It's been exactly five months that you and Martin have been dating. You had met in a night club in Amsterdam, ever since that you haven't had the chance to visit him in this wonderful city anymore.
It's april and you currently have holidays, this is why you decide to visit Martin in his hometown.

It's been a long day. You and Martin woke up early in the morning to meet Martin's parents for breakfast. Luckily you get along well with them, both have immediately accepted you as a part of their family, so you like them a lot. After the tasty breakfast you walked around the town, which was amazing to you.
You've locked Amsterdam in your heart, you can even imagine moving to this city someday.

It is around 10pm when you come home. Together you start watching a movie, but you feel so tired that you unwillingly fall asleep.

*Amsterdam, 2:14AM*
Mellow tones sound in the flat.
The harmonic, but yet sad melody wakes you up, opening your eyes you find yourself lying in the bedroom. You can only remember that you fell asleep in the living room, Martin must have brought you to the bedroom.
Listening to the unknown beautiful song you remember that Martin once told you that he plays the guitar. Though you could continue sleeping you stand up and leave the bedroom. You have never seen him playing the guitar before, that's what you finally want to do.

Quietly you tiptoe your way through the hallway, trying to figure out where the melody sounds from. Following the music your search ends in the living room, which gets illuminated by a floor lamp. The skyline of Amsterdam by night catches your eye, enjoying the moment you stay at the same place and stare out of the huge window.
The light-flooded city looks even bigger by night, here you feel like in paradise.
As the last few notes fall silent you look around to find Martin sitting on the couch with a guitar.
"Wow this was beautiful.", you say staring out of the window, admiring the magnificent view your boyfriend has from his penthouse.
"Oh I didn't want to wake you up.", Martin apologizes.
"No, it's okay. I always wanted to hear you playing the guitar. Can I hear one more song?", you ask smiling, facing him now.
"Uhm yeah, there is this one song that always reminds me of you."
"Really? Which one?", you look at him in surprise, you've never thought that a song would be reminding him of you.
"I am sure you know it.", he says and focuses on the guitar again.
Soft notes fill the room, after the first six notes have been played you realize that it's the song "Chasing cars" by Snow Patrol.

"We'll do it all
Everything
On our own"
A littly bit shy you start singing to the melody along, in a moment you catch Martin raising his gaze to look at you.
A smile curled on his lips, making your heart skip a beat.
Hearing Martin playing such a romantic song surprises you. Usually you would only hear him playing electronic music, seeing this different side of him excites you.
There is so much you don't know about him yet, but it's an incredible feeling to get to know the person better.
The person behind all those pictures in the media. The true Martin Garrix, who slowly shows the real him to you.

With a smile you listen to Martin playing the last few notes of this wonderful song.
Three years ago, when you still went to high school, you used to listen to this song.
You almost forgot about it, but Martin just brought back all those emotions you've felt when you listened to this song. Now you realize, how much you still love it. It's one of those rare songs, that would always have a meaning to you.

"You are really good at playing the guitar, I wouldn't have expected that.", you say after a moment of silence.
"Thank you, but I also didn't know, that you can sing so well. Your voice is beautiful.", he smiles and gently places the guitar on the couch. You eyes watch him standing up and approaching you. Only some inches separate the two of you, you can feel his hands on your waist, pulling you closer to him.
"I know this sounds weird, but I am so happy to have you.", Martin says and presses his forehead against yours.
"Me too.", you respond surprised, your heart melts at his cute confession.
Butterflies flying in your stomach you cup Martin's soft face and take a moment to scan his blue-grey eyes, which resemble an ocean on a sunny calm day. Your heart rate slows down at the sight of his beautiful eyes.
"I know sometimes those words aren't honest enough, but I love you. And I really mean it.", he speaks while running his hand through your hair. You look at Martin in disbelief.
What did I do to make him be so romantic?

"I love you too.", you smile and pull him closer to you, locking your lips in a passionate kiss, that makes you want to stay in this moment for an eternity.
