Rachel's POV
21Please respect copyright.PENANAZhshhXpOCN
Christopher George Brown, there's a little bit more to him than meets the eyes. And honestly that's exactly what has kept me intrigued. Not only can he drive his car like a formula one racer, whilst holding my thigh all at the same time. He has multiple jobs, all of which he manages with ease, he's practically an entrepreneur. The barista look he tells me was just something that earns him extra money, he enjoys making coffee and making people smile.

And boy can Christopher make a woman smile. In fact I'm convinced that he is masterful in the art of making me smile. He swishes his hair away from his face before glancing over at me in the car.

"So Rachel, what will it be tonight yours or mine?" He chuckles and I smile pleased with the progression of our romantic endeavour.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAH5uxzwRKaO
"Yours Chris" I tell him and he smirks, Christopher has a suburban home. It's perfectly equipped for a quiet life in America, set against the backdrop of bear lake. With a large deck that we often spend our evenings sitting out on.

"Oh I'm lucky" he says charming and I smile. I sit there in the passenger seat of this wonderful man's car, who I just ran into one afternoon. A day where I woke up with my ex boyfriend, Nate, at his university dorm arguing over him not introducing me to anybody in his life. Stormed out of his life, literally yelling on the way out only to fall into this new life where we cook together and sip wine. No longer do I feel like chugging the whole bottle because he makes me feel safe and needed. Like he will not leave me, like he is in it for the long haul. He is truly special, in the way that he has begun to repair a lot of the insecurities that I had due to my past relationships even though we have merely known each other for months. When life throws you the opportunity of forever, you take it grasping it with both hands and holding on tight

"I'm lucky Chris" I tell him and he smiles happily looking back out of the windshield.

"You know Italy should be nice, hey do you wanna go shopping tomorrow for some like holiday stuff" he laughs and I smile over at him, if there was ever a man for me, it's him. Suggesting shopping trips is big on my list.

"I can see you now in a bikini" he smirks with a cheeky grin.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAUFTHvVaU8e
"Oh can you now" I smile as he rubs my thigh.
21Please respect copyright.PENANA1hgx2bPcBW
"Yes it's a very nice thought" he smirks and I smile broadly as he pulls into the double drive, of his home. We've discussed the options of me moving in with him, I had to calm myself from jumping at the chance and turning up with suitcases. So far we are taking things steady, I stay here with him most of the time and truly it's been the most happy point of my life.

Christopher gets the door for me and holds my hand as he takes me up to the porch, my pale blue dress swaying behind me.
21Please respect copyright.PENANADzMpOeTAWE
"Sorry I just you in this dress" he smiles pausing as we reach the large double doors.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAJVoUS2c59T
"I have the urge" he whispers smirking before lifting me up and holding me in his arms as he kicks the door open and carries me in. I giggle and laugh marvelling at his arm strength as he carries me through to the sofa.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAqkxuXHBFT6
Glancing over his shoulder at the large metal clock on the wall, the exposed bricks and the huge fireplace I realise that it's almost midnight.

"Rachel" he whispers looking into my eyes before kissing me again. I fumble with the shiny buttons on his shirt and he smiles kissing my neck.
21Please respect copyright.PENANA7U5grO6fFk
"You were pretty cute with that baby" he smiles as my hands loop around his hips under his shirt.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAqTMUJT92M0
"Chris" I smirk and he laughs.
21Please respect copyright.PENANA16UULotImp
"Is this you telling me you want to fill me with babies" I smirk and he laughs, his cheeks going red under his tan complexion.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAqatpPDF6Kk
"Well" he says softly, my mind fills with images of our little blonde children. A little girl with caramel blonde hair and hopefully his green eyes. It takes a fair bit to make me speechless, but like most things he manages to achieve it entirely.

Led by intuition he picks me up and I giggle, resting my head into his chest. Christopher walks me past the pool table and through the dining hall and I just watch him captivated. Finally once he has taken me to the end of the pier which faces the lake he sets me down and I feel the cool wooden deck under my toes.
21Please respect copyright.PENANA5O9IMhrvzj
I gaze up at him standing before me, the moonlight just behind him and the calm water surrounding us.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAQbF1HWHys8
"Are you taking me on the boat" I laugh and he shakes his head fishing in his trouser pocket. Swiftly getting down onto one knee on the deck I smirk and he grins at me confidently. I gasp placing my hands over my mouth realising that this is my moment.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAi8URL7pNSI
"Rachel" he begins and I gasp again.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAnC87UWj0FT
"Yes" I squeal and he laughs brushing his hair back and smiling from ear to ear.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAMPSGxMKVbL
"You don't know what you're saying yes to yet" he smirks presenting me with a black velvet box.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAevqtgB3k9B
"Rachel Bevan would you do me the absolute honour of becoming my wife?" He asks me earnestly before opening up the small box to reveal a clear diamond ring set in platinum. It's exquisite and I cry instantly. A single band set with a round brilliant cut diamond that under the moonlight glows.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAeuE1XwJ01E
"Yes Christopher" I whisper and he stands, taking my hand in his own.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAathSHYgc3O
"I knew from the second I saw you that you were for me" he smiles placing the ring on my engagement finger.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAXeOn076fLZ
"Plus I figure I should most likely do this the right way huh, before I fill you up with my babies" he laughs and I gasp smiling up at him.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAdCqmxZ94Uo
"Chris we haven't even said I love you yet" I laugh looking down at the gleaming ring on my fingers capturing all of the light.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAvyaHvrmeYV
"I love you" he smirks and I laugh.
21Please respect copyright.PENANA8SiDFCBKfV
"I love you" I tell him before he sweeps my pale blonde hair back and kisses me.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAHk5im0F0KZ
"Rachel Brown" he smiles holding onto the sides of my face.
21Please respect copyright.PENANA3CcoQN5Hk6
"My fiancée" I smile up at him.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAr4Spj33RwO
"I told Ross before at the car, he will be expecting to know whether you said yes or no" he looks at me his eyes glistening.
21Please respect copyright.PENANA49jWosaALB
"Taylor will be beside herself" I laugh imagining the three of them.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAzvmv5XdOl6
"Babe it was a no brainer" I laugh looking up at him as he smiles, green eyes shining in the moonlight.
21Please respect copyright.PENANARzVayUfT0G
I said yes.
21Please respect copyright.PENANAPprkL43sgl
My fingers sweep over the keys on my phone as I watch my ring. I send the message to Ross before looking back up at Christopher, my forever man.
