"There she is." She says softly. I’ve been smiling so much today that seeing her makes me smile so big that my cheeks hurt. I walk closer to her and she does the same.

     "These are for you." She say handing me the rose and the last card. I smile up at her and smell the red rose.

     "Thank you." I tell her then read the back of the card.

      10 of Hearts: Everything!!!

     I look up at her and giggle.

     "Short but sweet, straight to the point." I say and she chuckles while taking me hand and walking me to her swing.

     "Allow me to explain." She says as we sit down. "spencer, I don’t know how someone could fall this hard or the fast for someone in just four weeks, but I have. In the last few weeks I’ve come to realize that I’ve fallen harder then I ever have before. This whole game with the cards I guess was just a way to show you everything that messes with my heart. I meant everything I said on the back of each one of those cards…" She stops and sighs before taking my hands in hers.

     "What I’m trying to say Spencer is that… I love you, I’m inlove with you. Or at least I know I’m falling." She says hold my gaze. I was about to say something but she cut me off.

     "I’m sorry, I don’t mean to scare you its just… I-" This time I cut her off. I plant my lips right on hers, she was taken back at first but quickly gave in. After a few seconds we pull apart. I look at her and she still has her eyes closed and she’s biting her bottom lip.

     "Ash.." I whisper, brushing my thumb over her chin, she slowly opens her eyes and looks at me softly.

     "I love you too." I tell her and she smiles.

     "Really?" She ask.

     "Yes really, I think I have for a while now. I just didn’t know if this was another high school crush, but its not. I’ve never felt this was before, and its not a little crush, its something bigger then that, its love." I tell her softly. She smiles her nose crinkle smile before meeting my lips for an intimate kiss. As the seconds pass the more depth is brought into the kiss. We finally break apart for air and rest out foreheads together.

     "Ash…" I whisper while tracing my finger over her jaw line.

     "Yeah Spence?" She ask.

     "Im ready." I tell her, she backs away to look into my eyes.

     "Are you sure?" She asks with concern. I smile and nod my head.

     "Yeah, I’m sure… I want you to be my first, I want to do this with you." I tell her. She smiles big and kisses me gently. When we pull away she takes my hand as we walk back into the house and go up to her bedroom.
