Zina is a grave sin. Allah has prescribed severe punishment for Zina.

As you stated you have made thauba may Allah accept your duas? Keep in mind
that thauba also means not returning to that sin again. As for marring the
girl this is a very great step in your life. You should firstly make
Istikhara as well as make Mashwara (consult) with your seniors and then
decide.

and Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
