"So what are we doing today?" Austin came up behind me. I was currently sitting down by the kitchen island playing Candy Crush on my phone.

I locked my phone and swirled the stool to face his direction. "Well I'm about to go run some errands."

"And I'll come with." He invited himself.

"Yeah no. I have to do this alone." I laughed.

"Babe come on, let me go with you." He gave me a puppy face.

"What did you say?" I smirked.

"I said 'Babe come on, let me go with you.'". He repeated.

"One more time." I said.

"Babe come on, let me go with you." He repeated once more.

"You don't even know where I'm going."

"Wherever you go, just know that I'll be a couple feet away." He pecked my lips.

"And I thought I was the smooth one here." I smirked up at him.

"I guess you're just rubbing off on me babe." He winked.

"Looks like I need to step up my game." I nodded my head. "Fine if you want to go, I'm leaving in 5 minutes."

"Sounds good babe." He emphasized the word babe.

I raised my eyebrow at him.

"I know how you love when I call you that." He smiled.

"Awh you pay attention to me." I laughed as I pulled him into me for a hug.

"It's kind of hard not to." He kissed the top of my head.

I blushed and ran upstairs. "I'll go tell everyone where we're going."

----------------------------------------------

"So what exactly are we doing here?" Austin asked.

We were parked outside of a tiny flower shop.

"I told you, I have to run some errands." I turned the car off. "You coming or not?"

He got off the car I had rented for our stay. I still had to go pick up my car from the shop.
Austin met me on the other side and he automatically reached for my hand.

"What are you doing?" I asked surprised.

"What has a guy never held your hand before?" He said casually.

I shrugged it off and made our way inside the flower shop.

"After you." Austin held the door open for me.

"Wow, you're just full of surprises aren't you?" I giggled.

"Only for the best." He let go of my hand as he held the door open for me and as soon as we got inside, our fingers intertwined once again.

"Hi I came to pick up my order." I told the guy behind the counter, his name tag read Dylan.

"Name please." Dylan said.

"Katherine Garcia." I replied politely.

Dylan nodded his head in response and headed to the back to get my order.

"I'll be right back." Austin let go of my hand and wandered around the aisles full of flowers.

Dylan soon returned with the bouquet of flowers I had ordered. "Here you go, that will be $12.60."

I grabbed a 20 dollar bill and handed it to the cashier. Once he handed me my change, I turned around to leave but realized that Austin was no where to be seen.

"Austin?" I called out.

"Boo!" He came out of an aisle and scared me.

"Austin that's not funny!" I smacked his arm.

"Ouch, feisty much?" He rubbed his arm.

"Let's go." I pulled on his hand.

"And who's that for?" He pointed to the bouquet of tulips I was carrying.

"I told you, I'm running errands." We exited the store.

"How long is this going to take exactly?" We got inside of the car.

"Just a few minutes." I placed the tulips in the back seat.

He nodded his head in agreement and I started the car. Five minutes into the drive, my surroundings started becoming very familiar.

"We're here." I sighed as I put the car on park.

"Why are we at a cemetery?" He said slowly.

I reached over and grabbed the bouquet of tulips and opened my door. "I came to visit my grandmother."
