Tom rattled the keys through the lock of your apartment that you bought a year ago today, on the day of your anniversary. It was your anniversary again today of course, and you had just released a new single as a soloist written about him. As celebration for both the new single, and your anniversary, you went out shopping together. And although Tom wasn't the biggest fan of shopping centres, he wouldn't pass up an offer like that with you. He had spent nearly the entire day spoiling you as much as he could at any shop you laid your eyes onto, and when you two entered your apartment, he was carrying so many of your bags you couldn't even see his face. But he didn't mind, and liked to give you the princess treatment you deserved.

You closed the door behind him and pulled out the key from the lock, as he placed down the bags, panting. He leaned back up once he put them all down, "thank you baby" you smiled at him, giving him a kiss on the cheek. He'd always become so flustered and nervous whenever you used any sweet nicknames to address him by instead of his name, his cheeks flushed into a bright pink and his eyes widened as he looked at you before a grin formed across his face. "You're welcome love." he responded.

You kicked off your boots and loosened the black leather belt around your waist, pulling the black leather trench coat off of you. You unclipped the claw clip from your hair, swaying your head to allow your y/h/c locks to fall below your shoulders. You removed your sunglasses, and headed to your bedroom to set down the clothes onto the floor, as you put the pair of sunglasses away. You took off the Cinderella's carriage necklace that Tom bought you many years ago, holding it delicately in your hand, as it meant so much to you, and placed it back into it's own jewellery box that was separated away from the rest of your jewellery.

You were surprised by a kiss on the back of your neck, as you looked up in the mirror and saw Tom behind you. You smiled, as he put his arms around your shoulders. "Want me to put the rest of your things that we bought away baby?" he asked, resting his chin onto your shoulder and tilting his head. "It's okay you've done enough, I can do it." you said, heading back to the front door and grabbing the bags to put everything away.

As you were organising your clothes that you bought, you reached a black lingerie set which you never remember buying. You realise Tom probably bought it and slipped it into your bag when you weren't looking. "Tom!" you called, "hm?" he answered, peeking his head through the walk in closet. You held up the set, and he began laughing. "Do you like it?" he asked, you lowkey found the set kinda cute but just rolled your eyes smiling as a response.

After you were done, you entered the living room to see him watching TV. You had an idea, and headed towards the wireless speaker. You pressed a button, and turned on the song of your single you released, "Give Your Heart A Break". The song began to play and you began moving your shoulders to the beat of the intro. Tom leaned up from the couch, watching you as you danced.

"The day I first met you, you told me YOU'D never fall in love!" you teased, pointing at him as you sang. "But now that I get you, I know fear is what it really was..." you sang, pulling him up from the couch. "Now here we areeee, so close, yet so farrrr, haven't I passed the test?" you sang as he lipsynced after you. "When will you realiseee, BABY I'M NOT LIKE THE REST!"

"DON'T WANNA BREAK YOUR HEART, WANNA GIVE YOUR HEART A BREAK! I KNOW YOU'RE SCARED IT'S WRONG, LIKE YOU MIGHT MAKE A MISTAKE! THERE'S JUST ONE LIFE TO LIVE, AND THERE'S NO TIME TO WASTE! SO LET ME GIVE YOUR HEART A BREAK, GIVE YOUR HEART A BREAK!" you held his hands as you both bounced around the room, dancing and singing together. You raised your hands up in the air, as he spun you around and pulled you close to him.

Your back against him, as you swayed side to side, continuing to dance and sing to the song. "Y/n." he called, "hm?" you answered. He pulled away from you, and spun you around to face him as the song continued to play in the background. He took a hold of your hands in his, the warmth of his palms coating yours.

"I tell you this everyday and I know I say it too much, but I love you." he told you, "I know Tom, I love you too." you replied. "And you are the most beautiful, funniest, amazing girl ever. I have so much fun around you, I genuinely laugh and smile, and barely anyone can do that for me anymore." he praised, as he planted a kiss onto your forehead. "Thank you." you quietly said, smiling.

Your smile quickly dropped as he leaned down onto one knee, and reached into his pocket, pulling out a box.

You froze, your jaw hit the floor, your eyebrows raised, your eyes widened, you were in actual shock.

"And I just can't not spend the rest of my life with you." he added. Your hands slapped over your face, as you immediately became emotional, the waterworks began. You began to cry tears of so much overwhelming joy, as you heard him giggle, he looked up at you smiling brightly. You pulled your hands away from your face, as the tears continued to stream down to your chin.

"Will you marry me y/n l/n?"

"FUCK YES!" you shrieked, as he stood up and hugged you so hard you couldn't breathe, lifting you off the ground. He squeezed and shook you in his arms, before he placed you down and pulled away. He wiped away the tears beneath your eyes, as his thumbs stroked your cheeks. He smiled at you as you shut your eyes and continued to cry, before he took a hold of your hand and slid the ring onto your finger.

Your mouth dropped open as you admired it, it slid and fit onto your finger perfectly. Everything about the ring was so beautiful, it's detail and gems it was decorated in. He placed his hand across the back of your head, placing a kiss on top of it and pulled you in for a hug again, his chin resting on top of your head, your arms around his waist and his arms around your neck.

When he hugged you, you could feel how fast and loudly his heart was racing, which was cute because he was probably so nervous.

"Your heart is beating so fast." you told him.

"Yours too." he whispered, you both laughed.

You pulled away and the realisation began to sink in that the man you were looking at right now, the same man you went through so much shit with and emotional rollercoasters with, the man who saved you and showed you what true love and affection is, is the same man you're going to marry.

You had both taught eachother so much along the way, learned from your mistakes, and experienced new feelings.

The man who chased you around with a jellyfish in his hand at the beach, the man you fucked for the first time on the floor of your friend's garage, the man you lost your own band for, is the man you are going to spend your life with. The man you never expected, that you met so many years ago, it never crossed your mind that he would be the one.

It didn't make any sense, and that's why you trusted it.

You were happy it ended up being him, and nobody else.

"I love you."
