I woke up to the sound of waves. I smiled as I remembered where I was and who I was with.

"Hey." Nick said leaning over me.

"Hey." I smiled. He leaned down to kiss me.

"So today we go grocery shopping." He said.

"Yes because although you somehow manage to stay skinny while eating out all the time, I will not be able to do that, so we need healthier foods."

"I mean I guess, but you look fine already."

"Tell me that same thing after I gain twenty pounds." I laughed.

"I'll still love you." He said and kissed me again.

"Okay, now I have to get ready." I said standing up and walking to the bathroom.

"I'll be here." He said.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Why?" I asked.

"Because they're good." He said. I smiled and rolled my eyes. Nick had just picked up five cans of cinnamon rolls.

"Okay." I said.

"Thank you." He replied and kissed me.

"Aw." A girl's voice said. Nick and I pulled away to see a few girls watching us from behind a bin filled with rubber ducks. They had their phones out and were taking pictures/recording.

"I think the rest of the world now knows that THE Nick Robinson is dating a girl no one has ever heard of."

He rolled his eyes, "I'm sure they've seen you in the trailers."

"Whatever." I responded smiling.

"That is rude."He said.

"I'm kidding." I laughed.

"Better be." He said.

"Or what?" I asked leaning closer to him.

"We're not there yet in our relationship, so I can't really say that."

"Are you into that stuff?"I asked

"Maybe." He shrugged. "Are you?"

"I don't know. I'm still pure."

"Really?"

"Yeah."

"I'm a little surprised honestly."

"Gee thanks."

"That's not what I meant."

"I know." I said and we laughed.

"Excuse me, Nick Robinson can I have your autograph?" A girl with glasses and braces asked.

"Sure." He smiled taking a notebook from her. "What's your name?" He asked.

"Brittney." She smiled shyly.

"Alright." He said and wrote down in her journal. "Here you go." He said handing it back to her.

"Thank you so much!" She said and ran back to her friends.

"That was nice." I said.

He shrugged, "Do what I can. Oh! Can we get poptarts?"

"One box." I said.

"Three."

"One."

"Four."

"Ugh two."

"Three."

"Two. Take it or leave it."

"Fine." He replied and grabbed two boxes of poptarts. I smiled.

"Have you never used the cabinets in this house?" I asked dusting another cobweb from one.

"Not really." He answered.

"I can tell." I laughed.

Finally after putting everything away and cleaning the kitchen since it was covered in dust, Nick and I sat on the couch to watch T.V. We began watching Friends and I laughed as Ross and Rachel rapped to make Emma laugh.

"Ya know, I really like it here." I said.

"I'm glad. Hopefully this means you'll stay forever."

"Forever?" I asked.

"Yeah. In case you didn't know, I really, really like you." He said.

"Like... A lot?" I asked.

"Like... A lot a lot." He smiled.

"Good. Because I like you a lot a lot too." I said. He smiled and leaned down to kiss me. It was so great to kiss him. He moved his hand to the back of my neck and pulled me onto his lap. We kissed again and again. My heart was pounding and my stomach was doing flips. He pulled my hair back, so that my neck was exposed and he planted soft kisses on my skin.

"We have a premiere in six days. Try not to leave any visible marks." I said.

"I'll just go lower then." He said and reached for the bottom of my shirt. Suddenly the doorbell rang. I jumped causing Nick to laugh. I leaned my head into his shoulder and smiled.

"I'll be right back." He said. I moved off of him and sat on the couch smiling while feeling how hot my cheeks were. "It's just a package." He said when he returned.

"From who?" I asked.

"My parents." He said.

"Oh what is it?" I asked. He tore the tape off of the box and opened it to pull out a brown suit.

"Nice." I replied.

"It's from my mom." He smiled.

"She has good taste."

"Hey this reminds me what are you going to wear for the premiere?" He asked.

I gasped, "Oh my... I have no idea." He laughed.

"I guess I'll go tomorrow." I said.

"Am I allowed to go with you?" He asked.

"I suppose." I laughed.

"Yay! And I'm hungry." He said. I rolled my eyes while smiling.

"Okay what do you want to eat?"

"Anything you want to make." He said.

"Alright then we're having spaghetti." I laughed.

"Fine by me." He said.

Nick watched me as I cooked. Then we ate at the table outside on the porch so we could listen to the ocean and watch the waves as they kissed the shore.

And after that we went to bed.

"I like you. Like... A lot." I said.

"Good because I like you like a lot a lot." Nick said and kissed me. When we pulled away I buried my face in his warm chest and closed my eyes. His grip around me tightened and I drifted off to sleep.
