I woke up in the middle of the night, I think, since it felt like I was freezing. I slowly looked around and I saw that Cara was wrapped up in the blanket, leaving me unshielded for the freezing air. Since when was it so cold?
I first wanted to pull the blanket back, but then I decided not to, since that would probably wake Cara up and she needs her sleep, since it's her first week off in four months. So, I decided to just grab another blanket.
I walked downstairs to grab the blanket that was laying next to the couch, when I looked outside and suddenly noticed something strange. Everything was white! And it was still snowing! I almost woke Cara up because it almost never snowed here. That also explains why it was so cold!
I continued my walk to the living room and I checked the time. It was already 5 in the morning! In two hours I should already get up again, because I was trying to get my biology master, so I decided not to go back to sleep.
I made myself a warm cup of tea and grabbed some warm clothes so that I could sit outside watching the snow fall and enjoy the outside air.
After grabbing a blanket, a hat, gloves, tea and some extra warm clothes, I made my way outside and made myself comfortable in the rocking chair that was standing in the middle of the terrace.
I sat down and looked at all the small, white, cold snow flakes that came falling down from the sky. I always liked watching snow fall, it was just so beautiful and romantic. I wish Cara was here with me, but I'm not going to wake her up since she needs her sleep.
Suddenly someone touched my arm and I screamed since no one else was supposed to be here.
"There you are! I was looking everywhere for you! I thought you were gone or something because I couldn't find you! I woke up and you weren't next to me! Never scare me like that again! Now, stand up, I want to sit beside you."
I quickly stood up and Cara swiftly moved behind me. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. I woke up and decided to sit outside before I had to get ready for school. Are you sure you don't want to go to sleep again babe? I know how tired you were."
"No, it's fine. I'd rather sit here with you enjoying the snow. I like watching the snowflakes. They are all so beautiful and no snowflake is the same. They are just all special in their own way. But we both should put on some warmer clothes before one of us catches a cold. I can already feel that you're freezing. Let's go."
She says while holding out her hand for me so that the both of us could walk back inside together to put on some warmer clothes.
We walked back upstairs together and we quickly changed into our winter clothes for the rest of the day, existing out of a warm sweater and warm sweatpants. I really didn't care about the clothes I wore to school.
"Shall we go for a walk? We have some time left before you have to go to school. We could just walk around and then I could walk you to school to make sure you arrive safely."
"Yes, that sounds very nice babe! Let's go! But we have to watch out because it's probably very slippery. And don't forget your gloves babe! Otherwise your hands will freeze and we don't want that!"
Cara rolled her eyes at me and I snickered softly which resulted in her grinning at me because she found the sound "adorable". Her words, not mine.
After 15 minutes we had found our scarfs and gloves and we walked outside into the snow.
When we stood outside, Cara gently shoved me to the side, being the playful person that she is, but she didn't realise that it was very slippery, so I fell face down into a pile of snow because I slipped and she was laughing hysterically at me.
I sat up and pouted at here, covered in snow from head to toe. "That was not nice babe. Now I'm cold, since there is snow everywhere! Meanie."
She laughed at me while offering me her hand. I'm sorry baby. I just couldn't resist it. Come here I will help you up. Are you-"
She was abruptly cut off since I took her hand and dragged her down next to me. She didn't see it coming so she was totally covered in snow as well. Now it was my turn to laugh and Cara pouted at me.
"Awww don't be sad babe! It's just a little bit of snow. And stop pouting! You look too cute when you pout." I said while softly pecking her lips.
She smiled at me and pulled me back to give me a proper kiss. It was as amazing as always. I would kiss her forever if I could. After we both pulled back, she stood up again and helped me get up as well. We smiled at each other and started to slowly walk to my school. we entwined our fingers and it felt as safe as always.
We were small talking until we were halfway. We stood still at a hill, which we had to walk down and looked at each other.
"Do you think it's safe to walk down here? It looks very slippery. What if one of us falls and breaks something?" I ask Cara worriedly.
"Don't worry baby. I will go first and then you can go, so that if you fall, I will be there to catch you. I will always catch you. And if I can walk down, you can walk down." She reassured me while giving my hand a little squeeze and smiling at me while starting to walk down the hill.
After five minutes, Cara safely stood at the bottom of the hill, without a scratch. If she can do it, I can do it I told myself, but not entirely believing myself.
I took a deep breath and started walking down very carefully while Cara was cheering me on. When I was reaching the end of the hill, I became too reckless and began walking too fast, which resulted in me slipping and falling down the last 3 metres of the hill.
Cara quickly came running towards me with concern in her eyes. "Oh my god, Y/N! Are you okay? I didn't expect you to actually fall! Are you hurt? I'm so sorry! You warned me but I didn't listen! You didn't break anything did you?" She asked while gently helping you up, eyeing you to look if you were hurt.
Instead of answering her questions you said. "You know, I just fell for you." While winking at her. This resulted in her cracking a smile and hitting you playfully in the shoulder.
"You dork. Why do you have to make such a comment after you fell down three meters from an icy hill? Why do I even like you." She asked while laughing and shaking her head at you.
"You know you love me and my comments babe. You can't deny it." You said while winking at her and grabbing her hand. She blushed and muttered something like I hate you under her breath.
"I love you too babe." You grinned at her. "Yeah, I love you too Y/N. You may be a dork sometimes, but you're still my dork and I wouldn't have it any other way." She said while gently squeezing your hand.
"Now let's get you to school without any more accidents. I don't want you to end up in the hospital today. But we have to hurry a bit because you're already late." She said while laughing at me.
"You know what, let's skip school today. I will just call in sick, so that the two of us can spend the day together." I said while smiling softly at her.
She gazed lovingly at me and squeezed my hand. "Sounds like a great plan baby."
With that we spend the rest of our day together, outside in the snow and it was one of the best days ever.
