MATT's P.O.V.

For the past three months, the mornings have been my favorite time of the day .I have  been a morning person for my entire life, unlike her. She likes to sleep in. So ever since we have been living together i make sure to keep loud sounds at minimum so i don't wake her up. I like to be the one who  wakes her up every morning with a morning kiss. I also  take my time to admire her beauty. Her brown hair flared on her pillow, and her closed eyes which are the prettiest shade of green  are framed with long, dark lashes, and her tanned skin is  smooth and soft, her pink lips slightly open awaiting for my kiss.  
I gently place my large hand on her  smaller one. Her nails are painted with a light blue color. 
I trace my fingers along her skin up to her cheeks, cupping them and connecting my lips with her's. Her eyes snap open at my touch and they look into mine. A smile appears on her face and i can't help but smile in return. We wish each other good morning. I find her sleepy voice  so attractive. After she kisses me again, we get up to get ready for work. And just when I think she couldn't be any more beautiful she somehow manage to do it.They way her clothes hug her body so perfectly, and her styled  hair  frame her face makes her look so grown up and serious but still with hint of a young and sweet girl that i fell in love with. Hard.
There is nothing much cuter in this world than her doing her little "happy" dance while we ate our breakfast. And thank God, we work at the same place cause i am not sure that i will be able to last a day without seeing her face.
Right now i am in my dad's office ready to tell him big news.
I take some time to find a right words to tell him as he looks through some papers.
But when he looks at me too see what i have to say i skipp straight to the point.

"I am going to propose to Izzy."

I guess that he didn't expect that because he  just stares at me. I take a small red box out of  my suit  and open it. Inside on  the silky black material is a ring  i bought two days ago. I planed on proposing to her on the day I bought this beautiful silver ring but i wanted to ask her to marry me in a special way. She deserves much more. So i had planed things out and i had to tell my father about this. I know he likes her. Who wouldn't. And i know that he would be happy for us, and i will feel less nervous after sharing it with him. 
He takes a  small box from my hand and examine it.

"This is a nice one. I am sure she would like it."

He gets out of his chair and walks to me with his arms open, waiting for me to hug him.
I stand up as well and wrap my arms around him. We have  always had a close relationship, but we have become even closer after my other passed away from cancer.
"I am so happy for you, Matt and proud. You choose the right person and i know she will say yes. She loves you. "
"Thanks dad. But i still  need to make sure i planed everything out perfectly."
"And what is your plan exactly?"
"You know that she likes to go to the beach and that we are spend a lot of our time there..."

He nods  his head as he carefully listens  to me.

"So i thought that that  would be the perfect place to propose to her. But before that i am going to take her out for dinner  where ever she wants to go and once we get to beach there will be a decorated area especially set up for us. I first thought about hiring someone to do decorating cause we all know i am not good at things like that but i decided that it doesn't really matter how it looks as long as it is done with love, so that is why i will be doing the decorating myself. There would also be our favorite drinks and desserts because she loves them."

He smiled again.

"I see  you got your romantic side from me."

I gave him a questioning look and he looks at me all offended. 
We talk about it for some time, he gives me some ideas and he tels me how he proposed to my mom in a similar way. And i always looked up at them and always wanted to be just like my dad.  I had also always wished to have true love like they did, and now i have it.
I then went to buy everything for decorating. I had told Izzy that i have a business lunch so she doesn't suspect anything. 
I made sure to leave a note on our bed for her to read it. To inform her that she needs to put on a red dress that i had bought just for this occasion and i told her that she must wait for me to pick her up.
And now it is just two hours before i ask her to marry me.
