Anna and i, we've been dating for three months but not officially. I'm planning make it official tonight. So far, everything between us has been great if not perfect. Sure, there are little arguments here and there but we managed it.

We're trying to take it slow, no need to rush. It's not like tomorrow is the Judgement day. If so, then i'll for sure go to the nearest jewelry shop and propose her. Nope not tomorrow but someday i will. When we're both ready. If everything goes well.

I love and cherish every moment we spend together. We went to several date, go to movies, lunch or dinner together, and simply go shopping. What can I say, shopping is the best way to make women closer together. Nothing big but what make things special is that i have a beautiful woman to accompany me.

For a whole week, Anna kept talking about opera. Two days ago, i found her reading an article about The Phantom Of The Opera North American Tour intensely in her living room. It's like she's giving me hints. Do i get it. Of course i am.

Last night i bought two tickets with so much effort. Truthfully, the tickets are already sold out but i used my connections to make it happen. It happens in the end. Well, i have to pay more but i don't care. Anything for my princess.

So, here i am driving my yellow Chevrolet Camaro to her house. It's small yet cozy. When i pull over to her block, i can see another car in her driveway. I never see it before, clearly it's not hers. Before we assume bad things, let''s find out.

I hop off the driver seat and take a glance of my reflection. I straighten my dress to rid off the wrinkles and check my make up. Tonight I wear a dark blue dress that stopped mid-thigh and a blazer. I look nice. I walk to her door and knock. After a few times, the door swings open and reveal a very tall man. Who is he.

"Good evening. My name is Elsa." I say awkwardly while extending my hand. He doesn't shake it so i just take it back.

"What do you want?" he says harshly. God. Can't he be friendly. For such a handsome man he sure has attitude. Bad one.

"I um want to take Anna on a date. Is she ready yet?" He's not answering. He doesn't like me. Is he homophobic. I try to figure it out but his face is i don't know. It holds anger. Why.

Where is my girl. I need her, now.

"Aaron, who is it?" There she comes downstairs.

"Hey Elsa, come on in." Aaron, he step aside and let me in.

"I see that you've met my brother." I nod and give her a kiss on the cheek. She giggles.

"Hey umm can you wait her a minute or two, i have to grab my purse and apply my mascara." I nod. She leans into me and give a peck on my lips. She pats my cheek lightly and turn around towards the stairs. I smile.

I hear someone scoff behind me. Guess who. Aaron. He has a bottle of beer in his hand and takes a large gulp. Next thing he do, it disgusts me. He burps loudly. It seems like he did it on purpose. I just glare at him. He catches my glare and returns it. Wow, i'm frozen in my place. He slowly walks to me, making the distance closer as he takes step by step. I feel some bad vibe from him.

"Look and listen to me carefully. My name is Aaron, i'm Anna's big brother but to you i am your worst nightmare. You don't want to mess things up with Anna or i'll hunt you. Because if you do bad things against my family again, i swear to God. I would be the reason you leave this world and never see the light again. Do you understand?" I shake my head up and down. He says those sentences in one breath. How did he do it. It's not the main problem here. It's the fact that i can feel the seriousness in his voice. What does he mean by 'again'. I'm so deep in thought that i don't catch Anna calling for me.

"I'm ready." She looks absolutely gorgeous in that red strapless dress. She applies more make up than usual. I would say it's unnecessary but i can't avoid the fact that she is more beautiful than ever.

"Baby girl, you're beautiful. I know this Elsa here thinks the same." He comes to her sister and kiss her cheek. "Now we don't want your date waiting too long, do we." He gives us a very warm smile. It's like he doesn't threatened me a minute ago.

I simply tailing behind them. Not saying a single word. Just about i'm reaching the front door, he taps my shoulder. I turn to him. He whispers to me. "Enjoy it while it lasts. Women are trouble." I cannot move. Those words send shiver all over my body.

"Geez, Aaron. You scare her. Why are you so annoying. Stop doing that or i won't have any girlfriend." Anna comes to the rescue. She literally drags me and place her arm around my waist. She shoves his arm playfully. He just chuckles.

"Let's go."

***

"You're quiet. What is it. Did my brother scare you? I'm so sorry." I squeeze my free hand that rested on her thigh. "It's okay." I sigh. To be honest, i'm not. Aaron is more than just an overprotective brother. Something in his eyes hold more than anger when he sees me. I want to ask her more about Aaron but i think it can wait.

"Where are we going?"

"Do you want to know?" i ask her playfully.

"Yes."

"Reallyyyy" She shakes her head.

"We're going to watch opera." Next thing i hear is Anna squeals. I swear i hear my windows crack. Not true, but you know what i mean. She's starting to rock the seat, hands pumping the air.

"Did I tell you i was kidding?" She looks at me intensely. Asking a serious answer. I keep my face straight.

"You liar. Stop the car. I wanna go home."

"Slow down, my princess. Check my purse." I command her. She grabs my purse reluctantly and takes out the tickets. "It's real. Yes yes yes." She leans in closer and peck my cheek.

"The air is hurting. You punch them a lot." She's grinning like crazy. After a few moments she calms down.

We reach . We can see the posters all around the building. The Phantom Of The Opera. I don't really interested into opera but i know this performance is very famous. It's going to be epic.

