"Is there any chance that you're going to tell me where we are going now?", I ask, though I already have a feeling what Soda's reply will be. I was right. "Nope.", he says, letting go of my hand, and putting an arm around my shoulders. I sigh,but don't push him further. Instead, I wrap my arms around Soda, and cuddle into him as we walk. We walk in silence, and soon arrive at the park. Instead of stopping though, we keep walking, and Soda lead me down a trail in the woods. After a few minutes, we arrive at a river bank. The sun had just began to set, and the river is glistening like a thousand crystals. "Oh my...", I murmur, completely mesmerized. I could almost hear the smile in Soda's voice when he says, "Isn't it beautiful?". I nod, too much in awe to talk. "Not as beautiful as you...", Soda whispers in my ear, causing my head to whip up. My cheeks flush and my pulse accelerates when I realize how close we are. "I-I think I love you, Zara-Mae.", Soda says, looking intensely into my eyes. My eyes widen, but I already know how to reply. I kiss him swiftly, before saying, "I think I love you too, Sodapop. No, I know  I do.". Soda smiles, and gathers me into a hug. Once we separate, I sit down, dragging Soda down with me, before climbing into his lap. Soda craddles me, pressing his lips to my head. We stay there like that, as the crickets chirp, and the owls hoot. It's perfect, and I wouldn't trade this moment for the world.

Before I know it, it's time for me to go home. "But I don't wanna.", I whine, sounding like a three year old, as I tug on Soda's arm. Soda chuckles, booping my nose, treating me like a three year old. "But ya hafta.", he whines back, and picks me up, bridal style. Then, nuzzling my nose, he murmurs, "I don't want'chya to either.". I bite my lip, and Soda kisses me softly, and sweetly. "Oh, fine.", I grumble, and Soda laughs, not setting me down as we walk to my house. When we finally arrive at my house, I am already half asleep. "Zara? Zara honey, you gotta get up.", Soda mumurs, nudging me, but I don't budge. Soda sighs. "Alrighty then.", he says, carrying me in my house, and up to my room. "Good night, Zara-Mae.", he whispers, setting me down, and making a move to leave. I grab his arm. "No, stay. Please.", I say groggily, not opening my eyes. "But... But what about your parents?", he asks, sounding slightly nervous. "Didn't I just sleep over at your house? We'll figure that part out in the morning. Just stay...", I mumble, as I begin to slip into a slumber. "Oh, alright...", Soda says, laying down next to me. I cuddle into him, as he wraps his arms around me, falling into a deep sleep. "I love you...", is the very last thing I hear, before drifting off completely.
