Watching their love story Book2

Bonse#8(Dean and hope)

Dean Pov

Fuck, l'm so nervous! I've never been this damn nervous for anything in my life, not a game, a race, a powerful spell nothing. I'm sitting at my locker in the locker room, l've got all my uniforms on except my helmet that sits beside me on the wooden bench. One of the trainers, jame , is wrapping my fingers in tape as I anxiously bounce my right leg. Ash  plops down heavily beside me,
"You good?" He asks, his eyes glancing at my bouncing leg before moving back to my face.
I nod, "Yeah."
"You sure?" He asks with a chuckle.
I roll my eyes, "It's not the game."
"Oh, I know it's not the game that's making you so damn nervous. She's going to say yes, stop freaking out."Ash  says, slapping my shoulder before standing and talking to jaxon and a couple of others.
I sigh as Jame  finishes and I flex my fingers, "You sure about this?" He asks.
"Never been so sure about something in my life," I say confidently.
He nods, "Then what do you have to be nervous about?" I shrug, "She could always say no, that she's not ready for this type of commitment yet."

"I've seen the way she looks at you while you're practicing spells and suff
Plus, Not to mention you and hope have been going At since you two were 14 years old and not to also mention your overbearing protectiveness." He states with a chuckle, he pats my back with a smile, "You're going to win this game then you're going to get your girl."
I nod, "Thanks, man."
He fist-bumps me before walking away. I stand and blow out a breath of air coach walks over to me, he raises an eyebrow,
"Are you ready for this?" He asks.
I nod, "Yes, sir."
"Good. The ring is in my pocket, let's get this show on the road." He says, slapping my back as we walk towards the others that are in the huddle.
Coach says his speech that I'm halfway tuned into as I get my head into the game and not the beauty sitting in the stands wearing my jersey proudly, or what she has hidden underneath it. I slide my helmet on as we walk out of the locker room and towards the tunnel, jaxon slaps my helmet as he runs past with a few others, everyone running out as the band plays and the crowd cheers. I take a deep breath, then rush out of the tunnel, the hometown crowd defining as l emerge. My eyes search for my one and only, and I point to her when I find her before going to the huddle. After we break, I walk to the middle of the field where the referee and other team captains are. A microphone is held up to the other team's quarterback's helmet,
"Heads or tails?" the referee asks.
"Tails." He states, way too confident for my liking. I glance at jaxon and Ash who has the same thoughts I do, we're going to knock him down a peg or two.
The referee flips the coin and it lands on heads, I smirk behind my helmet, may the odds be in my favor.
We shake hands, and then move to our respective sides of the field. We're starting this game and I'm hyped for it, the nerves I felt before are long gone and all that's left is excitement and energy.

Hope Pov

It should be illegal for a man to look that good in a football uniform. Josie nudges me, making me glance at her and she wiggles her eyebrows at me,
"I'm not going to tell you what I'm thinking because he's your brother but my gosh!" She yells to me over the crowd, I scrunch my face in disgust and she laughs.
We watched the game anxiously, the game , kicked off and started the game. Ten minutes into the game we're already on the board, Dean  throwing the ball to Ash  and him making a touchdown, the crowd around us going nuts as he does a dance in the end zone. It's an easy game, to be honest, but Dean  seems to be playing with them, and apparently, the team has picked up on it because jaxon  has sacked their quarterback five different times. At halftime, we're at twenty-eight to three. Dean rips his helmet off as he runs over to the family section of the stands. He jumps up on the wall, points at me then curls his finger.
Beatrix pushes me and I stand to make my way down to him, the crowd around us cheering because he's so close. Am I seriously dating a superstar athlete? He grins when I get to and he reaches out, threading his fingers through my hair to pull me into a deep kiss. I smile into it, wrapping my arms around his neck before he pulls back as Ash  yells for him,
"Stop showing off and come on!" Ash  yells running over to us.
Dean  grins at me then jumps down, "I love you!" He yells before running back to the oval with Ash .
I giggle before making my way back over to my parents and Josie and Beatrix and uncle Elijah , ignoring the looks I'm getting, and sit down in my seat between Mom and Josie and Beatrix. Uncle Elijah shakes his head,
"I have to say, he's got a different spark about him this season and I think I know why," Uncle Elijah says before giving me a smile.
Beatrix  giggles, "Aren't they just the cutest thing?!"
I blush, as we watch the band play for halftime. Dad and Beatrix go off  holding hands to get us snacks before making it back right as the game is starting again.
Dean  drags it out, showing out for the crowd when he wants now that the Mikealson's boarding school are up forty-nine to three. I knew this would be an easy game but my goodness, they're not even trying to give them a chance. After the timer runs out at the end of the fourth quarter and the teams shake hands and part, Dean  is left standing in the middle of the field.
A trainer runs out handing him a bouquet of light pink roses and something else I can't see. The whole team is on the field but they've given Dean  some room, and Ash  is walking over to the stands. I turn to my parents, my mom who has tears in her eyes, and my dad and uncle Elijah who has a proud smile on their face. Josie and Beatrix squeals and nudges me, "Go!" They both yells to me, the crowd growing quiet because they don't know what's going on either, cameras surrounding Dean and one following Ash.

