Beck began to strum the guitar and leaned into the microphone, he looked at Tori across the room.

"A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade"

Tori started to smile wider than she thought she ever had, "It's our song!" she mouthed him and Beck nodded as he continued to sing.

"Laying everybody low with a lovesong that he made

Finds a streetlight steps out of the shade

Says something like you and me babe how about it?

Juliet says hey it's Romeo, you nearly gimme me a heart attack

He's underneath the window she's singing hey la my boyfriend's back

You shouldn't come around here singing up at people like that

Anyway what you gonna do about it?"

Tori and their friends stood up and got closer to the stage, Beck locked his eyes on Tori and kept them there.

"Juliet the dice were loaded from the start

And I bet and you exploded in my heart

And I forget I forget the movie song

When you gonna realise it was just that the time was wrong Juliet?

Come up on different streets they both were streets of shame

Both dirty both mean yes and the dream was just the same

And I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real

How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals?

When you can fall for chains of silver you can fall for chains of gold

You can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold

You promised me everything you promised me thick and thin yeah

Now you just say oh Romeo yeah you know I used to have a scene with him

Juliet when we made love you used to cry

You said I love you like the stars above, I'll love you till I die

And there's a place for us, you know the movie song

When you gonna realise it was just that the time was wrong Juliet?

I can't do the talk like they talk on tv

And I can't do a love song like the way it's meant to be

I can't do everything but I'd do anything for you

I can't do anything except be in love with you

And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be

All I do is keep the beat, the bad company

And all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme

Juliet I'd do the stars with you any time

Juliet when we made love you used to cry

You said I love you like the stars above and I'll love you till I die

There's a place for us you know the movie song

When you gonna realise it was just that the time was wrong Juliet?"

Beck stood up from the stool and put down the guitar, he stopped looking at Tori to face the audience. "I dedicated this song to my girlfriend because it means a lot to us, it brought us together, well this and our crazy teacher." The audience laughed, "but I realised within weeks of us being together that I didn't want Tori to be my girlfriend."

Tori's mouth made an 'o' shape, she didn't see the sparkle of Beck's eyes or the expectant smiles of their friends.

"I wanted her to be my fiancé, and one day, my wife." Tori's eyes widened with shock, her hands flew to her mouth. Beck stepped down from the stage and began to sing again, getting closer to her with every line

"A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade

Laying everybody low with a lovesong that he made

Finds a convenient streetlight steps out of the shade"

Beck knelt down on one knee in front of Tori and looked up her, microphone in one hand a small box in the other. He popped the lid open and held it up to her.

"Says something like you and me babe how about it?"

Tori stared at him, in a stunned silence she looked at the box and the ring. The same ring she had seen in the shop that day, the ring a young man had bought and that she may see again one day. Tears pricked the backs of her eyes, as she nodded. Their friends gathered around them and the others in the bar craned to see.

The strangers watched on as the boy with the fluffy hair slipped a ring onto the hand of the long haired girl. Tori looked down at her newly ring-clad hand, it fit perfectly, stopping just over the middle of her 'B' tattoo. She wrapped her arms around Beck's neck and pulled him into a kiss. It was soft and slow, perfect in every way.

Beck picked Tori up by her waist and spun her around, her dress making waves in the air. Out the corner of his eye Beck saw a man with blonde hair leaving, but he didn't care, he had the rest of his life with the girl in his arms.

Tori sat in aeroplane seat and rested her head back, she held up her hand in front of her. It still hadn't hit her that Beck had proposed or that she's accepted, but like everything between them, it just felt right. It felt like the best decision she had ever made.

Beck slept in his seat, head on Tori's shoulder, she put her hand on his knee. "Guess I really wore you out last night, huh?" she whispered to him with a smile. A book stuck out of his carry on, under closer inspection she found that it was To Kill A Mockingbird.

Tori pulled it out and small envelope fell onto her lap, on the front 'Beckett' was scrawled in chaotic handwriting. She opened it up and found a letter,

"To Beckett, or should I call you Beck now?

I know my time is approaching but, are some things I want you to know. I have never liked Jade, nor do I think she is the girl for you. Someone better is out there, someone perfect, and when you find her, treat her well. Take her somewhere she has always wanted to go, buy her dinner and buy her a ring. The perfect time will come and whether I'm here to see it or not doesn't matter, I know you will be happy.

Promise me one thing, Beck, that you will read this book to your children and to their children, pass it down to them and tell them the story behind the book. Tell them about me. That is all I ask.

All my love, your Grandfather."

Tori put a hand to her mouth, Beck opened his eyes at the sound of her gasp. "Good reading?" he asked, Tori looked around in shock, "I am so sorry, Beck. I shouldn't have read it, I'm sorry." She handed him the letter and envelope, running her hands through her hair.

"It's okay," Beck said as he put an arm round her shoulder, "I was going to let you read it anyway. I think he would have been proud and he would have loved you, I know that for sure." Tori smiled and cuddled up to him; looking out of the plane window all she saw was their future.
