cheeks hurt from too much smiling and giggling .banter was playfully thrown back and forth between us throughout the whole podcast .that whole experience has confirmed for me what was already known .

travis is the love of my life .

as we wrapped up the end of the podcast and said our goodbyes to jason ,we stole a cheeky kiss as my eyes fluttered up into his green ones.all our emotions being conveyed without a words being uttered .
——-
"Sorry about all the confetti brandon "I giggled ,grinning at travis .

"Always leaving it to the intern to clean up the mess "He joked back playfully .

Travis'warm hands swallowed mine as he gently dragged me to the hallway,allowing us some privacy after the eyes on us for so many hours .The echoes of our laughs surrounded us and we found as secluded spot near the kitchen .Immediately ,the warmth from his hands spread onto my cheeks as he held my face and gently pressed his lips against mine .Just repeatedly pecking my lips whilst whispering praise for doing the podcast ."Your so great at just talking and ...just ..being real and being you "He whispered after his lips finally left mine .Shyness took over me as i peeked up at him .

"Thank you baby ..and thank you for being my pretty little helper "I cheekily grinned .He did that smirk that i love .

"Anytime sweetie "He smiled proudly .God that grin .The way his eyes crinkle as a smile takes over his face gives me butterflies still 2 years later .I have a sneaky feeling that it will forever .

Resting my head on his chest ,i heard his heart beating increasing faster ."You okay baby ?your hearts beating really fast "I gently asked ,rubbing my hands over his chest with sympathetic eyes staring up at him .

He quickly put a reassuring hand over mine ."Just a little nervous about the podcast is all ..i hope it was everything you wanted it to be "He softly traced my cheek with the back of his hand .I grinned once again and chuckled .

"You're so adorable-it was everything i could have asked for and more "I took his hand off my cheek and traced his palm with my lips .

"Good .How about you go and get ready for dinner and we can have a little walk around the garden before we leave ?"He asked shyly .I was confused at his nervousness .I had never seen this guy nervous in my whole time of knowing him .

"Y-Yeah okay ...that sounds lovely honey "I hesitantly said as he kissed my head .

travis' pov :

The ring in my shorts pocket felt immediately heavier as i watched taylor skip up the staircase .Quickly ,i power walked to the window closet to me and pulled back the curtain slightly ,just peeking out .It looked like the last of the flowers were being set up .The flower patterned curtains that taylor had picked out blocked the view again as i leaned up again the wall next to it -trying to keep myself in check.

you've got this .
she's going to say yes .
of course she's going to love it -you know her .

A deep gust of air spilled into my lungs as i gathered my thoughts and headed into the kitchen to pour our wine .White .Just how taylor likes it .I grabbed the glasses from the top shelf and added a couple ice cubes before pouring the expensive savingon blanc into the glasses .Taking a lengthy sip of mine as i heard taylor descending again .

All my worries dissolved as i watched her come around the corner .She always seemed to have that effect on everyone she met .Her aura is like a warm blanket -gently soothing all my worries and insecurities .I made a large step toward her and captured her into a hug ,which she quickly returned .

"You sure everything is okay baby ?"She whispered as she ran her freshly manicured fingernails up and down my back .

"I'm sure ..i just love you so much honey "I  sighed ,burying my nose into her lavender scented hair .

"I love you too"She smiled .
——————————————
We clasped hands as we wondered through our sizeable garden .Instinctively chatting about everything and nothing all at once .When we reached the place where i had planned ,i could see the exact moment on her face that her suspicions were confirmed .She broke out into a gleeful smile and tears reflected on her deep eyes .

"T-Travis ..."She whispered into the sea of flowers .

I grabbed our glasses ,setting them on a bench beside us before falling to my knee before her .My woman .

"Taylor ...iv been waiting to do this since the moment you gave me a chance and agreed to go out with me .I knew from the moment i saw you laugh at one of my jokes for the first time that we would get here eventually .I can't wait to attempt to show you for the rest of our lives how much you mean to me ...i'm going to try everyday to make you feel as lucky as i feel.So please ...take a chance on me and let me prove to you how much i love you "I confessed .tears falling from my chin as i held out the custom made ring to her .

She paused for a brief second ,a stray tear falling from her beautiful visage .

"Travis .Iv never loved anymore as much as i love you ...and id be honoured to be your wife .Yes .Yes i'll marry you !"She grinned ,wiping her face and holding her empty hand out .slowly . I slipped the gold ,hand crafted ring onto her finger . A perfect fit .Just like us .

She grabbed my head .Attempting to pull me up to her as she stared deep into my soul .She had this way of reading my mind with just a look as she immediately slammed her lips onto mine and threw her arms around my neck .I quickly reciprocated as we captured eachother's lips in an unspoken promise .

When we finally broke apart ,i uttered "I get to marry my best friend"as she giggled and rested her forehead against mine .

"You'll never guess ...so do i "she grinned .
