"so, where are you taking me exactly?" I ask quietly, my eyes chasing the city lights as Shawn sped through downtown, a large grin plastered on his face.
I turn to face him. "It's a surprise," he replies cooly, his hand patting my thigh gently.
I look away, the feeling of his warm hand on my thigh giving me goosebumps as he continued to drive.

-

After about 20 more minutes of driving, Shawn finally pulls into a parking lot next to the beach.
"The beach?" I question, and he nods. "I was always taught to appreciate the smallest things in life, so that's exactly what I'm doing," he smiles, opening his car door and hurrying over to open mine.

"Thanks," I laugh lightly, removing myself from the car. The strong scent of sea water instantly in lingers into my nose as I turn my head to look out into the ocean. The sky had turned into a deep orange-pink, the base of it barely touching the surface of the pale waters - creating the most beautiful horizon I've ever seen.

"It's beautiful," I breathe, admiring the scene as Shawn stood next to me, a picnic basket in his hand.
"Like you," he says, making me look away again.

"Shall we?" He smiles, holding his hand out for me to grab, in which I take.

Shawn leads us down the sandy beach, and places the picnic blanket just before the shore. We both sit down, and he immediately starts unpacking the basket, "I hope you like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches," he laughs lightly, pulling out two neatly wrapped sandwiches and handing one over to me.

I look over to him, biting my lip, "I'm actually allergic to peanuts," I half smile.
His eyes widen, "oh my god, Y/N, I didn't know-" I burst into giggles, "I'm kidding! I love pb&j!"
Shawn glares at me playfully before setting his sandwich down, and standing up. In a spur of moments, my butt had been lifted off the blanket, and he was carrying me to the shore.

"You wouldn't dare!" I squirm and yell as Shawn held on to me tighter.
"Oh yes I would," he smirks, hovering me over the water as I pleaded him not to drop me.
"I'm sorry! I'll do anything!" I laugh, and he looks at me mischievously.
He raises his eyebrow, "kiss me then."

"Put me down first," I shoot back, and he obliges. The second my feet touch the cold water, I begin running back to our picnic set up, laughing as Shawn chases after me.

"Y/N! I'm going to get you!" He calls after me.

What felt like an eternity before I made it back to our blanket, I felt Shawn's arms snake around my waist, pulling me back.
"Gotcha!" He laughs, "now you have to kiss me."

He begins leaning in, and I close my eyes, waiting for his lips to touch mine.
Moments later, I feel his soft lips touch mine in a passionate first kiss. I kiss back.

Butterflies erupted as it got heated with every second our mouths were moving together. It was cliché, but amazing. Never in a million years would I have thought I'd be in this exact moment.

We pull away, and he looks at me with a grin spread across his face.
"Wow, I am utterly in love with you," he breathes, and I smile.

"Ditto. So.. how about those pb&j sandwiches?" I question, and we both laugh.

"Way to ruin a romantic moment, Y/N."
