"I came here to tell you.... That I still love you"
It was deadly quite for a couple of moments as Kadie stood there in shock
"What- excuse me - what?"
"I still love you, and I know I probably shouldn't even be here telling you this, I mean your with Sebastian, an amazing guy. But after seeing you last night I knew I'd regret for the rest of my life if I didn't tell you"
"Harry"
"I know, I know a million times over that what I did was horrible and the worst possible thing I ever could have done"
"Harry. Your the one that ruined our relationship, you cheated on me a week before we were going to get married for gods sake"
"I know, trust me Tilly I know. But I have loved you ever since I met you, I've loved you every day over these past three years, I tried to move on but I couldn't. It's you Kades, it's always you and it always will be"
It was silent again as Kadie stood there in shock "you know uhh, your really not supposed to be on this set"
"I'm sorry, I know that this is the wrong timing and the wrong place. But I had to tell you. I want to spend the rest of my life with you, I want to marry you"
"Oh god" Kadie mumbled, rubbing the top of her head as she panicked
"I know this is crazy but, am I too late?"
"Yes your too late, where was all this three years ago?"
"I was an idiot. And I tried to move on, I really did. But I just couldn't. Even writing music, every time I sat down to write they would always end up being about you"
"Listen Harry, I'm sorry but this just can't happen"
"Ok and I'm sorry. And I will a hundred percent walk away, but only, if you tell me Sebastian is willing to give you everything I am"
"Well of course he is" Kadie said really sceptically "marriage is all he talks about, my god, in fact I'm actually the one that's making him wait"
"You are? Why?"
"Why? Because of the government and all that"

That night, Kadie and Sebastian were down at the restaurant in the hotel, having dinner.
"So, uhh, that marriage stuff you were saying yesterday, you don't actually believe that do you?" Kadie asked
"Sure I do, in face I think the whole concept of marriage is unnatural. I mean look at pigs, let's take a moment here and look at pigs, they don't mate for life, they could have 100 sexual partners in their lifetime and that's just an ordinary pig too"
"So, are you honestly telling me that you might never want to get married?"
"Well never say never but probably, yeah never"
"Oh my god. Then what are we even doing? What is this" She said motioning to the two of them
"Calm down Kades, we're doing fine"
"Oh my god, ok I need to go" Kadie said, quickly grabbing her bag and bolting from the room.
****
"Ugh!" Kadie yelled as she went through the front door of Scarlett's apartment
"Hey Kades, what's up"
"I'm just having one of those days where you realise your in a dead end relationship"
"Sebastian?"
"It's not like I want to get married tomorrow, but I'd like to know that I'm in a relationship that's actually going somewhere, that I'm not just wasting my time"
"Well you know Seb"
"No I don't know Sebastian. Not anymore, it's like something over the last day or two has changed"
"Maybe you've changed"
"I didn't change"
"Well maybe that's the problem" Scarlett shrugged. She was doing a better job of acting casual than Chris and Sebastian did earlier, but she also wasn't making a lot of sense
"What?"
"Sebastian is a complex fello, one who is unlikely to take a wife"
"Well what does he think, does he think I'm just going to wait around forever?"
"Kadie face it, Sebastian is against marriage and always will be"
Neither of them said anything as Kadie looked lost in thought for a minute
"Well there's some people who do want to marry me" Kadie said, grabbing her bag
"There are?"
"Yeah, Harry"
"Harry said he wants to marry you?" She stuttered out
"Yep"
"And Sebastian is telling you how much he hates marriage?"
"That's right"
"Sebastian love's marriage!" She yelled
"You just told me that he hates marriage, that he's a complex fello who's unlikely to ever take a wife, that he's against marriage and always will be"
"You got that from what I said?"
"I'm going, I'll talk to you later" Kadie said and with that she walked out of the apartment.
****
"Where the hell have you been!" Scarlett yelled as Sebastian came into the apartment a while later
"I was in costume alterations"
"Harry told Kadie he wants to marry her!" She yelled
"What?"
"Yeah, and I've been looking for you everywhere to try find you and tell you to stop messing with her!"
"Oh my god!"
"I know!"
"He's not supposed to ask my girlfriend to marry him, I'm supposed to do that!" Sebastian yelled
"I know!"
