CHAPTER 18- THE LONDON EYE

Start from the beginning
                                    

"I want to go all out when it comes to my girlfriend. Is that bad?" he said. He went to seat across me and a waiter delivered us the menu.

"I didn't know you were such a romanticist, Wu Yifan." 

"Well, it's just you who brings out the romanticist in me, Bae Joohyun." I flinched. He never calls me by my Korean name. Well, I never let him. I looked at the London Eye outside. It's only him who calls me by that name, I thought.

"Irene, is there something wrong?" Kris took my hand and looked at me.

I blinked and looked at the menu again. "Nothing. Let's order?" We talked while enjoying nice food and wine. After what seemed like a while, I asked him if we could walk around London Eye. He paid for our dinner and we left the restaurant.

I held on to his arms as we walked around.  It was a chilly night. "Can we ride the ferris wheel?" 

"Good thing I got the tickets for it. I know you'd ask." He took out two tickets from his pocket.

"You're not prepared aren't you?" I said sarcastically as I smiled and squinted at him. He laughed as he took my hand and gave the ticket to the man at the ferris wheel. He assissted me into one of the cars.

While we were inside, he stared at me. I was busy looking at our surroundings. Kris just kept watching me with a smile on his face. 

"Irene?" he called. "You know, you never told me what's so special about ferris wheels and why you like it."

My heart jumped. Yes, he knows I love ferris wheels but I never told him about Seokjin. "I just like it. No big reason behind. Omo! It stopped now. Let's go?" He helped me go down and led me at the center.

As we stood there, he suddenly snapped his finger. The lights suddenly danced in different colors, a small orchestra a few meters waya from us played a sweet music and a man handed Kris a bouquet of flowers and a small red box. "Kris, what is this?" I asked as Kris knelt in front of me and handed me the bouquet. "Hey, stand up. People are staring at us." I tapped his shoulder as I looked sideways, noticing people were already staring at us.

He took a deep breath and started speaking as he looked me in the eyes. "Irene Bae, I know I was rude the first time I met you, especially to you who is very shy. I know you are really beautiful. Even our classmates noticed it but I'm not one who easily falls because of physical beauty. You really proved me wrong when I thought you are just all looks. You are more than that. Much more than that. You are intelligent and you have such a beautiful heart. Who am I not to like you, much more fall in love with you? Thank you, for making me your bestfriend, and soon enough you even made me your boyfriend. But this time, will you allow me to be beside you for the rest of your life? I, I wanna be the last one you see at night and the first one you see when you wake up. The one who walks beside you through thick and thin, the one who takes care of you when you get sick and hugs you when its cold. Irene Bae, I, Kris Wu, am asking you, with the London Eye and the people around as our witnesses, will you marry me?" He opened the box and inside it was a pretty ring. I was dumbstruck. Is he really proposing right now? I smiled at him, after everything I have been through, he did make it easier to move on from Seokjin. He was my stronghold the one I hold on to for the past eight years. I've learned to love him after all these years eventhough it was difficult at first.

I made him stand up. "Kris Wu, yes, I will." I said.

His nervous smile became brighter. "Really?" I nodded. "Oh yes!" He hugged me tightly and I hugged him back. The people watching were clapping and cheering.

"Kris, okay now. Haha, its too tight. You are so excited." He let me go and said sorry.

"I'm just so happy." He took the ring from the box and placed it on my finger. "There you go. It looks a lot prettier on you." He hugged me again as London people and the big London Eye watched us as we got engaged.
