Crystalline's POV
Today is my date with Ace, he said to wear something comfy and casual. I wear a white off shoulder and a jumper then pair it with white pumps and a black bag.

I look at my appearance at the mirror and take a selfie then I heard a beep, knowing that it's Ace, I rush downstairs and got out to see him holding a rose

I look at my appearance at the mirror and take a selfie then I heard a beep, knowing that it's Ace, I rush downstairs and got out to see him holding a rose. "Thank you!" I smell it and got in. "Where are you taking me?" I cutely ask, thinking that he will give me the answer but no. "You're cute but that will not affect me" I sigh and just wait.

After about an hour we arrive at a lake, "what are we doing here?" I ask as I got out and look around. "We're having a picnic" he answered. I look in the distance to see a small setup of picnic cloth and food by the dock.

"Wow this is beautiful!" I admired the scenery in front of us. "Do you like it?" I nod and kiss his cheek. I sit down and put the lid away revealing different kinds of food. We have pasta, pizza, chicken salad and a wine.

"Did you cook all of this?" He nods, "let's dig in" I enthusiastically say, excited to taste everything. First I eat the pasta and let me tell you, it taste so good, then I eat the salad and taking a bit of the pizza. "Does it taste good?" He nervously ask. "Yes, did you order the pizza?" He nods and take a slice. Then silence surrounded us but not the awkward one, a peaceful one.

"Thank you for this, it takes my mind off things" I suddenly say breaking the silence. "Anything for you" I move closer to him and cuddle with him. "At first, I really thought you're a liar and a manipulating woman but as I get to know you, you're more than that" I look up to see him already looking at me. "Then I started getting curious to who you are, I know you're hiding something big and scared to say it" he stop before continuing, "When we started dating, I feel things that I normally don't. Having butterflies when I see you smile or laugh. Loving the attention you're giving me and many more that I can't explain" he smiled while saying that to me, making me melt at his words, "when you told me about your past, I feel the need to protect you even though I know you can do that. I hate it when you cry, sad about something or in pain. I want to always hear your laugh, your sweet voice and see that beautiful smile of yours" I started tearing up then it falls when he said, "Then I realize I'm falling for you or should I say, I already did. I love you, Crystalline" I hug him and whispered, "I love you too" then kiss him on the lips. The kiss was short, passionate and full of love. We pull away when we can't breathe. I lean against him and stare at the scene in front of us until it started getting dark.
