After about 20 minutes we finally arrived at our destination. I still had the blindfold on so I had no idea where we were.
"Keep the blindfold on" Aaron instructed. He got out of the car and after a few seconds my side of the car was opened. He placed my hand in his and helped me out of the car. As we were walking I held my opposite hand out, waving it around me so I wouldn't fall.

"Your not gonna fall" he laughed "I got you" he whispered. We finally entered wherever we were and I could hear the chatter of people all around me. He then removed the blindfold and I did a double take at the scenery. The restaurant looked absolutely beautiful and had chandeliers dangling from the ceiling. There was mostly older people eating at the moment.

"Oh My God it's absolutely beautiful"
"I'm glad you like it" he said. We walked up to the counter where a waiter led us to our table. He looked to be around our age, maybe a little bit older.
"I'll be back with your menus" he said and walked off. Aaron pulled out my chair and pushed it back in for me once I was seated.

"In case I forgot to say you look absolutely stunning tonight" he said
"Don't worry you did" I laughed
The waiter finally came back with our menus.
"I'll be back in 5 minutes to get your order" he said. He then looked at me and gave me a smile. I felt it would be only polite to do the same so I did.

"So tell me something I don't know" Aaron said
"Something you don't know?" I asked
"Mhmmmm"
"Ok.." I laughed, "well let's see ummm, ohhh I promised myself at the start of senior year that I would never get involved with a boy romantically or date" I confessed
"Wow really! So what changed your mind?" He asked
"I dunno I guess the heart wants what the heart wants" I shrugged. "What about you? Tell me something I don't know"
"I thought you were a real bitch when I first met you" he said
"What?!!!" I laughed "Why?"
"I asked you for pen and you wouldn't give it to me" he said
"Ok but who the hell comes to school on the first day without any pens"
"This guy" he smiled pointing to himself.

Our date consisted of us getting to know each other more but mainly laughing. There was so many things that I found out about him, like how his dad was in LA doing work but wouldn't be back till two weeks before Christmas. I also discovered that he loves club orange like I do.

"Are you ready to go?" He asked
"Yeah I'm ready" I replied. He waved at the waiter to come.
"Can we have the cheque please?" Aaron asked him. The waiter nodded and walked away to get it for us.
"Here you go" the waiter said
"You can wait there I'll be paying by card" Aaron said pulling out his bank card from his wallet.
"You're not paying for all of it" I said. I began digging through my bag for my purse. "We will be splitting it" I smiled holding out the money.
"It's the first date and I'm paying for it. End of story. We can split the next one" he said and handed him the card
"So there's going to be more dates" I smirked
"This is the first of many, love"
Once his card was returned we left the restaurant.

"This was honestly the best date ever" I said
"That was only the first part love" he smiled. I whipped my head over in his direction and stared at him.
"The first part? There's more?" I asked shocked
"Yup and we are here" he said
I looked up and saw that we were at the beach.
"The beach?" I laughed
"Yup come on" he smiled

I took of my shoes and we began walking down the sand.
"It looks so cool out here at night" I said astonished by our surroundings. You could hear the gentle crashing of the waves and it was pitch black with stars scattered all over the sky.
"I one hundred percent agree" he said. He laid back on the sand looking up at the sky. I followed suit.

"Everything feels so perfect right now" I whispered
"Well I hope I don't screw it up now then" he said letting out a breath. He stood up, dusting the sand off  himself.

"Sierra ever since we crossed paths I can't stop thinking about you. You make me laugh and smile in a way no other girl has. When I see you, you always catch my attention and I want nothing more but to be with you. I find you extremely beautiful, smart and funny. From the amount of time we have spent together I always like being around you. I've liked you from the beginning and I certainly do now. I want to go on more and more dates with you. I want to take you to the cinema, go to the carnival and win you one of those stuffed animals. In case I didn't make it clear, I really like you and I would want nothing more than to call you my girl" he said.

At this point there was tears in my eyes. Nobody has ever said something like this to me not even Tyler.

"Sierra, will you be my girlfriend?"
"Y-Yes YESSSS!!!" I screamed. I jumped in his arms and hugged him tightly
"Yes of course I'll be your girlfriend" I cried. I removed my face from his neck kissed him passionately.

"God I don't know what I would have done if you would have said no" he laughed
"So you're my boyfriend now"
"And you're my girlfriend"
I smiled at him while shaking my head and hugged him again. I just wanted to live in this moment.
