Caitlin's POV

Jack and I have been walking through the streets of New York for about 20 minutes. In these past 20 minutes, our hands have stayed interlocked. If I'm being honest I think we're lost.

"Uh Jack, do you actually know where we are?" I ask.

"Nope," He says confidently with a smile.

"Why are you so smiley?" I ask curiously.

"Because I have an idea," He replies.

"Are you gonna tell me this idea?"

"Just follow me babe,"

We end up walking for a good 15 more minutes until Jack guided me down to the subway. We bought day passes for the subway and hopped onto a random train. Man, I really hope Jack knows where he's going. After a good 10 minutes, Jack leads me off of the subway.

"Jack, c'mon where are we going?" I ask as we step onto the pavement of the sidewalk.

"A few more minutes, I promise," He confirms.

"I hope," I mumble.

After a few blocks, I start to recognize where we are, Times Square. I look around and observe all of the tall buildings and signs. There's even a 3 story McDonald's! As I'm looking around Jack stops walking and I bump into him.

"Why'd you stop?" I ask looking at him.

"Because we're here," He answers gesturing to the building in front of us.

I look in front of me and see that we're at the Disney store. Without saying anything to Jack, I run inside the store. I hear Jack run in after me.

"Do you like it?" Jack asks.

"I. LOVE. IT!" I shout earning glares from fellow customers, and a few laughs from the kids.

"I remember you talking about how much you love Disney, so I thought this would be an appropriate first date. At least part of it, so pick out whatever you want and I'll buy it for you," He tells me.

"Wait, anything?" I ask.

"Anything," He returns.

Normally, a girlfriend would "fight" with her boyfriend and tell him not to buy her stuff, and usually, that's the case with me. But I mean c'mon, it's a Disney store and he's letting me get whatever I want.

I walk around the store looking for things that I want. After about 3 minutes I see this huge stuffed Stitch that is the most adorable thing ever!

"JACK? JACK?!" I shout through the store.

I keep walking around and through the isles searching for Jack. Soon I find him taking pictures with some girls, which I'm guessing are fans. I'm just gonna let him be and look around more. As I'm walking away, I hear my name being called, Jack. I turn around and face him.

"Hey, where are you going?" He asks.

"Just looking around more," I reply.

"Did you see anything you like?" He says smiling.

"Yeah, I was about to tell you, but I saw you were busy," I tell him.

"You could've still told me," He says.

"Yeah, but I wanted those girls to have a picture, I could've told you later, that might be their only chance," I say.

Jack doesn't say anything, instead he just hugs me.

"You're sweet, but you didn't have to do that," he mumbles into my neck.

I pull away from the hug, "OKAY NOW LET ME SHOW YOU WHAT I FOUND!" I tell Jack dragging him behind me.
