Beck's POV

When we arrived, I thought that we were just gonna walk along the beach but we started walking towards what seems like a private rest house in front of the beach.

I look at Freen suspiciously.

"What?" she laughed "Stop looking at me like that" she said.

When we were getting near, she suddenly stopped and looked at me.

"Okay, close your eyes" she said.

"What? Why?" I said, confused.

"Just trust me. No peeking okay?"

"Hmm okay"

"Good" she said.

I closed my eyes as she held my hand to guide me to wherever she's taking me.

She didn't say anything as we walked.

When we finally stopped, she said "Okay, you can open your eyes now"

I slowly opened my eyes to see a beautiful table set in front of us. With candles and flower arrangements everywhere. The sun was setting perfectly in the horizon and soft music was playing in the background.

When I turned to Freen, she was holding this beautiful bouquet of flowers and was smiling just as beautiful. She was looking straight at me, maintaining eye contact. Her eyes were so soft as well as her smile. I notice that tears were already pooling in her eyes.

"Freen" I said. It was like there was nothing else I could say. All I was ever to utter was her name.

I didn't notice that I was crying until she wiped away my tears.

"Becky, I love you. I love everything about you. At first, I was so clueless about my feelings, but now I'm sure. I'm sure that you're the only one who can make me feel like this."

She stopped for a moment. By this time, she was also crying.

"For so long, I thought that I could never find anybody who will instantly click with me, but I was wrong. You're the most perfect person in my eyes. Even when you're not doing anything, just knowing the fact that you exist already makes my heart swell with joy. I love you so much. Meeting you was the best thing that ever happened. Meeting you was like the universe saying that I'll never have to face this world alone again" she continued.

"I guess what I'm trying to really say is, I never want to let you go. This might be a little late but, Rebecca Patricia Armstrong, will you officially be my girlfriend?"

I was crying so much at this moment, once I regained control all I said was,

"Yes, a million times yes" while nodding repeatedly.

She smiled from ear to ear then pulled me in for a hug. We stayed like that until we were both able to partially pull ourselves together.

We looked straight at each other. It was like we were both so lost in each other's gaze. But also, it was like finding comfort that you know you'll never find in other people.

We started to lean in and our lips were able to finally make contact.

I swear, whenever we kiss it feels like, each time, it gets more passionate and more intense than the previous ones.

After the kiss, we rested our forehead on each other's and then she suddenly laughed softly.

I broke away, "what's so funny?" I asked, now, also smiling.

"I don't know, my emotion's just all over the place. I'm just so happy"

"I love you" I said.

"I love you most" she said before giving me a quick kiss.

Afterwards, we sat down to eat. It was like a moment that was so perfect. We talked about anything and everything and when we were quiet, stealing glances from each other, it was still the most comforting thing ever to just be with her.

"I've been thinking, so how long have you actually been planning this?" I asked.

"Well actually, this was the thing I was busy about. I've been planning this with Nam the whole time."

"Wait so I got upset because you were planning to make us official? Now I feel more stupid about it"

"No, baby, don't be. I understand, don't worry. Plus, it was so cute when you're the one sulking" she teased.

"It still feels surreal that we're really together now. I feel like it was just yesterday when you said bb was just for becbec" I said, laughing.

"Well, I do think that baby suits you better. But I'm the only one who can call you that, okay?"

"I like it when you become so possessive"

"Well, when your girlfriend is Rebecca Armstrong, you'll be possessive too. I mean, who wouldn't want to date you?"

"I could say the same for you, Ms everyone's ideal woman"

She laughed a little and made eye contact.

I don't think I'll ever get tired looking at her beautiful eyes.

I  reached out my hand to hold hers and said "How did I get so lucky?".

"Maybe it's not luck. It's just that we were meant to meet each other" she said.

"I also like to think that. I love you, Like I always say, I'll never leave your side. Whenever you need someone to lean on, to talk to or anything else, I'm here, always. I can't promise that I'll be the perfect partner, but I'll always strive to be"

I saw that her tears were starting to fall again, just like mine.

"I never thought that I'll be able to love someone so much who also loves me just as much. Sometimes I think, what did I do to deserve this" she said.

I stood up from my seat and kneeled beside her, holding one of her hands, and the other wiping her tears.

I kissed the back of her hand, "You deserve everything the world has to offer. You're the best person I know. If I can list all the things I love about you, I would. But it's just too many so much so that everyday, I find another reason to love you."

Suddenly, she went in to hug me, still crying.

"Thank you. For everything. I promise to never let you down. Let's be the best version of ourselves together. I love you, so much" she said in between sobs.

"I love you too, Freen. Always"
