Katie Mitchell *POV*

     I eyed the text he sent me saying he was on his way. I had called him handsome. Why had I done that? I too often regretted words I spoke, and though what I had said was no lie, Shawn and I had grown apart over the past year to an extent that assured that he would never reciprocate my feelings toward him. Of course I had to make a fool of myself by that comment.

      "Hey, handsome."

      "You talking to me?" the tall, seventeen-year old, asked, looking to affirm that no one was behind him. He smirked.

      "Who do you think, Shawn?" I smiled, tussling his hair affectionately. He reached for my hand, intertwining it with his own.

     "Where to, my lady?" He offered me a dorkish grin.

     "I don't have a preference. In my mind, it'll be more special if you choose where we go and surprise me," I said, looking at him. I could see he understood.

     "Alright, then climb in the car, and close your eyes."

     I looked at him curiously. "Okay..." I heard the engine starting, and when I was finally allowed to open my eyes, I saw a picnic laid out underneath a sycamore tree. The tree was lit with fairy lights, clearly strung by Shawn. My opinion? Perfect.

     He led me to the clearing where he laid a blanket. Together we gazed at the stars. I shivered as the night grew chilly. Shawn, being the gentleman he is, noticed and pulled his sweatshirt over my head. It smelled of his cologne, and I snuggled into it comfortably. Shawn looked at me, cementing the moment in his memory. I bit my lip, and watched as he began to lean in. I made no effort to stop him as he planted his lips on mine. I savored it. Shawn had seen to it that my first  kiss was perfect. But if you asked me what made it the most perfect... it was that it was with Shawn.

     *To those of you who are my readers, what is your idea of a dream date? I may feature this in a future chapter.*
