Song: stand by me by Prince Royce

I love this song, it's such a romantic and cute and inspiring song and Prince Royce is so cute, he's a Mexican/American singer. xD this song is in English but has Spanish parts and again I will translate it :) this song is basically about going through a rough time and no matter what your circumstance is. Don't cry because someone will always stand by you through it :) ♡♡ that's why he's showing all those people who have gone through so much horrible things....people we lost and like what happened with Paris and with Christina grimmie, selena, etc. Being strong even in the most hardest times. Be the change that you want to see in the world.

When the night, has come and the land is dark

y la luna, es la luz que brilla ante mi (And the moon, is the light that shines before me)

Miedo no, no tendré, oh I won't, me asustaré (Afraid no, i will not have, oh I won't, be scared)

Just as long as you stand, stand by me
And darling, darling stand, by me, oh stand by me
Oh stand, junto a mi, junto a mi.
Y aunque las montañas o el cielo caiga (Next to me, next to me. And even if the mountains or the sky falls)

no voy a preocuparme (I will not worry)
por que se, que tu estas junto a mi
No llorare, no llorare (Because I know that you are next to me I will not cry, I will not cry)

oh, I won't share a tear
por que se, que tu estas junto a mi (Because I know that you are with me)

And darling, darling stand by me, oh stand by me
Oh stand, stand by me, stand by me
That's class right there
And darling, darling stand by me, oh stand by me
Oh stand, junto a mi, junto a mi (Beside me, next to me)

And darling, darling stand by me, oh stand by me
Oh stand, junto a mi, junto a mi (Beside me next to me)

Come on, swagga no too strong
What's my name, Royce
And darling, darling stand by me, oh stand by me
Oh stand, junto a mi, junto a mí (Beside me next to me)

Spanish is such a beautiful language, I'm glad im a American/Latina. :) ♡

Over the next twenty minutes, they fell into a light, banter filled discussion about their individual jobs while ross covertly kept digging his fork into her plate, alternating between feeding her and taking bites of it himself. The waitress came by, offering dessert to which ross said no for the both of them after remembering raini's little analogy.

There was no reason to remain at the restaurant any longer but he didn't want the night to end, so he tried to engage her in conversation about her childhood and was thrilled she talked instead of asking to be taken home right away. As time wore on, the mockery lessened while small smiles were exchanged more frequently. She hadn't asked him to move his chair away from her and even leaned into his shoulder a few times when he'd managed to make her laugh.

They hadn't run out of things to talk about, but when the restaurant began closing up for the night, Ross announced he would take her home since he didn't want her to turn into a pumpkin and he had to be up by zero four hundred the next morning. Had that much time actually passed? They'd stayed until closing time? She couldn't remember what she'd expected to happen while out with him, all she knew now was she definitely wanted to see him again. Sure, they had some serious talking to do, but tonight had been fun and apparently just what they needed. Her 'maybe' to giving him a chance had just tilted heavily towards a yes.

The ride back to her barracks was made in silence, but when they reached the parking lot, he shut off the engine and looked over at her.

"I'll just walk you to the front door."

"Afraid I can't handle myself if I get jumped?" She quirked an eyebrow at him.

"I know YOU can, it's the other guy I'm worried about. Unless you don't want me to?" he quickly added. Had he said the wrong thing?

He was impossibly cute as she knew he was back-pedaling from what he thought was a mistake. Huh! Calum was right, she did seem to hold power over him, but no way was she going to use it against him. At least not in a manner he wouldn't enjoy... eventually.

"I'd like that," she offered with a smile. He was out the door in a flash and on the other side of the car to open hers. "But you can drop the gentleman crap. It doesn't suit you and frankly? Wigging me out here." He laughed heartily at this.

"If you don't like it I'll be glad to walk ahead of you from now on." He leaned in closer to her. "Besides, isn't that a woman's place? Behind her man?" He quickly moved away from her as he knew she'd be outraged.

"Ahh! You-you, arghh!" she cried indignantly and punched his shoulder then giggled, shaking her head as he bowled over laughing from having teased her.

When he came back to walk beside her, he was rubbing his shoulder and she slipped her arm around his elbow while her other hand came up to pat the area she slugged. "I can see I'm going to have to kick your ass more often to keep you in line, Mister."

Freaking hell! She was, she was... holding onto his arm, being affectionate towards him. A huge grin came over his face at this small but significant development. "Was kinda hopin' you would."

Upon reaching the door, he felt like he was back in high school, at that awkward part of the evening when one wasn't sure if they should go for that goodnight kiss or not. When she let go of his arm, he knew there was no sense in ruining a perfectly good evening by hoping for too much too early.

"Thanks for having dinner with me tonight." He shoved his hands inside his denim pockets. "Can I see you again when I get back?" She answered him with a simple 'yes' and smiled prettily at him. He nodded once, deciding it was best to leave it on this note. "Goodnight then, Laura." Just as he turned to leave, he felt her hand touch his arm gently, turning him back towards her.

Standing on her tip toes, she planted a lingering kiss to his cheek. "I had a nice time tonight. Thank you." Yes, he would definitely be seeing her when he got back.

"You're welcome," he blushed. He turned to head back to his car feeling ten feet tall when she suddenly called out to him.

"Oh and Ross?" She waited until he looked at her.

"Yeah?"

"It's the Drill Sergeant uniform. The brown hat and green belt," she winked. "Does it for me every time." She left him with that parting thought, feeling more than naughty for having done so, but knowing he'd appreciate it.

Stunned, he watched her enter the building and his heart skipped a beat from her surprising admission.Good thing I decided to keep 'em... saucy minx!
