Chapter 40

Anthony and I played would you rather in the car, while he drove. I looked up questions on the internet and asked them and they usually led to a lot of interesting questions.

" Would you rather never use Social Media ever again or never watch another movie or TV show again?" I ask, looking up from my phone, " You First"

" Never use Social Media, " He says, " Because the hate but if I couldn't watch movies or TV shows, then it would be hard to act, "

Anthony got a job for a TV show called Younger. He is going to be in 2 episodes as a character named Julio. It is going to be his first on-screen role so he was very excited.

" Same. But, if I didn't have TV, how would I be able to watch you, " I say, smiling. " Okay, Would you rather die in 20 years with no regrets or in 50 years with tons of regrets, "I ask.

" your turn to go first, " He reminds me and I think.

" Probably 20 because if you have no regrets than maybe that means you finished everything that you wanted in 20 years, " I say and he nods.

" I was thinking the same thing. Great minds think alike, " He says, winking at me.

" Would you rather wear a shirt 2 sizes big or 1 size too small, " I ask, already knowing him well enough to know what he is going to say.

" 2 sizes big, " He replies and I nod because I was right.

" Too big because I already wear your hoodies so wouldn't matter, " I say, remembering the many times when Anthony kept multiple hoodies in his dressing room so he lets me take them. I smile at him, fondly.

We turn onto a dirt road and I ask, " Anthony, where are we going?" He just smiles and focuses on the bumpy road.

" I am not telling you yet, " He says, So we play would you rather for a couple more minutes until he says, " Okay, we are almost here, so I'll tell you. "

" Okay, where are we going?" I say.

" So do you remember when we were in Javi's dressing room drinking coffee, and you were talking to Ariana and Jasmine about what you thought the perfect date was, well, I was listening and I planned it all out, " He says, as we pull up to a ranch.

I think back to then. I get super excited, because I remember saying that I would want to go horseback riding at sunset, "Seriously? Horse Back Riding?"

My eyes light up and Anthony laughs and says, " Unless you don't want to, " I snort and shake my head.

" Good, " He says, handing me a helmet. He continues, " You can pick which horse you want and I'll pick mine and we can get going, "

" Wait, I don't know how to actually ride a horse, " I say, confused.

He just smiles and says, " Follow me, "

I follow him in and he teaches me how to ride a horse, how to trot and things like that. But, before we could go riding, it was dinner time. We ate quickly and around 7:00, we finally got to do our ride. The timing was perfect because as we rode, the sun started setting. We watched the sunset together and talked as we trotted around.

At around 10:00, we had to leave so we talked the entire ride home and I got home at about 10:45.

" Hey" Anthony Says, before I get out of the car. " I just wanted to say something. You are like my best friend and my girlfriend and I love you, " He spits out.

My eyes widen. Did he just say he loves me?" I love you too, Ant, " I say, confidently, because truth was that I was falling for this bean. He smiles widely.

We kissed goodbye and I walked into my house, super giddy.

" Hey, how was your day?" Asks Mom, coming out of Sebastian's room.

" Perfect, " I say. I blurt out what happened all day. I showed her the pictures and my nails and then, I told her about Anthony and I.

" He was listening though. And he planned the perfect date, " I say, just as Dad walks out to us.

" Oh, no. Was it good?" He says, groaning.

" Yeah, why" I ask, confused.

" Because that means you guys are going to go out again, " dad says, sighing and I laugh along with Mom.

" Oh yeah, He also might have also maybe said he loves me, " I say, quickly.

" What?" Says Dad and Mom. I giggle.

" Okay, I ship this so hard. Awww, my baby is in love, " Says Mom first, hugging me. I smile, hugging her back.

" Do I get a say in this?" Dad asks and I shake my head no. " Oh, well, Congratulations, " He says, defeated, smiling at me quickly after.

I giggle and go to bed.
