Today, I asked my best friend Mark to go to the forest grove just outside of LA, for a meteor shower. Of course, he obliged! We grabbed a blanket, some flashlights, and my guitar. We headed out, the sun starting to set.

We drove for a while, making small talk on the way there. I found this place a year ago, when I was just moving here. I loved it. When we got to the grove, it was almost night, and I could see the stars showing up. It was also a full moon tonight, and it was amazing.

We got out, grabbing our stuff and heading to the spot. "Wow, the moon looks beautiful tonight." I stated, laying out the blanket. We sat down, turning off our flashlights. Just then, a shooting star went across the sky.

Mark looked at me. "Hey, did you see that shooting star? Make a wish with me!" I giggled and nodded. "OK, I wish that I can stay with you forever, so we can always share moments like these." I felt my face get hot. "What do you wish for?"

"Hmmm, how about never get fat, so I can eat whatever I want!" We laughed.

Silence.

I pulled out my guitar, and started playing (whatever song you want). I sang along to the beat. After a while, Mark joined in, singing along with me. I always loved singing with him. Our voices clashed so well. Then the meteors started streaking the sky. I kept playing and singing, while Mark layed back, admiring the night.

After I finished my song, I layed back and watched the stars and meteors with him, in comforting silence. It never really got akward anymore. Then, Mark said suddenly, "did I ever tell you that you have a beautiful voice?"

My face got really hot again, and I replied "yes, you said that when you first heard me sing."

Then, he sat up, me sitting up with him. "thats not the only thing that I think is beautiful." He cupped my cheek, and started getting closer to my face. "I've been wanting to do this since I first met you." Then his lips were on mine.

That's when everything stopped around us. It was just me and him, nothing else. I felt fireworks, sparks. I had always loved Mark, and now I know he loved me too. This. This is love. I kissed back, wrapping my arms around his neck, running my hands through his hair. I could feel him smile through the kiss.

We part, foreheads against each other. "If I asked you out, would you say yes?"

"Yes."

He smiled. "Then will you be my girlfriend?"

I giggled. "Hell yeah.... Did you really mean what you said when you made that wish?"

"Of course I did. I've been in love with you since the day I met you."

I blushed. Is this really happening? "I've been in love with you since the day I met you." This is really happening.

He brought his hand to my cheek again, closing the gap between us. We kissed for a while, then parted. "I love you, (y/n)."

I blushed. "I love you, Mark."

"Then let's never be apart again. Just like the wish. After all, you can do anything if you put your mind to it."

"OK. We'll stay together, forever. Just like you wished."

"We'll stay together, forever."

And we did. We had our good times, and bad. But overall... I've never been happier. I finally found someone worth keeping. <3
