Love on Board

Chapter 33

Bea's POV

Jhoana stared at the setup, her eyes filled with surprise and admiration. She took a moment to take it all in—the flickering candles, the delicate flower petals scattered on the floor, and the bouquet I was holding out to her.

“Bea…” she whispered, her voice thick with emotion.

I could see the tears welling up in her eyes, and I immediately stepped closer, wrapping my arms around her. “Baby, I wanted to do something special for you. You deserve this and so much more.”

She pulled back slightly, just enough to look into my eyes, and smiled. “You didn’t have to do this , but I’m so glad you did. It’s perfect. You’re perfect.”

I felt my heart swell with happiness, and I couldn’t resist leaning in to kiss her. “I’m just happy to see you smile like this. I love you, Jhoana.”

“I love you too, Bea,” she replied, her voice full of sincerity.

We held each other for a moment longer before I gently guided her to the table. “Let’s enjoy this dinner. I had it prepared just for us.”

She laughed lightly as we sat down. “You really planned everything, huh? I’m impressed.”

“Of course,” I said, beaming with pride. “I wanted tonight to be special. We’re celebrating us.”

The two of us shared a wonderful meal, filled with laughter and stories. I couldn’t help but feel grateful for this moment, for having her in my life. Every time she looked at me with those loving eyes, I knew that all the effort I put into this surprise was worth it.

After dinner, as we sat there, enjoying the night sky from the balcony, Jhoana leaned her head on my shoulder. “Thank you for tonight, Bea. I’ll never forget this.”

I kissed the top of her head, holding her close. “There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for you, baby. This is just the beginning. I want to keep making you happy, every day.”

She looked up at me, a playful smile on her lips. “Well, you’re off to a great start. But remember, I still owe you those 27 kisses.”

I laughed, feeling a sense of joy and contentment wash over me. “I haven’t forgotten. I’m looking forward to getting all of them.”

And with that, the night continued, full of warmth, love, and the promise of many more moments like this to come.

Jhoana's POV

As I sat on the balcony with Bea, everything felt like a dream. But the warmth of her embrace, the sweetness of her smiles, and the love that seemed to surround us were all real.

I looked at her, the woman I never expected would become so important in my life. I didn’t expect any of this to happen, but here we were, sitting under the stars, and I could feel a love I had never experienced before.

“Thank you for tonight, Bea. I won’t forget this,” I said as I leaned against her shoulder. Words weren’t enough to describe how happy I was.

She kissed my head and hugged me tightly. “I’ll do anything for you, baby. This is just the beginning. I want to make you happy every day,” she said, and I could feel the sincerity in her voice.

I looked at her and couldn’t help but smile. She wasn’t just sweet or thoughtful—she was the kind of person who would give everything for the person she loves. I was so lucky.

“You’re off to a good start, Bea. But remember, I still owe you 27 kisses,” I said, trying to lighten the mood. I wanted us to feel at ease, especially since I knew this moment was special for both of us.

She laughed, and the sound of her laughter was like music to my ears. “I haven’t forgotten. I’m looking forward to getting all of them,” she replied.

Honestly, everything that happened from this morning until now felt like a whirlwind. It all happened so quickly, but so much had already changed. Bea and I became official, and now, here she was, making me feel like I made the right decision to choose her.

As I stared at her, I realized that everything felt right. I loved Bea, and she loved me. There was nothing more I could wish for than for us to continue loving each other like this. Tonight, as we sat together, I was certain she was part of the future I wanted to build.

No matter how many times I tried to say “thank you” in my mind, it never seemed enough. But with every hug, every kiss, and every smile, I knew she felt everything I couldn’t put into words.

Under the night sky, I knew that no matter what happens, Bea and I would face it together.

"Baby," she said.

"Hmm?"

"Let's go inside. Do you want to sleep here? I want to if you'll ask me, hahaha," she said. I laughed—did I even have a choice?

"Hahaha, what choice do I have? You already want it. But I don’t have clothes here," I replied.

"That’s not a problem. Use mine. I have spandex and an oversized shirt, hehe. We’ll go to your condo earlier tomorrow so you won’t be late," she said with a mischievous smile.

"Baby, stop. What are you thinking? I’m not ready for those things—you look like a maniac, haha," I said.

"This look? Don’t worry, you're the only one I’d be a maniac for," she said, winking.

"Heh, let's just go. I have to get up early tomorrow," I said as we laughed and walked into her room together. It smelled so good, and everything was so clean. Good job, Bea.

"Why don’t we shower together? Save water," she suddenly suggested.

"No, hahaha," I replied.

"Come on, baby, you've already seen this. You were the one who took care of me when I confessed to you," she said and smirking on me. I swallowed hard because it was true. Malaki yung alaga niya and baka mamaya ayain niya ko I'm not ready pa. I don’t know if I can handle it, and if we do it, it will be my first time. Bea would be the one to pop my cherry.
