Mals P. O. V.

Those words repeated in my head. "Marry me, marry me, marry me." My mind was blank, is he really asking me this.

"I um…" what am I suppose to say, don’t get me wrong I love him, I truly do, but am I ready for this. Before I knew my mind was already made up, and my mouth started to talk. "Yes."

"Really?"

"Yes, yes a thousand times yes." I say.

Ben stood up and gave me a long passionate kiss on the lips, and put the ring on my finger. It was a beautiful gold band, with a heart shaped amytheist. My birth stone.

"Ben it's absolutely beautiful!" I say hugging him.

"Just like you." He replied.

"Oh shut up!" I playfully slap his arm.

"Let’s get back to the party." He say sticking out his arm.

"Let’s" I say intertwining our arms.

At the party

Later during the party Ben and I were slow dancing the night away, and before I knew it, it was my time to give him my surprise.

The girls dragged me away to one of the many rooms so we could change. You didn't think we were actually gonna dance in those big ass ballgowns did you? No way. We made our way back to the party, and gave the D.j. the go ahead.

"Ladies and gent’s, may I plz have your attention. We have four special ladies who want to perform for you, one in particular would like to dedicate this song to the guy who stole her heart. Her words, not mine. Now please give a big hand to Evie, Jane, Lonnie, Audrey, and Mal.”

Evie, Jane, Lonnie, Audrey and I perform as a group in the middle of the room, everyone forming a circle around us, Ben being front and center.

Mal: Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh
If I’m the sun then you’re the moon
If you’re the words then I’m the tune yeah
If you’re the heart then I’m the beat
Somehow together we’re complete yeah
There are times my world is crumbling and the rain is crashing down
But everywhere you are the sun comes out
Even when you’re gone
I feel you close
You’ll always be the one
I love the most
You’re in my heart, on my mind
You are underneath my skin
And anywhere, anytime, that you need anything
Count me in
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Count me in yeah, yeah
I don’t need to say a word, no
‘Cause you know when I’m happy and when I’m hurt
We’re close as pages in a book
‘Cause you make me feel better with just one look
There are times my world is crumbling and the rain is crashing down
But everywhere you are the sun comes out
Even when you’re gone
I feel you close
You’ll always be the one
I love the most
You’re in my heart, on my mind
You are underneath my skin
And anywhere, anytime, that you need anything
Count me in
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Count me in yeah, yeah
Cause we’re two halves of the same new heart that beats to our own drum
You’re the shadow always by my side
One that sometimes knows me better than I know myself
And I wish that you were here with me tonight
Even when you’re gone
I feel you close
You’ll always be the one
I love the most
You’re in my heart, on my mind
You are underneath my skin
And anywhere, anytime, that you need anything
Count me in
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Count me in yeah, yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Count me in
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Count me in

By the end I had ended up right in front of Ben.

"I love you" He says pulling me to him.

"I love you too." I say kissing him, whilst everyone cheers.

We go back and change into our dresses we had on. After going back to the ballroom, we go our seperate ways to find our guys. I make my way back to Ben, who is talking to some of the other guys.

"Exscuse me, but can I steal my boyfriend away from you guys?" I say wrapping my arms around Ben.

"Of course." Jay says, walking away.

"You were amazing. I didn’t know you could sing." Ben says facing me.

"Why thank you kind sir, and yes I can sing." I reply resting my chin on his chest.

“Well anyways, thankyou.. for.. the.. song.” he says between kisses.

"Thank you for the best Valentine’s ever." I say smiling at him.

"Exscuse me may I have your attention please." Belle says earning everyone's attention. "It’s time for the moment you all been waiting for, your crowning of the Valentine’s Queen and King. And your Valentine’s king is........ King Benjamin!"

Everyone cheers.

"And your Valentine’s Queen is.................Mal!" She says. I was in complete shock.

"And now for the annual Valentine’s king and Queen dance." She says gesturing to the floor. Telling us to dance. "Tale as old as time." Starts to play, and Ben and I start to dance.

"Is some type of joke or something.” I ask him doubtful. I was freaking out on the inside.

"Hey listen to me, you sexy, your beautiful, and you’re an inspiration to everyone in this room, and as soon as you start realizing that, everyone else will to. Now dance with me." He says earning my attention.

"I love you.” I smile up at him.

"And I love you." He says kissing my temple.

When the dance ends, Ben and I kiss each other, while everyone else claps for us.
