I held in my excitement as Ethan directed me out of the car, the blindfold on my eyes stopping me from seeing where I was, or what we were doing. He'd told me that he had a surprise, and proceeded to put a bandana across my eyes for the whole car journey. It was only ten or fifteen minutes, so I could cope.

" when can I take this off? It's so tight " I groaned, a laugh escaping my lips soon after as I felt Ethan come to a stop.
" any second now, just a few more steps " The boy finished off, eventually coming to a stop.
" hold out your hand " He instructed me, my eyebrow raising, although he couldn't see it because of the red bandana.
I did as he said, not wanting to question it. I was too excited, so I wanted to be able to open my eyes as soon as possible.

I felt him drop something into the palm of my hand, something which sounded like metal. It rattled like keys, my eyebrows furrowing as I ripped off the bandana, looking down at the object in my hand. There was a set of keys, with a key chain of the Eiffel Tower dangling from the chain. I smiled at it, looking up at the boy in confusion.
Before I could even question what the keys were for, he turned, looking at the building at which we were stood at. My jaw dropped to the floor when I saw it, my heart beat quickening as I thought about what this could mean.
" you did not! " I nearly squealed, my eyes scanning across the beautiful front lawn, and the large front door.
" yes I did. Somewhere for just me and you, Hol " Ethan smiled, his hands landing on my waist as he looked down at me with the largest smile.
I grinned, throwing my arms around the boy as I pulled him into my arms, a shriek of joy leaving my mouth. I heard the amazing boy giggle, before I pressed a kiss to his lips, thanking him over and over again before he lead me into the house.

It was perfect. The three bedroomed house had a gorgeous kitchen, one which I could just imagine Ethan cooking in, trying his best but somehow still serving terrible meals. The living room was cosy and was of a nice size, a wood burning fire place mounted in the centre of the large wall.
I took Ethan's hand as he showed me the back garden, one so big that I could picture the small parties we could throw, or just the family get togethers. It was the most brilliant place to raise a child, the garden decking leading out towards the large grass area, which also went down a slope. The slope lead towards a back gate, trees from the forest behind on show.
" right through there, is somewhere Gray and I go all of the time. There's a little bridge and we jump off of it into the river " He smiled joyfully, in love with where he grew up.
I turned to the boy I loved with a grin, draping my arms over his shoulders and letting out a breath. I was beyond happy. The happiest I'd ever been.
" this is amazing, Ethan. I can't thank you enough " I tried to express how grateful I was, only for him to shake his head.
" don't thank me. We needed somewhere of our own. Somewhere to raise this lil guy, huh? " He smirked, pecking my lips before trailing his hands down to my belly, raising my top slightly before pressing his lips against my tummy.
" lil guy? " I giggled, referring to what he'd just called the baby.
He looked back up at me, his eyebrow quirking up and his lips going up with it
" I just have a feeling "
