Belle's P.O.V.

I walked downstairs after I had woken up again around 2 and Luce immediately redirected me back upstairs and told me to put on something cute. Well alright then, I said in my head bounding right back up the stairs and into my bedroom. I cranked up Twenty One Pilots  and opened my closet rifling through everything I owned. The procrastination in me led me to my bed and back on Tumblr. Reblogging and liking, I was there for at least a good hour when Lucy threw open the door to my bedroom.

"God damn it, Belle! What the fuck? I told you to get dressed!" She screamed, throwing pillows at me and pulling blankets off.

"Chill! Jesus Christ, give me like 5 minutes." I said dragging myself out of bed and back into the closet.

"I'm waiting right here until you're done."

"Suit yourself, sweetheart."

Sliding into my high-waisted shorts and lacy, white crop top that showed a few inches of my toned stomach, I walked out of the closet and plopped myself onto the floor.

"Luce, my high tops are downstairs and I'm too lazy to go get them..."

"We're going downstairs anyways, just put them on when we get down there." She said, never looking up from her phone.

"Fine." I muttered standing up and walking into the bathroom. Running a brush through my straight hair and going through the rest of the motions, I stopped my door and called out to Lucy.

"Hey, I'm done. Let's go." I said, tapping the door frame above me.

I slid down the railing and of course at the end there stood Ashton Irwin. Is he following me around now?

"Well hey there hottie." He said, catching me as I slid off at the bottom.

"Nice catch!" I called, jumping out of his arms and sliding across the hardwood floor in my socks. I put my arms out to catch me as I slid into the door and plopped myself onto the floor to put my shoes on.

"You're so full of energy." He said as he opened the door and I strutted out.

"It's why you love me." I said, tapping out a beat on his chest with my fingers.

"That's not the only reason." He said, grabbing the belt loops on my shorts, pulling me closer. "You're a really good kisser too."

"Why thank you." I winked, reaching up on my tippy toes to leave a kiss on his lips.

He held the kiss a little longer as if he was scared to let me go and I absolutely adored the sensitive side of him but was I going to tell him that? Psh, no. Okay.. Maybe when we're dating, if it ever gets to that.

"Come on, gorgeous." He said walking in front of me, and bending down.

I hopped on his back and we walked to the beach. I had wasted so much time it was already 6, and the sun was starting to set. It's always warm in California even though it's lateish. But I was starting to get cold, laying my head on his shoulder, he held me a little closer as if he knew that I was getting cold.

"We're almost there, princess. I know you're getting cold." He said breaking the silence.

I fell asleep, on his back, listening to the calming sounds of the beach and his heart beat. This is where I wanted to be forever.

"Belle, wake up. We're here." He said stopping, and setting me down. Still half asleep I tripped into his arms.

"I'm sorry.. " I apologized standing up straight wiping the last of sleep from my eyes and taking his out stretched hand. "What are we doing here?"

"You'll see." He said, leading me through a maze of bushes and into a little cave like thing. It was open in the middle and it was sandy and there was a waterfall, and then a cave that spanned around about half of it and the setting sun shown across it.

"Ash, this is beautiful.." I said stopping in my tracks to take in the view of it.

"Almost as beautiful as you.." He said, wrapping his arms around me. "Come here, I have something to show you."

We sat in the last of the sun cuddled up just sitting there in silence for hours. Ashton's phone ringing broke the silence.

"Yeah?" He said answering his phone. "Yeah, we're here. Let them go."

He sat back against the wall a little farther away from me, and smirked at me. Pulling away all physical touch, I was just sitting there.. then the sky exploded with color. Fireworks? They were beautiful, but extremely unexpected. After a few minutes, I heard Ashton stand up, so I did too. But I was mesmerized by the fireworks. Then they spelled out my name. I was intrigued. "Belle, will you be my girlfriend?" I was in awe. He asked me out through fireworks. And I turned to him and he was down on one knee with a ring in his hand.

"Belle, will you be my girlfriend? I promise to love you no matter what you throw at me." He asked, with a smirk on his face.

"I.. Ashton.. Yes." I stuttered, throwing my arms around him.

He stood back putting the ring on my finger, and he took out another ring box and put a matching ring on his finger. It was one of the rings that left the indent of a heart on your finger even after you take the ring off. I started crying and I just collapsed onto the ground.

"Baby, baby, what's wrong?" He asked with concern in his voice, holding me in his arms.

"Panic attack, sorry. This happens a lot." I choked out, silently crying into his chest.

"Don't apologize, just cry it out. I'm always going to be here to hold you." He said, kissing my forehead and holding me in his lap.

Once I stopped crying we just sat cuddled up together for awhile.

"Ashton?"

"Yes, baby?"

"Why me?" I asked, sitting up, and facing him. "You're a superstar, why me?"

"Because you were hard to get. You were everything I asked for, and you weren't throwing yourself at me. Like every slut in our school. We're seniors we're going to graduate soon enough. But we're always going to be together, and every other girl here is going to mean nothing. Your smile lights up a room, and your sass is fucking sexy. Your eyes are constantly sparkling, and your hair flows beautifully. You have a sweet voice when you're singing and your sleepy, morning voice is so quiet, I melt everytime I hear it. I love everything about you, and I can only hope you feel the same way." He said, tucking a piece of hair behind my ear, and holding me close.

"I love you, Ash. Everything about you." I whispered laying my head against his chest, falling asleep once again to his beating heart. The heart that beats for me.
