I set a large blanket on the grass beside a huge tree for us to sit on. A cool breeze brushed softly against my face as I went through the picnic basket.

It was filled with bags of potato chips and chocolate bars. I also got us some ice cream since I was craving it for some reason. I took a look at my phone. 7:55pm. He should be here any minute then.

After a few minutes a familiar car drove by before parking right in front of the spot I was in. Turning of the headlights he stepped out the car. Even though he was only wearing a sweatshirt and some sweatpants he still looked beautiful.

I ran towards him wrapping my arms around his neck.

"Hey, Angel," he smiled hugging me back. "I missed you."

"I missed you too," I breathed.

"Why didn't you answer my calls and texts? I was so worried," he sighed, moving a stray strand of hair behind my ear.

"I needed some time alone. To gather my thoughts about everything that has been going on lately," I mumbled. "I'm sorry if I made you worry."

"What is all this?" He peeked at the things behind me.

"A picnic date," I grinned.

"Date?" He raised his brow as he smirked.

"Yeah....a date," I chuckled scratching the back of my neck awkwardly.

"But I wanted to be the one to ask you out on a date," he pouted crossing his arms above his chest.

I shook my head at his cuteness. "You can ask me out another time."

"Hmmm...what's your favorite color?" He asked.

"Blue," I replied as I licked my ice cream. "What about you?"

"I don't have one,"he said taking a bite out of his chocolate bar.

We were sitting on the ground with our backs leaned against the tree behind us as we asked each other random questions. Honestly, I couldn't ask for more. I was content with just sitting and doing nothing if it was with him.

"What's your favorite ice cream flavor?" It was my turn to ask.

"Vanilla. And yours?"

"Cookies and cream."

"Okay so if you were stranded on an island what are 3 things you will take with you?" He questioned.

"Let's see," I furrowed my brows as I thought about his question. ‚"I would get my phone obviously. And I would also get some books for when I want to read. Oh and a camera for when I go exploring to take some amazing pictures."

He turned his head in my direction before grabbing my hand and intertwining our fingers together. "I love you, you know that?"

"I love you too, Ethan," I smiled.

"I know you do," he chuckled pulling me closer to him.

I sighed as I rested my head on his chest while his arm wrapped around my shoulder. "In a few years where do you see yourself?"

"I wanna own a house in the woods. Somewhere quiet and peaceful," he responded.

"I've been wanting to live in the woods since I was about 12 years old," I chuckled. "I'm not really a city type of girl. You could say I got this from my father. He was an outdoors type of guy and he would always take me with him wherever he goes."

"Let's make a deal then," he said suddenly."A year from now, let's get a house in the woods together. It could be our own getaway when we just want to get away from everything."

"Okay then. It's a deal."
