"I've never been this serious about anything." I said. "Victoria Greenwood, would you like to be my girlfriend?"
There it was. The question I've been wanting to ask her for a long time now.
I don't know how she'll react. And that's what's making me the most nervous about all of this. I've never asked a woman to be my official girlfriend before, but I hope I did it right. Because I've never felt what I feel for her before.
"I'd love to." She said sincerely, with a little nervous smile on her face.
"Really?" I asked. I couldn't believe my ears. I could even feel my face lighting up involuntarily.
She wants to be my girlfriend. She'd love to.
"Yeah, really." She confirmed her words, making me feel like the luckiest man on this earth.
I smiled again, taking both of her hands in mine on the table. "You just made me the happiest man on earth." I said, my words full of honesty, expressing exactly what I was feeling. I brought one of her hands to my lips and planted a kiss on her knuckles, out of pure joy, relief, and excitement to start a new era with her.
"I love you too, by the way." She smiled warmly, replying to my words from a couple of minutes ago, making my heart flutter.
She loves me. She could've said no to being my girlfriend, and look for a footballer that isn't retired, but she chose me.
She makes me feel like I'm her first choice. And it's the best feeling in the world. Especially because it is coming from her.
Once we left the restaurant, we walked around the nearby streets for some time. The sky was dark already, and the stars were shining. The weather was cooler than in the afternoon, so it was even better.
Vic and I couldn't keep our arms somewhere that wasn't around the other, and our smiles didn't leave our faces. We were both on cloud nine.
I would always be this close to her if I could.
"You know." I spoke at some point while we walked.
"Yeah?" She asked, now looking at me.
"I'm thinking that, if we've been living together since lockdown started, and now we're a couple, I don't see the point in you leaving my place." I admitted.
Which is true. We've basically been living like a couple for the last three months. And honestly, it's been the best three months in a long time for me. Probably some of the best months of my life. I don't want her to leave now that covid restrictions are less strict.
"Are you sure?" She asked. She always needs to make sure I'm serious about what I say. I love the timid look on her face in the cases when she realizes I'm not joking.
