Today is mine and Finn's first official date since I broke up with Noah. We decided to just go skating around Vancouver cause why not.

"Come on we need to goooo!" Finn yells from downstairs.

"IM COMING!" I yell back while tripping over my shoes.

"That's what she said!" I chuckle at his reference and go downstairs.

"Finally!" He says hugging me.

"Yea Yea lets go so I can finally learn how to skateboard!" I jump and run out the door only to run back in and slam the door.

"Forget your jacket?" I nod and smile.

He hands it to me and helps me get in it.

"Don't worry. One of these times you'll remember." He chuckles and opens the door.

We decided to go at night because it would be less busy and more fun. We walk hand in hand until we get to a park.

"Ready?" He asks setting the board down.

I smile and nod. He holds out his hand and helps me into the board.

"Ok now bend your knees a little. And then using your dominant foot, push off the ground softly." I do as he says and stumble a little.

He holds onto my arms so I don't fall.

"Ok now try again but push a little harder this time."

"I'm scared." I say looking at him.

"Hey I'm right here. You're not gonna get hurt. Ok?"

I smile and nod.

"Ok now push a little harder."

"I'm not giving birth you weirdo." I say laughing.

"Oh be quiet and push goofball." He laughs.

I smile and push a little harder causing me to squeal at the sudden movement. He holds onto my arms the entire time so I don't fall.

I accidentally hit the edge of the sidewalk causing me and him to go tumbling into the grass. I land on my back laughing and he lands on top of me laughing.

I look up into his eyes. His deep chocolate brown eyes. The eyes that I never got tired of looking into. He looks back into mine.

Slowly he leans in and kisses me softly. My hands travel to the sides of his face. His arms support him above me.

He pulls away after a few seconds and looks at me.

"You know I've been waiting until you were mine for years. And it was 100% most definitely worth the wait." He smiles.

"Aweee are you the Jim to my Pam? The salesman to my receptionist? The Michael to my Holly. The Dwight to my Angela. The Mose to my scarecrow?"

"No I'm the plop to your Erin duh!" I laugh.

"You do realize I'm gonna call you plop now right?"

"I can live with that."

"Or should I call you Sir Dolfinnius Wolfhardius." I say laughing.

"Oh my god I remember that embarrassing moment." He says sitting next to me as I sit up.

We laugh for a few minutes before dying down.

"When did you know?"

"When did I know what?"

"When did you know you were in love with me?" I turn towards him. He takes a deep breath and pauses.

"At the party at your house. When Joe got really drunk. Me you and Noah were in your guest bedroom. And Noah was stuck in the chair. You were laughing and smiling and just being you. You had never looked so beautiful. And that is the moment that I knew I wanted you for the rest of my life." He turns to see me tearing up.

"Awe don't cry." He wraps his arm around me.

"No I'm ok I just... I can't believe you knew for that long. And waited this long for me. I mean you broke up with me cause I was still in love with Noah. That must have broke you."

"I have been through worse. Almost losing you, what 3 times? I- I felt like every time was my fault. That I wasn't doing enough."

"Finn, I don't blame you for any of those times. Each one of those times it was someone else's fault. Not yours. Remember that."

He looks down and wipes a tear that had fell.

"So when did you know?"

"Um when I woke up in the hospital the last time. And you laid next to me. When we woke up after falling asleep and just really looking at you. It just clicked. I knew then that I didn't love Noah as much as I thought I did. And then at your house. After you kissed me. That's when I definitively knew you were the one I wanted."

"I'm that irresistible huh?" I laugh and lean into him.

"Yes you are Wolfhard. Yes you are."
