Forget Them, He Said

The Surprise

Sutton wakes up, taking in the smell of bacon and eggs. She throws the covers off her, running to her closet.

Sutton picks out a pair of light-washed skinny jeans and a graphic tee. She throws on her black Vans and goes into her bathroom.

She brushes her hair, indecisive on what to do with her hair. She ends up putting it in a high pony and grabs a jacket as she heads downstairs.

The sight in front of her is normal.
The living room couches unsat on. Looking as if no one had been in the living room in a long time.

Sutton throws her jacket on one of the couches and walks into the dining room.

"Hey," Jon greets her, his eyes beaming with newfound joy.

"Hey," she smiles back and sits down beside him.

"Here you go, just in time," Petunia teases Sutton, setting plates in front of everyone.

"How'd you sleep, dears?" Cordelia asks the both of them.

"Good," Sutton answers first, then looks at Jon.

"Good," he nodded.

Everyone ate in silence.

"Thank you, Petunia," Sutton said as Petunia picked up her empty plate.
Cordelia left the room, helping Petunia with the dishes.

"So, where are we going?" Sutton turned in her chair to face Jon.

"It's a surprise," he smiled, and Sutton playfully punched him in the arm.

"Okay, ready?" Cordelia asks, coming back into the room.

Sutton and Jon nodded, getting up. They headed for the front door, and Cordelia followed, car keys in hand.
...
"Close your eyes," Jon instructed Sutton in the car. It had been almost an hour drive.

"Why?" Sutton asked, unsure. But she did as he said.

The car stopped and they got out of the car, Sutton with the assistance of Cordelia. She made sure Sutton was facing away from the building.

Cordelia handed Jon some money and got back in the car. Jon slipped his hands over Sutton's eyes as he guided her inside.

He paid and they walked into the start of a maze. Sutton smelled lemon, assuming it was because of what they used to clean the floors.

"Open," Jon takes his hands away from her eyes.

She gasps as she takes in the view. Video game themed props are in every corner. YouTuber wax sculptures stand, leading them through the maze.
Sutton grabs Jon's hand excitedly, and pulls him along behind her. The butterflies return to his stomach.
She stops at a figurine of Twaimz, a llama wallpaper accenting the wax. She poses and Jon takes a picture.
She brings out her phone, ready to vlog.

"Hello, forget intros, this is a vlog... of me at a YouTube maze! With the one and only Jon Klaasen!" She gets Jon in the frame, smiling widely into her phone's camera.

They run around, vlogging, taking pictures, and laughing at the wax sculptures of the many known youtubers.

Jon runs ahead as Sutton vlogs about being here with the famous Miranda Sings... wax sculpture.

She walks on, wondering where he had gone. She walks into a part of the maze based on Mario. A few green tubes stick out of the ground. She decides to vlog this too. After she turns on her camera, she starts talking about the amazing detail in the maze. In the green tube behind her, someone jumps out, making Sutton scream.

"Jon!" Sutton laughs, after realizing it was him.

"I'm so glad you got that on camera," Jon laughs, sitting in the tube.

They laugh for awhile. Then Jon jumps out and grabs Sutton hand, leading her farther into the maze.

They come upon a sign marked "YouTube Sensations". Jon and Sutton meander through the halls, looking at the wax figurines.

Sutton stops, seeing herself as wax.
"Well, look at that," Jon says, still holding Sutton's hand.

She look's at the name tag, "SuttonJay88", it read.

She smiled at Jon. She engulfed him in a hug, knowing this was the real reason he had brought her here.

They walked out, after the embrace, finishing the maze.

Cordelia picked them up and took them home.

Sutton and Jon hadn't realized they'd spent the whole day at the maze.

After dinner, Jon and Sutton played in the game room, watching movies.

"So, did you have fun today?" Jon asks from his couch.

"Yes," Sutton replies from her recliner.
Jon smiles at her, glad she had fun, glad he had already started helping her forget them.

A/N: Sorry for the filler... but yeah.
