"Outskirt of town?" I yelled immediately Hero drove out of town.
Hero said nothing but grinned evilly."You're not kidnapping me right Hero?" I gasped then looked at him. "Don't tell me you work for mafias who need sex slaves."
"You idiot, you're my best friend. Why the hell would I sell you to mafias?" He asked. "And plus if I was doing that, do you think it'll be reasonable if I tell you?"
"Stupid." He muttered shaking his head.
"I wish I carried my phone." I said.
"Too bad so sad." He said in a sing song manner.
He suddenly parked and we both came out of his car.
He locked the door then walked over to me."Where is this place?" I asked looking at the ugly looking place.
It was like a forest, scratch that it was a forest."Don't worry. You may wanna hop on my back though." He said.
"Nope I'm good." I declined.
"Don't say I didn't tell you." He shrugged then grabbed my hands and we walked into the forest.
* * *
"Is the offer of hoping on your back still on?" I asked panting. We were still in the forest and I was getting tired.
He smirked suddenly.
Don't say I told you so. Don't say I told you so."I told you so." He said then bent down. I hopped on his back and he secured me with his hands under my thighs.

"We're here." He announced."Wow." I muttered looking around.
It was like we were on top the world.
The sky was filled with stars and the City lights made it more beautiful."Beautiful right?" He asked and I nodded.
"I'm the king of the world." He yelled making me giggle.
"Oh shut up Hero." I said.
"Oh and I brought food." He announced showing me a picnic basket I never realized was there.
He opened it then brought out two sandwiches, two apples, two bottles of beer root and two packs of chocolate chips."Oh thank God cause I'm hungry." I said to him. He spread a sheet on the floor then placed all the things on it.
"Figured you'll be. I came over after practice and your mum and this hot guy said you were asleep which means you didn't eat dinner." He explained then gestured for me to sit.
I nodded then sat next to him."The view's beautiful right?" He whispered as we looked at the sky.
"Yeah it is." I whispered back.
"Just like you." He said making my heart flutter.
"Why are you even doing this bucket list stuff?" He suddenly asked.
Ahhh... I knew he was curious."It's just that since I've been in high school, my life has been boring—"
"I do not disagree." Hero piped in. I glared at him.
"—and since I'm leaving highschool soon, I've decided to just do something fun with my life." I added.
"I gotta hand it to you, your list is damn. I mean smoke, make out with a random stranger, get a boyfriend. Damn." He said making me laugh.
"I wasn't actually going to use the list but you walked in unfortunately." I muttered the last part quietly but he heard it.
"At least one down, twelve more to go." He said.
We laid there and I think I slept off on the floor.
* * *
"Wake up Tess." Someone said tapping my hand."Leave me alone." I mumbled pushing the person away.
"Wake up Tess you need to get home. It's already midnight." Hero said making me jump up.
