I closed my eyes and felt the wind caress my skin as it blew my hair. While the soothing sound of wind echoed in my ears, a smile touched my face.

"Careful, Ells," Sebastain said, chuckling.

From the open window, I drew my head inside the car.

I sighed contentedly, inhaling the fresh air, and looked up to see his gorgeous eyes, which were hidden behind sunglasses and fixed on the road. While one of his hands was relaxing on the window sill, the other was driving.

He looked hot.

In the background, a pop song was playing.

As he turned to face me, a small smirk appeared on his face.

"Is something wrong with you, babe?" He cocked his head and smirked.

"Nope," I said, moving my gaze to the road.

The car abruptly came to a halt, and I frowned.

"What's wrong?"

He took off his sunglasses and moved closer to me, the evening sunlight falling on his face, giving him the beauty of a fallen angel. His blue irises glistened like the first droplet of rain from the sky.

"Get on my lap,"

"Why?" I asked, flushed.

I'd be on it in a matter of seconds.

He shifted his weight back in his seat and waited, looking at me.

I sighed and slid into his lap, rolling my eyes.

His hands wrapped around my waist, drawing me closer to his chest.

"You look so fucking beautiful." He whispered, his eyes adoringly on me,

I wore a yellow sundress that came up to my mid-thighs, along with flat yellow sandals, yellow sunflower earrings, and light makeup. I had no idea where he was taking me, but he hinted that I should dress comfortably.

"You look great as well," I told him.

He was dressed in a black tee and brown khakis.

It was a simple outfit, but he made it look like a dirty fantasy for every girl.

He asked, his grin widening, "Was that a compliment?"

I flicked his nose with mine.

"What were thinking earlier?" He asked, his head tilted, his gaze fixed on me, as he tucked my tendrils behind my ear.

"That your beauty bewitched me," I murmured, my cheeks flushed.

He chuckled, "My beauty?"

I nodded, caressing his cheeks.

I hardly ever complimented men; I'm not sure why; I think I'd use the word shy to describe it.

"And all mine," I added, possessiveness in my voice that I had no idea existed.

His eyes gleamed with an indecipherable gleam, but satisfaction radiated from them.

"And all yours," he added with a nod.

"Just as you're all mine," his eyes darkening with the same emotion I was experiencing.

"And Hell will turn into ice before anyone can take you away from me"

With that, he drew me in for a passionate kiss. Our tongues brushed against each other, and our lips brushed against each other. While I tilted my head, I opened my mouth for him to slip his tongue. While we fought for dominance, his hands on my hips tightened. When I twirled my tongue against his and kissed him until every ounce of oxygen had left our bodies, he groaned.

Just after our kiss, both of us were gasping for air.

He placed his hand on his cheek and caressed it, saying, "We should tell them, tell him."

I knew who he was talking about.

Jake.

"We should," I said with a nod.

"How about today?" he inquired.

With a shake of my head, I said,

"Tomorrow morning,"

We'll be leaving the next day, so it'll be best if we leave after clearing the air.

He agreed with a nod.

I gave him a kiss on the nose and smiled.

"He'll despise me," he said quietly, his gaze fixed on the evening sun as I stroked his cheeks.

"I hope he understands," I say.

"He won't," he said, shaking his head, "because he knows what kind of guy I am, and even I wouldn't want you to deal with someone like me," he added, "but I can't let you go. I just can't, never." Sebastian's gaze was drawn to me.

"Stop giving that 'I'm a bad guy speech.' " I replied flatly and rolled my eyes.

"You are the guy who saved me from being raped, who looked after me, who was by my side even when I wasn't on my right mind, who has the biggest heart, the person who took care of me at my worst, who held me in his arms protectively," my eyes welled up as I remembered all those moments, "Who deals with my crazy ass every day"

"A nice ass."

With a grin, he interjected and squeezed my ass.

I continued with a nod "Indeed, I have a very nice ass. Anyways,

you're an idiot, but you're the type of person I'd risk my life for just to see smile. Sebastian, baby, you make me feel good about myself " A tear caressed my skin as I whispered.

"You make me feel good about myself, too, babe. You make me feel wanted" He wipes away my tears as he whispers.

"I'm glad," I said as I kissed his brow.

I smiled looking at him.

"Though I am very comfortable with where I am, I believe we should get going on our date before everyone asks where I am."

