Our Love Story

Chapter 14

Lilac's POV

"I still can't believe you made it passed me and onto the boat with out me seeing you." Mitch said as we climbed into bed.

"You're just jealous because you can't make it past me!" I said curling up beside him.

"No I'm not!"

"Yes you are!"

"Whatever you say, now go to sleep." He laughed

"Fine." I replied falling asleep.

"Morning beutiful." Mitch whispers in my ear.

"Morning." I said smiling.

"You go back to sleep, I'm going to get ready."

"No I'm going to go get ready!" I said flinging off the covers.

"Fine we both will."

I shoo him out of the room so I could pick out my clothes and get ready. I grabbed my knee length blue and purple dress and blue converse. I ran to the bathroom to go take a shower and do my hair. I blew my hair dry until it was damp, then I curled it. I put on purple eyeliner, pale pink lipstick, and put on a light layer of gold eye shadow. I got dressed and ran back into our room. He knocked on the door.

"What?" I asked

"Wait at the top of the stairs for me babe ok?"

"Ok."

I put on my shoes and walk out of our room, slowly, to make it more dramatic. I got to the top of the stairs. I looked down the stairs where I found Mitch in his checkered black and red shirt, dark jeans and his red converse. I slowly walk down the stairs, I feel like royalty. When I reach the 3rd to last step Mitch holds out his hand and says,

"Come with me."

So I grab his hand and do what he says. He leads me out back. Above the pool is a table set for two. He swoops me off my feet and carries me up the stairs above the pool.

"You didn't have to do this Mitch." I said in 'aw'

"Yes I did," he replied " It's our anniversary, I want to make you feel special, since we never spend our anniversary together."

"We do!" I said "but not on the actual date."

"Exactly why I want to make you feel special."

"Fine."

He ran inside to get our food, at least that's what I thought. When he came out he wasn't holding food. He ran up the stairs and sat down. Then out of no where came Adam, holding a tray of food. He walked up the stairs and up to the table.

"Here is you breakfast. Lilac here's yours and Mitch here is yours!"

"Mitch why did you do this?" I asked laughing.

"Shhh" He whispered.

All the guys and Jenny came outside and ran up to the table and sang,

"Happy anniversary Mitch and Lilac! Happy anniversary to you!!!"

I just sat there and giggled and so was Mitch. Then everyone ran back inside. After we ate the delicious waffles Mitch made himself he stood up and walked over to me. He grabbed my hand and pulled me out of my chair. We intertwined our fingers and walked down the stairs.

"I have a suprise, but we need to drive there."

"Where are we going?"

"It's a suprise! I can't tell you!"

We walked around the house and into the drive way where my car sat.

"We're taking your car, but I'm driving."

"I figured that." I said smiling.

He opened the door and when I got in he shut it. He ran around to the other side, hopped in and started the car up. We drove a little while down town. Then he stopped at an animal shelter.

"What are we doing here?" I asked anxiously.

"I'm getting you a dog. But you get to pick him out."

"Oh my god I love you so much! I've always wanted a dog even since I moved into the apartment!" I unbuckled my seatbelt and gave him a big hug.

We walked inside, walls filled with all different kinds of pets.

"Go look around, tell me when you find the one you like."

"Ok babe!" I said giving him a kiss on the cheek.

I looked at all the dogs, they were all so wonderful but one stood out the most, it was a puggle. He was the runt, and was 100% adorable.

"MITCH I FOUND THE ONE!" I yelled.

"Which one?" He asked, the lady that worked there followed behind.

"This one." I said pointing to the runt.

"This one has been pretty viscous to the other people that liked him." The lady explained.

"Well can I please see how he does with me?"

"Ok."

She opened the cage and pulled out the runt. He was white, light brown and black. She put him in my arms and held out hers just in case he didn't like me. But he looked up at me and licked the side of my face.

"Wow your the first one that he actually likes!" The lady said.

"Yay! Let's get this paper work done!" I said.

We spent about 30 minutes there doing all the paper work, the lady gave us a cage to put him in on the ride home. I named him Duke.

"I love the name." Mitch said petting Duke's head.

"Thanks." I smiled.
