Mischa's POV

"Mischa where are you going?" Heaven asked me while I'm putting on my makeup. She's changing her clothes, I can see it on the mirror.

"I have a date" I'm waiting for her reaction but I didn't found any.

"Okay, you take care and please buy me ramyun on your way home" she said then walked out of my door gently.

What's wrong with her?

I asked myself confused. Last month when I told her that I'll be dating David she got mad, now she's calmer than ever, I wonder what's going on through her mind. Somehow it made me kind of upset for not seeing her jealous side. I looked at myself for one last time. I'm done putting on my make up so I stood up and about to text him when my phone vibrated.

Mischa I'm already here at the lobby. I mentally read the message.

I walked out of my door immediately, Heaven's watching Adventure time with Potchi.

"I have to go!" I said and didn't waited for her response.

David welcomed me with a kiss on my cheek as soon as I arrived at the lobby, as usual he's gorgeous than ever. I'm excited to know what kind of place he's going to bring me. After minutes of traveling, I frowned when I realized that we're heading to a port.

"Do you mind if I ask where are we heading?" I said calmly. He reached for my hand then pressed it gently.

"That's a secret" I smiled in understanding, I know it'll be a surprise and I'm so excited, when it comes to him a surprise is an understatement. He has the capacity to make me feel like I am the most precious and loved person in the while world, his effort when it comes to our date is so overwhelming. I suddenly remember Heaven, yes she made me happy on our simple date but David is the perfect boyfriend material, he even passed the husband material because he's really everything that I wanted to.

"Close your eyes please" he said gently, I obliged with all my heart.

"Do you mind if I cover your eyes with a handkerchief?" He whispered to my ears, it made me shiver in a different level, oh I want to feel his lips on my earlobe. I'm sure it'll made me wet. I nodded hastily. He chuckled before tying the hanky on my eyes. After that, he led me to outside of the car and I didn't know what happened next, I just kept on walking beside me while clinging on his shoulder. After ten minutes, I'm not sure of it but that's what I counted. He removed the hanky from my eyes and I'm astounded to what I saw.

We're in the middle of the ocean, again I'm not sure if we're already in the middle but it's enough to say that we can't see anything but darkness.

We're in his yacht, there's a white board that enables the projector to show us the movie. My eyes widen in disbelief, I don't know what to say because I am so amazed by what's in front of me.

"This is the secret that I told you about when you asked me where I am" he explained then pulled the chair to allow me to sit.

"I'm so overwhelmed by this David, this is... This is amazing" I said while shaking my head in so much joy. He sat on the chair as well facing me.

"I'll do anything for you Mischa" he said then grasped my hands gently. I gave him a sultry smile.

"What are we going to watch?" I asked him excitedly.

"Your favorite movie, the one that you wished to watch with the one you love" my eyes widen, the notebook! My mind said. He pressed the play button and the movie started. I haven't watched this movie before though I really want to watch it. I told him about it on our first date. I never imagined that he will make this effort. I feel like I'm a princess. He moved his chair beside me to be able to watch the movie as well.

"I haven't watch that too, so it's both our first time" he said then reached for my hand again. The waiter gave us a popcorn and lemonade. I so love this movie experience.

"I'm glad that I get to watch it with you David" I said pressing his hard hand. He gave me a gentle smile and motioned me to enjoy the movie. I'm not ashamed when I cried during the show, I also giggle when the protagonists met again.

"Ryan Gosling is really handsome" I said when the movie ended.

"Yeah, the movie is great" he said then wiped the residue of popcorn on the corner of my lips. I blushed, good thing the lights were dim.

"Thank you for this wonderful surprise David" I said happily. I want to hug him but I'm too shy. I don't want to look easy on his eyes. He smiled at me then reached for the remote, he played another video but now it's Yiruma's concert. I so love him, when he's playing it's like he's talking to you. I don't know if he really knows that I like him or it's just pure coincidence. He stood up and removed the popcorn, I'm surprised when he wore an apron.

Oh my gosh, is he gonna cook for me? I asked myself.

