Why do we fall in love?

14. Date

So today is the day of my and Leah's date. To say I'm nervous is an understatement. All week Leah and I have been making eye contact and every time I get butterflies in my stomach.
I'm now at work, doing the last bit of paperwork, when someone knocks on the door. "Come in" I say and look who came in. "Hi" says Leah who has the same loving smile on her as always. "Are you busy?" Leah asks as she starts to walk into the room. "No, I'm just finishing up the paperwork" I tell her and she walks over to my desk where I'm sitting.

"I just wanted to check and I could pick you up at six?" Leah asks. "I'm fine and you remember where I live?" I ask her and Leah laughs before saying "I remember where you live, it's hard to forget" she says laughing. I growl and put my head in my hands , "you'll never forget it, will you?" I ask. "Nope", säger Leah.

"what should we do?" I ask, looking up at Leah. "It's for me to know and you not to," she tells me, and I want to know what we're going to do, so I know what I'm going to wear. "But how am I supposed to know what to wear?" I say, because maybe she will tell us what to do. "Wear comfortable but stylish clothes, but it's not that hard, you'll be stylish no matter what you wear." she says to me and I feel myself blushing. "Sounds good" I say trying not to show the effect she has on me. "See you tonight, darling" she says before going out. I finish the paperwork quickly to go home and fix myself.

When I got home, I ran around my house, trying to decide what to wear, how to dress, and if going on a date with Leah was even a good idea. I settled on a bit of makeup and slightly curly hair, I've never been a big person when it comes to makeup so yeah I was mostly comfortable with that.

When it comes to clothes, I was a little more unsure what to wear, sometimes I like to wear pants and sometimes a skirt. But it was the beginning of March so I took a pair of jeans a white sweater and my beige coat.

I go to get my phone when I hear someone knocking on the door."Okay you can do this" I say to myself before opening the door.

"Hi" says Leah and she looks so nice that I can hardly get anything out of my head. She has jeans, a white top and a black jacket. "hi" is all I can get out, and Leah giggles before she says "these are for you" she says and hands me light pink roses. remember favorites, how did she show it? "Thanks, how did you know it was my favorite?" I ask her as I go to the kitchen to put them in water and Leah follows me. "You just feel like a person who likes them" she says and smiles at me, and it's probably the cutest thing I've ever seen. "Well, you guessed right. shall we go?" I say and Leah nods.

Leah goes ahead of me and opens the door for me "what a gentlewomen" I say to Leah and she answers me with "you have to be kind to such a sweet woman" she says and gets into the driver's seat and starts driving.

"Can you tell me where we're going now?" I ask Leah for about the hundredth time. Leah laughs and says "for the last time you get to see" she says smiling at me, I want to know where we are going. "can you at least tell me if we'll be there soon?" I ask her. "We'll be there in five minutes" she says, and I'm satisfied I got something out of her and start looking out the window as music plays in the background.

After five minutes, Leh parks the car at a parking lot, there are no restaurants nearby, only nature. Which makes me surprised, most guys have only taken me to a rest ring and then wanted to take me home to theirs.

"Are you cumming?" Leah asks, holding out her hand. I take my hand in hers, which feels so right. "Leah what are we doing here?" I ask her as I follow her. "You'll see that when we've gone up that hill" she says and we start going up the hill.

As we crested the hill I gasped at the view. "Do you like it?" Leah asks a little nervously. "Leah.. I..I.. wow, you did all this?" I ask her, trying to take it all in. It was a blanket with a basket with a view of a tulip field. "I want to do something special for you" says Leah and I turn to her "it's probably the most special thing anyone has done to me" I say and look at Leah who smiles at me. "Shall we eat, I'm really hungry" says Leah and I nod. and then we go and sit on the blanket. Leah takes the basket and takes out sandwich, drinks, lots of fruit and cookies. And we start eating.
