 *Kate's P.O.V*

George sat down with our coffees and I gulped mine down, my hands had finally stopped shaking since leaving the police station. "So I have a suprise for you" George said, taking a sip from his cup and smirking. "What is it?" I said grinning impatiently. "Oh you'll find out today" he said smiling down at me, his deep brown eyes looking straight into mine. 

After finishing our drinks we decided to go for a walk to clear our heads. I took him through a country road I knew where it was open and the scenery was beautiful.

"Do you like the countryside?" he asked as we were walking hand in hand. "Yeah, me and my mum used to live in the country before she got taken to the hospital" I told him, "We had horses too, I used to go horse riding every day, but I kind of stopped as I grew up". 

"What about you?" I asked him curiously. "What about me?" he said stroking his thumb across the back of my hand as we walked. "Where did you grow up?" I asked. "Bristol, with my family. We've always had a full house. I spent most of my time at home though, so the company was nice I guess" he said. His lips were smiling but his eyes were sad. "Why at home?" I asked, wondering what had made him hurt. "I got bullied as a kid. A lot. So I just stopped turning up to school, but that's how I got into music you know, with all that spare time on my hands" he explained.

Him saying that made me realise that I hadn't heard the band sing. Maybe they could sing to me sometime.. 

"Aw look! How cute are they" George said pointing at a couple of horses with their heads resting over a fence towards us. He walked towards them still holding my hand and pulling me with him. He stroked the horses face and I just watched how cute he looked. "Will you take a picture for me? I'll put this on twitter" he said cheerfully. "Honestly, you and twitter George youre never off it!" I laughed. He passed me his phone and I took a picture of him and the horses. "Now you get in this one" he smiled. We were laughing at ourselves trying to squeeze all four of us in the photo, but we put our faces close together and smiled. "I think this might just be my favourite photograph ever" he said re-taking my hand as we carried on walking. I checked my phone... 3pm. We didn't have that long left. Plus it was early February so it would start getting dark at four. 

We got back to his car and I presumed we were going back to the hotel, but he drove straight past it. "Erm, George..I love you but you have no sense of direction.. you just missed the turn off for the hotel" I said laughing. "Well I love you too, but the day isn't over yet" he said winking at me. Okay..what was he planning now?

☆Georges P.O.V☆

I drove the same route I had the night that Kate fell asleep in the car, which was a good thing because it meant she didn't recognise where we were going. I drove for an hour before we got there. The journey was filled with her flicking through all my CD's and we talked about how much we had in common in a musical sense. She told me how she studied music at A level and she played piano which made her even more interesting, which I didn't think was possible. As we pulled up onto the same beach where we shared our first kiss, Kate's face suddenly lit up. "George this is so sweet of you!" she said as I opened her car door. We walked to the same spot I had previously taken her and she sat with her legs stretched out and her back against the caved wall, whilst I lay sideways with my head on her lap, staring out at the sea. 

I was so relaxed that I could have drifted off to sleep as she gently played with the curls in my hair, I could feel the warmth of her hands next to my face in the cold evening air. But this was where I had to ask her, and pray she'd say yes.

"Kate?" I said, sitting up and facing her. "Yeah" she said, looking at the sea. 

"I want you to come to America with me" I said.

Her eyes widened and a huge smile spread across her face. "Yes..yes I'll do it!" She said jumping up. I got to my feet and put my hands around her waist, picking her up and spinning her around. "I'm so happy George, I won't have to be without you" she said as I put her down.

Everything suddenly felt different. Our eyes locked on each others as she leant back against the wall, I stood infront of her, one of my hands pressed firmly against the wall on either side of her. She wrapped her hands around my waist and I kissed her like I'd never kissed anyone before. Before I knew it my hands were moving down from the wall to her neck and then her waist, we were both breathless as she ran her hands through my hair. "Let's get out of here" I whispered in her ear, scooping her up in my arms. 

I carried her in my arms until we got to the car and I put her down to open her door. I was driving a lot faster than usual. The tension was electric between us, I couldn't even focus on the road because I kept looking over at her in the passenger seat.

We walked through the hotel lobby and thankfully there was no one else in the lift. As the doors closed she pushed me against the back of the lift, kissing my neck. We jumped apart as the doors shot open and there was an elderly couple waiting to get in, and I grabbed Kate's hand, pulling her down the corridoor towards my hotel room. I fumbled with the keycard that gave me access. I knew no one was in because Josh, Jaymi and JJ were all having a night out before we left for America.

As soon as the door opened I picked her up and lay her down on my bed, I wanted to ask her if she was sure about this but the way she was kissing me was all the confirmation I needed. I was breathless already as I pulled her dress over her head, how could a girl have this effect on me? I pulled my shirt of as she unbuttoned my jeans and I kicked my trousers onto the floor, leaving a trail of clothes behind us.

She gasped as she wrapped her legs around me and all I could think of was how much this moment reminded me of one of our songs,

"It's like were caught up in an endless dream,

the clocks don't tick when you hold onto me,

we're keeping the rhythm so perfectly,

you leave me breathless, leave me breathless"

* Kate's P.O.V *

It was only half an hour later when we were lying wrapped in each others arms that I realised we hadn't used protection. It'll be fine, I told myself, I had done it before and been fine. Just as both of our heart rates slowed down I heard lots of noise coming from outside of George's room. "NO JJ THAT'S MY DRINK" I heard Josh say. They were all clearly drunk. "Oh my god, I'm so sorry about these lot" George moaned, getting up and putting a pair of boxers on. 

While George put three quarters of a very drunk band to bed, I sat there smiling, thinking that if this is what life was going to be like on the road in America, I would very much enjoy it.
