When Reza smiles and moves away from Kellin and Ansley, he looks concerned. "Shit did I say something wrong? I'm sorry," he says quickly.

Vara gives Mariko her classic sly smile, raising her glass to her lips again. There was nothing she liked more than hearing Mariko's laugh, especially when it was because of something Vara did. She loved making Mariko happy. She shudders a bit when Mariko admits that she used to drink wine with screw-on caps. That was unheard of to Vara. She moans against Mariko's lips as they kiss, saying fuck-all to anybody uncomfortable by their PDA. "You're my beautiful Mariko," she says back with a smile. "I love you."

"Who, me? I'm not the star." She laughs, thinking it was silly to be called the star of the show when there were so many other great people on there. She nods and kisses his cheek. "I feel very privileged that you're here tonight and looking so good too!" Ansley chuckled and then shrugged. "Yeah, well I'm sure she's at the bar for the rest of the night. Do you want anything to drink?"

"Thank you. Hey, I'm proud of you too. Juneau has done amazing and you've been traveling the world like the rockstar you are." Ansley had been a little discouraged from dating someone from the industry again but he was completely different and she loved that. "Of course, I remembered. I didn't mean a drink drink, I meant like something wet....you could drink..that's non-alcoholic." She laughs. "Sorry, I'll go get the waters now." She squeezes his hand before turning to go spot the nearest route to navigate across the dance floor.

Reese giggles along with Astra. Somehow, he grumbles at the same time. "Fuck, I can't even have one last one night stand before the whole promo trip?" he asks her. "Maybe I should just give up on this." A loud ding suddenly comes up, startling Reese. He realizes the sound must have come from his own pocket. He reaches inside for his phone and there is indeed a recent unread message. "An unknown number just texted me," he announces.

When Ansley leaves to get some drinks, Kellin nervously looks around him at everyone here. Despite the success of his career in 2014, he never felt any different. Not like he thought famous people should, so he never really felt like he was famous as a result, and it made him feel a little out of place here, like he was intruding on the famous people. But he was here to support his girlfriend and he wasn't about to waste their night by wanting to leave. When she comes back, he smiles warmly at her and takes a water. "Hey..can we go somewhere quiet for just a minute? I wanted to talk to you about something," Kellin blurts out before he has time to think about it. He really wanted Ansley to know now, because she meant a hell of a lot to him.

Kellin smiles and takes a drink from his water as well as he nods. He just wanted a few minutes alone with Ansley to tell her what he had to tell her. "Sure, outside sounds good, honey," he says with a little chuckle, before he holds her hand and starts to lead her outside. When they get outside, he looks for somewhere quiet and then stops in front of her, smiling.

Kellin laughs a little when Ansley catches him staring. "Sorry, I must look like a total goon sometimes," he says with a shake of his head. Kellin takes a drink of his water and then takes a deep breath. "Ok, I'll just say it now. When I was on tour, I realised how much I missed you and when we talked on the phone it brightened my entire day. Like literally every single time we spoke back then it made me feel so much better and like I had someone back home who cared about me. I realised then that I really really liked you so much. But since then I've spent time with you more, and when we were watching wrestling last week...it was...perfect. Just the best," he smiles. " You're so beautiful and amazing and I have the most amazing time with you. You're so perfect. I've...I've never said this to anyone in my life before, but I promise I mean it more than anything. Ansley...honestly...I love you," he says at last. When he hears it come out of his own mouth, it sounded just right. He knew that he meant it so it was the perfect time to tell her.

After he tells her he loves her, there's a brief moment when Kellin is a little nervous about how Ansley will react. He knew she wouldn't lie and say the same unless she meant it, so when he hears her say she loves him too, Kellin smiles widely as he feels the joy rush through him. For sure this was the first time he had ever been in love, and he couldn't imagine anyone more perfect to share it with. She was everything he could ever dream of in a girl and more. They loved the same things, she was sweet, caring, beautiful, fun and kind. When she squeezes his hand, Kellin does the same and takes a little step closer. "I just couldn't wait any longer to tell you how amazing you are and what you mean to me," he says softly, before he leans in and gives her a gentle but lingering kiss that illustrates just how much he really does love her. "You've made the last few months of my life so happy," he says with a smile as he holds her hand. "I'm so lucky to have found you."

Kellin smiles and rests his head against Ansley's forehead, staring into her eyes. He never imagined that there was someone out there that could make him this happy until he met her. "You are honestly just so perfect. I never could have dreamed that I would meet someone so amazing." He pulls her a little closer and lets his arms move around her waist. "You are the best friend and girlfriend anyone in the world could hope for. I promise I'll be a part of everything and I'll be there in your life for as long as you want me," he says with a little smile. "I don't ever want to be without you. This has been the best year of my life, and meeting you was the best part of that year."
