"Hey, sorry about that. Gina just needed my help with something." Ricky says as him and Summer walk into the living room.
"No. It's okay." Summer tells him sitting down. She watches as he grabs his guitar. "What are you doing?"
"Every since we'e got together we have always given songs to each other as presents so I wanted to sing you a song I wrote when you were with Landon." Ricky explains sitting next to her, placing the guitar on his lap, looking at her. "There is also something else I want to give to you after."
"Okay." Summer replies.
Ricky smiles at her before starting to play.

You say you gotta think it over
I can't stop thinkin' of you
Is he the guy you want to hold ya
I'll be here when you need me to

Make you feel beautiful in the morning
Light you up when the rain won't stop pouring
'Cause there's a million little things I haven't told ya
It kills me every-time he's with you, so

How am I suppose to think about anything else?
How am I to go on keeping this to myself?
I am done pretending I want anyone else
Anyone else
Anyone else

Ooh, anyone else
Ooh, anyone else

And now the days are getting longer
I'm caught day-dreamin' of you
I'm still waiting for my happy ever after
When you're ready, I'll be ready to

Make you feel beautiful in the morning
Light you up when the rain won't stop pouring
'Cause there's a million little things I haven't told ya
It kills me every-time he's with you, so

How am I suppose to think about anything else?
How am I to go on keeping this to myself?
I am done pretending I want anyone else
Anyone else
Anyone else

The world melts away when I'm with you
And I know you're afraid to jump too soon, oh
But I promise if you would
I'd love you better then he ever could
Girl, we'd have it good, we'd have it good

How am I suppose to think about anything else?
How am I to go on keeping this to myself?
I am done pretending I want anyone else
Anyone else
Anyone else

I keep hoping it'll only be a matter of time
'Til the memories faded and the feeling subsides
I won't help, I can't settle for anyone else
Anyone else
Anyone else

"Ricky, that was incredible thank you." Summer says with a smile.
"There's still one more thing." Ricky says pulling a ring box out his pocket and kneeling down in front of her.
"Ricky, we're..." Summer starts.
"No, no, it's not that. At least not right now. One day it will be, I know it will." Ricky says. "But this..." He opens the ring box and a small rose gold diamond ring was inside. "This is a promise ring, to show how much I love you."
"Ricky." Summer says shocked putting a hand over her mouth as Ricky slides the ring onto her finger on her other hand. "I love it. And I love you."
"Love you to, baby." Ricky says kissing her.
"Okay, now sit down. I got to give you my present." Summer says.
Ricky does as Summer told her.
Summer pulls her small portable keyboard from her bag.
"Guess we had the same idea." Ricky says with a laugh.
"Guess we did." Summer replies putting the keyboard on the coffee table and sitting on the floor in front of it.
Summer takes a breath before starting to play.

So much on my mind
Sometimes I can't escape it
Need a place to run and hide enough
Only so much I can take yeah

Silver lining, you came in
Break a smile even when it rain on us
Thinking I could just stay here
Forever and on
I feel it with us
I'm right where I belong

That's why I'm
I'm so caught up in the moments like this
That's why I
Nothing matters when I'm

In a utopia
Whenever I'm close to ya
No need to stop the rush
Never feeling alone
Always feel like I'm home

In a utopia
Whenever I'm close to ya
No need to stop the rush
Never feeling alone
Always feel like I'm home

All we got is time
With you it's never wasted
Wish I could spend it all with you
But I hardly get a break, yeah

Silver lining, you came in
Break a smile even when it rain on us
Thinking I could just stay here
Forever and on
I feel it with us
I'm right where I belong

That's why I'm
I'm so caught up in the moments like this
That's why I
Nothing matters when I'm

In a utopia
Whenever I'm close to ya
No need to stop the rush
Never feeling alone
Always feel like I'm home

In a utopia
Whenever I'm close to ya
No need to stop the rush
Never feeling alone
Always feel like I'm home

"I love it, Sum." Ricky tells her.
"Really?" Summer asks.
"Of course." Ricky replies as Summer stands up and walks over to him.
"I also got you this." Summer says handing him a small box.
He looks at her before opening it to find a charm bracelet with 'R' and 'S' charms with a heart charm between the two letters.
"It's perfect." Ricky says standing up before leaning down and kissing her.
"First I was a guy who now wears necklaces and now I'm a guy who wears bracelets as well." Ricky says sliding the bracelet onto his wrist.
Summer smiles before playing with the necklace which had been around Ricky's neck ever since opening night of 'Hugh School Musical' while Ricky does the same with her necklace.

The day after valentines day, Summer and Ricky had found themselves sat on the grass in the park, having a picnic. Madelyn was taking Summer and Ellie to California for a couple weeks as a way of helping them more with their parents. But a storm was due to come on the day they were meant to be taking off, so Summer wasn't 100% sure they would be able to make it. But, her and Ricky decided to treat it like it was gonna happen just in case it would. They wanted to make the most of the time they had together before being apart for two weeks.
"Can you believe Nini came down to surprise us?" Ricky asks as Summer takes a bite of a strawberry.
"No, I can not." Summer says. "She's Nini. She's awful at keeping secrets without telling no one, so I'm surprised to managed to this time."
"True." Ricky says.
Ricky pulls his phone out videoing Summer as she takes enough bite of the strawberry.
"Ricky." Summer sighs as she drops the strawberry.
"What?" Ricky asks with a knowing smile.
"No." Summer says laughing shaking her head and covering her face with her hands
"Hey." Ricky says using his hand not holding his phone to remove her hands from her face.
He keeps hold of one of them, kissing her knuckles before stopping the recording and putting his phone down.
"I love you, Summer Marie Jones." Ricky tells her.
"I love you to Richard Micky Bowen." Summer replies.
The two smile at each other before both of them lean in.
