Alex's P.O.V.:
I woke up and saw Triston wasn't here anymore, it was 2:45 pm and I saw Triston sent me me a Snapchat. I opened it and it was a picture of my sleeping, it said "Date tonight at 6, be ready it's a suprise." I got up and took a shower and got ready. I didn't know where we were going so I just threw something cute on but not too fancy. I did make my makeup that made gave a natural, but took me a really long time to do since I was putting eyeliner on. By the time I finished it was 5:30 so I went to see what the girls thought. They were all on the couch on their phones, they looked up and said said I looked gorgeous, I didn't have someone who knew Triston well at the house since they all left so I had to go with it.
Triston finally arrived and when he saw me his jaw dropped. I blushed a little bit (or maybe a lot) and I'm pretty sure he could tell. I walked up to him, hugged and kissed him, I smelled his cologne as we hugged and I didn't want to let go. He asked if I was ready to go and I said yes.
*At dinner*
We were at a restaurant that wasn't too fancy and expensive but was good for a first date. We got to know each other and found out we had a lot in common. We both got bullied in the past (and still do) so we're both against it and want to make the world a better place, we both like red, and our favorite thing to do is broadcast (those are only some). He asked how many boyfriends I've had and I told him he was my first one, "So you're telling me that for 18 years you Alexis Marie Jones, have been single until now?" I nodded a little embarrassed, "It's okay, don't feel embarrassed I just can't believe someone as cute as you was single before we dated." I smiled a little and Triston noticed something, "Hey, I just noticed that ever since we met that this is the first time you wore a short sleeve shirt and shorts." I looked at my outfit and noticed he was right. I quickly tucked my arms under the table and said "Yeah" as I giggled a little. Our food came and Triston hope you like the next suprise.
*After dinner*
Triston's P.O.V.:
I drove Alex to a little peaceful spot, I made her cover her eyes the entire ride and made sure she didn't peek. As I drove I was still wondering my she tucked her arms under the table, I had a bad feeling when I found out I wasn't gong to like it. I got her out of the car and told her to uncover her eyes. It was a small part in near the woods. It had a clear view of the stars and candles were lit around the place (I texted Austin before we left to get it ready), we had a little cover for us to lay down and drink. She looked so happy, I was glad she liked it. She turned to me and hugged me, "Triston, this is so cute, you didn't have to do this." She said as she hugged me, she didn't understand that I truly liked her, I think I'm in love with her? "You're beyond special to me, you deserve it." We went to go lay down on the cover and drank some champagne. As we talked I looked at her legs and saw some cuts, I froze for a minute and thought, "Does she self-harm? No, she probably could have fell or something." "Um Alex," I managed to get out, "What are those cuts on your legs? And on your arms?"
Alex's P.O.V.:
I knew this was a bad idea, I quickly pulled my shorts down a little and cover my arms to where he couldn't see them, "Nothing." He grabbed my arms and saw all of my cuts, he wouldn't stop staring at them, I think he was even crying. He looked back up at me with his eyes almost fully red, "Why did you do this?" I pulled back,"You already know why..." I could feel my eyes tearing up and feeling embarrassed, "Look Alex, I'm not going to rant to you about this, but please promised me you won't cut again, I don't want to take a risk of losing you." he said looking at me dead in the eyes. I promised that I wouldn't and after that we felt like going home.
*Triston's house*
I decided to stay at Triston's house that night so we could be alone for once. We both changed into some of his sweatpants and I got a t-shirt from him, we went to his room and cuddle a little bit until Triston asked me, "Can we do it?" I had absolutely no words for that, I knew I truly liked him and so did he. I shook my head "Yes".
