Nate's POV
Falling asleep with Juliet in my arms is a normal thing lately and I don't think I'll ever feel normal any other way now. I barely got any sleep last night because Sammy and Heavenly 'had the tv on' practically all night but Juliet was out as soon as we laid down.

I wake up to see her huge eyes flutter open and stare into mine. I just laugh.

"What? Did I snore?"

"No haha actually yes but that's not what I was laughing at."

"Okayyy..." She says.

"You're beautiful." I kiss her soft lips and she kisses back lightly.

"Let's go do something." I suggest.

"Like what?" She asks.

"Let's go on a bike ride then go to lunch after."

"Okay babe." She kisses my forehead then gets out of bed and walks into the bathroom with some clothes.

Damn her ass looks nice. We both get ready then go about 20 minutes later and Sammy and Heavenly are making breakfast when we leave.

I know we invited everyone but I wanna take this opportunity to be alone with her for a few hours. We get on our mountain bikes and ride through the camp site and parking lot then past the pool then stop at a cafe for breakfast. Next we find the trail.

"Ready?" I ask.

"I'm not sure... the bike is a little too tall for me." She laughs.

"You'll be fine lil mama." I laugh back and we start down the trail.

"It's so pretty.." Juliet stares at the paths and trees.

The nature all around is really refreshing after being in Los Angeles for so long. I look over and she looks wide eyed at the animals running through the woods. It's cute how much she loves animals. Occasionally we have to stop for the cars where the bike trail meets the road. We cross the other side and there is three different directions to go. We come to a stop and she looks at me.

"Where do we go?"

"I don't think it really matters. Choose one."

"Okay... Um go to the right." She points to the farthest lane to the right and we follow it.

Almost 30 minutes later we come to another stop after laughing and telling stories and exchanging jokes. It sprinkles slightly and we realize we are lost.

"Nate... Do you know where you're going?"

"Of course I do."

She gives me a stern look.

"Okay maybe not..." I confess.

Juliet laughs and shakes her head. It begins to pour.

"Oh my God." She giggles causing me to smile. "It's raining!" She says hiding her phone away from the rain and in her backpack.

"Hmm I didn't even notice. Thanks for the incentive." I say with a sarcastic tone.

"Smart-ass." She says.

"Come on." I say.

I get off my bike and she does the same then pull it under the trees by the trail. We lay our bikes down in the leaves and sit down on my jacket.

"We're still getting wet..." She laughs and pulls off her cardigan placing it over our heads.

She leans her head on my shoulder and I rest my head on hers.

"So what should we do?" I ask laughing.

"About what?"

"You know getting lost." I say laughing.

"Nothing. I like being lost with you." She says not looking at me.

Her hair is drenched and so are our clothes. I push hair away from her face and make the best of the moment. When our lips collide it's a different shiver than the ones that the warm rain gives me.

After several seconds we breath and Juliet speaks up. "I love you so much Nathan."

"I love you so much more Juliet."

We sit for what seems like another half an hour and talk and the rain stops. It's the second time in my whole life I've ever experienced summer rain.

I thought maybe now would be the time to tell her my news but I decided against it. It's best to wait. We get on our bikes and try to find our way back to the little town and eventually do. It's about 12:00 when we get to town so we stop into Schat's, I know weird name, and get some lunch. Then we go to then Looney Bean because Juliet really wanted coffee.

"So what's on the agenda for tomorrow?" I ask curiously.

"Well I kinda blew off the plans we made last night but I was thinking some shopping." She says. "What do you want to do?"

"Well I was thinking we could go canoeing. And maybe we can get lost there too." We both laugh and she agrees.

Our last stop after coffee is the toy store. I guess they have a cool store in Mammoth with like really hard mind games and they have candy and stuff. I think it will be fun to look around.

I end up getting sone weird block puzzle thing that's super confusing and she gets one of those mermaids that grow in water. We both walk up to the checkout stand.

Juliet looks at my bag and laughs, "That's what your getting?"

I look at hers trying to make a point, "That's what you're getting?"

We laugh at each other's choices then go outside to our bike and ride back to camp. We make it back at about four but the squad isn't at camp so we turn on Netflix and cuddle. We decided on 50 First Dates.

This day has been so amazing I don't think I'm even going to be able to tell Juliet until we get back to Los Angeles. I don't want to ruin anything with her. I want to make her happy because I love her so much and I believe her when she says I love you to me.


A/N
So for some reason I feel like this chapter was weird cuz it is a different style than my other chapters but whatever. Sorry for the long wait but for some strange reason teachers at my school feel the need to cram in 69 assignments and 42 tests in the last two weeks of school. I'll be back for summer, I promise. Thanks for your patience. Don't forget to comment and vote.

Much love, Cass (:
