Everyone looked at one another. It was their last day in Paradise, and they had the option to stay for the final rose ceremony, where engagements were inevitable, to leave as a couple, or to leave single.
[Bayley Confessional:
"I mentioned in a past week that I'm not ready for an engagement after how my last one ended. And I still stand by that. I just hope Finn will want to leave with me."]Finn and Bayley sat on the beach. She stared into the ocean before he piped up, "Listen, Bayley, I know you're not ready for an engagement, but I'd love to leave here with you."
She turned toward him and smiled. "Really?"
He nodded. "Really. I've fallen in love with you over these past few weeks. You're an amazing gal."
"I've fallen in love with you too," she said, leaning in to kiss him.
After they pulled apart, they stood up, took each other's hands, and walked to the entryway of the beach.
They looked directly at the camera, waved, and walked to the limo which would take them to the airport.

"I think we should leave as a couple and not stay for the final rose ceremony," Sami told Becky. Andi and Phillip and Alexa and Braun, meanwhile, were having the same conversation, with similar responses. (I'm just too lazy to write all of the conversations)
"I agree. We've only been on this show together for a couple of weeks, it would be irrational to get engaged at this time." Becky replied.
The three couples then went to the entrance of the beach, where three limos were awaiting them.

The only couples left were Seth and Sasha, Maddie and Diego, and Emma and Jax. They were staying for the final rose ceremony.
Chris motioned toward Maddie to join Diego on the beach. She walked toward him and he smiled at her.
"Hi!" she exclaimed, jumping in his arms. She kissed him after he put her down.
[Diego Confessional:
"This is it. I'm really doing this."]"Maddie, whenever I met you, I had no clue that we would end up here. But, here we are. I'm so grateful to be standing here with you today." He picked up that rose that was laying on the table. "Will you accept this final rose?"
Maddie smiled and nodded. He gave her the rose and hugged her.
"Also, um, this journey has made me see how much of a great person you are. And I can truly say that I am in love with you." Diego got down on a knee and Maddie smiled in shock. "Maddelyn Van Pelt, will you marry me?"
"Oh my gosh, yes!" she smiled, allowing him to put the ring on her finger. She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him.
[Maddie and Diego Confessional:
M: "We're engaged! I'm getting married! Woo!" *proceeds to run around the beach excitedly*
D: *chuckled and motions to her* "That's my fiancé."]•~•~
Chris then motioned for Emma to join Jax on the beach.
Emma walked up to Jax and smiled, earning one back.
Jax made a whole speech on how he loved Emma, and gave her the rose. But what he said next made her stop in her tracks. "However, I can't propose to you."
"What? Why not?"
"You are amazing, and I plan on staying with you forever, but I'm not ready for marriage yet. We've still got a lot to learn about each other."
Emma shrugged. "I guess you're right."
[Emma and Jax Confessional:
E: "Even though we aren't engaged, we plan on it happening very soon."
J: "Yeah, she's right."]•~•~
Sasha joined Seth on the beach and smiled, knowing that she was about to get a rose and leave with Seth, the man of her dreams.
"Look, Sasha, I love you and all, but I can't give you the rose today."
Sasha stared at him in shock. All those weeks together for this?
"Because our love is worth more than a rose. More than a million roses, I might add," he finished, getting down on a knee. "Sasha Mercedes Banks, wanna get married?"
"Of course!"
The two kissed each other as Seth slid the ring on Sasha's finger.
[Sasha and Seth Confessional:
Sa: "Look at this thing, it's gorgeous!" *shows camera her ring* "You did great Seth."
Se: I know."]Thanks for reading this book! It's over, sadly, but I've got another book in the works right now!
Thanks,
