emmas pov

as i waited for ethans car to pull up, i played with my ring to get out my nervous energy. why was i so nervous? it's just ethan. then i saw him pull up outside of my house and my heart almost exploded out of my chest.

"hey baby" he said as i opened the front door.

"where are you taking me?" i demanded playfully.

"oh you'll see" he said leaning in and rubbing my nose with his.

"i hate you" i said pushing him away, but laughing at the same time.

"let's go" he said, and took my hand to walk outside.

i got inside his car and sitting on the passenger seat was roses.

"ethan-you didn't-" i said.

"oh i did" he said smirking.

"you're too sweet" i said, picking up the roses and placing them in the back seat.

ethan began to drive and i was thinking of all the places he could be taking me. philz? no. skydiving? i hope not. i couldn't think of a single place.

suddenly we were pulling up to a hill as the sun was setting. he looked at me, smiled, placed his hand on my thigh, and said "well what do you think?"

"of what? this mound of grass?" i asked.

"i thought you'd say that," he said smiling,
"come on we're not quite there yet."

"jesus where are you taking me ethan? to kill me?" i asked.

"you wish." he said, playfully pulling me up the hill.

as we reached the top i suddenly realized what was happening. i covered my mouth with my hand and tried not to cry.

"ethan if you make me cry im gonna have to put it on my Instagram story and then everyone's gonna know we're dating" i said, laughing and whining at the same time.

"oh come here" he said, tucking me into his arms and holding me close.

"you brought me to watch the stars, you romantic little bitch" i said, smiling.

"you want me to make it more romantic?"he asked, placing his hand on my face and rubbing my cheek with a finger.

"oh no you wrote something didn't you?" i asked, preparing myself to cry again.

he took out a piece of paper from his pocket.

"emma francis chamberlain, ever since the day i fist met you, i loved you. i didn't tell you then, but i couldn't stop staring at you. you are so beautiful, and then you started talking and i almost yelled 'i love you' right then. so i took you here tonight because you remind me of the stars. so beautiful and radiant. always there even if we can't see it. a shimmering ball of light. you are my star, emma."

i just sat there. i was crying because ive never met someone so perfect.

"holy shit, ethan."

"im in love with you emma." he said, leaning in close.

"im in love with you ethan." i said, and then closed the space between us.
