"(y/n)!" Clarke call waking me up from my day dreaming. "It's time" This is it. Don't blow this (y/n/n). I take my guitar and walk up on the small stage. My girlfriend - Lexa - was sitting at the front together with the rest of my friends. She didn't know what was about to come but I could see it in her eyes that she was excited to see me preform. I've planed this number for quite a while now, I want it to be perfect. Lexa deserves that.

Lexa and I meet in high school, we were both athletes. I was the captain of the football team and Lexa was the newest edition to our team. Most of the team didn't like her, due to the fact that she was better then all of them, they were scared that Lexa would ruin their chances of getting a scholarship. I on the other hand welcomed her to the team and the school and soon enough we became close friends. She opened up about her diseased parents and the pressure she received from her foster dad Titus. I told her about my dreams, my biggest fear, my biggest insecurity and my favorite flavor when it comes to ice cream.

One day when I was going to pick up Lexa for school - like I did everyday - I heard screaming coming from inside the large house. I rushed out of my car and burst into the house. Lexa and Titus were standing in the hallway, Lexa against a wall, being choked and hit by Titus.

"Get off of her you fucking pice of shit!" I shouted before my mind went black. When I regained my consciousness I was held by Lexa, sitting in the hall with blood covered clothes. I killed a man that day. The first few weeks was painful but it soon became something I didn't think of on the regular and when I do I don't feel as bad about it, that guy deserved to die. At least that's what I tell myself when these thoughts gets to real.

I step back into reality when Clarke push me forward and onto the stage, making the audience see me. I stand there frozen before I walk up to the mic.

"Uhm hi... I'm (y/n) (y/l/n) and I'm goi..." Being the center of attention wasn't something I enjoyed, unless it was something I could use to hide myself behind, like my football uniform or the words of someone else. But this was only me, me and my words. I look out at the crowd and settle my eyes on my girlfriend who was giving me an encouraging smile. I could see her mouth the words 'you got this'.

"I will be preforming a song I've been working on for quite some time now, it's about the best thing in my life, my biggest supporter and my personal comedian, my girlfriend Lexa Woods" I haven't even start singing yet and Lexa was already tearing up. "Baby, I love you and I'll always be with you! I hope you'll be with me too" Putting my hands on the right strings I start playing. All my nerves instantly fading away.

"I was six feet under for the one and only, spent the night feeling bitter, sad and lonely. Didn't realize how much fear controlled me, until you came and loved me like I'm holy. Now I'm ready to give love on more chance"

I swore to Lexa that I wouldn't let anyone hurt her ever again. I was terrified. So was she. We didn't know what would happen, or if we could ever hold each other again, all we knew was the feelings we had for each other, the butterflies our stomaches would feel every time we saw each other, the unbreakable bond with had with each other.

"Never thought I'd be high on life but sober, didn't think that I'd be able to turn this over. Let's make stories to talk about when we're older, come and rest your pretty head up on my shoulder. Now I'm ready to give life one more chance"

For a moment I thought I lost her, I thought it was over. I was going to jail and she was going back into the system. She didn't, I didn't. We were heard and believed and set freed. I'll never forget the day we walked out of court together, hand in hand, crying of happiness. We walked to our spot, a flower filed beside the football court.

"Lexa... I love you so much, god you have no idea how much you mean to me. I'm deeply, passionately and utterly in love with you Lexa Woods" My eyes were burning from all the crying and my nose was running miles on end but when Lexa leaned in to attach our lips, I've never felt happier. She was the one.

"Think my heart is beating me to death

I have got an arrow through my chest

I am so in love, I must confess

Say yes, say yes, say yes (say yes)

Think my heart is beating me to death

I have got an arrow through my chest

I am so in love, I must confess

Say yes, say yes"

I walk of the stage and down to my crying girlfriend before I go down on one knee and take out a ring box from my pocket. She is crying of happiness and she looks absolutely shocked.

"Think my heart is beating me to death

I have got an arrow through my chest

I am so in love, so just say yes"

I sing, finishing up the song before opening the box with the white diamond ring.

"Will you marry me?" With tears in my eyes I wait nervously for her answer which took less then a second to receive.

"Yes ! Yes yes yes yes yes! Of course!" She leans down to attach our lips just like all those years ago. We detach after a passionate make out and Lexa signals for me to stand up. "I love you so much baby! You have no idea how much you actually mean to me. I'm deeply, passionately and utterly in love with you (y/f/n)"
