Bellamy's POV:
Two months later

Today was graduation. School was going to be over. And more importantly, I was going to propose to Clarke. I really loved her, I wasn't gonna let her go.

I walked out of the school with Clarke at my side. Clarke's mom made it so they went out for lunch before graduation so that I could take Clarke out for dinner. I asked for permission and Clarke's mom was ok with it, after a lot of convincing.

Clarke smiled up at me
"So where are we going?" I smiled back at her and answered with
"You'll have to wait and see" she sighed and said
"You know I don't like surprises" with that adorable pout on her face. I couldn't help but kiss her and then I said
"Yeah but that doesn't mean it will stop me from trying" she sighed again and leaned her head on my shoulder.

We pulled up to the restaurant and Clarke's eyes widened, she almost yelled at me
"Why the hell are we here? This looks to expensive, it's just graduation" I laughed and rubbed the back of my neck.

But it's not. I said to myself.

"I already made reservations"
she sighed again and said
"Fine, but I'm getting the cheapest thing on that menu" I shook my head as we walked in
"No, you're getting what you want to eat. I'll handle the money" I was fine. I had been working ever since she left and that's what took up most of my time while she was gone. I had saved enough for the dinner and then some for the wedding. If she said yes. God I hope she says yes.

She nodded reluctantly and let the waiter lead us to our table.

While Clarke ate I could feel the ring burning a hole in my pocket. I felt eyes on me so I looked up and saw that Clarke was staring at me with a questioning look on her face
"Why are you silent? Did I do something? You don't look very happy" I cleared my throat and said
"Well I actually wanted to talk to you-" I was cut off when Clarke cut to the chase
"Are you breaking up with me?" My eyes widened and I shook my head as fast as I could
"No no no no no. I was gonna tell you about that thing we talked about at the wedding. What I said I messed with almost everyday" she smiled and said
"Good because I'm not letting you go and it'll be easier if you want to stay. And finally! I've been dying to know for so long" I laughed nervously and said
"So before the beach trip I bought this thing...I-I was going to give it to you while we were there but I accidentally left it at the house when we left for the restaurant. Even after you told me you were leaving I was planing on giving it to you. But then we kinda broke up so that didn't happen. So while you were gone I messed with this so called 'object' almost everyday wondering what would have happened if I would have ended up giving it to you. So now that you're back I want to give this to you. But first I would like to say how much I love you. I know we haven't known each other for that long but I don't know what I would do without you. For that month that you where gone I forgot who I was. I was no one without you and I never want to be without you again. So..." And with that I stood up and grabbed the ring out of my pocket as I kneeled down on one knee
"Clarke Griffen. Would you do me the honors of becoming my wife?" She gasped and raised her hands to her face. She froze.

Clarke's POV:

Bellamy was acting weird.

I looked at him and asked
"Why are you silent? Did I do something? You don't look very happy" He cleared his throat and said
"Well I actually wanted to talk to you-" He was cut off when I cut to the chase
"Are you breaking up with me?"

I really hope that he wasn't. I really love him and I wasn't going to let him go that easily this time.

His eyes widened and he shook his head as fast as he could.
I let out a breath of relief.
Good. I said to myself.

"No no no no no. I was gonna tell you about that thing we talked about at the wedding. What I said I messed with almost everyday" he was finally telling me about that? I had asked him so many times but he never told me.

I smiled and said
"Good because I'm not letting you go and it'll be easier if you want to stay. And finally! I've been dying to know for so long" He laughed nervously and said
"So before the beach trip I bought this thing...I-I was going to give it to you while we were there but I accidentally left it at the house when we left for the restaurant. Even after you told me you were leaving I was planing on giving it to you. But then we kinda broke up so that didn't happen." He stopped for a minute and scratched the back of his neck before he continued
"So while you were gone I was messing with this so called 'object' almost everyday wondering what would have happened if I would have ended up giving it to you. So now that your back I want to give this to you. But first I would like to say how much I love you. I know we haven't known each other for that long but I don't know what I would do without you. For those few months that you where gone I forgot who I was. I was no one without you and I never want to be without you again. So..."

His speech caught me off guard but it was so sweet. What he did next was so surprising.

He got up and pulled something out of his pocket as he kneeled in front of me and asked
"Would you do me the honors of becoming my wife?" I gasped and raised my hands to my mouth. I froze.

He just proposed. He's wanted to propose ever since the beach house. He kept the ring even when I left him.

I couldn't speak and the look on his face wasn't good. It looked like he was doubting himself so I did the only thing I could.

I jumped on top of him making him fall backwards. He groaned and laughed at the same time.

"I'm guessing that's a yes?" I laughed and said
"You're an idiot if you ever thought that I would say no. You're the man of my dreams" he smiled and kissed me.

I was engaged. I was engaged. Crap my mom is gonna kill me!
"Crap" he then asked
"What?" I sighed and said
"My mom" he smiled and replied
"I got her permission" I whipped my head to the side and asked
"You did what? How?" He laughed and answered
"It doesn't matter" I nodded.

It really didn't. All that mattered was the man that was laying with me. The man that I was gonna get married to.

             The man that I loved.

The End.
