We are back on the road after we went home and packed some of our clothes to go to where Daniel is taking me which is I couldn't know but 'I'll like it'. As promised, we are excused for the rest of friday because of some road trip and my mom gladly allowed us to take the trip since all we do last summer was a single swimming trip and the rest was just us staying in and either watch a movie or stuffed our faces with food.

I peered my head outside after I rolled down the window to see this beautiful sunset.

"Stick your head outside more then you'd be headless in a second. Do me a favor of saving me from constructing an explanation as to why I brought you home, decapitated." I just rolled my eyes at him as I obeyed.
The sky was a mix of orange and pink and when I looked at the mirror, it reflected against my face as I smile crept into my face. This is the view that I would dream of waking up at the morning. A view that I will set my house windows at and just look at it till it fades.

I felt a hand entwined my hand an looked at a grinning Seavey. "What?"

"I could enjoy this view for the rest of my life." He said as he rubbed circles on my hand.

"Well, to probably do that, you have to build a house right there to enjoy a view like that but I don't want you stealing my idea so I'll just let you visit my house." I explained looking at the sea line, enjoying the warmth of her hand.

"Yeah." He said as I looked at him, directly looking at me then I smiled at him.

Now we are headed to the hotel that I booked for us, all expenses are paid by Daniel of course and I know what you're thinking, 'She's only being friends with her because of money.', well I don't because I love him and I don't have the money to pay for it and he wouldn't even live on the sidewalk so he's stuck at paying.

After a long movie night, we're back on the road.

"Seavey, where are you going to take me?" I asked for the sixth time.

"I already told you for like a hundred times that don't worry because you'll like it. Leave it to your best friend to take you on a proper date." He assured and what?! A date?! My confused look gave it all as he laughed his face off.

"Don't worry, he couldn't give you a proper date so I'll just do it for you." He explained and I smiled at him. Where did I found this man and why am I so lucky to have him? I don't deserve him.

"Stop ogling at me or else I'll really date you." He joked.

"I'm not. And I don't want to date you." I said and clearly he's hurt by my remark. "Nooo! Don't be sad. I don't want to date you became it will jeopardize our friendship if something happened and I don't deserve you."

"What did I say? You deserve everything and I might not be everything but you deserve to be treated right." He explained. Why can't it be Daniel instead, the one that I'm head over heels on? Why do I fall for assholes when a decent man is right in front of me? Stop Dream, he's your best friend.

What side are you on conscience? You didn't want Zach and now Daniel? I'm confused.

"You're doing it again." Daniel woke me from my trancea and I didn't realise that I'm really looking at him. "Stop ogling at me."

I slapped his arm playfully. "Here we are." He said as we entered a zoo. A zoo? "I might've taken what you said when we were in 5th grade that your ideal date was on a zoo." He said as he scrathed the back of his head when he felt shy or nervous.

"Wow!" I said after we pulled and exited the car. "This is amazing. I love you so much!" I said as I jumped onto him and hugged him tightly.

"Daniel, 1. Zasshole, -7." I laughed at his remark as he let me down.
