Josh's P.O.V.
I knock on my dad's library room door.
"Come in" he says.
I enter. He turns around from his desk and gives me a small grin. I sit across from him.
"Dad, I want to take Collins somewhere for our anniversary." I sigh. "But...I don't know where to take her."
He puts down his book and sits up putting his elbow on knees and holding his hands together. "And...You came here to?"
I frown. I hate asking him for help. "Dad, I need your help."
He smiles. "Well, what did you have in mind?"
"I don't know. The amusement park or something. Dinner maybe?"
"Amusement park? Really Josh?"
"I don't know" I stay slouching in my chair.
"What about the beach. You want it to be romantic. It's your anniversary."
I sit up. "The beach. That's perfect. The sunset and everything. She'll love it." I jump out my seat and head to the door. "Thanks dad" I say.
I head to the computer. What are some nice beaches in Philly? I scroll down the screen.
Alantic City? No. Ocean City. No. Umm. Cape May? That may be good. It's in New Jersey. We can drive. I type: Cape May Hotels in Google. There are tons.
The Five Star is...Grand Hotel Cape May. This is Perfect.
I book us the suite. I've been saving since me and Collins got together. Though I didn't know where I wanted to go yet, I knew it would be expensive. I smile.
Collins is going to love this. This Friday will be the best anniversary ever.

Collins P.O.V.
I smile at Josh text.
Josh: Our anniversary is coming up. Of course I have something planned for my baby. I love you Collins, I always will. :)
God. I love him.
I walk downstairs to see my dad sitting on the couch watching tv. He locks up at me and frowns. He's been acting differently after our little "incident" last week. He doesn't even talk to me like that anymore. I guess..I'm a little hurt. I did apologize,... which is rare for me.
I sit on the couch next to him, texting Erica. I look at him from the side. He just keeps watching tv.
"You know dad, my anniversary is in 2 days"
He looks at me. "I know"
I look down. "Why are you acting like this? Not talking to me?"
"I just said, I know"
"Whatever" I say throwing my phone on the couch and walking to my room. I slam the door shut.
What the heel does he want me to do? Beg on my knees? Well I m not doing that!
My room door opens and my dad walks in and sits on my bed. He brushes my hair out of my face.
"Are you still mad?" I say sitting up.
"No"
"Hmmm."
"Collins, I WAS mad. But not anymore. I felt more disrespected."
"I said I was sorry! What else can I do"
"Change"
"I'm going to try okay? That's all, I can say. I'm not making any promises."
He smiles. "So again, do you know what Josh is planning?"
"No. It's a surprise"
"What did you get him?"
"Its a surprise"
"Hmmm. I know"
"What?"
"I'll figure out"
"I got him two things"
"Nice. So do you know when your going on this "surprise" gift?"
"Going? Who said he was taking me somewhere?"
"Guys always take you somewhere, sweetie, so don't forget to pack"
He gets up and heads for the door. "And remember. No Sex"
I smile.
He closed the door.
I wonder where Josh may take me. If he does take me anywhere. He's every romantic. I wonder though, what if he doesn't like my gifts. He'll probably say he does. I'm so happy.
I text Josh back.
Me:I love you.
Josh: I love you too.
Me: You make me happy.
Josh: :) You make me happy to Collins. I love everything about you. Not only your beauty. But your personality. You smarts. Everything. And that. That makes me happy.
I'm so so happy. Even if Josh doesn't take me anywhere. I still love him. I really love him and the best part about it is that I'll be there with him. He loves me and I know it.Our bond is unbreakable. Our love is rare but real. And one thing I know is that Josh, my sweet Josh, is very rare also.
