THE ORIGINALS: BLOODLINE

⚜ XLIX. I love you ⚜

Marguerette Bishop

For years of being a sorceress, I was named as the weakest. The useless sorceress because I can't use my powers right. I can't even do incredible things like what others is doing.

But when Nathaniel came. He gave me reasons to be strong and be stronger. He treated and sees me as the strongest sorceress. He brings out the best in me. He made me realized I'm valuable than gems. He made me realized I'm more precious than golds and diamonds and I love him for making me feel so special. Very special.

The Lorenzittee mansion is filled with visitors now. The party is not yet starting. But the visitors is crowding the hall. Dinungaw ko ang kung ano sa baba. I'm wearing a most exquisite fajry gown right now. It's color is light brown. I feel like I am a princess with this dress. May katamtamang slit ito sa kaliwang hita.

"You look so lovely", Nathaniel walk to me just to say it to me.

Ngumiti ako sa kanya. Nakihalo na kami ngayon sa mga bisita. Maraming bumabati sa kanya at sa akin. Lorenzittee are rich family eight century have passed. They got ruined because of family issue. Their history is written in the book and the people here knows what they are. Just this new generations that doesn't know about it.

The soft music filled the hall. The couples are now dancing at the center of the hall.

"May I have this dance, my lady?", Nathaniel flashed a sexy smile on his lips.

Mabilis akong natawa at inubos ang natitirang champagne sa aking flute at nagpatinanod na sa kanya sa gitna ng hall. The visitors gives us space at the center.

Ngumiti ako sa kanya. If I haven't told you yet, he already marked me as his.

"Do you know the first time I saw you?", he asked me.

"Werewolves attacked me and you saved me", ngumiti ako.

He smile too and kiss my lips for a second. "Yes, Marguerette. I run away because of family drama. I am willing to give up but that moment, that day I saw you", he fixed the strands of my hair. "With this look in your face like the whole world is going to shifts down. I suddenly realize I still need to live and to know you. Now that I know you, I want to love you and be with you always", tears pooled in his eyes. As well as mine.

I chucked but my voice broke because of his words. Natawa ako. He continue.

"And your smiles made something inside of me cracked wide open. I was lost and look like dead for ages, Marguerette Bishop, and only then when I saw your smile and hear your laugh. I feel alive again", he whispers to me. "I love you so much. I love you vry, very much", sabi niya sa akin. "You are worth being good for. You change my life. I owe you that and I'm thankful I met you".

Ngumiti ako lalo as my tears streaming down from my eyes to my cheeks.

"I love you, too, Nathaniel Lorenzittee. I will always love you. You make me feel alive too. You're the reason why I became this strong girl when I was so weak before. You bring out the best in me and I love you for that. You make me feel very special the way you treated me. You treated me more precious than gems and more valuable than golds and diamonds. You see like I'm the most beautiful girl in the world. You treated me special. I'm grateful that I met you", I flash a smile.

He wipe my tears away from my cheeks. I chuckled. He draw his face closer to me.

"I love you", he said and this he kiss my lips with a deep kiss. I can hear the visitors cheered for us.

My eyes suddenly widened when Nathaniel kneel into the tiled floor with a small box on his hands. He open it and it revealed the diamonds and it shines as the light reflected to it. There are lots of small diamons around the big one.

"To the most beautiful girl in my life. My beloved Marguerette Bishop. Will you share your life with me and be mine forever?", tiningala niya ako habang may ngiti sa labi.

Wala akong pag-alinlangang tumango sa kanya. Who would refuse him? He's a man of my dreams. He's like a treasure to me. He's the treasure that I found.

Mabilis niyang sinuot sa aking daliri ang mamahaling singsing at niyakap ako.

The loud cheering of the visitors is mixed with the music. Their claps are so loud that I can't even hear my own heartbeat. I'm so happy.

We continue dancing there like we onw the whole place. We dance like nobody is watching us. We dance like it's our final moment. We pour all of our hearts to the music and the dance.
