After I return from my walk, I rummage through the fridge looking for a ginger ale whilst popping pop corn when Jace walks in

"Hey" he mutters.

And I ignore him

"Are you still mad at me?" He asks, with a hopeful voice, praying I'll say no.

No shit Sherlock

"I created something for us in the lounge at the roof area. Wanna come see?" He asked and I smile to my face. My back facing him ad I take out the pop corn and throw the now empty can of ginger ale into the bin. I really don't wanna do this, but when he's being this adorable I can't help but be wooed. And right now I'm just that. Silently, still not replying and trying my hardest best to hide my smile, I take the full plain glass bowl of popcorn and make my way towards the roof.
I get there and trust me. I don't like what I see. Not one bit. It's far far away from like. I mean how can this thing be liked. I love it. The sun is setting as I take a seat under the blanket draped over fountain he has created, watching the view with a jaw dropping mouth. I turn my head to say thank you when I see Jace on his knees.

"You can't be-"

"Relax Detia, I am not proposing" he says and even though I'm nineteen and still in college not ready for marriage, that phrase still hurts like a bitch. My smile falls at the pang I feel in my chest and he catches onto it

"I mean I'd love to do it in the near future. But you and I know we're not ready. That's why I'm giving you this ring, to signify my promise. Telling you that I'll be there forever, whenever, however you need me. I'll be there. So with this ring as a symbol of my promise, Detia, will you be my girlfriend?" He asks, extending a hand to pull open the small box he retrieved from his back pocket a while earlier

I nod. Not be able to talk. Because I'm very sure my voice will fail me. I extend my right hand and he slips it on my ring finger.

This is bliss. So lit

I know right. You could say that again

This is bliss. So lit

You didn't really have to say that again. I get up from my seated position careful not to destroy the beauty he has created and pull him up. I smash my lips into his and allow the tears to fall as I pull away

"Thank you" I murmur

"No I should be thanking you" he says and I chuckle. I look at the ring on my finger and I can't help but smile.

"It's beautiful

"It's beautiful. I love it. Thanks" I say to Jace

"I knew you'd love it" he says and winks at me

I could get used to this

And this time I don't fight with her. Cause I so completely understand. I could definitely get used to this
