~ Clare's P.o.v ~

It's Eli's birthday. And we had a show tonight. In fact it's the same show we put on a year ago today. We decided we would do it every year to celebrate the anniversary and Eli's birthday.

He told me that's all he wanted for his birthday, but that's not all I was giving him. I found the perfect chain for him to wear around his neck and I found a skull charm that was perfect for Eli. I even engraved our initials on the back of the charm. Plus I had some pretty sexy plans for tonight. But I don't pleasure and tell. Anyways We were practicing for tonight when Adam came running in.

"Guys guess what!"

"What?" we all asked him.

"We are getting featured in the newspaper tonight. And many royal families are coming tonight to see us!"

"Oh my god Adam that's great. How'd you find out?"

"Well I have a new lady who happens to work for the paper and she heard from a prince that he was bringing all of the royal families tonight."

"Well then. We better get to work."

~ A few hours later ~

It's show time. Eli and I were getting ready in my dressing room.

"Our one year anniversary." He told me.

"And your birthday. Speaking of your birthday I got you a little something."

"Clare I told you not to get me anything." He told me seriously.

"Yeah, but when have I ever listened to you?" I giggled.

"Touché" He told me with a smirk.

So I grabbed a velvet bag that I out the chain with the charm in and I walked over and sat on his lap and handed him the bag.

"Here you go babe." And then I whispered in his ear seductively. "You'll get the rest tonight" then I winked at him.

"You little vixen." Then he kissed me. He then pulled away and opened the bag.

I showed him our initials on the back.

"You always know what to get me. I love it."

Knock. Knock.

"You guys its show time. You can stay off each other for a few hours." Adam said.

"I don't think we can Adam" Eli said. I giggled because it was kind of true.

I got off of him and we walked out to back stage.

"here we go guys." I told everybody.

Eli and I were singing together on one of our last songs when all of a sudden the music just stopped and the only light was on us. I was confused and grabbed onto Eli's shoulder until I felt him go down. I looked down at him and he was on one knee. I started shaking my head and getting teary eyed.

"Clare Diane Edwards. Daughter of Randall Edwards. The woman I love more than life itself. The woman who has stood by my side since she met me. The woman who believed in my innocence when no one else did. The woman who has turned me into a brave man. The woman who has supported me. And most importantly the woman I love who loves me. Will you marry me?"

~ Cindy's P.o.v ~

Oh my god. He finally proposed to her. She's been waiting a year for this moment. She's going to say yes. She has to.

"Clare Diane Edwards how could you betray your family's name? We only marry rich men." A woman's voice said.

Everybody looked towards her direction. We were all in shock. CeCe was sitting next to me and even she gasped.

"Officer arrest that man" the lady said while pointing at Eli.

~ Clare's P.o.v ~

Oh my god it's my mother and sister.

"Eli we have to run. Now!" I grabbed his hand and we ran to the roof top. They didn't see us in time.

"Clare? What's wrong? Who was that woman?"

"Eli that was my mother. I didn't know she would ever come back for me. I can't believe she expects me to go back with her."

"What did she mean you only marry the rich?"

"Because my mother's side of the family is royalty. My father was rich. My mother's kind only marries the royal or the rich. I however refuse to follow that. I love you Eli. She isn't going to split us up."

"Clareabelle. Don't touch him." My mother said.

"You have no right to tell me what and what not to do. You left me all alone and unprotected. And you let me watch my own father die. You are not my mother and you, Darcy are not my sister. Leave now!"

"Clare you will come with us now and leave this boy. Or else I will deny you as my daughter."

"Go ahead I've already denied you as my mother and sister. I love Eli and I would choose him over you both any day. I'm going to marry him and start a family with him. The way my father wanted it. You never loved me. So why try and take me away from my happiness? You're just wicked and I will have no part of it." And with that I pulled Eli's hand and we went back into the theatre.

Eli turned me around in front of everybody.

"So does this mean your answer is yes?" I giggled and pulled him in for a kiss.

Once we pulled apart everybody clapped.

"What do you think?" and then I kissed him again.

"Happy birthday Eli."

We then continued my present in our nice comfy bed. This was the best night of my life. And it's all because of Eli.

~ Eli's P.o.v ~

She said yes! I mean I always thought she would, but I figured one day she would realize she didn't want me. That's why I waited so long to propose. But I'm glad I waited until tonight. This is the best night of my life all because of Clare.

She gave me the best present anyone could ask for on their birthday.

"What's your wish?" she asked me once we were finished with her last present to me.

"You. You are my wish. And it came true the moment you kissed me tonight."

"oh Eli!" she then pulled me in for another kiss. Round 2! ;)

"I love you Clare"

"I love you to Eli"

Alright, this chapter was a bit cheesy. I was probably half asleep when I wrote it. With that being said. Can you guys guess what the next chapter is about? Review and tell me. Whenever somebody guesses correctly I will post the next chapter!
