Fear •Zack Merrick•

A Surprise Date ^08^

Elliott's POV;

I rub my tummy, letting a sigh escape. "Please?"

Zack shakes his head. "Nope."

"Why can't I know where we're going?" I complain.

"Because it's a secret."

I huff.

We drive for about ten more minutes, before he hands me a blindfold.

"Really, Zack?"

"Please, it's a surprise." He pouted at me.

I couldn't resist that face. I grabbed the blindfold, taking off my glasses and wrapping it around my head.

Where could he be taking me that's so important that he rented a car?

I guess I'll just have to wait and see. 

We drive for about 5 more minutes before I feel the car come to a stop, and he climbed out. I unbuckle as he comes around and opens my door, picking me up.

I squeal and grab onto his shoulders.

Zack laughs, before kissing my head. He starts to walk to where ever it is that we're going. 

"It's not far now."

I press my head into his neck, and take a deep breath. He was so warm. 

Luckily it was a nice day today, no chill. 

He was right when he said it wasn't far. He sat me down on what felt like some sort of floor; it was hard and smooth.

"Can I take off the blindfold now?" I ask. 

"Wait.. just one more.... Okay! You can take it off." He exclaims.

I pull it off, and slip my glasses on. 

We were on a stage.

Not just any stage though. The very stage where he asked me out, almost 2 years ago. A picnic was layed out. 

"Zack.." I smile, unable to stop myself from pressing my lips against his. 

He laughs, and kisses me back. 

"We don't get much time for dates, you know, so I just thought since we were gonna be passing by here, I may plan one." He mumbles nervously. 

I smile. "It's perfect." 

"Can you grab the water?" He asks, running his fingers through his hair real fast. 

I crawl forward, grabbing two water bottles. I heard a little movement behind me, which I knew was just him.

I turn back, and drop them at the sight.

There Zack was, on one knee, with a box in his hand. A beautiful ring placed inside. 

I'm about to speak up when he speaks first. 

"Elliott, I don't even know where to start. These past 2 years have been the best of my life, not counting the bad times, I mean, but spending time with you was the one thing that truly made me happy. Every day that I woke up beside you, meant another day that I could spend with the love of my life, and I don't ever want to lose that. You mean the world to me. We're about to have a family too. 

And everything that's happened, has just made me realize how much I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Maybe this is a bit early, but I just want to ask you.

Will you marry me, El?"

I was almost sobbing because of these damn hormones. 

"I wouldn't want anything more." I say, crawling over to him. 

I see the tears welling up in Zack's eyes, but he wipes them, before slipping the ring on my finger. 

I climb into his open arms, and wrap mine around him as if he was about to disappear right on the spot. 

"I love you so damn much, El. I can't wait to be able to call you my wife."
