We've been driving for about 3 hours, but it's felt like an eternity. I'm pretty sure we're in the middle of nowhere, and if we keep going any longer, we'll be losing daylight.

"Here's the place, pull over there." she says, pointing to the empty patch of land in front of us.

We get out of the car and she takes my hand. We run through the woods, passing hundreds of trees in our path. It feels like a scene from the movie, us running into the woods like this. What feels like a couple miles later, we finally stop. We stop at the edge this cliff, overlooking another set of woods.

The sun sets far away, leaving the sky a pinkish-purplish color with an orange tint. It's beautiful. Y/n's holds on to my arm, putting her head on my shoulder. I lay my head against hers, taking in the view. I look at her out of the corner of my eye, seeing the last bit of sunlight glow on her face. She's gorgeous. She's enchanting. She's everything.

"So what do you think?" She asks, looking up at me with those lovely eyes of hers.

"It's beautiful." A warm smile appears on her face, "but not as beautiful as you." I whisper in her ear and kiss the top of her head. I interlock my hand in hers, "Come on, we should go before it gets late."

"You see, this is why my parents love you." She laughs, I laugh along.

"Truthfully, I'm just scared what'll happen with your dad if I bring you home late." We run back to the car, running away from the sunlight. We get back into the car, just staring at the woods ahead of us.

By the time we got to the house, her parents were already asleep. Luckily, Mrs. y/l/n left dinner in the fridge for us to eat whenever. Y/n opens up the fridge, heating up the lasagna in the microwave. She hands me a plate with hot lasagna on it, I take it from her, already taking a bite.

"So, how long will you be staying here?" She says, taking a bite of her food.

"Wow, already can't wait for me to leave?" I smirk, she nudges my shoulder.

"Noo, like I'm sure you have plans with your family for the holidays, right?" I put my fork down, looking at her curious expression.

"Yeah, I had plans. But, I thought, why not come here, to you, and spend our first Christmas and New Year together." her eyes water, a smile extends on her face.

"Really?"

"Yeah, really. And I'll be there for your Winter Formal, that Christmas parade you were telling me about on the phone last week, anywhere, I'll go with you."

"How did I get so lucky?" She leans in and gives me a quick kiss, I lightly kiss back.

"That's a question I ask myself everyday." We spent the rest of the night lost in the moment.

Last night was kinda blurry, but we made it. I woke up with Y/n at my side, asleep in my hoodie. I was still in the clothes I was in yesterday, so I took a quick shower in her bathroom.

I get out of the shower, putting a clean towel around my waist. I forgot to bring my clothes in the bathroom, so I walk out in search for them. Of course, with my luck Y/n woke up at the sound of the door opening. I can't believe I woke her up. I feel terrible. She's shaking out her hair, combing her hair with her fingers. She looks amazing. She yawns and stretches when I catch her eye. Oh crap, she's staring at me now. I have a towel on, it could've been way worst. Her mom could've walked in. Or worst, her dad.

She still stares at me, speechless. Her eyes lead to my abs, I don't know how to feel. An awkward silence settles between us.

"What? Like what you see?" I smirk, she breaks her contact. She throws a pillow at me, laughing.
