I wake up the next morning feeling incredibly happy. Henry's still asleep so I get up and take a quick shower. Memories of last night flood my mind and I can't stop the blush from spreading across my cheeks. I've never experienced anything like that in my life. After my shower I get dressed in some shorts and a red tank top, with my old converses. Then I straighten my hair and apply some light eye liner and mascara.

When I walk out of the bathroom I see Henry and he's still asleep. I smile softly as I go over to him. I kiss his cheeks, nose, forehead, chin, I kiss the corner of his mouth. He wakes up and kisses my lips. I smile. Oh Henry. He pulls back with a smile.

" I love you." He says. I smile, feeling the warmth spreading over my heart.

" I love you too." I reply. He smiles.

" I know." He says quietly.

" So....." I say. " Last night....." I continue with a blush. He smiles looking up into my eyes.

" Was the best night of my life." He finishes. I smile, silently agreeing.

" Yeah." I mumble, my face heating up.

It was the best night of my life. I know that Henry is going to stay with me the rest of my life. I wouldn't want it any other way. I love him. I'll always love him. He's my one and only as cheesy and cliché as that sounds. He's my mate, true love, and best friend. I don't know what'd I do if I lost him. I feel more connected with Henry now. His brown eyes look over at me.

" What are you thinking about?" He asks. I blush.

" You, me, us." I say, he smiles.

I just love his smiles. Not being able to help myself I lean over and plant a soft kiss on his lips. He smiles being caught by surprise. Just as I'm pulling away he leans over and captures my lips with his once again. When our lips connect, just like any other time, it feels like a million sparks and shocks erupt. We pull back and look into each others eyes. I smile.

" Come on. Let's go somewhere." I say standing up. He nods standing up. He's only wearing shorts, showing off his toned abs. I can't help but stare at them. He catches me staring and winks and I blush looking away.

" Hold on. I'll be ready in a minute." He says going into the bathroom. I just nod and slip my phone into my back pocket, ignoring all the new text messages and missed calls. Oh well, I'll explain later where I was.

" Okay. Ready?" He asks, coming out of the bathroom.

" Yep. Where do you wanna go?" I ask.

" You wanna go get breakfast first?" He asks. I nod.

" Yeah." I say.

We go out to Henry's car and get in. He drives us to the closest diner. The ride is silent but comfortable, not awkward. When were there we get out and go in. An old waitress takes our order as we sit in a booth. She gives us a friendly smile. I smile back.

" What can I get y'all lovely couple to drink?" She asks, her voice has a slight country accent to it. I smile.

" Sweet tea." I say. She scribbles it down and looks to Henry.

" I'll have the same." He says.

She nods and goes to get our drinks, leaving the menu at our table. Hmmm. I know what I want. The nick mouse pancake. Henry is just staring at me with a small smile covering his lips. I smile back, and add a wink. He chuckles. Oh that chuckle! I put my menu down just as the waitress, her name tag says Maggie, comes back with our drinks.

" Are y'all ready?" She asks. Henry looks over at me and I nod.

" Yes, we are." Henry answers.
