Lizzie gets changed and we both enter the car. I pull out of the driveway and turn on the radio to fill the silence. After a while, she turns down the music and I can feel her staring at me with her big doe eyes and I can't help but smile.

"Can I help you?" I ask slightly blushing.

"Just admiring you and thinking about how lucky I am," she says and my heart skips a beat. She's so cute it drives me crazy.

"More like staring into my soul," I joke and she rolls her eyes.

"So where are you taking me?"

"You just have to have patients. We'll get there when we get there,"

"Ugh fine," she says and slumps back in the car seat frowning.

"You're such a child," I giggle at her and she gives me a death stare making me laugh even more.

Once we get there she looks confused which was exactly my plan.

"You brought me to an empty field with a bit of mud and a forest?" She asks and I nod.

"Yup! That's exactly what I did. Are you excited?!" I say energetically and I can tell she's conflicted on what to say.

"Y/n... I love you but what the heck are we doing here? I'm sorry but standing in a muddy field is not my idea of fun," she expresses and I pretend to be hurt.

"Wow, you really have no faith in me," I say sarcastically.

I grab her hand and start pulling her into the forest.

"Oh, I see. You're dragging me into a dark forest to kill me after what happened," she jokes and I can't help but laugh even though I'm still not fully I've the whole situation.

We get to a huge mud pile and Lizzie's boots are not deep at all but mine go all the way up to my knees. I step in front of her and bed down a little.

"Hop on," I tell her and she happily jumps on my back wrapping her arms around my neck.

I walk through the mud and end up outside a huge storage tent. I let her off my back and unzip the tent exposing the two four-wheelers. Her mouth drops and I smile at her reaction.

"Does this look more exciting?" I ask her hopefully.

"Um yeah! I've never ridden one of these before! Can you teach me?!" She asks excitedly bouncing up and down slightly.

"Of course, I can. That's why we're here! I have one at the farm too but I wanted to teach you out here first because it's an open area. That way there's nothing to crash into," I explain.

I motion for her to come over and I explain what all the buttons do, and how to work the vehicle. I tell her to get on and I sit behind her, holding the handlebars so she is in between my arms.

"Oh, I almost forgot!" I say and get off of the machine. I walk over and grab the two helmets placing one of them into her head. Her face gets all scrunched up in the helmet and it is adorable.

I get back on and start the four-wheeler pulling out slowly getting into the main field. Once we are out there I go through all the steps and show her how hard to press the gas to get certain speeds.

We wheel around for a couple of minutes as she observes my movements before she decides to try it on her own.

"Are you sure you got this? Do you want me to sit on the back just in case?" I ask her, a little worried.

"Nope! I'm fine! I can do this," she tells me and I step away letting her do her thing.

I watch her drive away making donuts in the field like she has been doing it her whole life. She seems to have no fear and I like it. She's not afraid to try something new. But, boy is she hot riding the four-wheeler. She looks perfect.
