Hardin's Pov
I wake to the sound of pots and pans ringing through my ears, I sit up and take in my surroundings remembering im in Tessa's room.

I get out of her comfortable bed and walk down the hallway following Tessa and her mums voice

T: goodmorning
She smiles at me and i automatically smile back
H: morning ladies
C: are you hungry? ive made some bacon and eggs and im about to cut up some avocados for the toast, there's plenty considering Tessa refuses to eat any
I shoot Tessa a suspicious and confused look, Shes been acting quite strange lately,
T: mom *whines* i already told you i ate something before you woke up. im full *smiles*
H: what'd you eat?
Her smile begins to fade, I can tell she wasnt expecting me to ask that.
After seconds of silence she speaks
T: I made me some toast with peanut butter on it and an apple
C: oouu that sounds delicious, im glad your eating healthy
She smiles and looks down at her hands
T: Hardin, why dont you eat real quick, i need to talk to you about something
I cant help but to feel a little worried
H: alright, is everything fine?
C: *hisses* damn
T: are you alright mom?

Tessa walks over to her, and her back is facing us, she turns around and there's blood gushing out of her finger
T: hold on there's bandages in the bathroom
Tessa runs to the bathroom to get the bandages
leaving me and Carol
H: here let me help
I walk over to her and wrap her finger in a washcloth
C: thank you...
She smiles at me
C: im sorry, i forgot your name *laughs*
H: Hardin *smiles*
C: ah thats right, I see why my daughter likes you, your accent is very charming *smiles*
T: alright, all i found were these big bandages, but i think they'll work fine
C: thank you dear, i got it
She wraps her finger in the bandage
C: *sighs* im just gonna go lay down for a little bit, ive been standing in this kitchen all morning *laughs* eat up Hardin before the food gets too cold
H: yes, thank you by the way for making breakfast
she walks into the living room and lays down in the recliner

I eat the delicious breakfast Carol made while me and tessa were talking about random things like dream jobs, fears, tv shows etc

Were now laying in Tessa's bed and she has her head resting on the pillow next to mine
H: you said we need to talk?
T: yeah ive been thinking about what i said earlier, about taking things slow
H: okay
T: well ive decided, if things happen they happen
I smile at her and tilt my head
H: what does that mean exactly?
She laughs
T: it means that next time we get to carried away we dont have to stop
She leans into me and kisses my lips softly, I grab her face and deepen the kiss and we pull away
H: I wanna take you somewhere tonight
T: Oh? and where would that be?
H: Im not just gonna tell you then it wouldnt be a surprise
T: I see *giggles*
I hug her waist and she grabs her phone
I hear her giggle a couple of times and look up at her
T: there's these funny ass youtubers and they just go around doing these harmless jokes and you have got to watch them
She pats the spot next to her and i scoot up by her side, she puts the video in full screen and presses play

We cry laughing
H: these guys are idiots *laughs*
T: thats what makes them funny *giggles*
Were watching these guys who are drunk and just doing a bunch of stupid shit. Shes right though they're pretty funny and there pranks are even funnier

We spend the day watching YouTube, at some point Tessa's mum woke up and decided to clean the house up a little, sooner or later the sun starts to set and this is the perfect time to take her to the suprise place
T: how should i dress?
H: however you want *smiles*
T: says the same guy who brought me to a fancy ass restaurant while i was dressed in barely a t-shirt and baggy ass pants *laughs*
H: you got me there, just wear something comfortable, you'll look good in anything
She pecks me on the lips and grabs her outfit out of her dresser

T: fine hand me the aux
I grab the aux from the console and hook it up to the radio for her

15 minutes later

H:we're here
T: wow.. did you find this place on the way to McDonald's too? *laughs*
H: *chuckles* no, ive actually known about this place for a while i like to come here to think and to even just enjoy the view.
I took her to a hill that overlooks the whole town.
I look at her, fond of her admiration of the view, she looks at me and i walk closer to her
H: you are so beautiful
She blushes and looks down, and i pick her head back up and look into her eyes
H: I mean it, I brought you here to ask you if you wanted to be my girlfriend
Her eyes widen and she smiles
H: is that a yes?
She stands on her tiptoes and kisses me passionately
T: does that answer your question
H: i dont know, try again
She giggles and reconnects our lips, It gets heated pretty quickly and she pulls away
T: I want you now