"Tonight I'm gonna cook something for you mademoiselle" he said again using his British accent. He looks cute right now. I love men who knows how to cook. He reached for the streaky steaks.

"What are you gonna cook?" I asked him excitedly.

"It's British pork cassoulet"

"Oh" was all I said. I'm not into cassoulet's but not because I don't like it. I just preferred something else to eat when I'm at home or restaurants. But tonight it's different because he's gonna cook it just for me. Judging by the way he moves I think he's a pro. It doesn't took him an hour to prepare because most of the ingredients were already precooked.

When he's done with the cassoulet he then prepared the Caesar salad and wine. I can smell the food and it made me hungry already though I just ate popcorn.

He poured the red wine on my glass before sitting down in front of me. There's a bit of swear on his left temple and he looks hot on it.

"Let's eat, I hope you'll like it"

"Sure, judging by the looks of it I'm sure I will" I said before slicing the pork. I closed my eyes to savor the taste and my expectation doesn't fail me. It's the most delicious cassoulet that I ever tasted in my entire life, I know I'm exaggerating but that's what I'm feeling right now.

"So, how's your date with your cousin?" He asked me all of a sudden. The image of Heaven singing flashed in my mind.

"It's fun, I mean I haven't gone to that park, it's inside of the public school and I never thought that a cool place like that exist" I said chuckling.

"I've been there for a couple of times before, during my college years my friends and I go there to relax" he said before sipping his wine. My eyes widen in disbelief.

"So you already tasted the intestines and eggs there?" I asked amused.

"Yeah, barbecue is one of the foods that I like there, especially when you dip it on vinegar with lots of other customers saliva" he joked, I laughed by what he said.

Eww gross. My mind said afterwards. He's really funny.

"Anyways, have you found your sister?"

"Nope, actually we stopped finding her" he said nonchalantly. I suddenly stopped slicing the pork.

"Why?" I asked curiously.

"We know she's fine so we don't have to worry about her" he said as he leaned forward to continue slicing my pork.

"Thank you" I said sweetly.

"Then how did you know that she's fine?" I asked confused, he smiled at me simply.

"We know because she's using her credit card"

"Oh" was all I said.

"But credit card can be stolen right?"

"Yeah, but the credit card that she owns can't be used by others, it contains permission plus my parents pay her bills so there would be alerts every time she used it" he's now drinking his wine.

"I want to try that kind of credit card too" I'm a careless person so I should apply to that bank.

"Sure, I'll bring you there next week" he said chuckling.

We fell silent after that. I gazed everywhere, I don't know where were we at this moment because the yacht is continuously moving but I'm not afraid. Whenever I'm with him I feel like I'm safe. The waiter removed the plates and left only the wine. When the song river flows in you played he stood up.

"Will you dance with me?" He said flashing his gorgeous smile then reached for my hand, I nodded then stood up.

He pulled me closer and my feet automatically followed his every moves, I closed my eyes while leaning my head on his shoulders. This is the best date ever, he's the best man that I ever met. I feel comfortable with him and I don't want this moment to end.

When the music stopped he retreated just enough to face me. He picked something inside his pocket and my eyes widen when I saw what he's holding. It's a white gold ring.

Is he gonna propose? But we're not lovers yet?! I asked my myself. I waited for him to say something.

"Mischa Lewis, I know for you it's a bit sudden but for me, I waited for twenty five years just to find the girl that I would fall in love with" he paused. I think I'm gonna cry right now.

"And now I can finally say that I found that one person who can make my heart skip a beat, the one who made me smile whenever I think of her and that's you Mischa Lewis" he reached for my right hand, he was about to put the ring when he saw the ring that Heaven gave me.

Oh no.

I was about to explain about the ring when he smiled at me then removed the ring on my pinky finger. There's a part of me that became sad when he removed it but I didn't voiced it out. What's more important is the ring that he's about to give me.

"Mischa I love you, will you be my girlfriend?" He said while putting the ring on my finger. This is the moment that I've been waiting for my whole twenty years of existence.

"Yes David, I love you too!" I said before hugging him tight.

