2 and a half weeks later

Ethan

"Where are you taking me?" Andi asked.

"You'll see," I grinned. "Don't take that blindfold off, we're almost there."

About five minutes later, we arrived at our destination.

I was so nervous and excited at the same time, I couldn't breathe.

"Alright, stay put, I'm gonna help you out of the car."

She nodded.

I got out of the car and walked to the passenger side, and opened the door to help her out.

"Alright careful," I said. "Just a few steps."

I led her and made sure she stopped right in the middle.

"Okay, that's good, sweetheart," I said. "You ready?"

She chuckled. "Oh yeah. Get them off me now!" She said impatiently.

I chuckled and took her blind fold off.

Her face registered complete surprise. "Oh my god," she breathe. "Ethan..."

"I remember you told me that you've always wanted to share and teach music to others, so what better way to do that, than to have your own school of music," I said with a smile. "I figured..." I stopped in horror. "Why are you crying?"

She shook her head and laughed. "Nothing. I just can't believe you remember that..."

"Babe, I remember everything about you," I said.

She turned towards me and threw herself at me in a tight embrace.

"Happy tears right?" I asked. 

She nodded against me.

"Come on, let's go inside and take a look," I said.

"Okay."

"Now, if you want to change anything then we can," I said.

"Ethan what are you talking about. This is perfect. It's more than I have ever imagined. You captured all the things that I..." She stopped.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"You really do love me..." She murmured.

I chuckled. "Yeah, sweetheart, I really do. But that's what you got from looking around this place?"

She shook hear head. "No it's just... You know me so well and you've captured that in every corner of this room. It was as if you read my mind. I... It's just... I love you so much," she said tearfully.

"I love you too, and I'm glad that this is exactly how you imagined it would be."

"Now come, I've got one more place to take you," I said.

"More surprise?" She asked.

"Yup, now come on."

"Where are we going?" She asked.

I shook my head. "All I'm saying is try to get comfortable, it'll be quite a drive before we get to where I'm taking you."

"Okay. Can I sleep?" She asked.

I chuckled. That's what I want, sweetheart. "Absolutely."

"Okay," she yawned.

I intertwined our fingers and brought her hand up for a kiss.

She sighed with a smile as she settled for a nap.
