I woke up at ruffly about ten o'clock. His arms were still around me, When he realised I was awake he kissed my neck briefly and sat up.
"I have a surprise for you," He spoke in his usual morning voice,
"What is it?" I asked,
"Well if I told you, it would be a surprise," He replied smugly,
"You have to get dressed before we go though," He said hastily,
"Ok," I replied as a smile appeared on my face and he returned a cute grin.
I stood up and wandered into the bathroom. I could feel him looking at me so I left the door open. I dipped my brush into my foundation and wiped it on my face, I continued my morning routine. I pulled my jeans and shirt on and added my perfume and body spray. I felt some familiar hands grab my waist and pick my up bridal style I giggled and kissed him quickly. He carried me outside and placed me in his car I saw a look of pride on his face. We were driving for about twenty minutes suddenly, the car came to a halt and he jumped out and walked around the side of the car and placed his hands in the similar spot on my hips and lifted me out.
We were in large
spread-out area surrounded by trees, he placed a picnic blanket on the cold grass and he retreated to the boot of his car and came back with his backpack and picnic basket full of food. I giggled as I opened the box to find; tow squashed BLT sandwiches, a packet of prawn cocktail and bbq crisps, two bottles of Diet Coke and a box of cigarettes with an elastic band holding a lighter against it.
I looked up at him after discovering the cigarettes, a look of anger, confusion but it was mostly...disappointment.
"I thought you were trying to quit," I said,
His face went from excitement to embarrassment.
"I'm sorry," he said eventually, "I really did try though," he continued, "in fact..."
He said as he stood up, leaned over picked up the box ,lighter still attached, and threw them into a near by tree.
Sat down ,with a look of pride on his face, he leaned in and kissed me, I pulled away and confusion took over his face,
"What's wrong?" He asked,
"Promise me you'll quit," I said purposely showing the urgency in my voice,
"I promise," He said without hesitation, "I love you,"
"I love you to,"

We ate the food quickly and stood up and put his backpack on. He leaned for my hand and grasped it. My fingers fell perfectly into his as they intertwined.
We wondered in to a forest and my free hand brushed against the textured wood. I began to hear the sound of running water.
He pulled me in and we cuddled for a moment, I could hear his heartbeat echoing loudly, my head was placed gently on his chest.
I looked up and realised that he was looking at me I stood up on my tip toes and kissed him softly for a moment. He then proceeded to hold my hand again and pulled me along, I realised that I had no idea where we were or where we were going and knowing Andy, he probably didn't ether. But then I started to see the sun start to set and the purples, reds and a pinks filled the sky.
We stopped by the cause of the running water sounds, it was a large stream connected to a water fall on one side and an unseeable ending way in the distance.
We continued to trek up the side of the waterfall, with Andy lifting me at every 'treacherous' rock that we came across.
We eventually reached the very highest point of the waterfall, he sat down and I sat on his knee with my arms placed around his neck.
I could see the colours of the sky in his eyes as I gazed. A few moments passed of pure silence, but then he slowly and gently moved me off him and placed me on the floor,
"I'll be back in one second," he spoke reassuringly,
"Ok," I answered,
He opened his backpack and took out; a blanket, three pillows and a travel phone charger.
I giggled when I saw the charger, knowing full well who the charger was for as Andy could never go anywhere or do anything without his phone.
He placed the blanket on the floor by a tree and placed the pillows against it and leaned on them then patted the ground next to him in indication of me sitting down next to him so I did.
He then lifted my legs and placed them on his own.
I returned my head to the usual position on his shoulder and placed his head upon mine gently, recreating the same position we did in at the cinema. The night went past in a collection of moments and long kisses.