"You know what I'm going to do, I'm going to go over there and kick his ass" Sebastian yelled, Scarlett just raised one eye brow
"Seb you wouldn't hurt a fly, as much as I would love to see that though. Just go and find Kadie"
"Your right, your right" Sebastian said, and ran to the opposite side of the room "I'm going to get the ring, I'm going to go find her and I'm just going to propose" He said as he sprinted out of the apartment
****
On the other side of town. In a much larger hotel, Harry was lying on his couch, reading a book when a knock came from the door
"Hi" Kadie said when the door opened
"Hi" Harry responded, a small smile coming across his face
"I don't know why I'm here"
"I didn't ask that Tilly, do you want to come in?" He said with a warm smile
"I don't know" Kadie shrugged
"Oh ok then, well I'll just leave the door open and sit on the couch"
"Sebastian is such an idiot" Kadie mumbled
"Drink?" Harry asked
"Yes please, I'll have a scotch- "
"On the rocks with a twist, I remember"
"So Kadie, let me ask you a question, since we broke up, did you ever think about me?"
"Yeah, your music plays on the radio a lot"
"Do you ever think about me in a none singer way?"
"I uhh... no. Cause getting over you was one of the hardest things I've done, so I just blocked you out in that way"
****
"This is so dumb, I'm at the stage in my life where I need to be with someone who wants the same things in life as me" Kadie complained, walking around the living room by the windows as Harry leaned against the table
"I think that's fair" he said
"Fair? Please don't even talk to me about fair. Fair would have been you marrying me back then, or fair would be Sebastian wanting to marry me now. Believe me, nothing about this is fair at all"
"I don't know" Kadie mumbled, crossing her arms over her stomach "I don't know"
"I know" Harry said
"Yeah I... I just have to figure out some stuff before I can uh" Kadie said, grabbing her bag off the couch
"I understand" Harry nodded "take as much time as you need. I'll be here"
20 minutes later
Twenty minutes later, another knock came from the door. Harry ran over to open it
"Where is she?" Sebastian said once the door opened "Where's Kadie" Sebastian walked in and past Harry
"She's not here, and please do come in"
"Scotch on the rocks with a twist" Sebastian said, looking down at the cup on the coffee table "Kadie are you here?"
"She was here, but she left"
"Where did she go?"
"Well she said she has to think things over"
"I can't believe this, I thought you were a good guy?"
"Look nothing happened"
"Nothing happened yeah? So you didn't tell my girlfriend that you love her?"
"Well I guess one thing happened"
"I can't believe you. Kadie is out there thinking things over about our relationship and you did this to her"
"Well I'm sorry" Harry said genuinely
"Well what does she have to think about? I love her" Sebastian said, his voice breaking slightly
"Well apparently I am willing to offer her things that you are not"
"But I am willing to give her all those things, ten times over if she wants. This was all just a plan to throw her off course so when i offer her all these things she'd be surprised"
"Well if it helps, it worked very well"
"It was working until you showed up you big tree. This ain't fair, you had your chance. You had your chance with her and you blew it! And this is my chance and I am not going to blow it because we are meant for each other. I was going to propose tonight" Sebastian yelled, as he finished he sat down at the end of the couch
"You were going to propose?" Harry asked, sitting down on the opposite end
"Yeah I got a ring" he said, taking the ring out of his pocket and putting it down on the space between them "did you get a ring?"
"No I didn't get a ring" Harry sighed
Neither of them said anything. Both were lost in thought
"You go get her Sebastian" Harry said after a minute "and can I give you a piece of advice? If you do get her, never let her go"
"You know Harry, you are a good guy"
"Thank you"
****
Sebastian came sprinting down the hallway of the apartments. Ring in hand. Chris had just walked out of Kadie's apartment with a bag of trash
"Seb"
"I can't talk right now, I need to find Kadie"
"Sebastian shes gone" Chris said
"What?"
"She's gone, she had a bag and she left"
"What the hell are you talking about?"
"She was crying and she said that you guys want different things and she needs time to think"
"Well why didn't you stop her?" He said, raising his voice "why didn't you just tell her it was a plan?"
"I did! I told her everything Sebastian but she wouldn't believe me"
"Well where - where did she go?"
"She's flying out to Kim's house, but she said you shouldn't call her, but if I were you I would"
"Oh my god, I can't believe I ruined this" Sebastian said, tears forming in his eyes as he rocked back and forth on the soles of his feet
"I'm so sorry man" Chris said, getting equally upset.
Sebastian sent a small nod at Chris before turning around and walking into his apartment.
Candles. Candles covered the whole room, all the counters and some of the ground, the lights were off, the only light coming from the candles. Standing across the room beside the window was Kadie.
"You said you wanted it to be a surprise" She smiled
