First Aniversary

chapter 12

"First Aniversary"

(Mark's POV)

Kim and I grew stronger and stronger. In about 5 days time its gonna be our 1 year aniversary. I know , I cant believe it either. Weve been together for almost a year now. That feels amazing. To my luck she had been responding well with Chemo therapy so thats good. I have been so lucky for the past year. Meeting her was the best thing that happened in my life. I wish that it will remain that way FOREVER. i love her more than anything and i know she loves me as much and im internaly greatful for that.

Its now thursday in the afternoon, 3 days till the but i still dont have anything for. Dang it!! what will i get her?. A phone? a car ? a bracelet? hmmmmm. Ill figure something out . Enough about that, so, Thursday afternoon, Im walking will kimmi near the shore. Its free period so we went to the beach. It was near our school so we just walked.

I notice kim was deep in thought. I could sense it through her expression.

"hey kimmi you ok?" i squeezed her hand tightly. She just smile and nodded. What was she thinking about? Was anything troubling her?. I dont want to force her so i tried my best to let it go.

"Kim want to go to the park?"

" Id love to mark" her smile was intoxicating.

"lets go back to the school and get my car" she nodded and then we started walking towards the school hand in hand. I cant seem to get used to how kim's touch gives me tingles all around my body. Girly, i know but its true, she really does makes me feel that way.

We arrived at the school parking lot and quickly got into my car. The drive was quick yet silent. Not awkward silent though.

We walked around the park, hand in hand, still. She suddenly stopped and started looking around. I wonder what she was looking at, so i turned my head to the direction she was looking at. No wonder she was looking at it, It was a very nice view of the mountains. Ive never seen it before. It was a sight worth looking at really just like when i look at dear kimmi. She stared at it for 15mins. She felt peacefull. Like her troubles went away at that instant then grabbed my hand and we sat on the bench infront of the view she laid her head on my shoulder and squeezed my hand. There goes the tingles again. I kissed her forehead and sat there for hours.

"I love you mark" she whispered while kissing my hand.

"i love you too kimmi, forever"

"and always."

we continued staying there until it was dark. I dont know why but maybe it was because of 'the moment' its like peacefull and romantic, like no one was there but us. We had everything we wanted right then and there.

(Kim's POV)

weve been sitting there for about 4 hours now. We watched the sun set and the moon rise. Its actually very romantic being both of us sitting side by side, hand in hand and my head on his shoulder infront of a very breathtaking view. Butterflies filled my stomach plus a very comforting warmth from him. Its a wonderful night.

When he said that we should go home i felt like i never want to leave. But the thought that mom and dad is probably waiting for me so i agreed.

-Aniversary-

i woke up today very happy. The thought that its Mark and I's 1st aniversary. He told me he has a suprise for me so he'll pick me up today. I took a look at my watch, it was 8:30 and mark is picking me up in about thirty minutes. Shit i need to get ready. I quickly got a shower. I wore a yellow sundress that flowed knee lever, a pair of red pumps, I let my hair flow, i just applied a little eyeliner and mascara and pale pink lipgloss.
