clouds rumble and wind whips my face. Small goosebumps begun popping up on my arms.
"Why don't we just stay out here?"
"It's going to rain, Walker" I roll my eyes.
"C'mon, you haven't got out of this apartment in three days!" Walker picks up my hand and drags me towards the door
"Walkerrrr"

He drags me through the hallways, into the elevator.
"Where are we going?" I ask. I don't love surprises... I like everything to be planned out, so I can prepare.
"Nowhere!" He laughs, encouraging me to walk with him.
"What?" I smile.
The elevator door opens into the lobby, filled with posh old couples and rich children with baby designer clothes. Some give us funny faces and others just look plain confused.

Barefoot, Walker lead me around the buffet and towards the back sliding door. Upon stepping out, I was greeted with a gorgeous courtyard, decorated with white pots, embellished with golden designs on the rim. In the centre, a polished fountain spewed out water that looked as perfect as glass. I almost tripped over my feet, astonished with the architecture and flawless designs. Water droplets fell generously onto the ground, which didn't do me any favours with my cold bare feet.

"Care for a dance princess?" Walker held out his hands, veiny and strong.
My heart misses a beat, and I can feel my cheeks going cherry red.
"In what world would I say no?" I laugh, trying to cover my disbelief.
The cold breeze and rain dampens my hair, loosening it from my messy bun and falling onto my naked shoulders. A tank top probably wasn't the best choice. His hands spread a fire like warmth onto mine as we step around the tiled courtyard. Honestly I can't say I wasn't surprised by this bold move, I never knew him to be a romantic type. Walker spun me around, like a literal princess from the 1800s, catching me by the waist. I look up at his beyond gorgeous face, shining smile with mesmerising ocean eyes. Slowly, he lifts up my torso and wraps his strong arms around my waist while mine wander to his neck, allowing me to kiss him lightly.

The next hour was a blur, between dancing in the rain and our perfect kiss. In my mind, Abba was playing the entire time. I took this memory and shoved it into a little part of my mind, the clean shelf I keep all my most beloved memories on. I have a feeling this memory will revisit me quite a lot.

A/N: hey everyone, how are you?? Sorry for the wait, I've been quite busy. This was a short one so maybe I'll write another tomorrow. I hope you like the improvement in my writing style. I've been looking at more writing techniques. It would really help if you voted this up! Thanks babes xx
