It was the night of Thomas and I's date, and I was really excited yet nervous. He didn't tell me what we're doing, but I trust him.

He told me to dress warm, but I wanted to dress cute too. I had black heels and dotted fishnets. I wore a plain blue button up with a zipper.
My hair was natural, just like my makeup. I had concealer on my eyes, blush, and a light pink shade of lip stick.

He told me to meet him in the lobby of the hotel at 7, so I had to go now. I grabbed my room key, phone, and wallet before leaving my room.

When I got to the lobby, I saw Thomas standing there and waiting for me with a rose. When he saw me, I noticed his eyes light up. "Well," he looked at me up and down. "you look incredible."

I blushed and thanked him for the rose. "Thank you. You don't look terrible yourself."

He smiled before looking out the door and holding out an arm for me. "Shall we go?"

I nodded and hooked my arm with his. He had rented a car and he drove past the city and into a rural area. "Uh, where are we? Are you gonna kill me or something."

He laughed at my uneasiness but grabbed my hand. "Well, I would never kill a beautiful girl like you." Blush mode activated . "You'll see."
We had been driving out to the middle of nowhere for what seemed like forever until he stopped in front of the forest. "Okay, I'm very sure you're gonna kill me."

He got out of the car, so I went and grabbed a picnic basket. "Just come, I promise I won't kill you."
He walked into the forest, so I hesitantly followed. After a few minutes of walking, I saw some light and he stopped walking and turned around to face me. "Come here, I'm gonna cover your eyes. I want it to be a surprise. I promise I won't let you fall."
After a couple more minutes of blindly walking, he stopped again. "Okay, ready. 3 ... 2 ... 1." And he uncovered my eyes.

My jaw dropped.

It was so beautiful.

"Do you like it?"

I turned around and threw myself towards him to give him a hug and I felt tears prick at my eyes. "Of course I do; it's beautiful! How did you manage to do all this?"

"Well I'm glad you like it. I had some friends come here and set this up while we were at rehearsal. I wanted it to be perfect."

"Well they did a damn good job. C'mon!" We walked over and sat down on the blankets. I was in awe looking around. When I looked back to Thomas, he had pulled out strawberries, coconut rice, yogurt covered pretzels, and a bunch of other foods from the basket.
When I gestured at all the food, he explained. "I remember you talking about how much you like these foods, so while you were rehearsing the chef and I made all this and after rehearsal I bought the yogurt covered pretzels and strawberries."

I felt tears come to my eyes once again. "This is amazing, thank you so much."

"Don't cry, sad doesn't suit you. And don't thank me, this was my pleasure." He leaned forward and wiped the tears off my face.

"Even if, tears of joy."

We spent the night talking and laughing, and oh my god the food was so good.

"When do you go to back to Scotland?" I asked. I was curious.

"A little after filming is done. I'll be here for press and stuff and post movie parties but I'm pretty sure I leave on the 30th of November. "

"Ugh, that's like a month and a half away. I wish you didn't have to leave."

"I know, but I have to film the season 2 for The Lodge." He paused. "Oh my god, for season 2, we need a guest star. You can do it! We can go to Scotland for the next month and if you get the part then you can come with me to Belfast!"

"I don't know Tommy, what about your friends there?"

"What about them?"

"I don't know, I just don't want to feel left out." I looked down.

He brought his hand up to lift my chin and force eye contact. "Hey, you won't, I promise. And I don't break promises, you're alive aren't you?

I laughed, and I saw him smile too. "Okay, I'll audition. When are they due?"

"Not until December 20th. You can fly with me to Scotland and we'll send in the audition when we're there, or do it in person. Your choice. Deal?"

"Deal."

Near the end of the night, it was 10:00, but I didn't want to leave. It was a beautiful scenery and Thomas was great to be around. Time passes so fast when I'm with him. 
We were looking for a place to stay.
After 5 minutes of hand holding and cuddling, he abruptly sat up. "Dove, I've been wanting to ask this for a while, but, would you be my girlfriend?"

I sat up with him and smiled. "I'd be honored."

He grabbed me in a hug, and we stayed there a couple of minutes. Afterwards, he pulled away and it was like time had slowed down. All I could stare at was his eyes, the blue was really captivating. It was all a blur, but the kiss happened so fast.
It was slow, and as cliche as it sounds, passionate. I pulled back and rested my head against his. "Thank you, for everything."

It was around 11:30 when we left, and I didn't want to, but it was getting cold. We picked up all the blankets and pictures (which was a really cute touch by the way) and he grabbed the lights; I wasn't tall enough.

We drove to the hotel in a comfortable silence. Each others presence alone was enough for us. Arriving at the hotel was saddening. I didn't want this night to end. But it had to.
He walked me to my hotel room before departing to his room 10 doors down with a kiss and a goodbye.

I walked into my room feeling the happiest I've ever felt in my life.

Little did I know, he felt the same.
