**Jaces pov **

It took quite a long time to set up. It's like a picnic under the stars, with a twist, atop the flat part of a hill.

Ringing the door bell, I waited nervously. Only to hear what sounded like, pushing and shoving all the way to the door.

Suddenly, the door was ripped open and there stood Xavier and Mr. Heart. Both openly glaring at me.

"Umm, hi?" I say nervously, running my hand up and down the back of my neck.

"So Jace." Xavier starts. "What do you plan on doing with my younger sister tonight?"

"Umm, just alittle something I set up." I grinned, until I noticed the look I got and added. "I'd tell you but, I can't let sug - I mean - Jamie find out, you see it's supposed to be a suprise..."

"You listen to me you punk." Her dad growls, pushing past his son and grabbing the collar of my white button up and pulling me down to his height, which was a few inches smaller than me. "You hurt my daughter, I don't care who you are, I will turn you into a female by cutting off your balls in your sleep. And as you bleed to death because of the pain, I will shove them down your throat and make you choke."

That's when we heard footsteps coming down the stairs. Instantly, her dad released my shirt and backed away, clearing his throat and saying with a forced grin.

"So as I was saying, have fun."

Jamie walked over slowly to me and I was at a loss for words. She looked beautiful.

She was wearing blue jeans with large holes in the knees and a white cropped top, with a light pink cardigan that reached her lower leg and some pumps the same colour.

Her blonde hair was lightly curled at the end and her green eyes seemed brighter and bolder, since they were lined with winged eyeliner and pink eyeshadow, with some silver glitter. Her lips were coated in a nude colour and wow, you would think I'd seen an angel.

Gosh this girl is trying to kill me. Hearing a feminine cough, I looked up to meet Jamie's eyes eyes once again.

"Am I too dressed up?" She asked.

"No you look gorgeous." I smiled.

"Well you look very handsome." She blushed.

Looking down at myself, I knew I was nothing compared to her. Wearing a pair of my black jeans and boots, with my now slightly crumpled, white button up shirt slightly untucked at the front. Also, my hair was sticking out in different directions and slightly brushed backwards, let's just say it didn't start like this. But I was so nervous, I kept running my hands through my hair.

"So do you want to go?" I ask, offering her my hand. Which thankfully she took, nodding her head.

****

After a 10 minuet drive we arrived at the bottom of the hill. It was already dark as it was late winter and the sky was practically clear, minus afew stray clouds.

"Ok sugarplum." I said turning my back to her and bending slightly. "Up you get."

"What? Like on your back?" She gasped.

"Yes on my back, I'm not letting you walk." I chuckled. "Now climb up."

So, without arguing she placed her hands in my shoulders and jumping into my back, after afew mini jumps. Wrapping my arms under her thighs and her wrapping here around my neck, I set off up the hill.

Finally reaching the top, I slowly set Jamie on the ground. Turning to face her I saw her gazing up to the sky in awe.

"I love the stars." She whispered.

"Me too." I grin, looking down at her. "There's just something about them."

That's when she looked down at the ground, to see we were on the level part of the hill. Where I set up our date.

I had set up about 5 blankets and pillows across apart of the grass, with a picnic basket set in the middle. The guys helped being up an outdoor couch and afew chairs to rest some fairy lights over.

Then I set up a transportable movie screen and a small projector infront of some blankets, on a mini coffee table. Also speakers, so we could hear the movies, I had prepared.

"Jace this is amazing!" She squealed.

"Its all for you." I say, before slightly pushing her forwards. "Go choose a movie."

And she did. She was off like a bullet fired from a gun, leaping over the small couch and searching through the pile of DVD's.

***

We were halfway through the good dinosaur, when Jamie decided she was hungry. And let's just say, if you think I did well at planning the date, then I really out did myself with the food.

As my mum has always said, 'the way to a girls heart is through her stomach.' It's just something I've stuck by and it also works vise-versa.

I made chicken and cheese baguettes, a ham salad, pasta and some red velvet buns covered in vanilla icing. I also bought skittles, Oreos, appletiser and bbq Pringles.

Don't judge my choice of foods, but I chose most of the stuff that Jamie has liked the most during our personal rehab days, and damn does this girl have an appiteit.

"Hot tomalies in summer!" She gasped. "You did all of this for me?"

"Of course." I grin at her. "A queen like you deserves, the royal treatment right?"

She didn't answer,but she did turn a bright pink. And then hid herself behind a packet of skittles, only do me to slowly lower them and lost her chin with my other hand.

"Never hide your face from me, sugarplum. Such beauty should not be hidden, but showcased to the world." I stated, only to turn Jamie's face into a tomato.

"Jesus. Can you maybe stop for two minuets?" She asked. "I'd rather not look like an umpalumpa, on our first date."

"I can't help speaking the truth." I faked a sigh. "But, I can try. Only for you."

And this is how the rest of the night went. Me making Jamie blush and her smacking me upside the head, everytime I told her umpalumpa red suited her.

***

It was now 10 to 2 and I was just dropping Jamie off. I understand its really late or early for that matter, but we ended up watching around 5 movies.

"I had alot of fun tonight." She smiled, as we walked up the porch steps.

"So did I." I say back. "Most fun I've had in awhile. So sugarplum, how about we do it again sometime soon?"

"I'd like that." She giggled, standing on the tip of her toes and giving me a small pack on the cheek. "Goodnight Jace."

"Yeah. Goodnight."
