I Never Thought It'd Be You {JBLS}

Chapter 18

**IMPORTANT NOTE**

Hi everyone. I'm going to start making my chapters longer, like regular books, because we're already on chapter 18 and the story isn't even half way over. Most stories like this on wattpad are 25-30 chapters long, and like I said, we're already at 18 and we aren't even at the halfway point. I hope you don't mind the longer chapters. I bet you don't though because more reading for you. ;) But yeah. This story STILL may turn into a novella. :P Oh well, only time will tell. Now, enjoy this LONG chapter! :D

Justin and I finished our ice cream and we walked back out to the limo.  "Any place else you would like to go?" he asked me.

I thought about it for a minute.  "No, I think I'm good," I said with a smile.  This day has been great so far.

He looked at his watch.  "Surprise time," he said, loud enough so the driver could hear.

The limo started going and unlike the last two rides, this one was silent.  I wonder what Justin's thinking about.  It's simple to figure out what I'm thinking about.  I'm thinking about possible surprises Justin could have planned, of course.  There's so many things he could do, but which one could it be?  I know there's too many things going on in my mind right now.  I think I just need to calm down and forget about what the surprise could possibly be.  It's only making my mind ache.  But how can I not think about what it could be?  More and more questions continued to fill my head as the ride went on.  Suddenly, the limo stopped.

YES! I said to myself.

Both of us got out of the limo, and before us stood a tall building.  It looks like it's old, and it's not really eye catching.  I tilted my head and tried to imagine what Justin could've planned in a place like this.

"Don't let the exterior design fool you," Justin said with a chuckle once he saw me looking all confused.  "It's a really nice place," he continued as he pushed the doors open.

I looked around in awe.  "This is a beautiful lobby!" I exclaimed.  This looks like it's a hotel, and a fancy one.  Couldn't tell that from the outside.  I guess it proves that what's inside is more important and great than what's outside!

"Sadly, we have to take the stairs to get where we need to go," Justin said with a smile and a neutral expression on his face at the same time.

He took my hand and we started walking up the staircase.  I felt like the stairs would never end, but suddenly Justin opened a door.  "Surprise," he said with a smile.  "I hope you aren't afraid of heights," he added.

A cool breeze met my face, making me shiver in the slightest bit.  "Aw, Justin!" I was all I could manage to say as I looked around.  There was a semi-big picnic blanket sitting on the flat roof in front of us.  On the blanket was a basket with lit candles and flowers in the middle.  Rose petals were scattered around the outside of the blanket.  I felt my cheeks get warm.  "Oh, Justin, you shouldn't have," I said, my cheeks warmer than ever.

"Oh but I did," he said as he escorted me over to the blanket.

Still admiring the surroundings, I said, "I can't believe at one point in my life I thought you were a conceited jerk. You're anything but."

"And now ya love me," he replied with a "you know you do" expression.

I laughed and he began to open the picnic basket and take things out of it.  "For a picnic, this is fancy food," I said as I picked up a container of what looks like pot roast.
