Tre´’s P.O.V.
We were just driving along Lake Shore Drive and talking. I wanted to take the long way. The more time I had with her, the better. Man, this girl is amazing. She’s so full of light. It’s like she’s this innocent little girl who hasn’t experienced life yeah. I love that about her. She just seems just so, just so, I can’t even describe it.
“So Hazel, how did you find out who I was?”
“Well, when i was younger, I went through something. To escape my pain, I would go on youtube looking for something to laugh at. To get my spirits up. I was watching some video and you showed up in the related videos section. I clicked and fell in love.”
“Wow. If you don’t mind me asking, what happened to you? You’re extremely beautiful and look like you don’t have a care in the world. You don’t look like you’ve ever had a worry in the world. You have not one scar on you.”
“Well, it’s a lot I went through. Im not really comfortable talking about it. It hurt to talk about it. I get emotional. No one really knows. I cover it up well huh?”
“Hell yeah! But I won’t pressure your pretty little face to tell me. It would kill me to see you cry.”
“How can you be so sure you like me so much. You don’t even know me!,” She said laughing and smiling. Gosh her smile can light up the world.
“I know what I want Hazel. Im a grown man. I can control my emotions. But with you it’s different. I can’t keep still. I can’t keep my mind off of you Hazel. You drive me crazy. When I feel, its always legit. I’ve never felt this way before. You’re special. I feel it. And Im not letting you walk away from me,” We were are a red light so I stopped and looked her deep in her eyes. I could tell she was about to cry.
Hazel’s P.O.V.
I was about to burst into tears. I didn’t know he felt this way about me. It felt good to hear that. I don’t think anyone has ever felt like that about me. I had little boyfriends in Middle School and High School, but none of them were serious. I can’t believe he actually said it. To me, of all people, to me. I was in utter shock and speechless. I was about to open my mouth to speak when he put his finger on my lips and told me don’t talk.
“Don’t talk Hazel. Let me show you Im serious,” At that he leaned over this seat and kissed me. Deeply.
I was shocked. I always imagined his lips to be extremely soft. I was right. They were heavenly. The streets were pretty much empty and It started to rain. On the radio, Demonstrate by JoJo came on and that’s my song! He stopped kissing me and drove because it was now a green light. I started singing the song:
Baby there’s alot of freak shxt running my mind
That. I . Can’t. Say.
But I know I can de-mon-strate
And I can let my body explain
I know I can de-mon-strate
Yeah, Imma make it simple and plain
You just need to come over
“Man your voice is so sexy. And you singing this song! You gone get hurt,” he said laughing.
“I try. Just kidding. I just love this song.”
“I see.”
We were finally at the restaurant. I was excited. Tre´got out of the car and came to my side to let me out. He had the umbrella over our heads to protect us from the ran. He held my hand to help me out of the car. He was such a gentleman. The valet took the keys and went to park the car.
As we walked in, there was a man standing at a podium with a reservation book in front of him. The place was pretty packed.
“Reservation for Melvin please,” Tre´told the man at the podium.
“Oh yes, here you are. Right this way.”
We followed the man up the stairs to a balcony where he sat us at a table right in front of a mural. It was absolutely beautiful. I never seen anything like it. Tre´pulled out my chair so I that I could sit then went and sat down himself
“Wow! It’s absolutely beautiful in here. Very classy.”
“Yeah I heard. I want nothing but the best for you. A queen deserves the finer things. Nothing but the best.”
I started to blush a little. “Oh. Im no queen.”
“Yes you are. You walk around with the world under your feet with no care in the world. You’re beautiful, intelligent, talent. The closest you can get to perfection.”
“Well behind all of that, there somewhat of a dark past. Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t change it for anything in the world. It’s me. I love me.”
“I don’t know what it was, but whatever it was, you came out a beautiful woman Hazel.”
I smiled. “Thank you Tre´.”
“Hi! Welcome to the Cheesecake Factory. My name is Kristen. I’ll be your server for the evening. Can I offer you anything to start your evening? Something to drink or appetizer?”
“Hi Kristen. Well what ever you want my dear, order what you wish,” Tre´greeted the waitress and then turned to me.
“Oh. Well i’ll have a glass of coke please,” I said smiling.
“And for me, I’ll have a glass of sprite please.”
“Okay. I’ll be right back with your drinks. I hope you enjoy your night.”
“No. Thank you,” said Tre´.
Tre´’s P.O.V.
I watched her face light up as she looked around.
“You like it?,” I asked her.
“Yeah. It’s beautiful Breathe taking.”
“Good. A Breathe taking place to keep a breathe taking woman. Im sorry I keep saying this but you’re just so beautiful. You make my heart flutter.”
She looked up from her lap and smiled at me. “Why, thank you. Good to hear it from someone.”
“Who would be blind or stupid enough to tell you otherwise?
“I mean, what kid wasn’t bullied when they were younger? It wasn’t that bad. Conditions at home were worse,” she looked down again, “ I mean life for me was ruff. But with darkness comes light. I got a beautiful little sister out of it. Im happy.”
“Wow.”
“Yeah.”
“Well, good to see such a beautiful butterfly sprouted from that tiny green caterpillar you used to be.”
She smiled at me but said nothing. I picked her head up and saw a tear fall from her eye.
“Why are you crying?,” I said wiping the tear from her check.
“Sorry. Just thinking about the past. Im fine really,” she said giving me a smile.
I got up and walk over to her, got on one knee, and grabbed her hand.
“Look at me. You’re with me now. I don’t ever want you to cry. I don’t want you to dwell in the past. Its not just you anymore. Its us. Focus on “us” and the future to come. I promise to make you the happiest woman on earth. And that’s a promise I vow to keep.”
Hazel’s P.O.V.
When he said that to me, I lit up. He said we were a “we” now. Is he serious? Im officially his girl! I couldn’t help but smile at him at that point. After he said that, get kissed me. I felt electricity roll down my spine. This was real. I can feel it.
