After I texted Calum back I got out of bed and I started to get ready for my day. I washed my face and brushed my teeth as usual. Then I walked to my closet and I started to pick out my outfit. I decided to wear a grey reckless youth shirt, baby blue skinny jeans, and white flats. I decided to put my hair in a high ponytail and pull out some strands. For my makeup, I did a black and white smoky eye, liquid eyeliner, mascara, and a nude lipstick from M.A.C. I walked downstairs to go got coffee before Calum got here. "Hey, momma. I'm gonna go get coffee real quick." I tell her as I lean on the counter in the kitchen. "You look lovely....all for coffee?" she asked eyeing me up and down. "Thank you momma bear and I kinda have a date......" I trailed off on my sentence, knowing that she would be excited because I haven't been on a date in almost two years.

"With who?!" she asks with a concerned look sprawled on her face. "Just a guy from school, mom." "Okay, Scar, well have fun. I love you. Be safe!!!" she yelled at me as I walked out the door. Once in my car I immediately plugged my phone into the aux cord and i put on Living Louder by The Cab. I decided to go through the drive through instead of getting down, since i didn't want to be late. I ordered my usual drink and i paid the cashier, then i went back home to wait for Cal. About 30 minutes later i hear a knock on my door. I get off my couch and walk over to the door and i open it to see Calum. Boy did he look good. He was wearing a sleeveless 'obey' shirt, and black skinny jeans. "Hello, beautiful." he says as he snaps me out of my little trance. "H-Hi Cal.." i greet him nervously.

"You ready to go?" he asks me. "Yeah, just let me lock up." i grab my keys to my house and i lock the door behind me as i meet Calum outside. We walked over to the car and he opened the car door for me. The car ride was silent. Not an awkward silence, but a very relaxing silence. "You can hook up what ever song you want." he says breaking the silence. "I don't know what kind of music you like." he says while handing me an aux cord. I play Hallelujah by Panic! At The Disco. "Nice choice." he chuckles. "I know.." i smirk. In the middle of the song we turned down a hidden dirt road behind the woods. A little ways down we parked in front of an abandoned lake.

"What's this?" i ask him as he pulls a blanket out of the trunk and lays it on the ground. "Just a place i like to clear my mind." he smile and sits on the blanket. "Its beautiful." I tell him as i sit next to him. "Just like you." he smirks at me. "That was so cheesy, that i can almost smell it." i tease him. "I'm trying to be nice, Scarlette!" he laughs at me. "I know..." i look towards the lake still smiling. Calum digs around for something inside of his book-bag as i lay back on the blanket. "Want some?" Calum asks. I look up and i notice that he is holding 2 cups and some Van Gogh Blue Vodka. "Sure." i say as he pours about 30% of vodka in the cup and the rest sprite. He hands me the cup and i gladly accept it.

About 3 cups later i was feeling amazing. The sun was starting to set and it was just amazing over the lake. "This is so gorgeous, Cal...." i sigh. "I know. This is the main thing i wanted you to see." he says looking at me. I look at my lap and a smile starts to spread on my face. "C-can i kiss y-you?" Calum asks me and i whip my head up to look at him. I nod slightly and he starts to lean in. I close my eyes and i feel his soft lips on mine. Our lips moved perfectly together. Soon he pulled away leaving my lips cold. I already missed his lips on mine. I look down at my lap and i start to blush.  "Hey." Calum says as he puts his finger under my chin and lifts it up. "What's wrong?" he asks. "Was it bad?" he had a worried look plastered on his face. "No! It was perfect. You're perfect..." i said pecking his lips once more.

He then stood up and grabbed my hand to pull me up. I helped him pack everything up and put it in the car. We were both pretty sober so we got in the car and he started to drive me home. Calum intertwines our fingers together and i smile. When we arrive to my house, Cal walks me to my doorstep. "Thank you for tonight. It was great." i say looking up at him. "No, thank you for coming with me..." he flashes a big smile at me and i feel electricity shoot through my body. "Goodnight, Scarlette." he says as he bends down and kisses my cheek. "N'ight Cal.." i tell him as i walk into my house.

'Well tonight was amazing' i thought to myself.
