*Lili's POV*

Me and Cole have been dating for about 5 months and they have been some amazing months. Recently, he's been kind of...well...off. I mean, he's been coming home late (to our shared apartment in Vancouver) and he's been being extremely secretive with his phone. I've believed for these past few months that he loves me and he only loves me but I've been starting to get worried. Maybe he's cheating on me, it honestly would explain the late nights and secrecy.

I'm sat on our couch in our apartment and it's currently 2:00 in the morning. He left at 8:00 pm so he's been gone for 6 hours. I've tried calling him multiple times but it just keeps going to voicemail.

Suddenly, I heard our door open and footsteps getting closer to me.

"Hey Lils, what're you doing up so late?" He walks over and sits beside me on the couch.

"Oh, was just waiting for you to finally get home." I refuse to make eye contact with him.

"Lili, I'm sorry, I just got caught up with work and..." He tries to explain but I cut him off.

"Caught up with work? Really? You actually expect me to believe that?" I scoff.

"Well yeah because...It's the truth, Lili...what else would I be doing?" He looks at me.

"A-are you cheating on m-me?" My voice cracks as tears come to my eyes. "Have you found someone prettier? Slimmer? Funnier? Someone who makes you happier?" He looks at me with hurt, probably wondering how I could think he would do such a thing.

"Lili...it would be impossible for me to find someone prettier, funnier or someone who makes me happier and...I don't care about your body shape because no matter how you look, you're so beyond gorgeous. I would never ever leave you like that Lili." He grabs my hand that is resting on my knee.

I sigh. "I'm sorry Cole...I'm such an idiot for thinking you would ever do that."

"You're not an idiot, you're just protective, which is cute." He smiles at me and I smile back at him.

He sits back on the couch and I rest my head against his chest.

"So...what's with all the late nights and secret phone calls?" I ask.

"It's a surprise."

I look up at him.

"For me?" I ask and he nods.

I smile and lay my head back on his chest.

"I think you'll like it too." He says.

I look up at him again.

"When do I get this surprise?" I ask.

"Tomorrow."

I smile and lean up then peck his lips, he then kisses my head then we both fall asleep on the couch.

*Next Day*

I wake up to being alone on the couch but hear some sizzling coming from the kitchen. I look up to see Cole making eggs and bacon but he seems to be failing because he burns himself a little.

"Agh shit." He whisper-yells, probably trying not to wake me even though I'm awake.

I get up and walk over to him.

"Need some help?" I ask.

"Ugh, did I wake you?"

"No, suppose I was just cold because no one was with me." I laugh a bit.

"Well, I kinda do need some help." He looks at me.

I look into the pan and see that he's made a mess of both the eggs and the bacon.

"We're gonna need to try again." I pick up the pan and empty it's contents before placing it back on the stove and cracking two eggs into it.

I then grab another pan and place some bacon strips into it.

"Oh...you can't just use one pan for both?" He asks.

"Well no because it will turn out a mess, like yours did." I give him a look and he sticks his tongue out at me and makes me giggle a small bit.

"I was meant to be making you some breakfast, not the other way around." He says, leaning on the island in the kitchen.

"Well I think I'd have to remake it anyway, considering how it turned out." I smirk to myself, keeping an eye on the bacon and eggs.

"You're so rude." He says with a playfully annoyed tone.

I turn his direction and walk up to him.

"Just kidding." He said and made me smile.

"I know, Cole." I laugh a little.

He grabs hold of my waist to keep me held in front of him. I reach my arms around his neck and pull him into a kiss.

"I love you." He says.

"I love you too." I begin. "But no more secrets, even if it's a surprise...just tell me that you have a surprise for me."

"Okay, no more secrets." He says and sticks out his pinky finger and I latch mine with his.
