She's drained (gxg)

Chapter 6

Avery's POV
I just finished setting up the blanket and everything on the rock over looking the ocean and the beach I had put lights up and everything I got in my Audi and drove to Lauren's house I was nervous as hell I knocked on her door mike opened it he let me in he said "she's still getting ready let's have a talk" I nodded we went out back he said "tell me why you deserve my daughter?" I furrowed my eyes I said "that's the thing Mr. Jauregui I don't deserve Lauren no one does and no one ever will deserve her she's independent she doesn't need a man or a woman to make her happy when I first met the girls I liked Lauren but I just didn't think I could make her as happy as she deserved to be I distanced myself from her that's when I started dating Camila and I loved her I did but at the end of the day Lauren was still in the back of my mind and maybe it was the fact that she didn't need anyone to be happy or it was the fact that her eyes would light up talking about the beach or art but it drew me to her to me she's art and everyday she just gets more beautiful even when she just wakes up so no I don't deserve your daughter but I've loved her for a long time and I didn't realize how much until those 3 months I had no one happened and yeah I do I see a future with Lauren one we both want but I'd do anything to make Lauren happy to see that smile on her face everyday and to make sure she's okay completely I want to be that girl that makes her bad days better and the one that makes her say 'my life has changed since I met you' yeah I've never had love from a family but I do know that I do love your daughter that I feel safe around her that her and Shawn are 2 people I know won't hit me your daughters everything to me and I don't know if that will ever change" he smiled at me he pointed behind me I turned around I saw her she had tears in her eyes but I observed her I said "My beautiful princess" she hugged me I held her she said "you mean it?" I said "every word beautiful now we have a date to go to" she nodded mike said "have fun and be careful" I nodded I led her out to the car I started driving I gave her a blindfold I said "put it on please" she chuckled and did we got to the the place and I guided her so she wouldn't fall or trip once we were there I stood behind her and wrapped my arms around her I untied the blindfold and took it off once she opened her eyes she gasped I said "you like it?" She said "I love it so much Avery" I smiled I guided her and we sat down on the blanket with pillows I took out the food we just sat there ate food and talked about everything I stood up I pressed play on my music I said "dance with me?" I held my hand out for her I had a camera set up to talk pictures of us dancing I played the song and we slow danced

Take my hand, take a breath
Pull me close and take one step
Keep your eyes locked on mine
And let the music be your guide

Won't you promise me (now won't you promise me, that you'll never forget)
We'll keep dancing (to keep dancing)
Wherever we go next

It's like catching lightning, the chances of finding someone like you
It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance? (Can I have this dance?)
Can I have this dance?

Take my hand, I'll take the lead
And every turn will be safe with me
Don't be afraid, afraid to fall
You know I'll catch you through it all

And you can't keep us apart (even a thousand miles can't keep us apart)
Cause my heart is (cause my heart is) wherever you are

It's like catching lightning the chances of finding someone like you
It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance? (Can I have this dance?)
Can I have this dance?

Oh no mountains too high and no oceans too wide
Cause together or not, our dance won't stop
Let it rain, let it pour
What we have is worth fighting for
You know I believe, that we were meant to be

It's like catching lightning, the chances of finding
Someone like you (like you)
It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do (way we do)
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better

So can I have this dance? (Can I have this dance?)
Can I have this dance?
And can I have this dance?
Can I have this dance?

I dipped her and brought our lips together we both smiled into the kiss we separated she said "where are you going after high school?" I said "well where are you going love?" She said "Miami U majoring in Art" I said "then I'm staying right here love we had a headquarters here, my brother and sister can grow up here I'm all they know and I can't be to far from you Miami U is only 2 hours away I can visit you anytime I want and that school can't tell me no because my family owns the school" she said "wait really?" I said "yeah after they died I was looking through all the things we own and my parents brought Miami u when I was 14 and remodeled it so you're stuck with me princess" she said "best thing in the world" I said "if we were to get married do you care if it was while you were at college or after?" She said "anything works as long as I'm with you I'm happy sing to me again" I smiled I said "of course princess" I started singing to her

Your hand fits in mine like it's made just for me
But bear this mind it was meant to be
And I'm joining up the dots with the freckles on your cheeks
And it all makes sense to me
I know you've never loved the crinkles by your eyes when you smile
You've never loved your stomach or your thighs
The dimples in your back at the bottom of your spine
But I'll love them endlessly
I won't let these little things slip out of my mouth
But if I do, it's you, oh it's you, they add up to
I'm in love with you and all these little things
You can't go to bed without a cup of tea
Maybe that's the reason that you talk in your sleep
And all those conversations are the secrets that I keep
Though it makes no sense to me
I know you've never loved the sound of your voice on tape
You never want to know how much you weigh
You still have to squeeze into your jeans
But you're perfect to me
I won't let these little things slip out of my mouth
But if it's true, it's you, it's you, they add up to
I'm in love with you and all these little things
You never love yourself half as much as I love you
You'll never treat yourself right darling but I want you to
If I let you know, I'm here for you
Maybe you'll love yourself like I love you oh
I've just let these little things slip out of my mouth
Because it's you, oh it's you, it's you they add up to
And I'm in love with you (all these little things)
I won't let these little things slip out of my mouth
But if it's true, it's you, it's you they add up to
I'm in love with you, and all your little things

I had cupped her cheek while singing I was rubbing my thumb over her cheek she had leaned into my hand and held it there she sighed in happiness I kissed her her forehead I just pulled her closer and held her to me she laid her face in my neck I just swayed us side to side and hummed quietly she just held onto me I said "I knew I loved you the day I met you I may have met all of you at same time but you were the one I couldn't keep my eyes off but I knew I couldn't make you happy at the time so I distanced myself from you that was when I got with Camila and she helped me for forget I loved her I did but nothing compared to what I felt when I looked at you and those 3 months away from you weren't hard because you weren't there but you're still all I could think about I fell for the little things of you and you terrified me because my parents always told me I wasn't worth the love or no one could love me and for so long I believed they were right but I couldn't handle being without you any longer the day you came to apologize I knew I needed to kiss you before it was to late and god am I glad I did I love you Lauren so fucking much and it scares me to death it terrifies me that I feel this way because I'm terrified to lose you that's my biggest fear waking one day and you aren't there anymore I know it's a long shot and I know you're gonna wanna know everything my parents did but I'll take the chance so Lauren Michelle Jauregui will you be my girlfriend?" She looked up at me she said "No matter how long it takes for you to tell me, no matter if we fight, and no matter what happens I'm yours and you're one I don't give up it's us only us I promise of course I'll be your girlfriend I love you princess!" I kissed her she kissed back and my thoughts were 'she's my fucking world no one else'
