ELLIE'S EYES FLUTTERS OPEN AS SHE HEARD HER BEDROOM DOOR KNOCK. She groans in annoyance, since it was still weekend.

"I'm not here!" Ellie lazily yelled. She was in a nice position. It is shame to just make her go up and talk to the last person she wants to speak to. Her Dad.

"Nice try, kid. Wake up. There's a Ricky waiting for you." automatically she met his dad's eyes. Shocked at her expression.

"Are you serious?! "

🌼🌼🌼

"Hey, what brings you here?" the both of them sat at the swing set that she used to love. Ellie could still feel the morning breeze smashing her swollen eyes and just woke up face.

"I just wanted to see you."

"Huh? Seriously you couldn't let that feeling of you for me." Ellie jokes making a strategy to cover her face from Ricky. Never in her life was she conscious of her face until now.

Because Ricky was the type of guy whose that extremely cute that even though he just woke up in the morning he would still look gorgeous.

Ricky laughed at what she said and noticed that Ellie was in a position wherein she was leaning forward, her elbow on laying on her knees. And her hands covering her face that was facing down.

"What--What are you doing?"

"N-Nothing." Ellie shooed her head and sighed.

Ricky made a gesture making Ellie react frantically, making her almost fall off the swing. Fortunately, she felt secure arms around her preventing her to feel the hard ground.

"Tha-Thanks, Ricky."

"You're welcome." Ellie was blushing furiously which Ricky find cute. He couldn't help but to chuckle.

"Wanna go out to the cinema?"

🌼🌼🌼

"Uhm... You should wear this." Ricky gave the blonde girl who he noticed was uncomfortable of what she's wearing. Ellie was wearing a black denim short skirt and white plain long sleeve.

Ellie smiled in appreciation and wrapped his jacket around her waist. They waited in line. Ricky holding all of their snacks.

Ellie remembered Miss Jenn, automatically she couldn't wait on Monday about their plan.

"Don't worry, we can bring Miss Jenn back." as if reading Ellie's thoughts.

"But it still bothers me, though..."

"We can do it. Alright?" then something clicked inside Ellie. Because of how Ricky smiled. It was a different smile from before. And the way he gaze at her. It was different.

Ellie quickly gazes away when she felt Ricky's head leaning towards her. Making Ricky's brow furrowed and feeling a bit disappointed. Before Ellie could explain Ricky held her hand and drag her inside the cinema.

🌼🌼🌼

"This is the most exciting part."

"Ssshhh."

"Dont you wanna know what happens next?" Ricky whispered. But Ellie just covered her ears cutely and focused on the screen.

" I'm so glad you agreed on watching a movie with me. I missed watching the cinema."

"When Nini and I were still together, we couldn't be able to watch a movie." Ellie asked.

"Because she couldn't handle the coldness and smell of the cinema. I dunno. It was one of her uniqueness, though."

"Well, that's a bit disappointing..." that's all Ellie could say. She don't know how to respond about what he just said.

"Uhuh...but then again. I'm glad that you're with me. Watching a movie in the cinema with my girlfriend is one of my list." luckily, the cinema was very dark. Because of how red Ellie would be if the lights were on.

"Then, what's on your list?" Ellie tries to change her voice. In a mocking tone. Making Ricky turn to her.

"It's a ten list." making Ellie more interested about the topic.

" It's a secret, though."

"Come on, just one!" Ellie couldnt help to raise her voice. Making everyone to sshh them down. Ellie and Ricky apologized while giggling.

"Just one." Ellie whispered.

"Fine. One of my list is to go at the Philippines." Elllie was a bit surprised about what is on Ricky's list. She couldnt help to ask why.

"It's one of my to go to when I grow up. I dunno maybe the thought of how beautiful the Philippines is. They have such delicious food and nice people there." Ellie couldn't help but just to nod.

"What about you?" she was taken aback When Ricky asked her about that. What was on her list, exactly. She asked herself.

"Uhm... I don't really have a list." for the very first time she realized how unplanned her life was. She didn't have a list. Or goals. Just go to college and get a decent to pay off all of her mom's debt. Ricky felt Ellie's conscious about the topic. Ricky held her hand, comforting.

" If you want... We can both make our very own list." Ellie stared for a moment at Ricky. She couldn't believe it. How could she meet such an amazing guy like Ricky, Ellie thought.

Just in time the movie just ended, Ellie pressed her lips on Ricky's cheeks. Ricky yelp in surprise.

" Thank you, Ricky. Really."

🌼🌼🌼

Ricky's lips felt Ellie's as they stopped by at a fast food chain. They walked hand in hand as they went inside.

"We're so PDA." Ellie giggled in his lips. Making him pull himself back smiling goofily.

"What's wrong with that?"

"Ricky Bowen I never thought you were that bold. When it comes to PDA."

"Well, you're my girlfriend. And I will kiss you" Ricky kissed her forehead.

"whenever," Ellie felt his lips on both of her cheeks.

"and wherever I want to" Ricky was about to lean closer to Ellie when someone interrupted them.

"Ellie James?" Ellie heard the familiar British deep voice. And her eyes met the only guy that she wanted to see.

Zenith Clare.

Her ex-crush.
