Chris' POV
It's finally time. I wipe my hands on my suit because they are sweating like crazy. I take three deep breaths and knock on Mel's apartment door. I shift the bouquet of white roses from hand to hand. I hear the door open and I look up and I gasp.
"What is something wrong?! Is there something on my face?!" Mel asks concerned.
"No Mel you look absolutely stunning and beautiful." I say trying not to stutter.
The dress hugged her body perfectly. She had the little crinkle on her forehead and I gave a small chuckle.
"What" she asked.
"Your crinkle is adorable." I say pointing at her forehead.
"Chris stop" she says laughing.
"Well my lady are you ready" I ask.
"I was born ready." Mel says.
Melissa's POV
He leads me to his range rover and we get in. Like a gentleman he hold my door open and I give him a kiss on the cheek. He blushes and I smile.
"Hey put on the blindfold everything tonight is a surprise"
I don't complain and i slip on the blindfold.
Chris turns on the music and we listen to Can't Have You by Shawn Mendes. Next thing I know I hear Chris singing along.

I can't write one song that's not about you
Can't drink without thinkin' about you
Is it too late to tell you that
Everything means nothing if I can't have you?
I'm in Toronto and I got this view
But I might as well be in a hotel room, yeah
It doesn't matter 'cause I'm so consumed
Spending all my nights reading texts from you
Oh, I'm good at keepin' my distance
I know that you're the feelin' I'm missing
You know that I hate to admit it
But everything means nothin' if I can't have you
I can't write one song that's not about you
Can't drink without thinkin' about you
Is it too late to tell you that
Everything means nothing if I can't have you?
I can't write one song that's not about you
Can't drink without thinkin' about you
Is it too late to tell you that
Everything means nothing if I can't have you?
I'm so sorry that my timing's off
But I can't move on if we're still gonna talk
Is it wrong for me to not want half?
I want all of you, all the strings attached
Oh, I'm good at keepin' my distance
I know that you're the feelin' I'm missing
You know that I hate to admit it
But everything means nothin' if I can't have you
I can't write one song that's not about you
Can't drink without thinkin' about you
Is it too late to tell you that
Everything means nothing if I can't have you?
I can't write one song that's not about you
Can't drink without thinkin' about you
Is it too late to tell you that
Everything means nothing if I can't have you?
I'm trying to move on
Forget you, but I hold on
Everything means nothing
Everything means nothing, babe
I'm trying to move on
Forget you, but I hold on
Everything means nothing if I can't have you, no
I can't write one song that's not about you
Can't drink without thinkin' about you
Is it too late to tell you that
Everything means nothing if I can't have you?
I can't write one song that's not about you
Can't drink without thinkin' about you
Is it too late to tell you that
Everything means nothing if I can't have you?

He finishes and I smile and clap.
"Hey you will not say a word Mel." He says.
I laugh "Okay Mister Shawn Mendes."

Several minutes later the car comes to a halt.
My door opens and I feel Chris' hands grab mine and he guides me out of his car. We walk for a bit and he turns me around and slowly removes my blindfold. I see a beautiful picnic. Lights are strung from tree to tree and there is an amazing view of a lake. It's perfect.
"Wow Chris... this is amazing" I say.
"Anything for you Mel." He says.
We sit down on the checkered red and white blanket and Chris pulls out food from the picnic basket.

I watch as he pulls out Italian food which is my personal favorite. 

"So Mel traditional spaghetti with meatballs or a margarita pizza?" Chris asks.

"Well spaghetti sounds good but every stereotypical first date is the lady and the tramp stuff and I cannot make it that easy on you, so the pizza. We are going to be that one coup... pair of people who are going to be different." I say.

He opens a box of fresh and warm pizza and wine. He pours the glasses of wine and we eat and drink in a comfortable silence. It was never awkward. After dinner we laid under the stars looking at the night sky. It was cold so I snuggled up into Chris' side. He wrapped his arm around me and I gave him a kiss on the cheek. 

"Melissa I really like and care about you... I hope we can have a great future together." Chris says.

"I think I am ready." I say and he gives me a questioning look.

"Oh sorry I mean to move on." I say blushing because I knew what he was most likely thinking. I softly mumble maybe one day I will be ready for that.

He turns to face me. He slips his hands into mine and intertwines our fingers so that our hands are locked together. He looks into my eyes and I look into to his stormy grey eyes as the moonlight reflects off them I can see a spark in his eyes.

"Well then Melissa Benoist will you do me the honor of being my girlfriend?" He asks.

"No." I say. He lets go of my hands and goes to stand up. I pull him back to me on the ground.

"Chris I am just kidding I would love to be your girlfriend and you to be my boyfriend." I say cupping the sides of his face with my hands.

"Oh god Mel you scared me I thought I was being rejected." He says.

"Never." I say slowly leaning in to kiss him. Our lips meet and immediately lock. We kiss with passion until we both run out of air.

"Well we better get going its very late and I promised Farley to bring you home before midnight and its eleven." Chris says making me laugh.

We get into the car and we drive back to my apartment. Chris places his hand on the console and I grab it in mine. I listen to the music softly playing in the background and slowly drift off to sleep. I dream about Chris and what a great guy he is. 

 Chris' POV

I turned to look at Mel. She was peacefully asleep. I stopped at the red light we were almost at her apartment. The light turned green and I pressed the gas. Then everything went in slow motion. Crossing the intersection I heard a loud horn honking and I look to the passenger side and I watch as a large truck rams into the side of my car. I watch as glass shatters and the world around me goes spinning. I see Melissa hit the dash and everything goes dark.

A/N

I apologize this is not one of my best chapters I just feel awful for not updating in forever. This chapter was very rushed I hope it was not too bad. Also sorry for this cliffhanger but you all know that neither of these two characters can die or where will the fanfic go. Sorry this chapter is so bad and short.