"Thank you Mischa, you made me the happiest man today!" He said as he caressed my back. We retreated after a while then he gave me a passionate kiss, a kiss that made me shiver, a kiss that made me want him more. If he's gonna ask for my virginity today I will give it to him wholeheartedly.

But that moment didn't come, after we became official lovers we just talked and had some nice mango cake and champagne for dessert. I'm not disappointed because I can wait for it to happen, I'm sure that we'll go there eventually.

I sighed when the time comes that we have to head home, it too us thirty minutes to get back to the port plus another thirty minutes back to my house.

He stepped outside of the car first to open my door, I gave him a thankful smile.

"Thank you for this wonderful night David"

"I should be the one thanking you Mischa" he said as he reached for my hand once again.

"I'll walk you up to your floor" he offered.

"Sure" I said as we walked to the elevator, I always loved my floor but this time I regret it, I want to be with him more but my unit is on the second floor only. We walked in silence until we reached my front door.

"Do you want coffee?" I offered but he refused politely.

"I'll call you tomorrow okay? Sleep tight and sweet dreams honey" I blushed by his endearment.

"Same to you, good night" I said then gave him a peck on his lips. I waited for him to enter the elevator before closing my door. I giggled remembering the scene at the yacht.

I swear, I'm the happiest girl on earth right now. The lights were dim and Heaven was already asleep on the couch. I suddenly remember the ring that she gave me. I reached for my purse and put it on my pinky finger. I don't want her to be upset if she saw that I'm not wearing it, I'll just remove it whenever I'm with David. I looked at my hand to compare the two,

"Impossible!" I blurted when I noticed that the two ring was identical. The only difference is Heavens ring was silver.

"This is Winston" I mumbled frowning. I will not be surprised if David gave me a Winston because he can afford it but Heaven couldn't even buy a piece of her clothes right now.

Of course Heaven gave you an imitation stupid! My mind suggested.

"Well you have a point there, but the design is the same" I argued to myself. This is so coincidental but the best answer to my question is what my mind suggested.

I'm glad David didn't notice it when he removed the ring. I sighed before giving Heaven a final glance, I was about to walk to my room when I bent down.

"Thanks for the ring Heaven" I whispered then kissed her cheek lightly. I don't want to show her that I'm glad though what she gave me is cheaper.

****

"Good morning Mischa!" I looked at her frowning, I'm scratching my eyes because it's a bit itchy, my hair is all messed up and I know that my breath doesn't smell good. She's so active in the morning.

"Morning" was all I said, I walked directly to the kitchen to make myself a cup of coffee.

"I already made you a coffee and sandwich!" She said ecstatically. I yawned once again. She pulled a chair to enable me to sit.

"I don't feel like eating sandwich right now" I said slowly but in a sweeter way, I don't know why but I woke up today happy.

Because David and you were lovers now! My mind responds. My sleepy mode faded when I remembered. I thought it's a dream.

"So what do you want to eat now?" I gazed at her, she's sitting near me and smiling.

I'm so so so happy, but I shouldn't tell her the reason behind that, I'm sure she'll be sad if she finds out. My hand automatically put the strand of her hair on the back of her ear, I don't know why but I feel the need to touch her. I know she's confused by my gestures right now but I know that she enjoys it. My hand then traced her jaw line then to her lips.

It's been months since we last kissed. I said to myself.

"I want cereals please" I said in a sultry voice.

"Sure!" She said after a minute of savoring my hand on her face. I watched her as she put the cereal on the bowl then poured the fresh milk while whistling. I frowned when I noticed what she's wearing.

"Here" she said before putting down the food in front of me.

"Aren't you going to school? Why aren't you wearing your uniform? It's Monday today" she's wearing a red and black striped long sleeves, faded denim jeans and a black wig. How come I didn't notice it a while ago? I asked myself.

I arched my brow when I saw that she has fake bite marks on her left neck.

"Are you portraying someone?" I asked as I took a scoop of my cereal.

"Yes, do you know this character?" she said then turned around to enable me to figure out who might she be. I massaged my chin to think.

"I give up. I don't remember" I said shaking my head. She snorted.

"Adventure time" she gave me a clue.

