Trusting You

Every man with his charm

"Tests are approaching! Oh God", Sam whined as she hussled and tussled on Jess's bed. I groaned as I tried to read a book but my eyes kept closing, "Ugh, don't remind me". Jess smirked at the both of us before going back to her book, "You guys are just lazy". "Says the bookworm", Sam retorted and we laughed. Then I finally drifted to sleep, the book that I was supposed to be reading long forgotten.

"Rue! Wake up", Jess pushed me against the wall. I groaned and grudgingly opened my eyes, "What?". "You're going out with Blake remember?", She said. I sprung out of my bed. Omg I forgot. What would I wear? "He said I should give you this and there's a note in it", she smiled and handed a bag to me. I stared confusedly as I collected the bag.

There was purple dress in it, very simple yet chic. I like it. Then I looked in the bag again and found a note.

Meet me at the new amusement park in Brodyway. When you get there call the number at the back, my battery's about to die.  
~B

We're doing amusement parks? And was I that late that I had to meet him there? Oh well.

I put on the purple dress, brushed my hair down and put on my sandals. I'm so excited.

I'm standing outside the amusement park and I can't find Blake anywhere. I remembered he said I should call the number at the back so I took out the note and called the number. I heard a phone ring behind me, I turned around to see a middle aged man waving at me. I walked up to him curiously, maybe he knows where Blake is.

"Hey, um I think I called your number. Actually my friend said to call this number when I get here. Do you know where he is?", I said. The man smiled at me before handing me a note. I collected it and read what it said,

Hey Rue. Sorry I'm running late. I had to pick up something. Why don't you get some ice-cream first at Mandy's ice-cream? I'll meet you there.
~B

Wow! Blake's never late. I thanked the man as I stuffed the note in my bag. I walked in and started searching for Mandy's ice-cream. It didn't take long to find it. I smiled and walked up to the lady. Once she noticed me, she smiled and gave me a cup of ice-cream with a note. I collected the note and the ice-cream and thanked the lady. I curiously asked, "How did you know it was me?". "He said you'd be in a purple dress with your hair down, then he added that I won't be able to miss you and I didn't", she widely smiled.

I sat down to lick the ice-cream and opened the note,

I'm really sorry for keeping you waiting. I know you can't wait to see my handsome face and I promise I'll be there soon. Did you like the ice-cream? I remembered your favourite. After the ice-cream, why don't you go ride with the horses? You'll love it.
~B

Whatever he's doing better be important. I look like a lost soul amongst all these people. I sighed as I walked over to the horse ride. My legs were starting to hurt from all the moving. I joined the line for the ride and when it was my turn, the operator guy smiled when he saw me and gave me a note. Another one?! I nodded and thanked him.

I sat on my horse and opened the note.

I hope you enjoy the ride! I'll be there when you come out.
~Blake

I smiled, excited to see him. So I closed my eyes and enjoyed the ride. The ride finally came to a stop. I hurriedly got down and started searching around for him. Then a little guy ran up to me and handed me a note smiling, "A really handsome guy said to give you this!". I smiled at him but internally groaned in frustration. The boy ran away and then I opened the note,

Last one, I promise. Now turn all the cards around according to how you got them.
~Blake

I stood puzzled as I brought out all the notes from my bag. I turned each one around according to how I got them. There were writings written at the back that I didn't notice before. They read, Would, You, Be, My

Huh

I looked up to see Blake standing further across me. He had a huge smile and a cardboard in his hands. The cardboard read, Girlfriend.

Would You Be My Girlfriend!

I smiled as I ran up to him and hugged him, "You're so smooth".

He smiled down at me and smirked, "So what's the answer Evans?". I noticed Jack standing further away, recording every movement.

I pretended to think about it while he just watched my face then I said, "Okay, you earned it".

He smiled and lifted me up spinning us around as I laughed loudly.

"He sent you several notes?", Jess asked with a goofy smile on her face. I smiled slightly and nodded as I ate my burritos, "Yeah. Using random people". "And then he held a cardboard with girlfriend written on it?", She asked again nudging me. "Yes Jess. I've said this story almost 5 times now", I groaned but smiled at the same time. "He's so cuteeeee", she cooed. Just then, Jace put his tray on the table and sat down. "How're you?", he turned and smiled at Jess but she just frowned and looked away from him. We watched the both of them with amusement. Jace looked at Sam and I as if silently asking, "What's up with her?". We just shrugged and shook our heads.

"What happened?!", He asked her. She frowned at him again, "You need to take lessons from Blake. He gave Rue cute notes, a nice ride and ice-cream before popping her the question but what did you do? You faked death and almost gave me a panic attack!", Her nose flared as she spoke. Then Jace widened his eyes in surprise, "Blake asked Rue out already? I told him I wanted to record it" he said with sad eyes. I smiled at him, "Jack already did".

Jess folded her arms and kept frowning at Jace, "Is that all you got from what I said?". He smiled and put his arm around her shoulder and pulled her close, "Every man with his charm babe". Then he pecked her on the cheek. She blushed profusely and everyone laughed at her.
