Chapter 24
Before I knew it, it was finally our one–year anniversary, the day 1 had been waiting for. I planned on telling Emily that I loved her today. I had been wanting to do that for long, but I didn’t want to freak her out. Our marriage had been amazing, but a part of me was scared that she might be waiting for the two years to be over to ask for a divorce. I had been doing whatever I could to prevent her from thinking about ending our relationship. It was imposed on her after all, but she had me wrapped around her fingers. She owned my heart, and I didn’t even want it back. I was completely and utterly hers
“Look at you.” I mumbled, approaching her once she finished getting ready. “You’re a fucking masterpiece, sunshine” I placed both my hands on her waist and kissed her lips.
“You do know how to boost my confidence,” She had a gorgeous smile that I always wanted to see on that beautiful face of hers.
“I love how your hair looks,” I told her.
“The only thing that is keeping me away from cutting it is you” she chuckled. It had gotten long and I loved the way it looked on her. She was my linle Rapunzel with her dazzling green eyes and gold locks.
“Ready to go!” She nodded, smiling,
“But before we go, I want to give you something For a moment, she disappeared in our dressing room, then she came back with a small square box. “It’s not much, but I noticed that you like them, so I thought I should get you one”
She seemed nervous as she gave me what she got me. She didn’t know that I was going to love whatever was in the box. I was already in love with the box because it was simply from her
I smiled when I saw what was in the box. It was a gold and leather Versace bracelet.
“This is officially my favorite bracelet,” I said, handing it to her. Put it around my wrist Carefully, she clasped the lock of the bracelet around my wrist, and I closed the space between us, pulling her into a kiss
I wanted to tell her that I loved her, but I needed to wait for our date. I wanted that moment to be special.
tips to kiss it.
“Let’s go, sunshine.” I intertwined our fingers together and brought her hand to my lips to kiss
We headed outside. The driver wasn’t waiting for us since I wanted in to have our own privacy. What she didn’t know was that there was another car waiting in front of our front door. A new Range Rover for her..
“Did you get a new car?” she wondered, looking at me.
I hated how my wife did not ask me for anything. I hated how she did not like spending my money, I wanted to spoil the hell out of her, but she didn’t give me any chance.
“Yes, but it’s not for me.” I dug my hand in my pocket and got the keys out. “Happy anniversary, sunshine” The way her green eyes widened made my heart skip a beat
“Julian, this is… I can’t accept this, she whispered, looking at me as she shook her head.
“And why is that?” I wondered, reaching for her hand.
is so expensive and I will never be able to get you something like it,” she explained
“Because
This is
“And who said I want anything more than what you’re giving me?” I wrapped her in my embrace.
“What am I giving you?” She frowned.
“You shower me with your kindness and care. You share with me everything I go through. You make amazing dishes. She chuckled at the last part “What else am I supposed to wish for!”
“I. I don’t know what to say.” She looked down. It was easy to make her cheeks glow with a beautiful pinkish shade.
“Say that you’ll accept my gift,” I told her.
- I will accept the gift. Thank you, Julian Tloved it whenever she initiated the kissing. She was a gift sent to me out of nowhere, but I was thankful for her presence in my life. What was my life going to be like without her? She was everything I had ever wished for in a partner.
“Will you drive us to our destination?” I asked, earning a nod from her.
I could see the excitement in her eyes as we both got in the car. She loved it. It was obvious all over her flawless face.
I put the destination in the car CPS, and she started driving, I could tell that she was nervous but happy. I knew that she was going to love the car because she once told me that it was her favorite brand. I actually had a notebook in which I wrote down all of her preferences to know what to gift her. She deserved to be treated right and I was going to do that.

Chapter 21
After a while, we arrived at our destination. I planned a rooftop dinner date. It was one of her favorite types of dates. We were once watching a movie and the way she acted upon seeing the rooftop date that was in it made me want to give her a better one
The valet took the car and the two of us headed towards the elevator. I was nervous because the moment I had been waiting for was getting closer. I was scared of how she might react, but it was now or never. Fhad been waiting for so long.
“Oh my.” She had her hand placed over her chest in surprise as she took in her surroundings. Fairy lights lit up the whole roof, the table sheet was her favorite shade of green and even the cooked food was her favorite, but she did not know that yet.
“You like rooftop dates, don’t you?” I wondered, looking at her. She turned to look at me and I swear, her beauty intensited ten times whenever she was truly happy
“I love them!” she exclaimed and leaned in to kiss my lips.
And I love you, I
. I wanted
to tell her, but I forced myself to wait
I wrapped my arms around her and
her back, taking in her sweet taste:
I pulled her chair for her, and she sat down, then I did the same.
Nobody was around. I requested the food to be left for us on the table and not to have anybody with us. I wanted us to have all the privacy we could
gel.
“You’re setting the bar so high. Julian,” she said, smiling at me. “How could any future dates compete with this?” I sulled when she said that and she must have noticed the way my face fell. “Let me rephrase what I’ve said. How could any future dates with you compete with this?”
“As long as they’re with me, I’m willing to go overboard for you.” It was easy to make Emily blush and I loved that.
“Can you believe that we’ve actually been married for a year?” she said as we ate.
“Time flies.” She nodded at my words. “Are you still waiting for the two years to be over?” I couldn’t help but ask. I was petrified that she might turn me down.
“Honestly, her eyes met mine and I sucked in a breath, “na. A sight of relief escaped me.
“Do you want to dance?” I asked her after we finished eating.
“I would love that.” She loved dancing a lot and it killed me that I did not dance with her enough on our wedding day, but that was a problem i could easily solve. I could give her another wedding if she wanted.
“There’s something I want to tell you. I took a deep breath as we both stopped dancing.
“What is it?” the wondered.
“We have been married for a year now and during this year, my feelings for you have changed. They went from not wanting to be in the same place as you to not wanting to be anywhere without you. There is only one way to say this and I’m praying with everything in me that you won’t freak Our I took a shaky breath and kept my eyes fixated on hers. “I love you. Emily.” Her gorgeous green eyes widened in surprise.
“W–What?” she stammered.
“I know you may be thinking that this is fast, and I may not be sure of what I’m feeling, but I love you. You won my heart without doing anything but being yourself. You are a source of joy in my life, and I consider myself the luckiest man alive for having you as my wife. You don’t have to say anything back. I just want you to know that I love you and I wish that you’d be my Rapunzel and I be your Eugene Her eyes brimmed with tears and I started to worry that it was still too soon to pour my heart out to her.
“I love you so much.” My wife threw herself in my arms and I quickly embraced her. She said it back. She loved me. “I love you and I don’t want anybody else to be my Eugene but you,” she whispered, making my heart dance with pure joy.
“Are you a hundred percent mine, sunshine?” I asked as she slowly pulled herself away from me
“I’ve been a hundred percent yours since Christmas, but I couldn’t say anything,” she admitted. It was my turn to be surprised, Christmas? That was almost six months ago
“Sorry
that I made you wait this long.” I murmured, leaning in to kiss her. I was looking forward to the kind of life that we were going to have
jogether.
