"This prom is not my cup of tea. I would rather be on my roof watching stars."

"I have something for you." Christian said as he pulled out a piece of paper from his pocket.
We both were currently sitting in his jeep. He had called me today morning, asking me to meet him in half an hour.
"Okay. What is this about?" I asked.
"Just read it." He said as he handed me the paper. I looked down at the paper and my eyes widened.
It was an acceptance letter from the Football Tournament.
"You actually applied for it?" I asked him. To say I was surprised would be an understatement.
"Well, it was what you asked for your birthday present, isn't it?" He smiled.
"Yeah, but I didn't actually think that you would do it." I honestly stated.
"I can't deny the birthday girl's request now, can I?" He chuckled. "And also, my mom forced me to do it."
"God! I love Jenny." I chuckled.
"Of course you do. You both love troubling me." He rolled his eyes.
"Aww. Is Chrissy boy sad?" I teased him.
"Never ever call me that again." He glared at me. I just cheekily smiled.
"And I also have one more thing for you." He smiled as he took out a small box from his pocket and handed it to me. I raised my eyebrows at him. He just nodded and told me to open it.
I opened it to find a charm bracelet inside it. A smile graced my lips as I scanned the bracelet.
"That's a dress, signifying prom where we first met, which was exactly a month before." He chuckled.
A month. It had been a month since I met him. It feels like I have known him forever.
"Then that's a star, for-" I interrupted him.
"For the time you saved me from that hideous prom and took me stargazing." I chuckled and he nodded.
"There is also a burger. They didn't have a charm for Acqua Pazza. So I had to settle for a burger." He informed me.
"Thank god they didn't! Alberto's Acqua Pazza does not taste good." I chuckled.
"You got that right." He chuckled. "There's also an elephant."
"When we were at the Zoo." I smiled.
"And then there is much more space for many more memories." He smiled.
"I love it." I said as I clasped it on my wrist.
"I'm glad you did." He smiled.
And then we sat there, staring at each other. My eyes dropped down to his lips and back up to his eyes.
