[37] UCAs-3

✱ Naima's p.o.v ✱

We're halfway through the show and it has been awesome. Since it's just singers here, the performances has been amazing. Of course there is other people here too, but they are just like Grayson a person that someone else brought.

All the awards are for singers, songwriters and producers so Grayson doesn't really belong here. But he's not the only one, some other models are here too.

One of my songwriters is actually nominated for songwriter of the year and I'm so proud of him. Even if he wins or not, he's still a winner to me. He's the one that has been by my side since the beginning and he's so good, he has written all of my hits.

Speaking of my hits, they are presenting my award now and I'm almost 100% sure that I'm not winning it. The competition is too tough for a rookie like me. I mean, I'm not a rookie but among these stars I am.

After a little speech by the presenters, they read the nominees.

"Ed Sheeran with All for you, Miley Cyrus with My journey, Naima Watson with 1999" as they say my name, a camera comes to me and I smile big before he leaves. "Adele with All I ever wanted and Ariana Grande with Gorgeous"

The nervousness starts to kick in for real now. Grayson grabs my thigh and squeeze it lightly, just to show that he's there for me. 

"The winner in the category album of the year goes to..... Ed Sheeran with all for you!" The presenter yells in the microphone and I start cheering for Ed. He deserves this so much, and I'm genuinely happy for him. He's the reason I'm where I am today, if he wouldn't have let me on his tour I would never be here at all.

I give Ed a quick hug as he pass by me on his way to the stage. He hugs me back before running off to the stage. I sit down beside Grayson again and he smiles towards me.

"Are you okay?" He asks and kisses me on the lips.

"Yeah, if I didn't win I wanted Ed to win the most" I laugh when we pull away and lean myself into his shoulder. And so the evening goes on.

"Babe, I'm gonna leave you alone for a bit. I have to talk to some people" Grayson stands up and gives me a kiss on the cheek. I simply nod and see him walk away towards the back which is extremely weird since the show isn't over yet. Well, I guess all I can do is sit here and keep watching the show.

They give out award after award and I keep thinking about where Grayson's at. He hasn't came back yet, and I'm all alone watching the show. We have the isle seats and the ones that sits beside us is people I don't really know, which is a bit awkward.

"Before we end the show, we have a special message that wants to be said. Everyone welcome Grayson Dolan" I hear the monitor say and I choke on the water I just put in my mouth. What the fudge is he doing on stage? He's not supposed to be there!

And what is the special message? He hasn't mentioned a word about this to me, and he usually tells me everything.

"Hi guys. As you just heard I have a special message that needs to be said. In the audience here tonight sits a beautiful girl that also happens to be the love of my life" what is he doing? His eyes are locked to mine the whole time he's speaking and it makes me shiver.

"Naima Watson, I have known ever since that day Ethan and I first met you on that plane I have known that it was something special with you ever since, and shortly after that I realized what it was. You're freaking amazing and I love you so much, I can't believe I had the privilege to meet you. You turned my whole world upside down in the best way possible and now you're carrying our baby and it all feels so right" his speech makes my eyes water but I wipe the tears away. But I still don't understand why he's saying all this now.

"I know that our journey hasn't always been the easiest, but you have always forgiven me when I was an idiot. Because that's how big your heart is, and I love you to Mars for always taking me back. If you wouldn't be with me, I don't know where I would be today. But I know for a fact that I wouldn't be as happy as I am today. So the meaning with this shitty speech is this question"

I see Grayson getting down on one knee, he pulls out a velvet box from his inner pocket and my hands immediately goes to my mouth. I can't believe that he's about to propose to me, right here, right now. Now I'm not trying to hide the tears anymore, even though a camera is pressed up in my face.

"Naima Reese Watson, will you marry me?" The audience first goes completely silent but then starts cheering. I slowly stand up, my hands still covering my mouth. I lock my eyes with Grayson's and start walking towards the stage, but I soon realize that it's going way to slow.

I begin to run as fast as I can in a long dress and high heels, but I don't care if I get hurt right now. I just want to get to Grayson.

I walk up the stairs to the stage and as soon as I'm standing by him, I jump into his embrace.

"Of course, Grayson Bailey Dolan" I whisper in his ear and he starts twirling me around. He soon lets me down on the ground. He gets down on one knee again and I hold my left hand out. Grayson takes out the beautiful ring again, but to put it on my finger this time.

He slowly slides the ring onto my finger and I can't hold the tears back. I suddenly I realize what we're doing and I start to giggle. He has just proposed to me and I realize that this is all I ever wanted, living my life with Grayson and only Grayson.

When the ring is on my finger, Grayson gets up again and I snake my arms around his neck.

"I love you so much Grayson"
