I have been preparing for this date all week long i want everything to be perfect, but most importantly to make Ruby forget her worries. She has been smiling at me all day long hoping that i would giving hint but my lips are sealed. 'You can't tell me where it will be?' She asked. 'Nope.' I replied. 'Not even the first letter of the place.' She kept holding on. 'No, you'll see this evening my darling.' i said teasingly. She let her head down. 'Damn.' She said and let out a big sigh. 'Why are you girls so curious.?' I asked. 'Just because i want to know.' She said. 'It is going to be...' I started her eyes widened. 'Fun.' I finished she gave me angry look. 'Oh come babe isn't it more fun when it's a surprise?' I said, she sighed. 'No, i don't like surprises.' She replied. 'You'll love this one i'm sure.' A said and i kissed her cheek. 'But i have to go to French class now.' I said and i started walking backwards and waved to her.
Me being the blind idiot i am some times i bumped into some one out. 'Watch out!' I hear a familiar voice say i quickly turned around and saw Sam. 'Riley?' My good friend i had known for almost 5 years, he had a very confused look on his face. Im sorry dude i wasn't paying attention.' I looked over at Ruby who couldn't stop laughing. 'No worries.' He said following now looking at what i was looking at. 'Cute girl.' He said i coughed. 'Well yeah is kind of mine.' I replied. 'So during the week but on not in the weekend could i borrow her?' He asked. 'No she is occupied the whole entire time.' I said feeling a little irritated. 'I thought so i mean a you're not just kind of dating someone.' He answered. 'Yeah i know, it's just that we didn't say we're officialy boyfriend and girlfriend.' I looked down and saw the time on my watch. 'Holy fuck i'm late for French class!' I said.
Ruby's POV
Riley ran off leaving the guy he was talking to alone he was looking at me with a smile and he waved i waved back a little uncomfortable because i didn't know who he was i guess a friend of Riley's. I had to go home alone today because he still had to work on his surprise date he still didn't spill anyting about the date. Thinking about that was definedly more interesting than my history class i was happy when the bell rang. I saw Riley who came up to me. 'I'll pick you up at 6.30 pm?' He asked. 'That means i only have two and half hours to prepare?' I asked. 'You don't have to prepare you are already gorgeous.' He replied which made me smile. 'But now i really have to go now.' He said he wanted walk away but i was holding on to his arm . 'Sure you don't want to tell me what is?' I asked. 'No.' He said smiling. 'Can you let go of my arm?' He asked. 'Maybe.' I said and slowly let go of his arm.
As soon as i got home i started fixing my hair, curling it, changing outfits like ten times. Nothing was good enough i want too look good for him anytime of the day, but this was special espicially because i didn't know where we were going to go so i had no clue what to wear. I got a text from Riley: 'You are going to love this x' It said making me even more curious godammit. When it was 6.30 i was nervousily waiting at the door waiting foor the doorbell to ring any minute, but that didn't happen, i checked my phone no texts, i checked the time it was 6.40 i was getting a bit concerend.
The doorbell rang i jumped and opened the door. Riley looked breathtaking he was was wearing suit my jaw dropped and my heart was almost beating out of my chest. In his hand he was holding a red rose. 'I am so sorry i am late, but everything had to be perfect and you deserve the best.' He said trying to catch his breath. 'Did you run.' I stutterd trying to take my eyes of him. 'A little.' He said causing him to laugh. 'You look stunning.' He said with a big smile on his face, i felt that my cheeks were getting red. 'Thank you, you don't look so bad yourself.' I replied. He reached out his hand for me. 'Milady.' He said. I put my hand in his and closed the door behind me.
'Where are we going?' I asked. 'You'll see.' He answered i looked up at him. 'Still not saying anything?' He shook his head. 'Nope.' After a good ten minutes we walked into the park i was kind of second guessing the thought of sitting in the park at this hour untill i saw all the candles Riley lit. 'Did you do this?' I asked surprised. 'Yes, well my sister helped and she kind off stayed here to make sure none of these trees would catch on fire.' I laughed his sister was standing on the blanket they had laid out on the grass she smiled at me. 'Have a good evening you two.' She said she left the park. 'You do not want to know what i to do to get permission to do all of this.' He said. 'I guess it was a lot of paper work.' I answered. 'Correct, but where here to have fun.'

She smiled at me making me smile too. 'Why don't we sit down?' I asked. 'Good.' We both sat down on the blanket the candles around us created a great vibe. This was perfect to get her mind off of things. 'I...um prepared some food for us.' I said. 'Oh really?' She looked surprised. 'And i got your favorite dessert.' I said with a grin. 'No...' She said in disbelief. 'Oh yes i do.' I got grabbed the box and showed. 'You are fucking amazing.' She said a kissed me unexpectedly.
Music was playing softly as we had laid down to watch the stars her head was resting on my chest. 'It feels like have gained a best friend and a...' She said but stopped for a second. 'Boyfriend, i mean i'm not quite sure what we are.' I smiled because she said boyfriend. 'Well, i know it would be rather fast to be girlfriend and boyfriend but i feel like i have such a strong connection with you in such a short time.' She explained. 'I exactly know what you mean and i would love to be your official boyfriend one day.' She looked up at me. 'One day?' She asked surprised tone. 'Yeah? I know you don't want to get too attatched.' I replied. 'Riley, honestly i'm already too deep in love with you.' She said last part more quietly. 'Wait what.' I asked wanting to hear that last part again. 'I love you.' she whispered. I looked down at her and kissed the top of her head. 'I love you too.' I whispered back.
