You Found Me

Chapter 8 

"I still can't believe you two spent the night talking in the park." Hanna said. I shrugged, and contiuned on with drawing, (which isn't my forte but I enjoy doing from time to time). Anyway, that happened two nights ago. The night we kissed...Since then, Louis and I have been calling each other, he's still busy, but I'm supposed to see him tonight. 

"Why aren't you all giddy and excited!?" She asked. I looked up at her, not really saying anything. "you're happy aren't you?" 

"Hanna..I dont know. Is this right? Should I believe what he says?" 

"You think he's lying?" 

"Well no- not exactly. It's just..I feel like he meant what he said, but what happens now?"

"Well you two are obviously an item now, and I doubt he's going to be forgetting about you anytime soon. I think he proved that the other night."  

"I know, and we're going out tonight, but-" 

"But what?"

 "..I guess I just think too much." 

Hanna smiles, "I think so too, love. So where's the boy taking you?" 

"I have no idea. He won't tell me. I think he likes being spontaneous."

"Have you picked an outfit yet!?" 

"Yes, Hanna. I did it ahead of time." I grinned. "Finally, I'm glad you're learning something." She chuckled.

About an hour later, Louis came to pick me up. He had a pretty nice car, and we had a good getaway. It's quiet in the car. "How are you?" Louis asks. "I'm fine, thank you." I reply. 

"Have any idea where I'm taking you yet?"  

I shake my head, "Nope." 

"Why so solemn?" He asks. "Solemn? I dunno. I'm just thinking." I say. 

"About what?" He asks. "About the summer. About the other night." 

" The other night.." He mutters, and a small smile appears on the corner of his mouth. 

"What're you smiling about?"  "I dont know, I guess the other night was pretty fun." He says. 

"Well of course, my jokes were amazing." I boasted, jokingly of course. "Your jokes?" He laughs, "those were terrible!" 

"No they weren't! You're just jealous." I chuckled. "You've got me there." He smiles.  

"you know what else was amazing about the other night?" He askes. 

"You tell me." I reply. "The-" 

"Oh look! Is that a lake?" I cut him off, looking over the dashboard of the car. There's a large body of water there. It's not too crowded today. It's quiet. There's people sitting in benches, reading and enjoying the beautiful atmosphere. 

"This is Hampstead Heath." He says. "It's beautiful.." 

"It's sort've like one big pond."

 Louis and I jump out of the car, and he puts on his sunglasses. I don't think we want to attract any attention today, it would surely disrupt the peacefulness of this beautiful place. 

"So a pond?" I say, following him as we walk.  "Mhmm. We're almost to the spot where I want to take you." He replies. 

We walk a little while longer, until we come to a grassy area. There's a boat there sitting on the land, ready to be pushed into the body of water. "Ready to go boating?" He asks. I laugh, "Boating? What if I can't swim?"
