"Where the fuck are we?" I asked as I got out of the car. We had reached a huge lot. It was sort of like a park but I couldn't tell because it was still foggy? What the fuck? "Um.. you'll see" he said. He was grinning now. He leaned down to give me a kiss on my lips. He held my face and kissed me hard. He let go after a few minutes, to take a gasp of air in. "You really are breathtaking" he said and chuckled. I smiled shyly. He seemed so.. playfull today. This was so unlike the side of him that I had seen. I began to get more curious about where he was taking me.

"Come on baby!" he said as he grabbed my arm and made me run along with him. I noticed that he was carrying a duffle bag. What was going on? 

The cool wind hit our faces and pierced our skin as we ran through the park. I felt his grip on my hand tighten. 

After running a bit further, we reached a giant depression in the ground.. it was a skateboarding arena. It was huge and awfully deep. Did he want ME.. to SKATEBOARD with him?!

"Um, Olivia, I want you to know something about me. It's very important to me and you are too so I thought you should know that I LOVE skateboarding." his adorable face lit up with glee.

"Zack, I hate to sound creepy.. but I know" I chuckled. "I thought so", he replied and continued "but I wanted you to know that.. well you're the first girl I've taken skateboarding with me. I wanted to um.. share this part of me with you because ,I love you. A lot." he said and he began to stare at his boots shyly. GOSH! He was so fucking cute! I always knew that Zack was amazing looking but since the time I've been with him, I've never felt this relaxed, relaxed enough to forget about the shit and just to admire how perfect he is. I lifted my hand upto his cheek and pulled his face up so that his greenish hazel eyes met my blue ones. "Zack, I'm honoured to go skateboarding with you. And I love you too." he gave me a huge goofy grin and I thrashed our lips together.  His lips felt close and soft against mine. He ran his hand through my hair and I tugged on his, pulling his lips closer to mine. He licked my lips and I parted my lips a bit to let his tongue in. His toungue roamed my mouth as I continued to pull him closer to me. I loved this feeling. It was just us. We were so together , yet alone. So cold yet warm.

He pulled away and gasped for air. I did the same and we smiled at each other. He bent down one last time and kissed the side of my neck making my belly flutter. "You ready babe?" he asked , looking at me eagerly. "Zack, I'm um.. scared. I'm not necassarily the most *balanced* person here, emotianally and physically." I said. He laughed and wraped his arms around me, so that I was facing him. "Come on Olivia. Try it for me. Pleaseee? There's nothing to be scared of. I'm here for you.. always." man he sold it to me with those words. I nodded reluctantly as I saw his hopeful smile turn into one of glee. His smile made me smile, it made me feel happy inside.

He kneeled down beside my legs and strapped on some knee pads and then some shoulder pads. He handed me a helmet too. I felt so weird and silly. I bet even kids didn't use this stuff. "Come on Zack, i don't need all this crap" I said. "Yes you fucking to! I don't wan anything to happen to you Olivia." he said. He looked so worried and I could understand where he was coming from so I just nodded. "Can I loose the silly helmet though.. pleaseeeeee?" I begged and pouted . "Okay babe" he replied and leaned in and pecked me on the lips.

Zack had just shown me some of his BRILLIANT moves on his skateboard. It was almost like he was flying and it was magnificent to watch. I just stood at the edge of the arena, admiring him, Zack Merrick, MY boyfriend. I still hadn't gotten adjusted tot he fact that he actually loved me.. I mean I never thought that anyone could. And that too someone as amazing as him? It might just be too good to be true.

"You're up next Livia!" he yelled from the pit in the arena. I shut my eyes and stepped on the board. My heart began to beat faster... Faster.. FASTER. I was truely scared. I was afraid of what would happen to me but in that very moment I realized that if Zack really loved me, I had nothing to be worried about at all. I took in a deep breath and put my foot on the bored. I gave it a gentle nudge forwards and let go. Milliseconds later, it was like I was floating. I was going so fast on the sides of the arena. I was heading straight towards the depression at the bottom, where Zack was standing. I was doing pretty well actually. I quite enjoyed the feeling and I could understand why Zack loved it soo much. I was fine until my board hit some pebble in it's way and I lost balance. I wobbled towards the centre of the arena. I should have worn that fucking helmet because I was pretty sure that I was going to crack my skull now. Just as I reached the centre, i clenched my eyes shut and prepared myself for the worst, for all the pain. Just when I thought I was about to hit the hard cemented floor, I felt Zack's arms grab me and he tumbled to the floor, with me lying on top of him. 

I was so glad that he was there. We panted for the next few seconds and then I spoke."I am so sorry Zack .. erm.. and thank you." "For what?" he replied with me still on his chest. "For saving me." I said. I know he must be thinking about the skateboarding incident only but he means so much more to me. He has saved me in so many other ways too, ways he didn't know of. My words were so much deeper than they seemed. i wish he knew. "Are you fucking nuts? I love you okay? Do you think I would just stand by and watch as your skull got crushed? Never baby, never." he replied and gently planted a kiss on my fore head. I really loved this man. I dug my lips onto his and forced my tongue into his mouth. I don't care what he thought! I had just had a huge realization.. that Zack really did love me.. and I really TRULY did love him.  I moved my mouth from his and rested my head on his chest. He wraped his arms around me and we just lay there for a while, as the first rays of the morning sun began to stream it's warmth over us. I grinned as I saw the light sparkle on his nose ring. He was the most perfect thing in my life , the only thing that made sense.