I give my car to the valet service and i place my arm securely on Anna's waist and lead her into the building. I give the man our tickets and someone lead us to our seat. Since I told her about the opera, Anna can't stop smiling. If we're not in public, she's going to jumping all around and dancing Gangnam style.

"I never know you like opera" I tell her.

"I love it, Elsa. Thank you very much." She hugs me and giving me a long passionate kiss. I don't care though, we're in private box. I break away because we both need air. I give her one last kiss before the lights turn out. Soon the performance begin.

During the performance, I fell asleep. No matter how hard i try to stay awake, i just can't. I feel myself being shake.

"Elsa, wake up. The performance is finished." I slowly open my eyes and stretch my arms. My body is a bit sore because of my bad sleeping position. I sigh.

"You miss the whole spectacle. I cannot believe you. How can you sleep in the middle of an opera show. We can discuss about it for hours. I'm trying to give my opinion, comment or critics here and there but you just... sleep." She lets out a deep breath. I take her hand and plant a kiss.

"I'm so sorry Anna. It's just not my thing. My mom used to take me to watch opera, ballet, piano concert, etc. There isn't one show that i didn't fall asleep in the middle of the show. I'm sorry. I wished i stayed awake." I cannot meet her eyes. She lifts my chin and stares into my eyes.

"I fail you." A tear is flowing down my cheek. Anna sweeps it away. She kisses me. Then she rests her forehead against mine. "It's okay baby. I know you're trying hard. And i'm sorry for being such a bitch." I can tell she's upset with herself.

"No you're not. You are a princess, my princess. Would you like to take a ride with me before going home? I have another destination for us." Say yes please.

"Why not."

Here we are in the empty park. In the daylight, this park is amazing. It's not too big not small just average. There is a duck pool and fish pool. I have no reason why it has to be separated. Are the ducks going to eat the fish. Never mind. There are kids playground, swings, slides, etc.

The surrounding when the sun goes down is like we're living in a horror movie. It's dark and gloomy. This park is lack out lightings. Tonight is different. We can see brand new garden lamps lead our way to the duck pool.

When we reach the duck pool i hear Anna gasps. She's taking the scenery in front of her in awe. The duck pool is completely different from the usual. The ducks are having some heartshaped balloon in every single color flowing above their heads. How did i do that. Money. Not too far away there is a tree with a blanket spread and a picnic basket. I lead her there.

"Wow. It's amazing. You set all of this?" She says as she sits. Her eyes are shining bright and she keeps turning her head left and right to take the full scenery in. She likes it.

"This is for you, Anna. Only for you." I nod in amusement.

"I hope you're not full yet. I prepared something for us." I say as i pick out muffins with numerous flavors. We have blueberry, chocolate, cheese, strawberry and vanilla.

"Ooh muffins. You made all of this by yourself?" She starts munching the blueberry one.

"With some help from Evelyn." She nods.

We lay on the blanket with Anna lay her head on my chest. I also bring us a blanket to keep our body warm. The moment is perfect. But i have my doubt. What i she rejects me. What if. That's enough. I have to clear my mind and think positive. After a few moments, i reposition myself, I sit with my back lean on the tree and I take her right hand in mine. I speak out.

"I have something more. It's um well..." She looks deep into my eyes, encouraging me.

"Anna, you are the most beautiful woman i've ever met. You are sweet, kind, humble and stubborn" the last word gives me a smack. "You too are cruel what if i get amnesia." I pout. She rubs my head and kiss it. "Continue." "We've been dating for three months and i really enjoy your company. I like you Anna. No. It's more than that i'm in love with you. I will do anything for you. And. I love you Anna. Will you be my girlfriend?" I reach behind me and open the little blue box that contains a bracelet. It has a love pendant that formed from two swans that kiss each other. She likes swan that's also the main reason why I choose this place. Sure it's duck but they're close right.

...

The silence is killing me. Will she accept or reject. Can't she speak.

"I think it's a no. It's okay. We can still be friends." I close the box and place it securely. Anna doesn't speak a word. She's in deep thought. Great. Not only i just got rejected but she gives me a silent treatment.

"It's getting cold out here. We can back home now." She simply nods. She gets up and helps me rearrange the picnic basket while i fold the blankets. We reach the car and not so long after I park in her driveway. His brother's car is gone. That's good.

We stand in front of her front door. "Look, Anna. I'm sorry for making you uncomfortable. Maybe it's too fast but i've been waiting some time to ask you that question and i'm dying to know the answer. I don't know if i should be happy or not. At least i figure it out, right." I'm breaking inside. I lower my gaze from her. Tears are forming in my eyes.

"Yes."

"Huh?"

"Yes. I will be gladly to be your girlfriend." She lifts my chin and hugs me tightly. The reality finally hits me. She accepts. I hug her back. I break away from the embrace and place my arm around her neck and kiss her passionately. She responds with the same passion. Soon, things get heated and Anna quickly opens the door. She leads us to her room upstairs.

I've been in her house several times but this is the first time I ever get the chance to step my feet in her room. I want to observe more about her room because we can tell what a person is from their bedroom. Not now but next time. Right now she begins to undo my zipper while i pin her to the wall.

Soon we both lay naked on her bed. I stare at her glorious body. If goddess is real then she is a goddess. It seems like i stare too long. The next thing comes from her mouth make me shivers.

"Make love to me."

In that moment, I don't care about the world, Aaron's threat, my business or anything.

It's just me and her.
