*Hope*
"So tell me, is there anything at all you are not like a master at ?" I say looking teasingly up at Zac, as we are dancing close together to a slow song.

"Uhm, what do you mean ?" He gives me a small smile and chuckles softly. "There are a lot of things.. not so many things I am good at. What do you happen to think I am good at ?"

I give him a 'like you don't know' look. "Well we all know you are a great actor and you just proved that you are rather apt at dancing too, and well you are definitely an amazing singer, so a bonafide triple threat. But I happen to know you are also quite a good swimmer, you are really good with words, you are a great kisser and an amazing..". I whisper the last word, blushing slightly. ".. lover".

"Ahh I think you might be just a bit biased.. but dang I do love hearing you say it, so please continue". He say smiling happily as he twirl me slowly over the dancefloor.

"I mean it Zac.. you seem to master everything you put you mind to.. almost effortlessly". I tell him, biting my lip.

His cheeks are slightly flushed. "I kind of happen to think that you are quite good at everything you do too".

"Now you are just buttering me up your scoundrel". I giggle. "But you are so damn charming doing it.. see another thing you are good at, being damn charming".

"I can't cook.. that is something I am certainly not a master at.. actually I don't think I could boil an egg to save my life". He laughs softly.

My hand run up to caress his cheek. "Well, luckily for you I am actually pretty nifty in a kitchen".

"So you are beautiful, sexy, smart.. very passionate..". He wiggles his eyebrows suggestively. ".. and you cook ? Please marry me".

I gasp and clamp a hand over my mouth. "Oh I hadn't expected this so soon.. but yes.. yes a million times yes".

"Uhm what ?" He looks very much confused. "Yes what ?"

"Yes, I'll marry you.. but you know I have planned my wedding like forever.. I want a huge party, and 7 bridesmaids, and my ring needs to be at least 2 carats". I almost stumble over the words.

He slowly turn pale. "Oh.. I don't know what to say darling..".

"What about.. pineapple ?" I ask grinning at him.

At takes a second then he starts laughing. "Oh you little tease, you scared the shit out of me".

"Sorry I couldn't help it.. it was just to easy". I giggle and he grabs me, literally lifting me into the air.

"Oh so I am easy now am I ?" A cheeky grin spreads on his lips. "So how scared do you get when I tell you that what you just did, it kind of makes me want to marry you for real".

I shake my head. "Stop being silly Zac".

"I am not.. this might sound weird, but.. I just feel.. you are perfect for me, it's like we fit together in every way possible". He look into my eyes, his gaze totally honest.

I swallow, wow this I did seriously not expect. "Zac.. I".

"Don't worry Hope, it's not like I am going to propose here and now.. I don't have a ring or anything". He catch a stray lock of my hair and tuck it behind my ear.

"Oh so you are not proposing to me after a week because you don't have a ring". I grab his hand, weaving our fingers together. "And here I thought I would be out when the vacation is over".

His free hand pulls me flushed against him and he leans down to nibble softly at my bottom lip, mumbling against my skin. "Did you really ever believe that ?"

I am really not capable of talking at all right now, my legs have turned to jello and all I can get over my lips is a strained whimper as my hand desperately grab a hold of his hair.

"Are you going to answer ?" He ask with a cheeky smile as he pull away a bit.

I take a moment to collect myself and get breathing back to normal, then I slap him on the shoulder. "How the hell do you expect me to say anything when you do that ?"

"Do what darling ?" He is enjoying himself ways to much right now.

"Biting my lip you daft bastard". I push him in the chest and pretend to want to walk away, but he grab my arm, pulling me back into his arms.

He leans down, his breath fanning over my cheek, his mouth right next to my ear. "I am not letting you go, not now, not at the end of the holiday, possibly.. never".

Just then the band starts playing 'just the way you are' and of course Zac starts singing along, holding me close to him as he moves to the rhythm, making me melt into him.

"When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change 'cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are".

Honestly how could I not with to be with this amazing man forever, he is so utterly perfect that part of me just keep waiting for that huge scary secret that he has to have. I mean beside the, sleeping with most of his female friends thing and the short relationships.. hey, I have learned his big dark secret and I have actually come to term with it.

Just as the song is about to end, we see fireworks being shot from a huge boat and we all run down to the beach. People on the boat wave and we wave back. "Oh it's a wedding, isn't it just romantic ?"

"It is". Zac say, hugging me tightly from behind. "Is that how you want our wedding ?"

"Oh we are getting cocky aren't we, who say I even want to marry you ?" I ask him, glancing up at him.

He chuckles. "Oh.. I have a feeling that I can make you say yes".
