"Okay so, there's snacks in the kitchen if he wants to eat anything. Don't forget to give him a bath and please don't let him persuade into giving him ice cream." She told Selena taking a deep breath. "Give him a bath..."

"At eight and he needs to be in bed by nine. I got it, Tay. Don't worry." Selena giggled, cutting her off and Taylor sighed.

"I'm a mom. I'll always worry." She smiled, taking Adam's hand who was behind her.

"Now go and have fun, lovebirds." Selena smirked, giving her friend a hug, her stomach not really allowing them to have a tight embrace.

Taylor was six months pregnant now and it was getting a lot harder to move around, especially since she was pregnant with twins. They had to cancel a few shows on Taylor's tour because the doctor told her she couldn't do it anymore. Although Taylor was upset that she had let her fans down, she knew they understood and that it meant that the babies were coming soon . They were going out for the night, Adam had convinced her to do it despite the fact that she got tired easily. He felt like she deserved to have a date night, away from their son so she could relax and enjoy as she had been pretty stressed during these past few weeks with getting everything ready for the babies. The doctor warned her that because she was pregnant with twins, it was likely that the babies would come sooner.

"Are you going to tell me where we're going now?" Taylor glanced at Adam, from the passenger seat, smiling.

"I already told you it's a surprise so no." He laughed, grabbing her hand and pressing his lips to the back of it. "Don't worry, love. We'll be there soon."

Minutes later, they were at the beach. He parked the car and walked out before running to her side and helping her out.

"This is the beach where you took me on our first date." She grinned at him as they walked along the beach. She spotted a table with candles lit and looked over at him curiously. "Dinner on the beach, huh?"

"Yep. Let's go." He took her by the hand and led her to the table, pulling the chair out for her and helping her sit down. He sat down in front of her, looking at her like she was the sun, like he always had, like he always would.

He had planned everything out, he hired a cook, a waiter, he thought of everything, even music. They laughed together, talking about the future, the present, even the past although it was bittersweet. They talked about their son and how proud they were of him. The babies were a topic that brought more smiles than any other topic. The fact that they were coming and they would witness them growing made all kinds of happy.

"Okay, what would you say is your favorite thing about me?" Taylor questioned, smiling. They had been asking questions to one another for a while, just for fun.

"Well, your heart. I mean I love everything about you to be honest but if I have to pick a favorite then your heart." He told her, rubbing her hand with his thumb. "Just the way you love others and how you're so kind to people. How you treat you fans, how amazing of a mum you are to Ricky, how much you care. I just I love it and I'm so honored that I get to be loved by you."

"Thank you." She grinned. "Your turn." She said, taking a sip of the orange juice she was having.

"Oh I'll have to think about that. We've asked a lot of questions." He laughed. He took a deep breath. "Okay, I have to ask you this because I love you very much. I've never asked this to anyone before but you're the only one I want to ask this to." He looked into her blue eyes as she furrowed her eyebrows, confused. "You know I love you and that I want to spend the rest of my life with you. We've come a long way ever since we met. You were someone who wasn't looking for anything and I had just gotten out of a relationship but when I saw that night, I swear I had to talk to you. I mean I had seen you before but that night there was just something, I can't really explain it but my god, you looked so beautiful and you smiled and I remember thinking 'I'm screwed'." He laughed, standing up. "The point is I got so caught up in you and then we talked and I asked for your number and we ended up speaking on the phone that night for hours. I could have never imagined the amount of happiness and good things you brought into my life but I'm so grateful for it. So that, is why I need to ask you this." He reached for inside his pocket and took out the little black box he had kept for two weeks, kneeling down in front of her as her eyes filled with tears. "Taylor Alison Swift, I have never loved anyone as much as I love you, so would you please do me the absolute honor of becoming my wife? Will you marry me?" He smiled at her, his green eyes shining as he opened the box to reveal a beautiful yet simple diamond ring.

"Yes! My god, yes! I million times yes!" She laughed, crying as she wrapped her arms around his neck, hugging him close to her. He pulled her away and took her left hand, placing the ring on her finger as she smiled. "I love you, fiancé." She giggled, pressing her lips to his.

"I love you more." He told her, the grin on his face bigger than ever. She took her phone and took a picture of them smiling as she rested her left hand on his chest, she would probably use it later on to tell everyone but for now only family and friends as she sent a picture saying 'I said yes'. They all congratulated them, they knew it was coming someday and they knew it would be soon.

The song playing from the speakers was one of Ed's song, one of Taylor's favorites, 'Tenerife sea'. She grinned at him when it started playing.

"Can I have this dance my love?" He offered his hand which she took and they slow danced. Her face on his shoulder, her arms around his neck as his hands went to her waist, their babies in the middle of them. "They're coming soon. Can you believe that?" He said, moving his hand so he was touching her stomach.

"I know. Soon we won't sleep and we'll have crying babies in the house. It'll be fun, huh?" She raised an eyebrow before laughing. "I can't wait for them to be here although I am so not looking forward to the labor."

"You've done it once, you can do it again." He smiled, kissing her forehead.

"Yeah, except this time it'll be two babies in one day or in minutes." She shook her head. "But it'll be worth it."

"If we end up with more kids, we'll have to buy a new car, but like a minivan, because we won't have space." He cackled, throwing his head back.

"Relax, big boy. I'm about to push two babies out of my vagina, I'm not getting pregnant again anytime soon." She patted his chest, her ring glistening in the moon light as his laughter made her smile.

"You're right but with us you never know. I mean we didn't plan Richard or these babies." He pointed out, while she rolled her eyes. "You know, I always imagined our future but this is beyond my wildest dreams. No pun intended." He told her, kissing her lips.

"I'm really happy that it turned out this way. If you weren't in Nashville in that café, we wouldn't be here and I've never been so glad that Richard is such a clumsy kid. He wasn't looking and he bumped into you. I'm just so glad he did." She giggled, her head on his chest as she listened to his steady heartbeat.

"He's clumsy like his mum." He teased her making her slap his stomach playfully. "Also amazing like his mum."

"Handsome like his dad as well. I can't wait to see what these babies are like." He pulled her a little closer to him.

"I bet they'll be beautiful and smart like you." He spoke softly, swaying their bodies to the song, the sound of the waves crashing in the background as the soft breeze blew. "Taylor?" He called out after the song ended.

"Yeah?" She murmured against his neck.

"We'll be together, right? Forever and always?" He whispered.

"Random but yes." She giggled. "Forever and Always."
