Aaron POV
I wake up to the most beautiful girl beside me. God I can't wait to make her my wife. Speaking of that earlier this week Kian,Alex,Jc,and I went ring shopping.
Flashback
"Whew its a big day" Kian says
"Tell me about it" Aaron says
"Come on guys got this" Alex says patting my back
"That's easy for you to say. You're not the one looking for engagement rings" Kian says sarcastically
"Yeah but I had to do this once"
"It was easy for you, she gave you hints"
"True, True"
"Hey I still believe in you guys" Jc says from behind us
"Thanks Jc"
"Quick question" Jc says
"What is it"
"Why did you guys invite us" Kian and I both face palm
"Because we wanted to bring our best friends for support"
"Oh I knew that"
"Clearly you didn't"
End of flashback
We ended up getting these two ringsThe pink one is the one Kian got for Nessa. The purple one is the one I got for Roni. I really hope she likes it. I decide to go out side and stick my feet in the water while I wait for Roni to wake up. I throw on my Trueimg shirt and sit on the edge of the wooden walkway. I gaze of into the view then I start to gaze off into my thoughts.
Flashback
"We already have most of the process done" I say "don't stress it do"
"You have a way better relationship with him then I do. What if he says no"
"He would never say no to someone that makes his daughter happy"
"Ok man what ever you say" We were on our way to go ask Paul for permission for his daughters hand in marriage. We pulled up in front of the house. We walk in. The girls were out shopping. We knock on his office door.
"Come in"
"Hey Mr. Merrell"
"Hello boys"
"Can we talk to you for a second"
"Let me guess is it about my daughters hand in marriage"
"How did you know"
"I had a feeling"
"I can give Aaron an automatic yes. Kian can I talk to you for a sec" I could see the beads of sweat dripping from Kian's forehead. I was called next
"Aaron I gave you an automatic yes because of everything you done for my family. I've seen you treat my nephew like your own family. I've seen you care for my daughter. I've seen you risk your life for both of my daughters. I just want to thank you so much for everything. I mean it from the bottom of my heart. You will always be a part of the family no matter what. Welcome to the family"
"Thank you" we hug
End of Flashback
I snap out of my thoughts when Roni sneaks behind me. I pick her up and twirl her around. When I put her down she kisses my forehead, my left cheek, then right cheek, my nose, then my lips.
"Switching up the order this time" I say smiling
"You have to be different every once in a while plus I think I like this order better"
"I like it to" I pick her up bridal style and catty her back into the cabin. We admire the sunrise for a little.
"I don't know about you but I'm hungry" I say
"Me too" she says
"Good thing there's a great breakfast spot right in front of our hut"
"Oh I forgot about that"
"You wanna wall there and get some breakfast"
"Sure but let me change out of my pajamas first"
"Ok" She goes in the bathroom and changes into some clothes. When she gets out we walk to the breakfast place while holding hands. She orders French toast and I get pancakes.
"So what are we doing today" She ask while sipping her coffee
"Well I was thinking of doing some swimming and you have a spa treatment at 4:00 then we can do whatever you want"
"Awwww"
"What"
"You got me a spa treatment"
"I mean you deserve it you need some time to relax"
"I love you"
"I love you too" We talk for a couple minutes then the waiter delivers our food. We eat then we go back to our hut.
"Hey lets call Kian and Nessa and see what they're doing"
"Ok" We call them but no answer
"I guess they're busy"
"I have an idea of what they're doing" We both look at each other and shake the thought out of heads.
"What about our other favorite couple" Roni ask
"Laurex?"
"No Shrek and Fiona" She says sarcastically
"Ok,ok" I giggle she smiles. We call them. No answer either.
"Oh that's right they did say they had wedding planning today"
"Oh I forgot"
"Hey we can go swimming now"
"Ok" she says and we both go and change I walk outside and wait for her. When she comes out we start to swim. I get some GoPro shots then put the camera up. We stand on the walkway and look out. I pick her up and twirl her
"1......"
