Kayla-

Why does my life have to be so fucked up? My mom died. My dad raped me and is now in prison. Now I have new parents. I have to go to a new school where I have zero friends, besides Nash. And now I'm being bullied and the whole school thinks I'm a freak. How could life get any worse?

I'm so grateful that it's Saturday today and I don't have school. I just woke up and now I check my phone. I have a text from Nash.

"Big Booty Nash: Hey, I'm ungrounded!!"

"Me: That's good(: When do u get to come back to school?"

"Big Booty Nash: Monday bae(:"

"Me: Yay(:"

"Big Booty Nash: Soo..u doing anything today?"

"Me: Nope."

"Big Booty Nash: Get ready and come over(;"

I put on a black sweater, skinny jeans and my mint green vans. I do my usual makeup and then walk over to Nash's.

Nash-

I have a whole day planned out for Kayla and I. As soon as she gets here, we'll leave to go out for a nice breakfast together. Then, I'm taking her to the carnival to ride some rides and play games. When it's dark, I'm taking her to the beach and that's where I'm going to ask her to be my girlfriend. Hopefully this day is perfect and she says yes.

About 25 minutes after I texted her, I hear a knock at the door.

"I'll get it!" I yell to my mom. I open the door and there's Kayla. She's gorgeous.

"Come on in." I smile at her and try to not be awkward.

"So? Why did you call me over?" She asks me.

"I just want to hangout." I smile.

"Okay." she smiles back at me. "So what are we doing?"

"You'll see."

Kayla-

I follow Nash to his car and we both get in. I'll admit it, I have a pretty big crush on Nash, but I don't want to ruin our friendship. He's my only friend and I don't know what I would do without him.

We drive down the road and pull into the parking lot of an iHop. I guess we're going out to breakfast. I smile at the thought.

"Do you like iHop?" he asks me before we get out of the car.

"It's my favorite." I tell him while smiling.

We walk in and I sit down on the waiting bench. Nash tells the waiters that we need a table for two.

"Your name?" The young waiter asks him.

"For Grier please."

"Oh my god! You're the vine guy!!" She says, shocked.

What the hell? Vine guy? Am I missing something?

"Can you please just get me a table?" he says to her sternly.

"Yeah. Sorry."

Nash comes over and sits by me. He looks at me, waiting for me to say something. I do, "What was that about?" I ask him.

"I don't even know." I have a feeling he's lying, but I don't want to ruin our day, so I ignore it.

In a couple minutes, we have our table and sit across from each other. I look through the menu and decide on chocolate chip pancakes.

"What are you ordering?" Nash asks me.

"Chocolate chip pancakes. They're my favorite." I smile at him, "What about you?"

"I think I'll get the chocolate chip pancakes also." he smiles at me. His smile drives me crazy. Those bubblegum pink lips against those perfect white teeth..oh my god.

Nash waves a hand in front of my face, "Helloooo? Earth to Kayla?" He giggles.

I start laughing too. He makes me so happy. The happiest that I've been in a very long time.

"You make me so happy, Nash." I smile so wide that it almost hurts.

"I'm glad. You make me really happy, too."

Nash-

I make her happy. That's good I guess. We eat our chocolate chip pancakes and make small conversation. I pay the bill and we leave and get in the car.

"Where are we going now?" Kayla asks me curiously.

"The carnival." I smile at her.

"Yay!!" She seems excited. I giggle. We drive down the street to the carnival and I buy tickets for the rides.

"What do you wanna ride first?" I ask her.

"Umm..how about that one?" She points to the most intense ride here. Wow. That girl has guts. I'm even a little scared.

"Yeahh that one looks sick." I say amazed.

-----

Kayla-

We spend all of our day at the carnival. We ride rides, get lunch, play games and more rides. I check the time and it's 7:30. It's starting to get dark.

As soon as I realize this, Nash suggests that we should go to the beach. That sounds like a really nice idea actually.

We leave the carnival and drive to the beach in the dark. Nash parks the car and we get out.

"We're here!" He says goofily. I laugh at him.

We walk down to the beach holding hands. Today was perfect. I spent the whole day with Nash and he made me forget all about Harry.

Nash sits down on the shore and I sit next to him. We're still holding hands. I hear Nash clear his throat and I look at him. His gaze is fixed on me. Our eyes meet. His blue eyes captivate me and I get lost in them.

I'm brought back to reality when Nash speaks. "I want to ask you something, Kayla."

What could he want to ask me? "Ask away." I tell him.

"I..um.." he's struggling.

"You can ask me, Nash." I reassure him with a smile.

"Will you..be my girlfriend?"
