Gavin Knight: From Rags to Richest

Fireworks

Nothing could prepare Aya to witness this side of Gavin; he did not slow down in his advances. It was a welcome change, nonetheless. She wanted her man aggressive like this. His confidence makes him sexier than he already is. Aya wanted to take part in this kinky side of her man.

She took another strawberry and fed it to Gavin. He took it, but Aya bit the other end. She licked her lips seductively before speaking. “You are right; it tastes better with our lips.”

Aya felt burning with fierce joy. The emotions Gavin was giving her was a like a roller coaster ride. It was thrilling to say the least. Making out in a hot spring was not on her bucket list, but it is exhilarating and a unique experience for her.

The two got off the hot spring as it was getting too hot already. They wore their robes as they sat on the couple- lounge chairs facing the magnificent view of the city. The music Gavin chose also added to the romantic mood.

 Aya rested her head on Gavin’s chest. Her heart feels so light; right now she only has appreciation for Gavin. “Thank you for everything, baby. I’m so happy right now, my heart could explode.” Aya faced Gavin to show how much she appreciates his effort.

Gavin kissed Aya’s forehead. “Happy one hundred days with you, babe.” He said to Aya.

“I’m sorry, baby. I don’t have any gift for you.” Aya said and buried her head in Gavin’s chest.

“How about spending, a hundred thousand more years with me as a gift?” Gavin said as he fixed Aya’s hair.

“How can you be my boyfriend? You are too perfect! You are so sweet, loving, strong, respectful, good looking and hot all at the same time!” She pinched herself as if checking if she was dreaming.

“You know what? I often ask myself the same thing!” He complimented Aya as well. She hugged Gavin tightly.

“You really have a way with words.” She added. She took a deep sigh, thinking it would be the perfect timing to tell him her plan. “Baby, let’s move out of Hudson, next week.” Aya said a definitive date it took Gavin by surprise.

“Oh, that quick? I would have to confide to Steven so he can find someone to take over the shop.” He replied. Aya did not sense any contradictions from Gavin, but she knows it was already too much for her to ask him to move what more to move so suddenly.

“Why do you look sad?” Gavin asked Aya. He took a deep sigh and held Aya’s face between his palms. “Baby, don’t be sad. I can leave everything behind for you. I came here with nothing, and if leaving here with you by my side is what you want. Then by all means let’s do it.” He made it clear to Aya that her request was not a burden to him but a challenge… a challenge to start fresh in another place where they can build their future together.  

Aya inched closer to Gavin and kissed him deeply. It is the best response she could think of. Her love, her body is the only gift he could give to him that could compare to what he has given and is willing to give to her.

It satisfied Gavin that Aya feels different now. He could sense the confidence in her; the confidence that she could give him every bit of hers without hesitation. “She is ready.” He mumbled to himself while their kisses became more passionate. Gavin’s heart fluttered when he realized that he can finally take their relationship on another level.

“Boom, boom, boom,”

Aya’s heart jumped out of her chest when she heard the explosion. The sky colors changed with each bang of the fireworks. Her eyes glistened with glee. They walked towards the veranda to get a better view. They were so high up the mountain that the fireworks were almost at their eye level. 

This spectacle is comparable to a display for new years' eve. It was pretty. She never saw fireworks this close. It felt like she could actually touch it and reach for it. She glanced in Gavin’s direction, and he was just staring at her.

“You did this?” She asked her charming beau.

He nodded with a sweet smile on his face. “I hope you like it, baby.”

“I love it.” Aya replied with tears in her eyes. “How could you do this to me? I thought the surprises today are done already.” She tugged on Gavin’s robe.

"I told you about this before, right? We will celebrate your birthday like new year's eve." Gavin glanced at his watch and the timing was correct it was indeed twelve in the evening, just in time to greet his woman. 

Gavin chuckled. He was just happy that Aya noticed his effort to make this day special for her. He picked a flower from one of the long stem red roses placed in a vase on the table near them. Gavin handed it to Aya.

"Happy birthday, my princess." He said in his low voice. 

Aya accepted the flower and hugged him. "Thank you, so much, baby. You made my day super. I can't find the right adjective to describe how happy I am right now." She happily said as Gavin Lifted her as he embraced her tightly. 

When Gavin brought her down, she lovingly stared at the rose and placed it near her nose. She loves the subtle scent of roses. Gavin was looking at her weirdly, but she tried to ignore it. She looked at the red rose in full bloom, but instantly noticed something glimmering on the stem. Aya looked closer. Her heart pounded so hard she could hear it beating. “Is this what I think it is?” She asked herself as she pulled it out of the stem.

Gavin smiled and went down on one knee. Aya saw him, but could say nothing. It’s just too much already and this unexpected event completely blew away her mind. Her eyes swelled up in tears and her happiness was too intense it actually frightened her. They say that after absolute bliss, one would fall down in deep sorrow. And today, her happiness is through the roof already. Is there anything more that could make her happier at this moment? Is she about to fall into the deep abyss after this?

Gavin is nervous. His heart throbbed with happiness and uneasiness at the same time. He could only have high hopes that Aya would accept his proposal and his genuine love.

“Baby, I’ve been bringing this ring with me for a while now. But today, I felt that you were finally ready to take our relationship to another level. I know, I’m not perfect, and I have so much to prove in this life. But right now, I like you to know how much I love you. I’d love to grow old with you. Will you marry me?”
