               2 Weeks Later

"Baby wake up" I heard a voice whisper in my ears and shortly after came a kiss.

I rolled on my side trying to go back to sleep but to no avail, I heard his voice again.

"Ari please wake up"

"Why?? We stayed up until 3 this morning"

"And now it's 12 in the afternoon and plus remember that since today is the last day we planned to spend the day at the beach then have dinner" Aaron kissed my neck.

"Fine, I'm up I'm up" I started to get out of bed when I heard banging on the door.

"Ari I hope your ass is up because we are leaving in 30 minutes and you better be ready" I heard Anna's voice outside the door.

"Oh shit!!" I jumped up quickly, running to the bathroom.

"Pack my beach bag for me and look for something for me to wear also!!" I yelled out, I got into the shower and took only 15 minutes before popping back out.

I rushed back into the room grabbing the bikini and clothes Aaron placed on the bed for me before going back to the bathroom, which only took me 5 minutes to get ready.

"Here, I made you a glass of smoothie now let's go, your bag is already in the car", I took the smoothie and followed Aaron outside to see the others are there too.

"Good mornings guys," I said once I got nearer to them, I received back a series of 'good mornings' before we got into our cars.

Since we didn't feel like going to the beach behind the hotel, we found another beach which was an hour drive.

"This tastes really good," I said sipping on the smoothie.

"You're welcome" Aaron smiled at me.

"So did you like your 2 weeks vacation??" he asked.

"I loved it" I grinned.

I really did, it was a great way for me and Aaron to spend quality time together, we took the time to really get to know each other on a deeper level and I loved it, the sexual tension is there but he understands that I'm not ready as yet.

"Good", I nodded my head before continuing to drink my smoothie.

Our drive consisted of small talk and before we knew it we arrived at the beach, I got out of the car and took off the dress before grabbing my beach bag along with Aaron's towel.

I waited on the others and we headed down to the beach finding an area on the sand that had some shade.

"The water looks nice" I commented.

"Yes, it does" Dante agreed nodding his head.

"So what time are we going for dinner??" I asked.

"7, and since it's 1 now we'll leave here at 4 so that we can reach back at the hotel by 5 and get ready then leave" Anna answered.

"Sounds like a plan" I nodded my head, I relaxed on the sand since I didn't really want to get in the water as yet.

The others were in the water except for me and Anna, we stayed on the sand and talked.

"So... You and Aaron had sex yet??" Anna asked me bluntly.

"God Anna!! No!!"

"Let me rephrase that, are you planning on having sex with him?"

"Yes but I'm not sure when, I'll let the heat of the moment determine that", she just nodded her head.

I decided it was time for me to head into the water since it's now 3:30.

"So now you want to get in the water?? When it's almost home time??" Luca asked.

"Problem??".

"Nope".

"Yeah, that's what I thought".

I made the water stop at my thighs since I didn't want to get wet, just swaying in the water shortly after I felt hands come around my waist.

"Did I ever tell you how beautiful you are??"

"Yes, every day".

"Good and I'll never stop telling you".

"Come on guys let's go!!", Anna yelled signifying it was time to go, we got out of the water, drying off my legs I pulled on my dress and packed up my stuff before heading to the car.

I got into the driver's seat and waited until everyone was ready, Aaron got in and I started the car and drove off.

At exactly 5 we made it back to the hotel and went straight to our rooms to get ready for dinner, since I didn't get wet today I just looked for something to wear while Aaron went to take a shower.

30 minutes later he came out of the bathroom in only a pair of boxers his toned body on view.

To say that my mouth didn't get watered would be a lie, I shook my head to clear all dirty thoughts before deciding to get and get ready.

I got ready and did my hair before putting on my shoes, I went into the living room and waited for the others.

Around 6:15 everyone was ready, so we made our way downstairs and towards our cars.

The restaurant was only a 20 minutes drive so we arrived at 6:45, the host took us to a 6 seater table before giving us menus and telling us that a waiter will be with us soon.

And as promised a waiter came to us and we gave him our orders and he told us he'll be back in 25 minutes.

We had light conversation about anything and everything we could think of and exactly 25 minutes later the waiter came back with our food.

Halfway through eating, I heard Aaron clear his throat looking towards him I saw that he had a bit of sweat on his forehead and upper lip.

"Are you ok??" I asked him taking my napkin to wipe away the sweat, he looked slightly pale and as if he was going to throw up.

"Yeah, I'm fine," he said sounding a bit nervous, he got up and walked outside before coming back and going down on one knee in front of me.

"A-A-Aaron what are you doing??" I stuttered.

"Ari, I know our relationship started under weird circumstances but there is not a day that goes by that I regret how we met, I know we've only known each other for a couple of months but to me, it feels like I've known you all my life, you've grown on me and for that I'm grateful. You are beautiful both inside and outside and for that I love you so much, I'll never get tired of waking up in the mornings to your beautiful face, you are my heart, my soul, and my whole world Ari, so I ask you now, will you, Shai Arianna Grace do me the honor of becoming my wife??", I sat there shocked out of my mind, never had I thought I'll see this day. Mustering up a most suitable voice I replied.

"No", I saw pure shock wash over his face.

"Of course I will marry you, Aaron!!" I grinned feeling tears roll down my face.

He slipped the ring onto my finger before pulling me into a hug then kissing me, the whole restaurant erupted with cheers.

"Congratulations Ari!!" Anna and Lilli yelled simultaneously.

"Congratulations Ari!!" Anna and Lilli yelled simultaneously