Ash stops at the gate at the bottom of the stands and waves to me to come to him. Beatrix and Josie pushes at me but I'm speechless and nervous, what the hell is he doing?
"Come on, my wolf princess . You can't leave me hanging. I'm nervous too." Dean  voice fills the oviland I turn to him, he gives me a comforting smile that gives me the strength to stand to my feet and walk to my brother, who has security open the gate and let me through. He loops his arm with mine,

"What the hell is he doing, Ash?" | ask, my voice shaking.
"You know what he's doing," Ash  says, giving me a smile. I clutch onto his arm, seriously? In the middle of a packed oval? Thousands of people! I'm going to kill him!
Dean  gives me cheeky smile as we get closer,
"A packed Oval? Seriously?" I whisper yell to him, hopping the microphone won't pick it up but it does. The crowd laughs and so do the team, coaches, and Ash .
"You know I have to show out," Dean says with a grin as I stop in front of him. He hands me the flowers that I gratefully take with shaking hands before he drops to knee, Sage taking the microphone. I can't stop the tears from forming, my whole body shaking before Dean takes my left hand in his, his hand is shaking too.
"You mean so much to me, you have for a very long time.
You are the best thing to ever happen to me and I want to give you the world. I vow to protect you from everything and everyone that tries to hurt you. I vow to love you for forever , even when you're mad at me, like right now." Everyone laughs and I let out a small giggle, "Will you do me the honors of being my wife, Hope Andrea Mikaelson ?" He asks, looking into my eyes, there's so much love, devotion, and adoration in his eyes.
I nod as Ash  moves the microphone to me, "Yes, so many times yes!" I say as he stands, taking the ring out of the little blue box and sliding it onto my left ring finger before pulling me into a tight hug.
"You have no idea how nervous l've been all day." He says into my ear as everyone cheers around us. He pulls back from the hug, cups my face, and kisses me deeply. We pull back from the kiss when Ash groans beside us and then wraps us both in a hug. I laugh pulling away from the hug then turn to Dean, slapping his chest but all l hit is padding,
"In front of thousands of people?! Are you crazy?!" | yell over everyone cheering and he grins, "Crazy for you!" He yells back before pulling me into another hug.
The families move onto the field, Mom and uncle Elijah and dad And Beatrix enveloping Dean  and me in hugs.

I pull back from Beatrix, "Did you know about this?"
She laughs, wiping her wet cheeks, "I did! He told us this last week ! It's been so hard keeping it a secret!"
Josie pulls me into a hug before pulling away and grabbing my hand, "Woah! Look at this boulder!"

I laugh as she examines the ring. All the school comes ups to us congradulating us before moving to the locker room.Dean  wraps his arms around me from behind and pulls me into his chest,
"I'm going to go shower and change, okay? You want to wait for me in the Audi and we can go eat somewhere?" He asks softly in my ear.
I nod, before Ash  speaks up,
"Where are we going to eat? I'm starving!" He says, throwing an arm around Dean shoulders.
Uncle Elijah chuckles, "I think they want to be alone, Ash ."
I blush and Dean  chuckles while Ash groans in disgust.
Josie winks at me before moving closer to Ash  and whispering something in his ear, his eyes light up as she backs away enough to look at his face with raised eyebrows, "Yeah, you two go have fun. I'm going to stay with Josie  tonight." Ash says with a grin.
