True to his word, he brought Cheetos and arrived in the Medina house 23 minutes later. Matthew let out another puff of air. He was currently surfing through his phone as the movie "Shrek" played in Diana's TV screen. Diana had a coping mechanism of doing her nails and ranting on and on about certain subjects. This just happened to be one of the days where she needed to rant the most.

Finally, Matthew got up from his spot and went inside the large bathroom where Diana was shouting from. When he opened the door, he saw the strawberry blonde squatting on the tiled floors with an irritated look on her face. Matthew sat down across from her. "I mean," She continued. "Who does that guy think he is?"

"Uhm, your father?" He answered truthfully. Truth be told, he was planning on asking Diana to be his girlfriend today.

"I know, I know. But Mama and Del seem so happy to see him. It was as if he didn't leave his family for some Science experiment. But enough about my miserable life, how are you, doormat?"

Matthew nervously scratched the back of his neck. "I saw Silver Linings Playbook last night. And it made me wonder about how everything can change in a span of seconds aling with chances." Well, he was doing this. It was now or never.

"Jennifer Lawrence was so good in that."

"So, I'm taking this chance, this tiny leap of faith." The atmosphere around them seemed to change. From the joking and teasing to the serious and emotionally deep conversations. They were both amused and surprised by how comfortable they had become in a span of months.

"Maybe you'll make my heart enjoy the sun," He continued, not meeting her analyzing green eyes. "Maybe you'll bring it back down into the dark depths of the ocean, but these are chances I'm willing to take. And as what Gus Waters had said-"

"Bless his little soul."

"It would be a priviliege to have my heart broken by you."

Diana was left staring intently at the tall man across from her. He seemed sincere and the pain in his eyes seemed to vanish (though she could still see glints of it) and turned into something she had seen thousands of times before. It was when her mother looked at her then-father whenever he got home from work. It was when Delilah had held little Penelope in her arms for the first time. It was when Carlos realized he would be working with the Flash and Arrow cast. These moments were the moments where Diana saw people who were truly in love. Then she decided to add this moment right now to that list.

Matthew Daddario was sitting across from her, prouring his heart out, and she just wanted to pepper him with kisses and tell him that she too loved him and everything would be alright. So, she did. Diana lightly held his face in her hands and after a few seconds of second-guessing her actions, she thought: What the hell? This is the man I love.

Pulling away, Diana placed her forehead onto his, eyes closed and breathing heavy. "I love you." She kissed his forehead. "I love you." His cheeks. "I love you." His nose. And finally his lips (again), "I love you."

Diana was basically straddling him but this moment wasn't malicious or lustful. It was just pure adoration between two people. It was just two people finding an island- a place to call home- after years and years of searching the waters and battling sea monsters. For them, home was not a place; it was a person and that person was just what they needed.
