*one week later*
  This is the third week that me and Andy have been at England. Today, we are going out on a picnic at a local park. Andy thought that it was a pretty day, and that it would be a good day. So here we are making sandwiches and packing them and bags of chips and packs of cookies into a picnic basket. It is now two in the evening. Me and Andy had stayed up late watching our new obsession, American Horror Story, so we didn't wake up until eleven. That's when we got started on all of the stuff for the picnic. We hadn't even changed out of pajamas. We soon got finished and Andy closed up the basket and folded the blanket and put it ontop.
    "Well, now all that's left is to change and head to the park."
He says.
  We walked to the bedroom and I grabbed a royal blue crop top with a silver anchor in it, a pair of black skinny jeans, and I decided to wear my black converse. I went to the bathroom and quickly got changed. I then added a little bit of makeup to my tanned skin. I then fluffed my curly hair. I walked out and Andy was dressed in black skinny jeans and a white t-shirt. He smiles.
    "Ready?"
He asks.
    "Yeah."
I say.
  Andy grabs the basket while I grab the blanket. We walk out to the car and Andy puts the basket and blanket into the trunk. We then climb into the car. Andy drives to the park. We get the stuff out and hold hands as we walk to a shady area in the park. We get the blanket and everything set out. Andy pulls out his phone.
    "Take a picture with me."
He says.
  I sigh.
    "Why?"
I whine.
    "Because you are my girlfriend and we have document this moment."
He says.
    "Fine."
I say, with a sigh.
    "Thank you."
He says.
  I lean into him and he turns the camera to face us. He clicks a picture of the two of us and types something. He hands his phone to me for me to read it.
    'Having a picnic in the park with this one. Vacation is going amazing! I love you so much, my Angel. @McKinleyRoseofficial'
  I smile and click post. He smiles and leans down and pecks my lips.
    "I love you."
He whispers.
    "I love you too."
I whisper back.
  We then take the stuff from the basket and start eating. I leaned against Andy as I watched all of the kids running around and playing. I smiled as a little boy helped up a little girl who had fallen.
    "See, I wish we had more guys out there that would help a girl up then they fall."
I say.
  Andy chuckles.
    "Yeah, you have that right. When we have kids, we are raising them right. We aren't going to have them bullying others and picking fights. I mean, yes they will know how to protect themselves, but I don't want them hurting others for no reason."
He says.
    "Yeah, that's a really good point. I mean, I know how to fight but I don't want them to get into fights for no reason as well. I mean, if they are protecting themselves or their best friend or girlfriend or boyfriend or something like that I don't care. I just don't want them to get into fights for careless reasons."
I say.
    "Yeah, I mean totally understandable."
He says, as we sipped our cokes.
  We had finished eating a while ago, and now are simply enjoying each other's company. My head was rested comfortably against Andy's shoulder as his head was rested on mine.
    "You know, I'm glad that you talked me into this vocation. It really has gotten some stress off of my shoulders."
I say.
    "Yeah, I'm glad that we took this vacation too Angel. It's just when we head home, how are we going to work everything out?"
He asks.
    "I don't know Andy. We'll figure something out."
I say.
    "Well, maybe you could move in with me."
He says.
  I gasp. He had just took the next step in the relationship by asking me to move in with him.
    "Umm... yeah sure that sounds amazing, but we have to visit Georgia. I can't handle being away from family that long without seeing them. I'll keep my house so that we'll have somewhere to stay when we go and we don't have to stay with Brantley or Aunt Becky."
I say.
  He smiles and kisses my temple.
    "That sounds amazing. I mean we have to go back and see our godchild every once in a while don't we?"
He says.
  I smile when he says that.
    "Yeah, we have to go back and see that little munchkin."
I say.
  He chuckles as we watch all of the kids playing around with each other on the playground. We then just sat there enjoying each other's company. The sun soon starts setting and me and Andy start packing up the picnic.
    "Do you want to stop down at the diner and get some dinner?"
Andy asks.
    "Sure."
I say.
  We head back to the car and put the basket and stuff into the back. We then climb into the car. Andy drives down to the little diner that is a few minutes away from the cabin. We walk inside and sit down at a booth. A lady with curly hair walks over.
    "What can I get for you?"
She asks.
  Me and Andy order and she writes it down on her notepad.
    "I'll be right over with your order."
She says.
  She brought us our order and we immediately started eating. Once we were finished, Andy pays and we walk back out to the car. I notice that it is nine at night. I let out a yawn. Andy chuckles and shakes his head. We pull into the cabin. We walk inside and I pull my shoes off.
    "Do you want to watch Netflix some before we go to sleep?"
He asks.
  I chuckle.
    "Sure, why not?"
I say.
  He logs into his Netflix and hooks it to the tv again. He once again chooses American Horror Story. We watch a couple of episodes before I am almost completely alseep. Andy chuckles and shakes his head.
    "We better get you off to bed."
He says.
    "Okay."
I mumbled.
  We walked to the bedroom after Andy logged out of Netflix. We climbed into bed and Andy pulled the blankets over us before clicking off the beside lamp. I chuckled into his chest and fell asleep listening to his steady heartbeat.
