So this has been in my head for a while and I just wanted to get it out. Let me know what you think.
The song is All I Wanted Was You by Paramore
Jade and tori have been together for a few years now. But Jade doesn't want to have to be the one to propose but she also doesn't want Tori to do it. So she asks if she can just do something so romantic and sweet that Tori would have no choice but to marry her and Tori says she can try. Recently Tori has done a movie and it premiering in New York.
TORI POV
It was a typical Tuesday, bright sun, nice weather, and an overall beautiful day. The new movie I had starred in was premiering in New York and Jade had just gotten here two days ago in order to be my date. But when I woke up this morning it was not to the pale faced beauty, but to a note written in her flowing handwriting.
Meet me on the Bow Bridge at 5:30pm, it's important.
P.S. Dress nicely
With love
~Jade
Hmm. Wonder what this is about.
I was standing on the Bow Bridge at 5:52, in a simple white cotton dress with a black bow under the bust, and there was still no sign of Jade. I haven't seen her since this morning and to be honest, I was starting to get a little worried. Trying to keep my mind on all of the awful scenarios running through my head, I observed the park below me. The water was clear and shimmering and there were a few occasional joggers running in the rapidly darkening sky, nothing out of the ordinary until I saw them.
I stood slightly shocked as what had to have been at least 200 people, all dressed in fine black suits, start to come across the bridge from both sides. I tried asking them what they were doing but none of them would udder a single word. A soft guitar chord started to play seemingly out of nowhere and the people in black started walking to the beat, with graceful dance like steps they glided pass each other in the center of the bridge, while I stood to the side not having any idea what was going on.
Suddenly I heard a familiar melodious voice begin to sing from my right.
"Think of me when you're out
When you're out there…
The people in black spread their arms during the short music intermission.
"I'll beg you nice from my knees…
The suited people then clapped their arms and went down to one knee and did a 180, then continued walking as if they were leaving the bridge. When they did this I could see a head of jet black hair ever so slowly making it's way towards me. Jade.
"And when the world treats you way to fairly
Well it's a shame I'm a dream…
The people in black then turned back inward and threw their hands in the air, wiggling their fingers as they slowly descended. Never once did any of them say a word.
"All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you…
All off a sudden there were drums and guitars blasting from speakers that I could now see in the trees. Red, blue, green, and yellow lights now danced about the now blackened stage seeing as the sun had completely disappeared. Suddenly two of the suit men grabbed me under my arms as the others ran about in a seemingly organized chaos. I screamed at the men to let me go and they just set me up on the railing. I felt one of them grab my hand and I looked down to see a certain Aladdin looking man smiling up at me Beck.
I Looking across to the other side of the bridge to see Jade coasting on the other railing with Cat following closely behind her. Jade began to sing again as we walked on our separate railings down the bridge. And the black suited people went back into a militaristic march to the beat of the music.
"I think I'll pace my apartment a few times…
Several poster-sized pictures were held up and I noticed it was sequenced shot of me pacing. After about three slides of me walking worriedly a picture of Jade stopping me by the shoulders pops up. I smile as I remember she told me to stop worrying because my pacing was irritating and that I would get the part. Turns out she was right.
"And fall asleep on the couch…
A picture of us sleeping together on the couch together was blown up and printed on three of the poster boards which were held up as she sang the lines.
"And wake up early to black and white reruns
That escape from my mouth.
Four of the posters were held up in a square formation and showed a picture of Jade holding me during one of the many horror movies we watched.
"All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you!
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you!
Beck helped me down from the railing see as we had made it to the end of the bridge and I started to walk towards Jade, only to have André grab my other hand and start running to the other side of the bridge with me being pulled by both of my friends. As the musical intermission continued I noticed Jade was no longer on her railing, but I couldn't find her seeing as all the other suited people had started running in what looked like practiced panic. Just as we were about to reach the end of the bridge we stopped and Jade started to sing again.
"I could follow you to the beginning
Just to relive the start
Pictures were put up all around me creating the janitors closet where we had first revealed our feelings to each other. Looking into a sea of black and white I could see the crowd start to part farther down as Jade walked towards me.
"Maybe then we'd remember to slow down…
The black clothed people, who had resumed in their scurrying, went in slow motion as she sang the line, making her easier to spot in the crowd. I could now see that she was wearing a simple blue dress and had the front part of her hair pulled up while the part that was left down hung in beautiful curls around her porcelain skin.
"At all of our favorite parts…
Suddenly all the people stopped running amuck and each of them held up a life size picture. Some were of Jade and I back in Hollywood Arts, some were from when we got our first apartment together and others were from dinners and parties and premiers from throughout the years. The best parts of our relationship. The music stopped and a path was made as Jade sang out the next line with a passion I didn't know she had.
"ALL I WANTED WAS YOU!
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you!
I ran to her. Wrapping my arms around her neck and hers automatically going to my waist as she continued to sing in my ear.
"All I wanted was you!
I could see tears in her eyes as she whispered the final verse with her whole heart.
"All I wanted was you..."
We were smiling at each other like fools, but I didn't really care. This was the best moment of my life right now.
"So was this romantic enough?" Jade questioned.
I starred at her, confused for a moment, until I remembered or little arrangement. Then I just softly pressed my lips to hers. She chuckled against my mouth.
"I guess I can take that as a 'yes' then?"
"Yes, I will marry you Jade." I told her as she pulled me into another kiss.
