(Sophie's P.O.V)

I Know what you're thinking. "Sophie what the hell did you do that for?" Why for the whole "Just friends" thing. Well it may not make sense to you all, but he is obviously one of the hottest new Country Artists right now. And now you're probably confused am I right?

Well if he's absolutely down right famous, then that means he has alot of fans. Some fans that are very 'protective' over him. Of course I want to be more than friends! But I know that his fans will hate me. I mean what is there to even like about me? I'm just some plain boring girl that Hunter just so happened to run into. I really shouldn't be thinking so hard about this. I mean it was only 11 am and-

"Sophie!" Jesus Darla. Why do you have to be so loud? "Yes?" Darla was over because she's babysitting, or whatever you wanna call it, Kate. "Hunter's here. So get your butt down here!" I could basically picture her laughing from upstairs.

"Ok coming!"

I threw on some blue skinny jeans and my old Blink shirt. Then I slipped on my Keds and grabbed my bag. And my hair? Haha left it natural. I grabbed my phone and wallet on the way down and stuffed them in the bag. I made my way downstairs and I couldn't help but chuckle at the scene. Hunter had his hands in his front pockets and was looking down at his shoes while mummbling. Darla was obviously making Hunter feel uncomfortable. I rolled my eyes at her behavior.

I cleared my throat and all eyes were on me. "Uhm you ready?" Why does he always have to look so damn good every day? I mean could those jean's possibly be any tighter? Haha just kidding but like please could they? And don't even get me started on his shirt. I mean I don't understand how he can wear a plain blue vneck and make it look so good. I mentally scolded myself for getting to indepth with his attire. They're just clothes and he's just a person.

Except he's a famous person who can literally make any girl swoon. I nodded my head agreeing with my subconscious.

"Hello! Earth to Sophie!" And I was rudely awoken from my daydream by Darla. What were they talking about?

"Oh yeah sorry what?" Hunter looked at me then laughed. "Come on lets go." And with that he pulled my arm and led me towards his car.

"So where are we going?" I asked while fiddling with my shoelaces. "No no, it's a secret." he said while putting a finger up to his lips.

"That's mean." I said while sticking my tongue out then turning towards the window. "Ahh but that's why you love me." He turned to me and winked. Yeah, he wasn't wrong there. I really liked how he would always tease me about the smallest of things. Suddenly I felt my cheeks getting very warm. Hunter just chuckled, shook his head, and went back to focusing on the road.

It was always so comfortable driving with him. Have you ever had that feeling when you can't stand to be away from someone for too long? Even if it's to use the bathroom or to brush your teeth? You always want to do everything with them and just be with them all the time. You just love listening to their voice and can't help but have everything remind you of them?

Like when I go to the supermarket and see the papayas. It reminds me of a conversation we had once and Hunter had said as a little boy he grew up loving them. But one day he ate too many and threw up. He hasn't eaten one since then. I smiled imagining him as a little boy.

But anyways that's not the point. The point is that I do truly feel all of these things towards him. Only problem is that I'm pretty sure he doesn't feel the same way.

I sighed and continued looking out the window.

About 20 minutes passed and we pulled up to a little Diner. I absolutely love this. It looks so cute! "You like?" Hunter said opening my door and wiggling his eyebrows. "Haha yeah I love! It looks so adorable." He grabbed my hand and led me inside.

What I would do to just stay like this forever. We walked in and a girl, well I wouldn't call it that. More like a fake bimbo blonde. Oh boy. This shall be fun. "Why Hello there." she said batting her eyes at Hunter. 'Uh yeah table for two please." he said looking quite disgusted and uncomfortable.

She started walking and you could immediately tell that her skirt was two sizes too small. Bleghh. "What would you like to drink?" she said batting her eyes again. Oh gosh please stop. "I'll have a coffee, two creams and one sugar." She was biting her lip and bending down a little two low. "Uhh Soph?" She rolled her eyes in disgust. Wanna play like that? Fine.

"I'll have the same thing and while you're at it you may wanna change into something a bit more conservative and while you're at it wipe that gunk off your face. Goodbye." The look on her face was priceless and with that she walked away. I looked across the table to see Hunter in a fit of laughter. About 3 minutes after he regained himself, "I'm sorry. I just couldn't stand her." I sighed and more laughter from Hunter. "Are you kidding me! That was hilarious." and reached his hand over the table to give me a high five.

"Sophie, I have to tell you something." he said and grabbed my hand. I could tell he was nervous from the way he was shaking his leg. "Well what is it?" I smiled and rubbed his hand. He took in a deep breath and began to speak. "Sophie I-"

"And here's your coffee." Really? I hate when that happens. So darn annoying. Well atleast this time it was an older lady and not the annoying bimbo. Hunter looked down at his lap and sighed. "Oh yeah thank you." It was an awkward brunch if I must say. We made little conversation and didn't really make eye contact.

It was around 12:45 p.m when we walked out of the Diner. He grabbed my hand again and pulled me away from the car. A look of confusuion spread across my face. "Uhh?" he smiled and pulled me in the opposite direction. "There's a park around here that I wanted to check out."

The walk was quiet but comfortable? Soon we were aproaching a field and oh look! There is a park! "Come on!" he screamed and dragged me towards the swings. We had alot of fun. Well first Hunter got stuck in one of the slides and I had to pull his feet through so he could wiggle out. Then I got stuck in one of the baby swings and he had to lift me up out of it. The thing was it was stuck on my butt. Somehow he managed to hold down the seat and pull me up. I don't know how he did it, but he did it.

We were walking along the perimeter of the park right now. Just walking and thinking. "Hey Sophie." he said and held my arm to stop. What's he doing? "Remember when you said you wanted to just be friends?" Unfortunately I did but I wish I didn't.

"Yeah." He laughed once again and rubbed the back of his neck. "Well I need to tell you something." Where was he going with this?

"Hey it's ok," I grabbed his hand for comfort. "Go ahead. You can tell me anything. You know that right?"

With that he looked up at me. His blue eyes hit me with such force that I had to hold onto his forearm so I didn't fall over. He laughed at my action. "Ok well here it goes." he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "Sophie I-"

"Hunter! Hunter is that you?" I turned around to see a gorgeous looking girl. "Oh Hey Lauren!" Lauren. Who the hell is Lauren? Hunter never mentioned her name. I'm pretty sure they're not related either. I knew he wasn't gonna say it. For some reason a little part of me was hoping that he's tell me how he feels about us. I knew he wasn't gonna admit it. I'm not good enough for him. He cold do better. And it's as simple as that.

He was a couple yards away talking to this Lauren girl while I was just standing to the side kicking some rocks. Oh how nice. I pretended to look at my watch on my arm. Thing was I wasn't even wearing a watch.

"Oh look at the time." Both Hunter and Lauren looked over confused. "Yeah uh I just forgot I have to go," have to go what?

"Have to go what Soph?" Hunter asked. I said the first thing that came to mind.

"Bathe my turtle." I mentally facepalmed myself. Bathe my turtle? Is that the best you could do Soph?Confusion spread across both of their faces.

"Bathe your turtle? But you don't even have one." How would he know?

"Yeah I do, I got it a couple days ago. Ok well bye see you guys later." And started walking away as fast as I could. "Hopefully not." I muttered underneath my breath.
