A Flame In Your Heart

Paul's pov
After we had dinner with Gracie's family, I got to know the lot of them. And for once I felt Normal again.

Not a famous singer, not anyone.
Gracie is unexplainable, I don't think the smartest scientists in the world would be able to figure her out the way I'm finding out how to.

She's just something else. And I plan on staying with her, unlit my heart that beats for her stops.

As cheesy as it may sound, I don't think I'll ever feel this way for anyone else.
"Hey where are we going?"
Gracie asked, as we drove away from her small home.

The night sky lite up her eyes, making me shiver just at the sight of them her ocean blue jems could enchant any man, if they looked deep enough.
"The lads are staying with there family's for the night. I figured I'd take you out one last time."
She simply just smiled, showing off those beautiful pearly whites.

We drove off the highway and into a small forest entering.

We parked and I faced her.
"Paul we're in the middle of no where..."
I smiled and hoped out of the car.
I opened her door and helped her out.

She gasped seeing the view, the stars, the sky, the buildings, the lights.
I put my hands in my pockets slowly approaching her.

She held her hands together looking out in awe.
Her hair blew in the wind, her eyes sparkled under the lights.

She was glowing. She was the light at the end of my tunnel.
And I wouldn't have it any other way.
"Come lye down with me."
I said peacefully sitting down in the grass and lying back, facing the stars which tinkled brightly.
She followed, lying as close to me as possible.
We looked up watching the stars in silence, it wasn't awkward it was peaceful.

I felt her hand crawl into mine, warming me up to the brim.
"Thank you, for today. I don't think I'd ever build up the courage to do that."
She whispered.
"It was all you my love, your just slowly opening up. Thank you for helping me, become who I am."
I said.
She smiled.
"Paul your something else, I Hope never to lose you as I did with Zac. But is just you and I facing the scary but beautiful world."
Her words making me smile.
"Paul."
"Yes?"
There was a pause.
"What's wrong?"
I asked facing her, she kept watching the stars and the night sky. The stars reflected through her eyes.
She took a deep breath in, making me nervous.
"Why do you like me?"
"That's a crazy question luv!"
I said.
"But seriously paulie, I'm just a struggling dumb girl, with high hopes and really nothing."
I scooted closer to her, but she didn't dare ale her eyes off the sky.
"Well I love your eyes, I can't explain it gra your eyes are my world. The way you look at me, the way you laugh. Your laugh alone! Is my favourite song. Your freckles, it's as though Vincent van gough painted them perfectly on your perfect little face. Your hair is a different story. When it slowly blows when the wind hits it, the blonde highlights to it. Gosh Gracie you drive me nuts."
"What about a famous actress, a beautiful princess. A famous lead singer! I'm a no one paul."
"That's Just it Gracie, you aren't a no one, because if that were to be true I wouldn't be who I am. Your Gracie! Your so amazing love! Your so intelligent and so beautiful!"
I could sense her smile, but I didn't look.
Yet again a silence, so thick you could slice through it.
"It's just that, people like you like people like them. So why are you here still?"
She spoke, the wind picking up her English accent.
I picked her up from the ground swinging her around.
She let out a squeak as I did so, but I stopped and looked her dead straight in her eyes, those amazing god for Saken eyes of hers.
"youve got me all wrong, people like me fall in love with a girl like you."
I responded, keeping our eyes shut, holding onto her for dear life. Afraid if I let go I'll never see her again.
She smiled, lighting up my entire world in an instant.
"Marry me."
The words slipped out. I shouldn't of, we've only know each other for two months.
I've ruined everything, everything is bound to end. Oh god! I'm a fool! An idiot!
"I'll marry you."
She whispered.
I shot up.
"Really?"
"Only if you promise to be mine forever."
"Forever, and ever."
She smiled, I tucked a stand of hair behind her ear.
"Your amazing."
She said.
"Your amazing."
I replied.
She smiled and straddled my waist, toppling me with kisses.
"Now?"
"Yes now."
She said pushing me back down.
I smiled and she pulled at my collar.
We laughed all night long, shared stories became closer.
But this day, may have been the greatest day ever.
And I'll never forget it.
