Thirty Nine

Bella's P.O.V

I sat on the chair as I waited. I had a Starbucks drink in my hand since my flight was a little delayed due to some issues.

"You alright?" Bianca asked me.

"Yeah," I nodded.

"Is it because of Collin?" She asked me.

"Kinda. I feel bad on how we left things," I told her.

"I know it's rough but one day, you both will forgive on another," DXander told me.

"One day," I told him.

I heard shouting making me look over at the direction. Xander and Bianca also looked over.

"What the hell is going on?" Bianca asked confused. For a split moment, I thought I heard my name from the shouting.

"I think I'm getting a headache. I thought I heard my name," I told them. I heard it again and again.

"I think I'm going crazy too. I heard your name as well," Xander told me.

"Bella!" I stood up and walked over. I saw Collin, Seth, Melody, and Rosalie rushing over.

"Collin?" I asked. Rosalie saw me first before leading the rest over to me.

"Guys? What are you doing here?" I asked confused.

"Collin has something to say," Seth said before pushing Collin over to me. I looked up at him, waiting for what he had to say.

"Bella, I'm in love with you. I always had and always will be in love with you. No matter what, I'm always going to love you," Collin told me.

"I love you too. Ever since we were kids," I told him.

"I didn't mean what I said from the fight. I just wanted you to go to Paris with a clean slate. Be the best model I know you'll be," Collin told me.

"Collin, I don't want to go anymore. I want to be here with you," I said before wrapping my arms around his waist. Collin hugged me tightly before pulling away so we can look at each other.

"Bella, this is big. I can't hold you back. You should go out and say, I regret doing that. Not, I regret not doing it," Collin told me.

"I still can't leave you," I tell him.

"It's okay. I'm still here," Collin said.

"Flight 287; California to Paris is ready to board," I heard. I looked over before looking up at Collin. Collin cupped my cheeks before giving me a kiss. We kissed for a minute before someone cleared their throat.

"Bella, we have to go now," Xander said.

"I love you," I tell Collin.

"I love you too," He told me.

I felt him put something in my pocket before giving me one more kiss.

"I'll see you when you get back," Collin told me.

"Promise?" I asked holding up my pinky finger.

"Promise," Collin said before intertwining his pinkey finger with mine.

I grabbed my stuff before waving bye to everyone. They waved back as I headed inside. When I sat on the seat, I checked in my pocket to see what Collin had given me. I pulled it out to see a ring box. I opened it to see a promise ring with a note. I opened up the note to read what was inside it.

One day, I'll get down on one knee and ask you to marry me - Collin

I smiled softly before putting it on. I leaned back into my chair as I smiled out the window. Better hold onto that promise Collin.
