Silver and Gray Ashes

Chapter 6

Harper's POV

After the match Lily and I planned a little date. I'm planning on asking her to be my girlfriend officially. We both went home to get changed, I decided on something formal namely because I'm taking the Love of my life out for a date. I put on a light peach pink button down because that's her favourite colour with a reddish grape purple Italian trousers  and black blazer.

Before going I packed up the gift I was planning on giving her, which is a silver necklace with a heart pendant which if you can open you can find a picture of us in it. I made it for her, I have worked on it for months. I put not just energy but also a lots of love in making it. I have also made a bouquet of flowers for her, with carefully picked flowers: Forget me nots, Tulips and Wild thymes. She adores every single of these flowers, these are her favourites. 

It was time for me to go and meet her, so we can walk to where our date will take place. When I got her I knocked on her door to let her know I'm there. I handed her the flowers and my jaw dropped when I saw her. She was wearing a creme coloured, silk maxi slip dress, her gorgeous wavy, brunette hair falling on her shoulders, she smelled like vanilla and she was wearing a silver ring that I made for her, and a beautiful pearl necklace resting on her beautiful neck. She was also wearing a white high heel. She looked so stunning, and holding the bouquet made her more even beautiful. In that moment I fall in love with her once more again.

I offered her my hand and we started our little walk to the Japanese Garden. We had our first date there. It is a quiet place, not too many people go there because it is a little bit hidden and most people don't care enough to look for it. So we walked all around it and talked about all kinds of things. We sat down and after a while a comfortable silence settled down between us that's when I know it's my time now, so I looked her in the eyes hold her hand and I started my speech.

-My Dear Lily! You are the most gorgeous woman inside-out I have ever met. As soon as I first laid my eyes on you I know we are connected, and we are meant to be. It took you nothing to get me off my feet and make me completely fall in love with you. If You would honour me with officially becoming my Girlfriend? 

She teared up and softly whispered - Yes. 

I wiped the tears of her gorgeous face and gave her the necklace I made. Then I jokingly said, don't cry, your make up is way too expensive for it. She laughed, that sound is like the sound of  hundreds of tiny bells in one word it is so gorgeous. I wish to make her laugh every day  until the day my soul leaves this body.
