Kellinas P.O.V

I slowly rolled over and wrapped my arms around Zoe. We had just gotten back from being in Germany and I have had literally no sleep. It was a nine hour plane ride and she slept like a baby and here she is asleep again. I traced my fingers over her cheek and tucked her newly cut hair behind her ear. I really liked this short hair in Zoe. We had been together for nearly five years and I wouldn't want to spend the rest of my life with anyone else. I grabbed her hand and traced the engagement ring I have her on our last day in Germany. Every day that we were in Europe I wanted to propose to her but I just couldn't find the right time.

We walked along the sandy beaches at Rügen Island by the Baltic Sea. Mum has told me that her and dad grew up around this area. She told me that when they got married they visited this beach every weekend. Today was our final day in Germany and our final day on holiday. I couldn't of had a better time seeing Europe if I didn't have Zoe. She mad everything fun and exciting. She encouraged me to do things out of my comfort zone and made everything worthwhile.

I held her hand as we walked along the beach. The sun was setting into beautiful pinks, oranges and purples.

"This was one of the best trips I've ever been on," she sighed as we stopped to watch the sunset.

"Because I was here or because this was your first holiday?" I asked, causing her to laugh.

"Both, But more that I needed a holiday," I looked into her green eyes. They reminded me so much of my fathers. She was simply the most beautiful girl in the world.

"You should be watching the sunset," she smiled, turning her gaze to the ocean. The waves were calm and the bird chirped as they flew over. Now was perfect. I pulled the box from my jacket and held it in front of me. Zoe's mouth dropped open.

"Zoella Zanderson, we met nearly five years ago and I knew that as soon as I saw you in my bar that you were going to change me. You were simply the most beautiful and gorgeous girl I had ever seen. I hoped that every day you would come to the bar so that I could talk to you and see you. I hoped that everyday I could make you smile and make you fall for me but I didn't realise that I was falling for you," I held onto her hands and sighed trying to keep my tears away.

"When I left I visited my mum and she encouraged me to go for you. She could see how much I liked you even when I tried not too. You were so intriguing and I just couldn't stop thinking about you. You were so comforting and you made me feel safe. You made me feel loved. You've made me feel like I can let my walls down and learn to love again,"

"Kellina," Zoe whispered, wiping the tears from her cheeks.

"You are the love of my life, will you marry me Zoella Zanderson?" She nodded her head, tears welling from her eyes.

"Yes?"

"Yes!" She cried. I slipped her promise ring off and slipped in the gold engagement ring.

"I love you so much Kellina," she cried in my arms.

"And I love you,"

"Did you get any sleep?" I blinked out of my daydream and saw Zoe looking at me sleepily.

"Not particularly," I sighed, leaning over and pecking her lips. Her hands found my cheeks as she deepened the kiss.

"Mmm morning breath," I chuckled, pecking her nose.

"Yours isn't much better," she giggled, rolling over into me.

"Please tell me were not doing anything today," I whispered, playing with her hair.
