To: JL

Haha that rhymes and yeah sounds great.

From: JL

See you then

Ok so it's 5:30 now so I have 2 and a half hours till he picks me up. I guess I should start to get ready. I walk into my bathroom and turn the water on for a shower. I take my clothes off and step into the shower. I love the hot water. Its so relaxing.

I wonder what I should wear. Well knowing John Luke he won't go anywhere fancy so I'll go with causal. I'm looking through my closet and I see this amazing yellow dress. Its so cute. It would look so good with my sandals and curly hair. OMG I'll look amazing. Wow I sound a little conceited so I guess I should stop thinking how good I'll look. I put the dress on and start to curl my brown wavy hair. My hair is kinda curly naturally but the curls never turn out how I want them to so I curl it myself. I add a little makeup put on my shoes and grab my bag. By the time I was done it was 7:50. Hmmm what shouls I do for 10 minutes. I guess I'll watch some tv.

I heard knocking on the door and I shoot up from the couch turn the tv off and open the door.

"Hey. Ready?" JL said

"Yep lets go" and we walked to his truck and he opened the door for me.

"So where are we going" I wondered

"Can't tell you. Surprise"

"Please John Luke please tell me I hate surprises"

"Nope ain't gonna tell ya"

"Fine" I said. John Luke looks good tonight. Well he always does but maybe be looks a littke better if that's even possible. I hope we go to like a little restaurant. I mean I didn't dress for fancy.

"Almost there" John Luke told me as he turned right. Good we're almost there. Should I be this nervous. Come on my hands are sweating. He makes another turn and he took it so sharp that I smacked the window.

"Are you okay" he asked concerned

"Yeah, fine"

"Good I don't need you injured for our date. We're here" he got out and opened my door for me. I told him my thanks and then we started walking towards a field.

"You didn't do this for me did you" I asked

"This is all for you" be said while motioning around him with his arms. There were candles everywhere. Even in the trees. Flowers were scattered all around the blanket we were going to sit on and there was music playing. Country to be exact.

"Let's sit down" JL said as he led me to the blanket. When we sat down he got out a picnic basket and he took out 2 sandwiches, 2 water bottles, and 2 apples.

"Hope you like tuna" he said

"Yeah they're good" Yeah I don't like tuna a lot but hey its the first date and I will be nice. I can't believe he brought me here. It's just the first date, I didn't think he would go all out but hey now I know not to underestimate him. He's so sweet and I hope things work out between us because I really like him. I hope that he really likes me too.

"Come here" JL said as he stood up and put his hand out so I took it and he helped me up.

"What are we doing" I asked

"Dancing" he turned on a slow song and he put his hands around my waist and mine found they're way to his neck. We left space between us but not like arms length. We moved slow and in sync with each other. When the song was over we sat down again.

"How are you ever going to out do this" I asked

"What do you mean" he asked

"Well I've always heard that the first date is the best but the rest always happen to get a luttle bit better"

"Well you'll just have to wait and see now won't you"

"Yeah but this is pretty amazing it must've taken you hours to do this"

"Molly I'd do anything to make you smile because I absolutely love it" he said

"Thanks" I said and I'm pretty sure I'm blushing. Stupid cheek blood vessels.

"I guess we should get going its getting late" he said

"Yeah what time even is it"

"11" he said

"Your joking we didn't spend 3 hours here"

"Molly I think we did"

"It was so much fun you know that right"

"Yeah it was pretty fun" he said. We made it to the truck and he opened the door and then walked over to his side and got in. We drove home in silence. It wasn't awkward it was reall comfortable actually.

"I hope you did have fun" he said when he opened my door

"I told you like a thousand times I had a blast"

"Okay just checking if you wanted to go out again"

"Umm let me think about it.... No" I joked. He looked heartbroken. I'm starting to feel bad.

"I'm just kidding I would absolutely love to go ou t again with you. Did you really think I would've said no. I just told you that I had so much fun" I told him

"I know but I really like you and when you said that I didn't know if you wanted to be just friends or more" he said

"John Luke I really like you. Like once I saw you I wanted to get to know you. I want to be more than friends" I said

"Well would you like to be my girlfriend" he said with a smile

"YES I would love to" I said jumping and hugged him.

"Good well girlfriend I guess I should let you go inside before your dad threatens me with his gun" he said

"What are you talking about"

"Molly he's sitting on the front porch with a gun in his hands"

"Oh no he isn't" I said snapping my fingers to add dramatic effect

"DADDY GET BACK INSIDE. IT'S MY LIFE NOT YOURS" I yelled to my dad

"WELL IM JUST MAKING SURE THAT IDIOT ISN'T GOING TO HURT YOU" with that he walked inside.

"Oh he ain't getting away with that" I said

"Its fine he doesn't mean it" he said

"Are you sure because I'm pretty sure my mom is already yelling at him for me"

"Yeah all dads are like that for their daughters"

"Ok well I guess I should get going then" I said

"Bye Molly maybe we could hang out tomorrow" he said as he hugged me

"Yeah bye John Luke" and with that I started to walk up my path to the door.

A/N

I'm sorry I haven't updated in forever but when @gabattack50 kept commenting she motivated me to continue. Because personally I thought this book was horrible, so thank you. And yes his arm is still broken. You can dance with a broken arm. Sorry if it isnt long. I try but when your writing it seems much shorter then when your reading.
