I wish I could
Be mine - 2 (Jack POV)
Jack POV
My heart was beating with about the frequency of a hummingbird’s wings while flying. Adrenaline was racing through my body. This was one of the most important moments concerning my future.
“And therefore, I hereby ask you, Alexander William Gaskarth - will you marry me?”
It was out. I held my breath. He was teary eyed. No, oh my god. Were those good or bad tears? He opened his mouth but closed it right afterwards. He was really weirdly coloured. But then, he smiled, opened his mouth again, got up and spoke.
“Yes, I will.”
All the stress of the past few weeks left my body. I started crying a little bit and Alex helped me up to kiss me. I got hold of his hand and put on the ring. He admired it, turning his hand all around to see it from every angle.
“It’s beautiful!” he said after some time, smiling like a little child on Christmas Day. I was so done and happy. I kissed him some more.
When we both had calmed down as well as possible, we decided to order dessert. Tarte Tatin, also like back in France, a delicious apple cake. The waitress came and spotted Alex’s ring instantly, she smiled broadly at me and gave me a thumbs up.
“Congratulations! The kitchen would like to give you their best wishes. I’ll be right back,” she said.
I took Alex’s hand in mine. I loved this man so much. Wow.
A few minutes later, the waitress arrived again. She was balancing a Tarte Tatin as well as two shots. “Et Voilà! Two limonchello liqueurs and your Tarte. Bon apetit!” With that, she was off again. We nipped at our shots, enjoying the lemony flavour before savouring the pie. It tasted amazing.
After the meal, I decided to bring Alex and myself back home. I paid, leaving a generous tip and we drove home.
"Mhm, Jack, don’t you think we should… go to the bedroom maybe?” Alex said while I had pinned him down on the couch. I nodded.
“Good idea…” I purred and helped him up. We climbed the stairs to our room quickly…

aaahh I really don't know? I get so bad with sequels, I still haven't finished Chased by the Future and also I'm really into Homeless right now.
I guess I can maybe make one chapter as a sequel and post it in here if I find the time to do so if more people want me to do it? :)
