We spent the whole day at the beach. We decided to go get some food for dinner. We both walked to a restaurant and sat at a table.

   " I'll be right back with your drinks."

Then the waiter left.

   " So....Y/n.....why didn't you take the contract deal on singing?"

   " I just didn't feel good enough."

   " You are good enough."

   " How do you know. You've never heard me sing."

   " Not true. "

   " Really? When did I sing then?"

   " Back when you lived on Mystreet I heard you singing when you cooked breakfast that one day. Remember? I stayed the night at your house and I woke up to hear you singing."

The blush came quicker than I thought.

   " Now I remember."

   " You are good enough Y?n. You should have taken the deal."

   " Probably."

   " Here are your drinks what can I get you two to eat?"

   " I'll take F/f."

   " I'll have the same thing."

The waiter left and for the rest of the time Laurence and I talked. Or mainly caught up on what we missed in each other's lives. Once we were done eating he paid for the bill and we left. We started walking back to the house when Laurence stopped walking.

   " Hey, can you stay here for a second?"

   " Sure."

Then he ran to a store and came back with something behind his back.

   " Close your eyes."

I did as he asked and he opened up my hand and set something in it.

   " Open your eyes."

I opened my eyes to see a bouquet of roses.

   " Aww Laurence.."

I hugged him as I held the bouquet. We then walked home. Once we got there I went to take a shower. When I came out in my pajamas I saw Laurence asleep on my bed. I took one last look at the bouquet Laurence gave me and noticed something.

There was a fake flower among the real flowers. Then I remembered his story.

( Flashback )

   " Okay so this guy loved his girlfriend so much, but she had doubts that he didn't love her. So what he did was he went to a flower shop and bought 12 roses. One was fake while the rest were real. He gave them to her and said: I will stop loving you when all these roses die."

   " Aww, that's cute."

   " I know right. You ready to walk home?"

   " Ya. Let's go."

We walked outside and I locked up the cafe. We walked home talking about his story.

( Flashback Over )

   ' Laurence..... you're too sweet to me.'

I set the flowers back down and climbed into bed with Laurence. 

   " I'll always love you too Laurence."

I smiled at his sleeping face. I wrapped my arms around him and he did the same cuddling me. I fell asleep feeling the warmth of his body.

( Laurence's P.O.V. )

She remembered the story. I didn't think she did. I opened one eye and looked down at her sleeping form. I stroked her hair and held her close to me.

   " I love you so much."

Then I let the darkness take me.
