Ethan's POV:

I could not wait to take Ashlee to my secret spot so I could get to know her better!

I had everything planned, we would talk, laugh & maybe even a kiss?

School was a blur- I just could not focus!

Ashlee's POV:

3...2...1- the bell rang, time to go meet up with Ethan.

I grabbed my packed lunch from my locker as I was heading towards my homeroom doors.

"Excuse me, Excuse me, Sorry!" Were my words as I raced towards the door hopefully awaiting Ethan.

Finally... I made it to the door with a minute to spare before the bell rang. Ethan was standing by the door just like he promised with a single red rose in his hand, & his lunch on the ground.

"Glad you could make it." He said. "Um.. here- here is a beautiful rose for an even more prettier girl." He began to blush while handing me the rose.

"Thank you so much Ethan! Wow, this is a gorgeous flower." I replied with a big & bright smile.

"Close your eyes, & take my hand- I will lead you to the place." He said.

"Okay" I replied with a smile.

We walked for a couple of minutes before he let me open my eyes.

"Here we are!"

I began to open my eyes...

"Wow! Ethan, this place is gorgeous!"

After a few moments of looking around, we sat down at a picnic table by a big oak tree.

I slowly began pulling my lunch out as he already began eating his sandwich.

"Ethan-" I began.. "Why chose me, when you could have any other girl in the WHOLE WORLD?!"

"Because-"

"Because what Ethan?!" I interrupted. "Sorry, I just want some answers."

"Answers to what?!" He exclaimed.

"Why are you doing this for me?"

"I really like you Ashlee..." 

"But, why me?"

"Ashlee"

He grabbed my hand on the table.

"You are beautiful!"

"Ethan! Stop! I don't need your pity party, okay!"

I proceeded to stand up until he caught me.

"Whoah, Ashlee- look at me."

His eyes were so pretty- almost made me believe him..

"Why do you think that this is a joke?" He said.

"Ethan.." I started putting my head down, & he put it close to his chest.

He pulled my chin up &  kissed me.

Omgosh, his lips were soft & warm- it made me forget what I was going to say.

"Now, won't you stay with me?" He asked.
