chapter 39

"Ok..." he says wearily...

"You're not gonna punch me in the face as well are you?" He jokes.

"Oh shut up," you laugh as you jokingly punch his arm.

"What are the conditions then?" He asks.

"One, you dont tell anyone you have been here, not even Will, and number two," you say, removing the hoodie you had on, "you wear this around your eyes while we walk there,"

"Deal," he says.

You hand it to him and he wraps it around his eyes. He holds out his hand for you, you take it and guide him to the place.

"Come on then," you say as you walk across the field that leads to the tree wall.

"We're here," you say after you walk into the clearing with everything.

You help him take off the blindfold and his jaw drops, his eyes widen and no words come out from his mouth.

"This- this is incredible," he says as his eyes scan across the area.

You grab his hand and lead him to the pond. You sit next to it.

"The other day, i was sat here with will and a little frog jumped on me," you say as you fondly recall that memory.

"This place is gorgeous," he says as he looks into the small pond.

"It is," you agree.

"So you come here every time?" He asks.

"Yeah," you sigh softly, "it kinda sucks how i have to have my own place away from everyone,"

"No, no its ok to need space," he reassures you as he gently places his hand on your knee.

"Is it?" You ask him as you gaze into his soft eyes.

"Yeah, of course it is," he smiles at you. You smile back and the two of you sit in a comfortable silence for a bit as you look around.

"What was the fight about?" He asks.

"He was just annoying me and he wouldnt get off of me," you say.

"Theres something more to it than that," he says.

"I think you're reading far too into it," you shrug.

"I dont know," he says.

"I've always had difficulty with authority if thats what you mean," you say.

"That could be it," he says.

"It just really annoyed me, like what does he mean it wouldnt suit me?" You rant.

"It seems like you just need to take a deep breath and do whatever feels right," he says, "whether that's getting your hair dyed or not,"

You nod, understandng fully as to what he meant.

"Yeah, you're right!" You say as you dial minx's number.

"Give me a sec," you say as you listen to the amount of rings it takes before she answers.

Ring... Ring... Ring...

"Hello?" You hear her Irish accent boom through the phone, the room she was in was very loud until she said your name, "y/n? Where are you?!"

"Will knows," you say, "but text your girl and book her for the day after tomorrow,"

"But-" she says.

"But nothing," you say, "what's life if you're not living on the edge?" You ask.

"AYY!" she says, "THATS THE SPIRIT GIRL!"

You chuckle at her reaction.

"Yeah, i'll text her now," she says.

"Good!" You say.

"Where is she?" You hear your brother ask.

"She said Will knows," minx says.

"Y/n, im gonna go and text her now," she says.

"I'll go get y/-" you hear will say before the phone cuts out.

You put your phone back in your pocket.

"She was excited," you giggle while explaining to Toby.

"You will look great, no matter what happens," he says.

"You think?" You ask.

"Y/n, i've never been more positive of anything in my life," he says.

You smile a bit.

He really loves you...
