It has nearly been a week since I was mugged and since then, Dan has walked with me back from Uni every day. It's been nice to spend more time with him out of the flat; he is so busy with editing and filming videos that he barely goes out and around London.
It is Sunday evening and I have just had a long phone call to my parents, they are coming up to visit in the week and it will be the first time they go to our flat and meet Phil. They only quickly met Dan last year when he turned up begging them to let him surprise me by waiting in my room for me. Thank God that they let him because I now realise how important he is and I am never going to let him go. I stand up and stretch my legs after sitting down; I check the time and see that it has just turned seven. I go to the kitchen and turn the radio on, I love to listen to Dan and Phil's radio show, and it's so exciting that they have a weekly show; it gives Dan so much confidence. As I listen I get out my books for Uni and start to revise over some key topics. The time goes by so quickly with the radio on that I am finished just as the boys start saying goodbye. "So this show has been so much fun today, we played some really good music." Phil says. "Yep, and we're going to finish it off with one last song. This song is for my girlfriend Amy, who I hope is listening back at the flat. Amy, I know that you love this song and I love you so here you go." I burst in to a smile at the song he chose; it's one of my favourites, Tom Odell. I sigh and think about how lucky I am to have such a wonderful boyfriend.
Half an hour later and they walk back in. "Dan, thank you so much for playing me a song!" I greet him, wrapping my arms round his neck. "It was so sweet." I add, kissing him. "Glad you liked it baby; I've got one more surprise for you." He says, he takes my hand and leads me out of the front door. "Where are we going?" I ask, surprised. He stops walking when he reaches the flat below. It used to be my old flat, it was how I met the boys, Dan had helped me move in and managed to break all my plates. "Why did you bring me here?" I ask as we stand outside the door. "This very spot was where I first told you that I loved you." He says, he grins before opening the door. My mouth falls open at the sight of the flat; I take a single step inside, not believing my eyes. "Oh Dan." I mummer, stunned. He has filled the entire room with red roses, there must be hundreds of them. There is a small gap in the middle, a circle. Dan leads me through the roses; I am stuck for words as I breathe in the smell of the flowers. Dan sits down in the space and I join him. "What's all this for?" I say as I look round. He takes my hands in his and we join eye contact. "Amy, I am in so much love with you. You are my world, my everything, my life and I never want to be apart from you. So..." My heart starts to pound as I realise what is about to happen. "Amy, will you do me the massive honour of being my wife, and making me the happiest and luckiest man in the world." He reaches in to his pocket and pulls out a small red box. He opens the lid and reveals a ring; it has just one single diamond, glinting as it catches the light. "Amy, will you marry me?" He says, his eyes shining. "Yes! Of course I will!" I say, he beams as he takes the ring and slips it on my finger; we embrace and hold each other for a while. "I love you so much." He says, starting to cry. "I love you too." I reply as we kiss, amongst the roses.
