I wake up to my phone buzzing on my night stand and I groggily wake up and push the snooze button. It seems like two second before it starts beeping loudly all over again. I groan and hoist myself up out of bed. While I'm getting ready I hear tapping on my window. I quickly finish putting my hair up and look through the window only to get startled by the face of Josh sitting there. I open the window and say,

"What the hell are you doing here?! If my parents caught you they'd-" he puts his hand over my mouth shutting me up and says,

"There's a huge Halloween party tonight at Chris's and I wanted you to come with me." He says in a hushed tone.

"Ok, but don't we have school today?" I say to him.

"Yeah, but I wanted to take you somewhere more fun." He says with a smirk.

"Ok... but I have to get ready first. Come in and I'll be ready in a bit." I say grabbing his hand, pulling him through the window. He waits patiently sitting on the edge of my bed, looking at my wall full of pictures. I go into my closet and shut the door, putting a cute sweater on with some ripped jeans and my hair in a messy bun. I come out and Josh looks at me with awe.

"You look.... beautiful!" He says gulping loudly and then scratching his neck nervously. I laugh a bit looking down at my socks, then realize I didn't have any shoes on. I stomp into my closet and put some brown Ugg boots on then come out once again pulling Josh out my door and quietly down the stairs. I quickly write a note saying, "the bus came early today." With a heart on the bottom. I stuck on the fridge and Josh drags me outside to his new pickup. I look at it in awe and hop onto the nerf bars before I can even get into the car. He gets in the car, gives me a quick kiss, and we get on the road going off into the country. I had no idea where we were going, but I was with Josh. And that's all that mattered.

I wake up with my head on Josh's arm and he says, 

"We're here."

I groggily ask, "why did it take us so long to get here?"

"We're in Arizona for this really cool corn maze and hay ride that I booked for us!" He says with a huge grin on his face.

I look up and see a huge farm with a corn maze, a hay ride, a haunted house, and even some rides. I rub my eyes just to make sure I wasn't dreaming and I feel a warm hand link with mine and pull me out of the truck. I hop out into Josh's arms and he puts me down and holds my hand as we go to the entrance. We both get out hands stamped with little pumpkins and the first thing I wanted to go to was the hay ride.

We get onto the huge trailer and sit on a hay bail. I feel a sudden jerk from the tractor as it heaves is through a corn patch. Josh picks a corn off of a stem and hands it to me as I chuck it off the side of the trailer. He seems offended for a bit, but then smiles and he points to a pumpkin patch we were now entering.

When we are far enough into the pumpkin patch, the tractor stops and the driver opens the trailer door to let us out. Josh goes down first then grabs my hand to help me down the steps. We walk through the pumpkin patch looking at al the different sized pumpkins that I would love to take with me. Josh looks around and spots this little one. He picks it up and says, "we should totally take this one.". I laugh and take it from him saying, "this one's perfect."

The driver let's us back into the trailer and we head back to the main farm area. He then lets us out and we head toward some of the food trucks. He gets me a hot dog and himself a hamburger the size of his face I laugh at him and we enjoy our meals on the little bench we found, with our little pumpkin sitting right next to us.when we finish our food, Josh drags me over to the haunted house. We get to the entrance and I tell josh that I'm really not good with scary things. He just smiles at me and we are let into the haunted house before I could protest. I get scared left and right. I lost Josh. I keep walking and I turn a corner, then see Josh running towards me and he picks me up wedding style then showers me in kisses. I push myself off of him and push him away saying, "DON'T EVEN DO THAT TO ME AGAIN!" He says, "aww, but I like to shower you with kisses." With a frown on his face. "I love t when you do that! BUT I HATE SCARY THINGS!" I scream as we walk out of the haunted house and back to the car.

I get in the car and we start to head back home, with my head on his arm once again.
