This is a sequel to 'Unrequited Love' but can be read as a stand alone.

"Seriously? An animal zoo?" I ask her incredulously.
"Why do you guys have to call it animal zoo? Of course, zoo consists of animals only." she replies in a 'duh' tone.
"You...

"Bambi, where are you taking me?" He asks as I drag him towards the car.
"Don't you trust me?" I ask, looking at him over my shoulder with a pout.
"Of course, I do. But it's Sunday today and you woke me up at eight in the morning." He nearly whines.
I sigh and open the passenger side door for him, "Sit, your highness." I say, gesturing towards the seat.
He stares at me for a while and eventually sits in the car and I close the door after him. I round the car and settle in the driver's seat.
"Liza, baby, I'd die for you. But whatever you have planned, it better be good." He says and rests his head against the headrest.
"I hope it is." I mutter under my breath.
For the next thirty minutes, we sit in silence with only the light hum of the car serving as background music. I briefly glance at Nick to see him asleep with his mouth slightly agape.
After a few more minutes, I park my car outside a deserted park and place my hand on Nick's shoulder. He shrugs my hand off and I take off my seatbelt before leaning into him, "Nick." I whisper in his eyes.
He cracks one eye open, looks at me and then goes back to sleep. I sigh and get out of the car to open the passenger side door.
"Nick, you wake up this instant." I say shaking his shoulders.
He finally peels his eyes open and sits up, "Liza, come here. Let's cuddle."
"You'll get all the cuddles you want." I reply.
"Really?" He asks with a lazy smile.
"Really. But only if you get out of the car right now."
He groans and eventually steps out of the car to look around, "Where have you brought me, woman?"
I giggle softly, "Somewhere I can murder you and dump your body without anyone finding out."
"Is that so?" He smirks, closing the door behind him.
I shrug my shoulders innocently, "Everyone will believe my story because this face is too innocent." I say pointing at my face.
His smirk deepens, "I will haunt you for the rest of your life."
"I wouldn't want it any other way." I say and he leans down to peck my lips.
"Now, where are we?"
"It's a park I found last year. It's usually deserted since it's at the outskirts of the town so I find it really peaceful." I tell him, grabbing his hand.
He nods his head and we make our way inside, "I just noticed." Nick says all of a sudden.
"That you look absolutely beautiful even at nine in the morning." He comments looking down at my extra fancy dress, making me blush.
