"parker, where are we going?" lennon asked as i pulled her by her hand.

"i already told you! it's a secret." i can almost see her rolling her eyes behind me.

"we've been walking around town for an hour"

"okay, that's defiantly an exaggeration. it's been ten minutes" i chuckle.

we finally get to our destination. i put my hands over her eyes.

"parker...what are you doing?" she whispers.

"just wait.." i lead her the rest of the way.

i uncover her eyes.

"parker, i love it." she wraps her small arms around me.

i made her a picnic by the river in our town.

"why did you do it?" she looks up at me.

"i did it for you." i look into her eyes.

"parker...i have something to tell you" she whispers.

"anything.." i respond.

"i am one hundred percent, completely, in love with you..." she holds her eye contact with me.

"i love you too..." i feel myself lean in.

all of a sudden i feel her hand on the back of my neck, pulling me in.

our lips connected for what seemed like one thousand years, and even then, it didn't last long enough.