"Aaron no"
"2......"
"Don't do it"
"To late" I toss her in the water
"I'm going to get you back"
"Not if you can't catch me" I dive in the water and swim. She's chasing after me. She finally catches up.
"Gotcha" She says and jumps on my back
"Dang it" I carry her up to the surface and place her on the wooden platform. I lean in and kiss her. She wraps her arms around my neck. I wrap mine around her waist. I pick her back up while still kissing her. Our heads moving in sync as we kiss. I enjoy the taste of her tropical strawberry flavored kisses. Each time it taste different. It taste like what I'm feeling at that moment. The kiss just changed taste. I can't describe this one. It just taste like her. I guess I'm just feeling her. It lasted for awhile. When I put her down. I could see the smirk on her face.
"I would love to keep making out but I think You're going to be late to the spa"
"Oh shoot I forgot" She gets up and gets dressed.
"Bye babe" She says and kisses me
"Bye love you"
"Love you too" She walls out. I start to think about tomorrow. Tomorrow is the day I'm going to propose. Sunday is our last day here. Saturday is our second to last. That's why I chose Saturday. Tomorrow we will go have breakfast, swim, Then get dressed for dinner. After dinner we will walk out on the beach then I will propose. That sounds good. The only thing that can go wrong is if she says no. She won't say no right? What if she does say no? This is why I don't think about things like this. I freak out. I never get this nervous. So why am I nervous? I really wish I had someone to vent this out to. Normally I would vent it out to Roni but now I can't, it'll ruin the surprise.
"All right Aaron breath in" I say to myself. I calm myself down. I'm just going to order some food. Hmmm... it's 4:30. Dang I just had a thirty minute self destruct. Oh they have Uber eats here. I order pho 🍲. One for me and one for Roni. Ok. Now to just sit and wait. Actually I can edit. I start on a video titled Bora Bora day one. I put in some of the footage of us on the plan. Then I put in some video of us swimming. Ok that was an action backed vlog. I press upload and it has a two hour wait. I put my computer to the side. Oh it's 5:01. Roni should be here any minute now and so should our food. Just as I think that Roni walks in the door
"Hey bae"
"Hey. How was your session"
"It was so relaxing"
"I'm glad you liked it"
"Thank you"
"No problem"
"I ordered us some food"
"Ooo I love food"
"I know that's why I ordered it"
"You know me so much well"
"Come on your my best friend of course I know you"
"You're the best"
"I know" She rolls her eyes and opens the door for the delivery guy. We get our food and eat. We call Lauren and Alex. Alex is dropping way to many hints that I'm proposing. Lauren keeps elbowing him. Then we call Kian and Nessa. They don't pick up.
"Wow Nessa is to busy for her own sister"
"Aww don't say that"
"I was only joking Aaron"
"Ok ok"
"I'm getting kinda tired"
"Me too" She goes and gets changed. I get a text from Kian. Sorry I didn't pick up. I didn't know if you proposed yet. I did and I didn't want Roni to see to ruin the surprise.
No problem dude. I'm doing it tomorrow.
Wow Kian did that fast. When Roni finishes changing I change. We lay down and watch some TV.
"I brought someone with me" Roni says
"Huh" She lays the hedgehog plush I got her on my shoulder.
"I feel like Alex"
"Hey I only put one on you"
"Please don't say you have more"
"No. But I would love some more" She says winking. I think that's a hint.
"When we get back to LA you can get as many stuffie as you want"
"Really!!!"
"Yes really"
"OMG"
"I'm tired"
"Let's go to bed"
"Good night bae"
"Good night"
"Love you"
"Love you too" she wraps her arms around my torso. I kiss her forehead and she snuggles up with me. She falls asleep. It's something about her warmth that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Next thing I know I'm asleep. I wake up the next morning. The hotel delivered complimentary breakfast. I make us both a cup of coffee. I see her wake up
"Good Morning beautiful"
"Good morning handsome"
