I curl up on Mattheo's chest after we showered, pulling the duvet over us and I let out a content sigh.

Me and my boyfriend of 4 years had been now living together for 2 months after we left school.

Mattheo's dad had bought us a house. It was beautiful, huge and modern. We both loved it and took care of it with all the love in the world.

Our love was simple, dates atleast twice a week, cuddling before bed, random bouquets and gifts.

We were soul tied and I will always be thankful for him.

I watch TV, almost asleep when Mattheo shakes me awake.

I sit up next to him as he shows me something on his phone and explains.

"I was looking at this venue for your birthday party. I know it's in like 4 months, but it's pretty big and you can invite more people."

I smiled at him, looking at the place he was showing me. It was amazing.

We always plan ahead for both of our birthdays, and I really wanted a great party for my 25th.

"It's perfect. I love it, baby. I'll look into the prices tomorrow." I say, kissing his cheek and they tint pink.

"Hey, don't worry about that. If you like it, we'll have your party there. Anything for my wife."

I purse my lips, smiling.

"I wish. But it feels like your waiting a million years to propose." I joke, but I mean it.

I'm not insecure, but I really wish he would just lock things down with me.

Beautiful white dress, gorgeous flowers and vows. A long veil with little details, the perfect day with the perfect man.

"C'mon, babe. You know I love you, I just wanna take my time." He kissed my lips.

I fell asleep thinking of us.

• 4 months later, on Y/n's birthday •

I smile as Mattheo zips my dress up and kisses my shoulder.

"You look gorgeous, baby."

"I love you." I say, feeling like a literal princess today.

We had got that venue for today and the decorations were beautiful. Mostly pink, lots of balloons and a beautiful cake.

There was a dance floor and we had gotten a reallt good DJ, so today the party was on.

All of my friends and family start arriving, handing me gifts and wishing me a happy birthday as I thank them with all my heart.

I dance away with my friends, the men all chatting and laughing. The evening is perfect and soon, it's time for me to cut the cake.

Everyone gathers around as I step onto a small stage with Mattheo, who stops me just as I grab the knife.

He takes a mic from the DJ and I frown as he directs his next words to our audience.

"Just before my girl cuts her cake, I just wanna tell her how much I love her."

He smirks at me as I blush and the crowd cheers, making me laugh.

"Happy birthday, sweetheart." He says, now turning to me.

"This day is all about you, but I want to talk about us. I just wanna thank you for always being there for me, for always being a beautiful woman inside and out."

"You have never gave up on me, even though I can be difficult and I have no fucking doubt that you are the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with."

The audience coos and woos as I tear up and everyone gasps, including me as he gets down on one knee.

I am trembling inside; I've waited for this moment for so long that I can barely see his eyes meet mine as a tear rolls down my cheek.

"Your soul is meant for mine, sweetheart. I will always be here for you, you are my world and I love you so much."

"Don't cry, baby." He whispers, taking a black velvet box out of his pocket and opening it, gently taking my hand.

"I can't express how much I love you, y- you're everything to me. Y/n, will you marry me?" His voice cracks and I swear he tears up before blinking them away.

"Yes! I love you so much, Mattheo. A million times yes." My voice trembles but everyone starts cheering as he slips the beautiful diamond ring onto my finger.

He stands up and wipes my tears before kissing me, the moment just perfect.

After about an hour of commotion, I go back to my friends who are buzzing for me.

"You're so lucky, girl."

"I know." I say, sighing with a smile on my face, looking at my finger.

- After the party -

"Did you really not know?" Mattheo says, closing the door shut behind us after we arrived home.

But I didn't even respond, just throwing my arms around his neck and hugging him so tight.

Now, I could tell him how I felt, away from a crowd.

"Mattheo, I love you so much. You're perfect. I- I wouldn't want to share this moment with anyone else a- and I just love you."

It wasn't nearly as poetic as his speech, but tears were streaming down my cheeks with... pure emotion.

Not sadness, no. Just happiness and a feeling of... completion.

This was all I wanted. Him.

Nothing can truly show how much we love eachother, but feeling the slight heaviness on my finger meant something to me.

His embrace only gets tighter as he kisses me, and the moment is bliss as he carries me upstairs...