He groaned and nodded.

Sebastian tucked me back to my seat, but not before he kissed me again.

When I moved to the passenger seat, he pouted his lips.

I laughed. He looked adorable.

"Suck up, boyfriend," I said, pouting my lips in response.

He leaned in close and kissed my lips.

"Let's go, babe," I laughed again, pushing him towards his seat.

The sun was changing shades causing the sky to turn a light pink color.

Sebastian's and my fingers were intertwined as I looked out.

My heart raced as my chest swelled; I'll never be able to get used to him holding my hand.

I told my family that I would be hanging out with some old friends today, and even though Mum and Olivia didn't seem to believe me, Mum remained silent while Olivia winked at me.

While Sebastain had left early in the morning to prepare for our date, he had informed Jake and my parents that he needed to meet with some investors and would be in meetings with them all day.

I'm not sure how much longer we can keep this up, but tomorrow will be the end of it; we'll tell everyone about us.

And then I can breathe freely without feeling guilty about it.

I hadn't spoken to to Jen or Mave in a long time, just exchanged a few texts in which they were inquiring about my father's health. Jen hinted that she was waiting for me to return and that she had noticed a shift in my relationship with Seb.

I am not surprised. With the way he had handled me that day, I am sure everyone understood something was going on between.

The more I think about it, the more unbelievable it all seems. It's true, when they say no one really knows what big surprise life has in store for us at any given time.

The car came to a halt, and I removed my sunglasses to take in the scenery; we were on a beach, and I loved the beach.

I turned to face him, his gaze already fixed on me.

"Let's go," he smirked, as he got out of the car and walked over to my side to open my door.

I raised an eyebrow, but didn't say anything.

My boyfriend is a gentleman.

He intertwined our hands and pulled me into his chest after I got out of the car.

When my gaze met his, the sunrays fell into his eyes, making them appear to reflect our surroundings.

He kissed my nose and murmured,

"This seems so unreal."

I sighed breathing in his rich light cologne.

"I know," I said softly, a smile grazing my lips.

He returned my smile and kissed my brow.

We walked side by side, I opened my sandals and carried them in my hands, while enjoying the view. Seb did the same. The feel of sand against my toes was a welcome relief. My gaze was fixed on the beach, the gentle breeze blowing, and the soft waves crashing on the shore; all of this seemed like a dream.

Then there was this lovely set up, complete with fairy lights hanging from the ceiling and a table with two chairs, roses perched on the ground, and the light glimmered beautifully.

"It's looks so magical," I said softly, biting my lower lip to keep from crying.

I turned to look at him only to see he was already staring at me.

"I'm glad you like it," he said softly, a soft small smile gracing his lips.

"I love it, baby, thank you so much," I said as I hugged him. He sighed and hugged me back tightly.

He murmured, "Anything for my girl."

And if I didn't melt before, I'm sure I'm melting now.

He guided me to the table and drew a chair for me to sit in. The soothing sound of waves crashing against the shore and the wind blowing felt surreal.

Soon after, a waiter arrived and took our orders, followed by a violinist who began playing a soft romantic tune.

"Did you arrange everything yourself?" I asked, my gaze drawn to the sea.

He nodded,

"I heard Jake say you liked the sea, and while I could have easily asked someone else to do it, I wanted to do it after all, it's our first date,"

With a smile on my lips, I looked at him.

My smile didn't seem to leave my lips for a second today.

"Thank you so much, baby, it means so much, " I said with a smile.

It's the thought that counts, and even if he had said he had people to do it for him, it wouldn't have made a difference in my eyes, but the thought that he orchestrated it himself makes my heart leap with joy.

It is the small pleasures in life that enhance the beauty of life.

Sometimes, magical events occur when we least expect them. Seb and I spoke about his time at boarding school. He claimed he was a rebellious teenager at the time. I told him he was still the same, but he shook his head with a smile. I told him I wanted to accompany him to his boarding school one day. He smiled and appeared to be overjoyed, which made me wonder why he was so pleased, but his happiness was all that mattered. We danced, twirled and laughed for a while, ate food, and had the best and most magnificent evening of my life.

I didn't know what life had in store for us, but I knew this moment was everything when his eyes met mine and intensely held mine in place before he pulled me in for a spellbinding kiss under the moon, with the sea witnessing and waves crashing the shore.

But eventually all good things must come to an end.
