Coffee and Bagels.
The perfect way to start off your day. Well, to me at least. I came to the same coffee shop everyday, observing the busy streets of Los Angeles, and a boy. The same boy would catch my attention, sitting in the middle of the shop.
...
After a long car ride, which in reality was only 30 minutes, we finally arrive at the Griffin Observatory.
I instantly grow confused, wondering what we were doing here.
I stay quiet, following Emilio, his hand once again in mine.
He leads me to the side of the building, instead of inside which was weird.
As we reach to a gate, and a patch of grass, but there was more if you were to go straight and go around the corner.
Emilio stops in his tracks, turning to face me, giving me one last cheeky smile, before leading me into the grass.
He walks beside me through the gate, his arm around my waist as he leads me in.
When we walk in through the gate, and turn the corner.
My mouth instantly drops in shock, seeing the whole city of Los Angeles, the lights lit up everywhere. In the grass patch I see a table set up like our past date, but with rose pedals scattered across the floor.
I look at Emilio to see him looking at me expectantly, waiting for my reaction.
"This is amazing! You did all of this?" I ask, pointing to the scenery and the setup.
"Yeah." He says simply, leading me to the table, pulling my chair out and having me sit. "I know that we both like more simpler things, so I decided to just order pizza, if that's okay with you?" He says, as the pizza deliverer brings out a pizza from Pizza Hut.
"I just hope you got cheese filled cr-" I instantly end my sentence as I see Emilio smirking at me as he picks up a slice and places it on my plate.
"I know you Flor." He chuckles, as he grabs a slice for himself.
"Flor, do you remember the first time we met?" I hear Emilio ask, as he places his slice of pizza down, looking in my eyes.
A smile comes to my face as I instantly remember the time I had walked into the coffee shop, sat down and saw that it was only me and him inside the shop.
"Yeah," I whisper, continuing, "The coffee shop." I finish, looking up at him, seeing the happiness floating around in his blue eyes.
"I remember I would always see you, and just hope you wouldn't catch me staring, because you were just so damn beautiful I couldn't keep my eyes off of you. You had caught my eye and ever since that day, I have been talking in love with you more and more. I'm not able to contain how I feel anymore, and I love all these dates we go on but," I see his slightly shaky hand come in contact with mine, holding it, slightly rubbing his thumb over my finger, "I want to make this official, you and me, together. Rose Amor, will you be my girlfriend?"
As he finished the last sentence, he pulls out a familiar turquoise box, and opens it, revealing a beautiful heartshaped necklace.

I gasp in response, absolutely at a lost for words.
I just quickly nod in response, jumping out of my chair and hugging him.
I was straddling him on his lap, but I didn't care. This boy made me so happy, and I was at my happiest with him. He was everything I wanted, and need. I could already tell, our future together, would be perfect.
"Yes yes! I'll be your girlfriend!" I exclaim excitedly, passionately kissing him.
After I kiss him, I look into his blue orbs, seeing pure bliss and adoration.
"One last thing," He says, as he brings the box up in between us, "I got this for you, so you could always have with you my heart, my heart that I had been protecting, until you came into my life. You came and stole my heart. I know it's cheesy but still." He explains, his cheeks growing rosy as he looks down, then looks up at me.
"Emi, you didn't have to get me anything, just having you here with me is enough." I say as I put the box down, looking at him in the eyes.
"I know princesa, but I wanted to. I would do anything for you." He holds my face, his warm hand holding my cheeks, bringing them closer to my face, pecking my lips softly.
"This is called the Open Heart Pendant." He describes, pulling out the necklace and showing it to me.
"Because if you look, the heart is open, just like mine is for you. It is fully open for anytime you need me, and for me to love you until the day I die."
