i walk out of the airplane, i saw people running around, trying to get to their flight on time.

i smile at the thought they i actually came here. i agreed to this. it all happened in what feels like a heart beat.

"welcome to your new home."
tyler smiles while he looks down at me, he decided that he was going to carry all of the bags. i didn't agree to it but i had no choice.

"should we get out of here?"
i looked around.

"i don't see any food places around here and i wouldn't want you to have to carry all of our shit."
i start walking towards the doors.

tyler slowly makes his way to me as i head outside.

i could smell everything. i looked at the sky to see that it was a light blue, with no clouds. it was amazing.

"should we call a taxi?"
i ask tyler, already getting out my phone.

"yeah. that would be good."
he says.

after the taxi arrived, tyler put all the bags in the back and got into the taxi, sitting right next to me.

after i gave the taxi driver the address of the hotel, he asked us where we are from.

"ohio, in the united states."
i say with a smile.

"that's quite a ways away."
he said, looking straight ahead.

"yeah. it was a long flight but it was probably worth it."
i state.

"if you want, i could give you a pamphlet of stuff to do around here."
he looked at us from the small mirror.

"oh thank you. why appreciate it."
i take the pamphlet from him and look in it.

a zoo

an amusement park

a waterpark

an ice skating rink

and way more

once i came to the end of the pamphlet, we were at the hotel.

i payed the taxi driver his money. plus, a small tip.

"thanks again."
i say from outside the window.

"it's no problem. i hope you two the best."
he said as he started to drive away.

"off inside the hotel."
tyler states.

once we put everything in it's place, we decided that since t was still day, we should do something.

"what would you want to do?"
i ask him.

he looks inside the pamphlet.

"we could go to the ice rink?"
he questions.

"sure."
i start heading for the door.

once we got to the ice rink, we quickly rented our ice skates and went on to the ice.

"i don't think you know this yet, but i don't really know how to skate."
i say as we step onto the ice.

"really? why did you decide to come here then?"
he holds onto my hand tightly so i don't fall.

"i wanted to spend time with you."
i look down at the ice.

"we didn't have to do this. we could have done something else that you could actually do."
he smiles.

"but i wanted to do what you wanted to do."
i smile back.

i quickly lost balance and fell, bringing down tyler with me.

tyler laid on me as i started to blush.

he didn't get up, he just looked at me for a while.

"jenna joseph, i love you."
he said with a smile.

that really caught me off guard.

"i love you too, tyler joseph."