"Ah! Princess bubblegum!" I blurted. She rolled her eyes at me.

"Hey! don't roll your eyes at me" I snapped at her.

"Do I look like a princess?!" She said scratching her head.

"Oh I'm so sorry, but have you ever wondered if I'm watching that children show?" Duh!" I said then took a scoop again of my cereal.

"I am Marceline! The vampire queen!" She said sighing. I chuckled lightly.

"What's funny?" I pointed at her.

"Again have you ever wondered if that Marceline looked like a queen? She doesn't even passed the princess' criteria judging the way she looked so you can't blame me if I didn't get the right answer" I said cockily.

"Still! She's the coolest character on that show!" She said childishly.

"I won't argue to a child like you" I said then gazed at her from head to toe, in fairness she looks cute.

"You won't win on a Cosplay competition trust me" she looked at me puzzled, I gave her a questioning look.

"I'm not attending a Cosplay competition"

"Then why are you wearing that costume?" She gave me a sly smile.

"I am not the only one who's gonna wear a costume, you're doing it too" she said as she reached for the sandwich that she made for me.

"What? Why?" I will never wear that Marceline costume.

"We're going to an orphanage, that's our activity for the month. As a pageant winner and you as part of student org. We're both obliged to join" she explained patiently.

"Crap, I forgot" I said tapping my forehead.

"So adventure time was the theme? What am I gonna wear?"

"You're princess bubblegum" she said simply. I now remember her, she's the princess with the pointed crown and pink hair.

"I don't wanna wear her dress, it's ugly" she smiled at me.

"I know you'll not like that dress"

"So what am I gonna wear?" I asked her curiously. She walked out of the kitchen to get the costume. After a couple of minutes she arrived.

"Here" she showed me a piece of pink pants and jacket plus the crown and the pink wig.

"That costume doesn't make me look like a princess except the crown, are you sure they will know my character?" I said then reached for the wig.

"Yes, that's exactly the same costume of PB when she's not wearing her dress. And don't worry the children's of the orphanage requested this theme so I'm sure that they'll know your character" she explained patiently.

"I'd prefer frozen" I argued. I portrayed Elsa last year while my friend Michelle was Anna.

"That's last year's theme so we can't repeat that, you should take a bath now so we'll not be late, I'll prepare your things so don't worry about it okay?"

"Okay" I said then stood up afterwards. She's acting like she's my wife and it doesn't make me feel better because I want to be in that position, I want to take care of my husband. I want to be David's wife not Heavens.

I'm not surprised when I saw my costume lying smoothly on my bed, I dried my hair for minutes before putting on my favorite vanilla lotion.

"Oh, I didn't expect that pink hair will suit  me" I complimented myself when I put on my wig, I brushed it gently before putting on my crown. My attention was caught when I heard the sound of a base guitar. Of course it's Heaven but I don't know why she has that thing. She started strumming and the sound wasn't bad.

♪♫

Daddy, why did you eat my fries?
I bought them, and they were mine.
But you ate them, yeah, you ate my fries...
And I cried, but you didn't see me cry.
Daddy,
Do you even love me?
Well, I wish you'd show it, 'Cause I wouldn't know it.
What kind of dad eats his daughter's fries,
And doesn't even look her in the eyes?
Daddy, there were tears there.
If you saw them would you even care? ♪

"What kind of song is that?" I asked myself while chuckling, it's a funny song and her voice complemented with it. As soon as the song ended I'm done preparing so I walked out of my room. She was sitting on the couch still strumming something but she's not singing. She's watching Adventure time.

"So that base guitar is part of your costume and the funny song" I said when I saw the real Marceline on the TV,

"Yes, shall we go?" She said turning off the TV. I nodded then walked out the door first.

I was about to open the door of my car on the driver's seat when she stopped me.

"Let me drive" she offered.

"Why?" I asked her frowning.

"Do you even know how to drive?"

"Yes, I used to drive my aunt whenever she goes, I'm her slave you know" I didn't argue when she took my key, I'm not in the mood to drive because I'm wearing a crown. I sat on the other side of the car.

I picked up my phone to text David, He called me last night
