Letting out a soft sigh, he felt his point was only proven further. "Babe, I'm not mad at you, I just want to give you space. I'm sorry I thought you were mad at me. If you don't want me to leave, I can stay here." He whispered. "Please don't hurt yourself."
She wiped the tears from her eyes and sniffled " no just go eat"
"Caroline… what do you want me to do? Don't think about me, just think about you." Brad whispered, taking her hand in his. "What can I do for you?"
"I want you to think about who you love and who you wanna spend your life with" she said
"You." He said as soon as she finished her statement. "There's no questioning it, I love you. I want to spend my life with you."
" How do you know?" She asked
"Knowing you love me, that's a big one. The feeling I get every time I see you. How I feel every time I see your gorgeous smile. The list goes on and on." Brad whispered, pressing a kiss to the back of her hand.
" haven't you ever felt that way with other girls" she said
Shaking his head, he gave her a soft smile. "Nope. I've never gotten flustered around other girls. You're the first one." Brad hummed, lacing their fingers together.
She stroked the base of his thumb with her thumb
"Are you reassured? I can keep going." Brad whispered, leaning forward just slightly.
"No you…You don't have to" she said
"I can though. Do you need more reassurance?" Brad asked again, watching their hands laced together.
"maybe"" she said
"That other girl I dated, yes I loved her. But not the way I do to you. There's something different. You just… you make me feel best when you're around. Even when we fight, I never feel hated." Brad whispered, cupping her cheek in his hand.
she looked up into his eyes
"Unless I've been reading the signs wrong, I know you love me." He continued to whisper, leaning his forehead against hers. "And I love you with all of my heart."
" You have to promise to to engage with stars tactics" she said.
"To- what?" He asked, taking off guard. "Sorry, I missed something, what am I promising you?"
"engage with her if you don't she'll never leave you alone" she said
"I- you want me to propose right now?" He asked pulling back just slightly. Clearly he was under prepared.
"No No No Of Course not that might not even happen just don''t ignore star" she said.
"Oh! Star's tactics! I… I don't know what I thought you said." Brad laughed lightly, relaxing.
"I think you thought i was asking you to propose" she said
Giving her a soft smile, he leaned in to peck her lips. "I promise not to forget about her. I'll remember she's the bad guy, even in her charm." Brad joked, standing himself up. "Come on darling, let's head back inside."
She nodded walking inside
Giving her a sweet smile, he pulled her along behind him. "Back to the cafeteria?"
She nodded with a smile
Pushing the door to the cafeteria open, he held it for her. "There you are princess. Lead the way."
She pulled him back to thier seat
