When we got to the flat I led him over to the couch and we sat down. With our hands still clasped, staring into each other's eyes, a tear slipped down my fragile pale cheek and landed on our joined hands below.
"What's wrong, aren't you happy?" Mark asked confused.
"Yes very, but there's one thing I don't understand." I said breaking the gaze.
"What?"
"Why me?" I asked after a moment, looking back into his confused eyes.
"What do you mean?"
"Mark you have the choice of many other more beautiful girls and you pick me, the average girl, who can't do anything right, is not pretty let alone beautiful, was disowned from her rich family, and isn't even good at what she wants to do, I just don't get it why choose a loser like me?"
"You're kidding right? Grace, you are much more beautiful then you give yourself credit for, no one is perfect, and do you honestly think that we would buy you an art kit if we didn't think you were good at it?"
"But…"
"Grace listen, you may be all the things you say you are in other people eyes, but in mine you are the most perfect and beautiful girl I have ever laid my eyes on, you are so perfect for me in every way, even if you are a loser you're my loser, and I wouldn't have it any other way. We are like the cute couple like, Snow White and her prince, Cinderella and Prince Charming, Jack and Sally…"
"The Beauty and the Beast?" I cut in.
"Ye… Hey I'm not a beast!"
"I know I am."
"Any way that got off track… what I'm trying to say is that I chose you because… I-um-I love you!" he stammered out. My eyes lit up and tear's came to them as my smile grew wide.
"R-r-really?"
"Yes Grace, I do really love you a lot." He said looking at me, it was then I realized he looked nervous waiting for an answer. I thought for a moment, I had thought about what I would do when this came up, and as I looked up into his beautiful eyes I knew my answer.
"I love you too!"
"Really?"
"Yes."
We stared into each other's eyes for just a moment then closed the gap between us. As the kiss deepened, we got closer to each other to the point where I was crushed against him on his lap with one hand on the couch to keep from falling back and the other on the back of his head, playing with his hair. After a few minutes we pulled away and I cuddled up to him, inhaling his sweet scent that I loved so much. Then about 3 minutes later I drifted off into a deep sleep filled with dreams of him.
A/N: this one is kind of overly sappy and was really short but I hope u all liked it….
