Faith POV: "So, where would you like to go eat?" Rick asked me. "Hm, I don't care. Wherever you wanna go." "Uh uh, you get to choose this time." "How about chinese food?" "Sounds good to me." He said. After we ate Rick said he had a surprise for me. We got into the car and he started driving. "Where are we going?" I asked. "You'll see." "Come on honey, just tell me please!" "You are the most impatient person ever!" He said with a laugh. "I know I know." I said. He reached over and held my hand. About 15 minutes later we pulled into a little park right outside of town. Before we got out Rick reached into the back seat and pulled out a little bag. "Is that for me?" I asked. "Mhm, but you can't have it just yet." "Ugh, ok." I sighed. We both got out and he took me by the hand and led men to one of the park benches. "Do you remember this sopt?" He asked. It took me a second, but then it came to me. "Oh yeah! This is where we first met!" "Mhm, it sure is. You were sitting right here on this bench reading a book and I was right over there tossing around a football with my friends. Once I caught a glimpse of you all I could do was stare. After I kept missing the ball, my friends forced me to come over here and talk to you. At first I didn't want to because I knew you were way out of my league, but I'm so glad I did." He said. A huge smile came across my face. "I love that story." "Me too...Alright, are you ready to see what's in the bag?" "Duh!" I said then he handed me the bag and it took me about a half a second to rip it open and reach for what was inside.
