My walls were slowly crashing down.
I don't know how but Jack made me feel safe when I was around him. He made me feel wanted, like I was someone special to him.

I still have that pang of fear, that he will leave me. That my past will scare him, or make him feel embarrassed to hang out with me. Or that my past will just give him a reason to ditch me.

Hopefully he doesn't leave me.
-----------------------------------------
It's currently 7:30 on a Saturday night, and I'm trying to figure what I'm going to wear. Jack asked me if I wanted to go out to dinner with him tonight and I couldn't turn down that smile :).

Searching through my closet, I finally decide on a red patterned flannel, with denim shorts, and black and white vans. (In the picture)
I straightened my hair, and applied some mascara and foundation.

I grabbed my phone and wallet, and shuffled down the stairs. As I reached the bottom the doorbell rang.
Jacks here.
I ran as quick as possible to it, but of course Liz already got it.
I slowly pushed her away from the door before she could say anything else to him. I shut the door as quickly as possible. But before I made it 3 steps out of the door my dad came out.
"Hey, where you going kiddo? Oh and who is this?" He said with a friendly smile while walking over to Jack.
"Oh.. Uh dad this is-"
"Jack Gilinsky sir." Jack said while shaking my dads hand.
"Nice to meet you. So where are you two headed?" My dad said looking between us
I was about to respond but Jack thankfully took over.
"We were just going to go grab some dinner sir, if that ok with you." Jack said while gulping.
My dad was a bigger guy. Very broad and muscular. I guess it had an effect on Jack cause he was awfully nervous.

It was cute. Wait what?!
I moved over closer to Jack and squeezed his arm, reassuring him It was ok. My dad didn't seem to notice.

"Yeah that fine, just make sure you get home soon though. You know.. cause of the.. anniversary tomorrow ." My dad said while looking away for a moment.
I realized what today was before answering.
"Yeah.. Um of course. I'll be home soon."
"Alright sweetheart... Have fun." My dad said before saying goodbye to Jack and going inside.

My and Jack got in his car. Everything was silent except for the dim music in the background. My thoughts were wondering like crazy.
"Hey Chels?"
"Hmm?"
"What did your dad mean by anniversary?"
Oh shit, I can't tell him about my mom. At least not yet.
"Oh um nothing. Just some family things." I said while looking out the window.
"Oh ok." He said before grabbing my hand and intertwining our fingers.
"And by the way.." He said while glancing over to me.
"Yeah?"
"You look beautiful."
I looked down hiding my blush. He noticed and chuckled a little.
After a few moments of comfortable silence I decided to speak up.
"So where are we going?" I asked becoming suspicious as we passed every restaurant in town.
"That's for me to know and you to find out." He said with a wink.
"Oh god." I said and we both laughed.
------------------------------------
After 15 more mins of driving we finally arrived at wherever Jack was taking me.
I was about to get out of the car, but Jack stopped me and told me to put a blindfold on.
I put it on, while he guided me out of the car.

We walked until he told me to stop.
He walked up behind me and took the blindfold off.
I gasped at the sight.
There was a open field, with this big orchard tree with lights hung in it. Under the tree there was a blanket with pizza boxes under it.
"Oh my god, Jack. You didn't have to do all of this." I said feeling slightly bad for him doing all this work.
"No I wanted to." He said while hugging me.
"Well thank you." I said while hugging back.
"Your welcome. Well how about we eat some pizza?" He said while clapping his hands together and licking his lips.
"Sounds like a plan." I said while chuckling.
--------------------------------
After we ate Jack lead me through the woods, telling me to be quiet every time I would ask where we were going.

He put the blindfold back over my eyes before we got to where we were going.
"Ready?" He said whispering in my ear.
Sending shivers down my spine.
I nodded my head.

"Alright." He said while taking the blindfold off my eyes.
