Cassidy and woke up the following morning with a slight headache. She knew she didn't drink all that much, so she was thankful it was only a mild headache.

Cassidy stretched her arms above her head and let out an unintentional groan. Austin began to stir beside her. She smiled as she rolled on her side to face him. She reached out and ran her hand up and down his bare back slowly. As she was about to stop, Austin threw his arm around her waist and pulled her closer.

"Good morning birthday girl," Austin mumbled, sleep still dripping from his voice.

"Noooo. Stop it." Cassidy placed her fingers over Austin's lips.

"I've told you over and over, being here with you is plenty babe.." Cassidy's voice was soft, making Austin smile.

"Well, I'm allowed to say it. So shhh!" He places a kiss to her temple before trailing down to her cheek, and then her neck. Cassidy chuckled as Austin literally tickled her neck with kisses.

That, of course, didn't last long, as Austin's hands traveled up the baggy shirt Cassidy was wearing; the only thing she was wearing. His calloused hands sent chills up her spine, her nipples becoming erect instantly.

Austin's hand gently latched on to one, earning a soft moan from Cassidy. Her hand went straight for his head of curls like it always did.

Austin pulled the shirt over her head, leaving her completely naked underneath him. "God damn it, Cass.." he whispered as he began to pepper her collar bones and shoulders with more kisses. "..you are so. Fucking. Sexy."

"Aust. Please.." Cassidy moaned, practically begging.

"What do you want? Hm?"

"Just fuck me. Please!" She grinned.

"Anything for the birthday girl!" That sexy smirk appeared on his lips as he pulled his erection from his shorts and slid into Cassidy without much warning.

"Jesus fucking Christ Cass.. you are so fucking wet already." Austin pulled Cassidy's legs up and held onto them as he pounded into her, knowing he wasn't going to be able to last much longer.

"Fuck babe.." Austin dropped her legs and leaned forward, propping himself upon his hands.

Cassidy began to attack Austin's neck, nipping and sucking on the skin near his collarbone. This sent him over the edge.

"Have I told you how fucking sexy you are? Cause someone should remind you .." he teased as he pulled out of Cassidy and walked to the bathroom to clean up. She lay there in that bed for another moment.

She shifted slightly and looked out the small crack in the curtains at their beautiful view. Once again, making her realize that she was the luckiest woman in the world.

It takes one hell of a man to stick with a woman with as much baggage as Cassidy, but Austin had never let that stop him from thinking she was the one. It was pretty early on that he knew he was going to spend the rest of his life with her.

She was different than who he normally dated, sure. But personality-wise, she was exactly his type. She had the perfect music taste and the perfect attitude for his lifestyle. And, despite all the bullshit she's been through in the last year, she almost always has a smile on her face.

Austin decided to take a quick shower, just to rinse off really. Once he emerged with the towel wrapped around his waist, he found Cassidy standing in the room, looking out the giant window, still in her underwear. Tom Petty's song "Wildflowers" was playing from her phone, he knew it was her favorite, and he knew she was thinking of her dad.

"Hey, you okay?" He walked up behind her and kissed her shoulder.

"I'm okay. I just wanted to feel him." She smiled softly. Days like today are always hard .. but now- now that they're both gone, it's different. But, I'm okay." She turned around completely to face him. "Thank you. Again. Like, I don't just mean for this." She looked around the room." I mean for everything babe. I'll never be able to express how grateful I am that you came into my life when you did. The universe clearly knew I needed you." She spoke softly and slowly. She brought her eyes back to his, to find they hadn't left at all.

"You never need to worry about repaying me or expressing your gratitude baby. It's what we do for the people we love. I love you more than I could ever put into words. I didn't know how badly my life needed something like you until you were there. You keep my head balanced. You keep me sane, even though it may not seem like it- I know I'm a fucking nut job." He laughed, earning a chuckle from Cassidy as well.

"But I promise you, Cassidy, as long as I'm here, you will never have to worry about me knowing how thankful you are. I know. The same goes for Brandon. I love you both, and I love having you in my home. Our home." He sighed and stepped away towards the book bag he had carried on the plane with him.

"Look, I was going to wait to give you your gift baby. But I can't." She could hear the smile in his voice." She couldn't see what he held in his hands, but it was small and he held it behind his back for a moment. "Like I said. I love you. I'm so happy I got to bring you here for your birthday. Now-" Austin looked down, and while still wrapped in his towel, got down on one knee and brought the small box out from behind his back. Cassidy's eyes welled up with tears instantly.

"Will you marry me, Cassidy?" He held the small box up to reveal a gorgeous black diamond ring.

"Uh! Yes, of-fucking-course!" Her left hand was shaking as Austin slid the ring on her left hand. And wrapped his arms around her shoulders once he stood up. "I want you to know. I asked Brandon for his blessing. It may sound crazy, but I needed to make sure he was happy before I did this for us. He was thrilled, to say the least. I'm sorry I never got to meet your dad and didn't get the chance to really know your mom. But as I said, I'm here Cassidy, for as long as you'll have me, I'm here. And I love you."

"I love you too Austin."

A/n: holy shit y'all. Thank you SO much for the 19k. That blows my fucking mind! I'm seeing Austin on Thursday and my inspiration is starting to come back and I started a new job yesterday so things are finally looking up and hopefully will get back on track! Thanks for all the love!
