CARTER POV
My eyes never left Cayden. She was gorgeous, breath taking and ...... there were no words to describe her. She laughed with her friends and hugged them. The dress fitted her perfectly, showing her curves, strands of her hair fell forward as she chuckled and I was tempted to tuck it behind her ear. I could stand here all day watching her.
''Stop that, Car.'' I looked to my side to find Ariana watching me.
''What?'' She rolled her eyes.
''You look like a creep. Stop staring and give her what you planned.'' She smirked at me and I just stared at her.
''How did you know?''
''I practically lived with you my whole life.''
''You still do.''
''I know. And I regret it. But there are f***ing hot guys to worry about now.'' She walked away, probably to hit on some guy. I finally found Cayden leaning on the table watching everyone with a smile. She looked at me as I leaned beside her. I think I just saw her eyes twinkle.
''Thankyou Carter.''
''For what?'' She waved her hands around.
''All this. Actually I forgot it was my birthday.'' I stared at her as if she had grown multiple heads.
''Who forgets their birthday?''
''Me. I never celebrated it.'' I decided not to push the topic. Instead I faced her and handed her the gift.
''Happy birthday, Miss Jones.'' She gave one of her charming smiles and muttered a thankyou.

CAYDEN POV
''Is it okay if I ..'' He interrupted me with a wave of his hand and I tore open the wrapper. There was a tiny box and I froze as I opened it. There was the most beautiful pair of earrings I had ever seen. It was quite simple like the one I would wear. And there was a piece of paper underneath it which read 'Will you be my girlfriend?'
I looked up and met his dazzling blue eyes. ''Will you?''
I put my arms around his neck and whispered a few yesses and he hugged me back tightly with relief. He then pulled away from the hug and brought his lips on mine. I pulled him closer by the collar of his suit and kissed him back. He bit my upper lip gently, squeezing my waist. We would have stayed like that forever if there weren't cheers and wolf whistles from the guests. I pulled away and leaned my forehead on his. He gave me a bright smile and I returned it in a daze. I wanted more. I wanted to kiss him again. It was like he drugged me.
It was one of the best day ever.

RomanceI stood there, looking blankly at the most idiotic person I had ever seen. And I think it is impossible to find another one like him. At least 'I' am not an idiot to go looking for an another idiot when I already have one in front of me. He smirked...
