Grace POV:

I roll out of bed, half asleep and fall on the floor. "What time is it?" I yawn as I check my phone. Crap, it's 12. I get up a look in the mirror. I'm wearing an XL sweatshirt with sleep shorts and a messy bun. I put on my slippers and go downstairs to try and sneak in a coffee before the boys get here. when I get to the floor I hear Mary say,

"Look who decided to wake up," I look at the couch to see Mary, Nash, Matt, taylor, and of course cam. "Morning sleepy head!" Shit. buddy jumps off cams lap and runs to me as cam walks over.

"Well this is embarrassing." I say as I bend down to pick up buddy.

"It's about time," cam smirks, "not embarrassing though, very cute." I blush as I head over to the kitchen. Cam follows and sits at the counter as I make myself a bowl of cereal. "Fruit loops, interesting choice. I respect it"

"I'm glad you approve" I joke while shoving a bit in my mouth. I go to sit next to him. "So, what do you want to do today?"

"Funny you ask," Cam starts, walking over to a bag by the front door. He grabs it and starts walking back to me, continuing saying, "I know we don't know each other that well, but I really want to get to know you better so," he pulls out a big bouquet of pink tulips, " will you please go out on a date with me?" I was overjoyed. 

"Cam you are so sweet." I beamed. "I would love to!" I gave him a hug and he told me he will come back later to pick me up. I'm so excited to spend some one on one time with cam. I can feel it's going to be a good night.

Cameron POV:

It's 7:00 pm and I pull up to Grace's house. I knock on the door, anxious to see her. 

"Hey cam!" She opens the door and my jaw drops. She looks gorgeous. I feel butterflies in my stomach, a feeling I've never felt before. "You clean up nice" she gives her infamous wink. It gets me every time.

"You look amazing, as always" I smile and walk her to the passenger side of my car and open the door for her. We drive to Long  Street by the beach with many shops and restaurants. We pull up to one restaurant. I escort her inside and we sit at our table. We eat and laugh and it all just feels so right. I know she is special and I want to make her mine. 

We walk to the street along the boardwalk and stroll down, hand in hand, just enjoying the moment. We reach the end near a big tree and I know it's time. I stop and grab a big bouquet of pink flowers I set under the tree earlier and grab her hand with my free hand. 

"Grace," I nervously start, "I know we haven't known each other that long, but I feel like I've known you for a lifetime. From the moment I met you I knew I wanted to be with you. Will you do me the honor of being my girlfriend?" 

Grace POV: 

I was speechless. I did not see this coming at all but I'm so glad it did. I think I really love Cam and can't wait to start a relationship together. 

"Yes!" I smiled, I was so happy, "Cam, I love you." 

"I love you too." He beamed, relieved. And then he kissed me for the first time. I hate to be cliche , but it felt like I was flying. Cam makes me feel like I'm the only girl in the world. I love him so much, 

He picks me up bride style and I'm laughing hysterically as we head back to the car. As we cross the street, he dips me and I feel like I'm on cloud 9. This has been the best day of my life.
