"Thanks ,." I say to the man , with the brightest smile , and happy personality , at the window , who took my money , and gave me my ticket .

"Baby , wake up ... We're here ! " I say , to Aaron .

"Tony , we first , first , first met here ..." She turns her head to look at how beautiful the water is .

"I thought I was closed ?! " She says loud , and confused .

"I heard it rained here , and in Stockton , and that it was a total of at least 7 inches of rain ... and the lake is back at it's self .." I finish .

"And... whose car is this ? Where is your...~ hey , don't worry about it .. It's a stress free , worry free day off . Don't worry about anything .. " He says , and I fell my tensed body release it's self , as , Tony backs in the Flat bed truck , with a tarp over it .

He whistles .

"Hey ! No peeking .." He reaches on the side of him , and pulls out a red due rag .

"Noo ! I wont peek I swear ! I don't want that on my face please ..." I plead .

"Fine ..but if I see you peek , it's going on .. sit in the car , and wait I'm going to set up everything .." He says , and with a swift move he is out the truck and shutting the door .

"I kissed the scars on her skin , I still think you're beautiful and I don't ever want to loose my best friend , I screamed out god you vulture , bring her back or take my with her ..." He ended his voice their , he doesn't know how to scream .

I chuckle at the thought of it .

"It never made me stronger at all , love will scar you makeup , lip sticks to me ,...wishing I was stronger ..." He starts an Ed Sheeran song , but doesn't finish it .

"Your just a small bump unborn , and four months your brought to life  . Might be left with my hair , but you'll have your mothers eyes . Ill hold  your body in my hands be as gentle as I can , but for now your scared of my unmade plans , a small bump , in four months you're brought to life , and I'll whisper quietly , and give you nothing but truth . If your not inside me , I'll  put my future in you ..." He sang my all time favorite song 'Small Bump' .

"Babe , get out the car , with your eye's closed .." He says , and I do so  . 

"Open .." He says , as he caress my arms from behind me .

"This is for us , and a dip in the nice beautiful lake ... and a beautiful starry night ... " He says , and I strip into a suit , and head for the water .

"Hey ! Wait for me !" He runs after me , but I am long gone in the water .

"Shit , it's already getting dark .." He cruses .

"It's fine , come on , let's get situated .." I almost drag him out the water .

"You , know .. you were so focused on our relationship , and worried about school , and my pops , and your parents memorial , and everything else ... You didn't even realize , that it's your birthday week ..." He catches me off guard  .

"Happy Early birthday baby ..." He says , and kisses me .

"I suppose .. we should sleep now , so we could get up early , and sing ! swim , I I meant swim.. unless you want to sing ,, because you know your voice is ..~ I don't like singing , I play the guitar ... " He is a bit snappy .

With out thinking , I turn around expecting to see a tent , but nope.

"Uh , where are we .." before I finish , he pulls the blue tarp off of the back of the truck and their lye's our sleeping gear , a shit load of blankets , and pillows .

"After you M'lady  .." He throws the now wet towel on a chair near by and helps me in .

"This is .... look at the sky ... it's so , perfect ..." I say as I stare at the most beautiful sky you could imagine .

"You could never get this in San Diego babe ... " He wraps his body with mine , and we lye together and watch the stars .

"This is the same exact spot , where you 'accidentally kissed me' , in my tent that I was sharing with Stephanie, and she got all pissed ..." He chuckles .

Normally I'd be jealous that he's thinking about her at a time like this , but  don't want to kill the moment .

"I wish we could stay in this moment forever .." I mutter in his shoulder .

*Tony's POV*

"This is the same exact spot where you 'accidentally kissed me' , in my tent that I was sharing with Stephanie, and she got all pissed ..." I chuckle .

'Tony what the fuck are you doing ? Bringing up your Ex GIRLFRIEND AT A MUTHA FUCKIN TIME LIKE THIS ?1 ARE YOU SERIOUS ?! ' My conscious , is kicking my ass , but truth is , I kind of  ~

"I wish we could stay in this moment forever .." I listen to Aaron mutter .

"So do I baby ... so do I ..." I finish my words , and look back up to the sky , with Aaron .

"Tony "

"Yes Babe ."

"Do you promise to never hurt me ?" I can hear the pain in the back of her throat , hoping I say 'yes' .

"I promise , to never hurt you ." I say , and suddenly  Stephanie's face pops in my head .

"Aaron .." I say , hoping she isn't a sleep .

"Yes ?" she side hugs me , but never moving her eyes from the sky .

"I... I love you .." I still get butterflies when I tell her this , when will they go away .

"I love you .." She replies , and kisses me .

"I love you so much , the universe is a grind of sand , on the biggest beach in the world , compared to my love for you .." She adds

"I love you more than words can describe , more that the universe being a grind of sand .. more then life it's self .. "

"Tony I~ I'd kill for you , I'd take a bullet for you , I'd do anything for you to be happy , even if it meant hurting my self ... I cannot bare to think about hurting you ... ever .. "  I finish , and I look to her , and she is crying .

I jump up .

"What's .. what's wrong ?" I clasp her shoulders in my hands .

"No one has ever , admitted their true feelings to me .. ever .." She looks toward the water .

"What are you thinking about ? .. Hmm .."

"Their is to much.. too much on my mind .. I cant focus ... I'm sorry ." She looks me in the eye and looses it .

"No , baby ... baby don't cry , please ? This is your birthday week . please don't ..please ?" I lift her chin , and look at her eyes , her red puffy eyes , and with the little light of the moon , I can see she is pale . Her eyes , show her pain , and her voice tells me , she's okay , but she's hurting , aching . burned out .

'think like mike ... think like mike you got the weed, and the bong .. pull it out'

I mentally kill my conscious .

"I'm sorry I just ... ~ she reaches for her bag , and pulls out a bottle of Jack ~ that's much better ." She takes two big gulps down .

"No .... ~I take the bottle away from her ~ this ~ I wave the bottle in the air ~ this is not , is NOT how you are going to get rid of you problems . Now you could kill me while I pour this bottle out , or you could hand the cap over , and we will talk about this ." I say very serious .

"I don't know how to talk about what's going on ..... " She says , and her eye's lid's droop over her eye balls .

"Sh , sh , sh , ~ I pull her toward me , and cover us up~ it's okay baby , it's okay ..." I hold her , Till I hear light snores.

I take a sip of the hard liquor  .

Here's to a lovely night , with the girl I love .
