The Season of Love

Act VI; Waves Be Calmer; Love In The Summer

Summer will be here in June and we are busy with our lives. I have yet to make plans for our summer date and I thought that the beach near town would be the perfect place to enjoy ourselves in the summer sun. A picnic would be nice, I would have to remember to put your favourite food.

Down at the seaside, I covered your eyes and walked you to the picnic. You blinked open and you were surprised by the sight. I remembered how your lips curved into a smile of elation on your face; it will be ingrained into my mind for eternity.

After our picnic, we took a dip into the deep blue sea. I still have one more surprise after our ocean dip; I'll be taking you to the island across the seaside by boat. I love your reaction and that was enough for me to feel happy and rewarded. Then, I got a bright idea; sure the Titanic may not have the most beloved ending that everyone wished for, but you can't overlook the romantic moment of Jack and Rose enjoying the sunset view on the ship.

Silly as it sounds, I knew it would make you laugh; and I was right. You were the jolliest little bean that I wished to keep in a bottle. We reached the island shore and I took you to snorkelling in the reef; I remembered this was your favourite activity as a kid and I want to bring that memory back to you. When the sunset rolled in, I took you a stroll around the island. You wrote our names in the sand and a vow; an oath that we shall keep till death do us part. Wait, why did it sound like an unofficial wedding? Maybe that was what I had wanted when I confessed my love to you. Don't worry, my sweet; our time will come and I promise to get those rings!

I brought you to the mid-summer festival in July; the carnival was bustling and happening. I brought you to various gaming booths to try out all of my childhood games. We also took a ride on the carousel; many children were looking at us but I couldn't care less. In fact, when I marry you, I would love to have children of our own.

I wish we could stay like this forever; sadly, I'll be getting a promotion at my job by the end of the summer; which was in August. You seemed sad yet happy about that milestone. I knew I needed to make it the best month of our lives so I scheduled a date in the middle of that month.
