Everyone has heard of the Godfathers the definitive representation of what it is to be an Italian Mafioso, from the dusty mountainside of Sicily to the posh New York avenues.
Some choose to leave the fatherland for greener pastures; some turn the du...

First dates are really special for a person, but what is even more extra special; a person's first ever date in their lives. Sounds like gibberish let me explain.
I have never been asked on a date in my life, like ever. Giovanni is not like just a dude I am going on a first date with, he is my first ever boyfriend.
I was really excited when he told me about it and also about the proposal in front of the entire fucking school. I couldn't sleep late into the night out of anticipation and excitement. I spent the entire night dreaming about how the next day would turn out.
I was dreaming of the surprises and awkwardness between us, the sheer number of nerves
Things are slowly getting bad and I am kind of feeling nauseous about the whole affair. First it started off badly with me not being able to figure out the "proper" outfit, if it wasn't for Emilia I wouldn't be able to make it.
Now this fucker I call my boyfriend was driving into some strange forested road for my surprise date, away from all civilisation and I was kinda starting to feel he was a sexy vampire or werewolf who would drink my blood.
The car had stopped abruptly near a forested path. "The car cannot move any further and I am going to park it somewhere around here and we will have to walk" Giovanni said calmly. I couldn't take it anymore "Giovanni what the hell is going one where are you taking me, its already getting dark and I don't want to spend my first date here" I said nervously.
"Don't panic I am here with you, be patient for the next 20 minutes you will find out why I brought you here. Please trust me" he said reassuringly. I got out of the car and he parked it before joining me. He used his phone's flashlight to illuminate the way for me.
After a walk of around 20 odd minutes, we reached a clearing that gave way to a breath-taking view. The lake had clear water, so clear that you could see your reflection in it perfectly like a mirror and the sky was a brilliant hue of orangish-red thanks to the setting sun.
There was an isolated lake with a beautiful lake house, which was illuminated by yellow lights. Saying the view was breath-taking would be an understatement. Everything was perfectly arranged beforehand.
