FRANKIE'S P.O.V.

I put on a casual dress and some white converse, tying my hair in a high ponytail. I applied some natural looking makeup and looked in the mirror.

"Ready," I thought.

I couldn't believe this was happening right now. He liked me too? That was a first.

CHRISTIAN'S P.O.V.

I put on some khaki's and a pale blue tee shirt with black vans. I brushed through my hair a few times, which for me was pretty rare.

I sprayed on cologne and jumped into the car.

"Flowers, I need to get flowers."

I drove to the closest florist and quickly picked out a bouqet of peonies.

"Just these?" The cashier said.

"Yes, thanks."

"She must be pretty special for a full bouqet."

"Yeah, she is," I smiled as I handed the nice lady the money in exchange for the flowers. "Thanks again."

I put the flowers in the passanger seat and started to Frankie's house.

Once I got there, I threw a mint into my mouth and walzed up to the front door and knocked.

A few seconds later, the door opened and Frankie's beautiful face showed.

"Hello," she giggled.

"Hey," I smiled. "Uh, I got you flowers."

Her mouth widened. "Really? Thank you so much, they are gorgeous! How'd you know peonies were my favorite?"

"Good guess," I grinned.

"Cece, please put these in a vase, I will be back in a bit," Frankie said as she gave her little cousin a hug.

"Ready?" I asked, holding my arm out.

She nodded and took hold to my arm as I walked her to the car. Once we both got in and buckled, I turned on the radio and Bon Iver played.

"Sorry, you can change it if you want," I said.

"No! Bon Iver is one of my favorites," she grinned. "Do you have 'For Emma, Forever Ago?' It's my favorite album."

"Yeah, it's my favorite too," I smiled, turning on "Flume."

We drove in silence for a few seconds before she asked, "Where are we going?"

"I thought we could have a picnic on the beach."

She smiled brightly. "I've always wanted to do that actually."

"Me too," I grinned.

After a few minutes, we arrived to the beach. I parked and got the picnic basket out as Frakie brought the blanket.

"Is right here good?" I questioned, before setting the basket down in the sand.

"Perfect," she smiled.

We laid the blanket down and sat, then started to get the food out. I had gotten almost everything in my fridge because I didn't know what she liked.

After awhile of eating and talking, it started getting chillier.

"Do you want my jacket," I asked as I noticed some goosebumps pop up on her skin.

"Thank you," she smiled once again, taking the jacket around her.

We sat for awhile and told everything that we needed to know to each other. Every word that came out of her mouth made me fall for her even more...
