1 Alex

I was done. Done with school and all the stress that came with it. I was done. I ran out of the classroom and I'm trying hard not to start braking down in the hallway. Tears are streaming down my face but I didn't care. I wanted to get out. Get alway from everyone. I couldn't understand why people hated me. Why everyone hated me. I got to the bathroom and locked my self in a stall and started breaking down. I couldn't really breath I felt so much pain, but couldn't explain it. That's when I heard the bathroom door open. Someone came in. I heard the footsteps and I tried to be silent but I couldn't. My whimpers were probably loud enough for the whole school to hear. The mystery figure knocked on my stall.

"Are you alright?" The voice asked softly. I didn't want to let my guard down, so I just tried whimpering softer. "It's fine I'll just sit here." He says softer. He puts his hand under the door. "I'm Damien by the way." I look at the hand and slowly open the door. He looks at me with his soft brown eyes. "Hello." He says. I look at him and start breaking down about my day. I start crying about how everyone hated me and no one liked me and I couldn't do well in school. Damien hugged me and brought his cheek to the top of my head. "It's alright." He says to me. "Why are you here?" I say a little too harshly. "Because I heard a sexy voice crying and couldn't resist coming and checking in on him." Even in my shitty state I still blushed at the bit hugging me. "I know we can go somewhere that will make you feel better." He said with enthusiasm. "First what's your name?"

"Alex." I replied quickly. "Let's go."

He leads me to a parking lot in the middle of a park. "What, what are we doing here?"

"Put this on it's a surprise." He hands me a blindfold. "Are you trying to kill me?" I ask slightly worried. He lets out a chuckle. "Haha no never." I timidly place the blindfold on my eyes.

He leads me through this path making sure I don't trip over anything and injure my self. "How much longer." I ask slightly more impatient. "We've still got a ways to go. Talk to me what's your favourite film, novel, subject?" I respond. "Well Mr. Damien my favourite film is Doctor Strange, my favourite novel is 1984, and subject is probably writing. Loved the job interview." I say trying to add some humour. "Okay Mr. Quick-Wit what about music?"

"No, no you have to answer your own questions before I do." I say with slightly more confidence then before.

"Okay, my favourite film probably Big Hero Six, novel probably Sherlock Holmes, and subject Psychology."

"Okay what about music?" I ask realising I know nothing about him.

"I probably like anything Alternative and some Metal." He says thinking over each word. "Now answer your own question."

"Okay okay, I like Hip/Hop and sad pop."

"Wow such a softie, am I talking to Taylor Swift or Alex?" He says laughing.

"Shut up." I say my face turning red.

"You know you love me." He says

"I'm being blindfolded and led through a forest I'll be lucky if I'm not found dead tomorrow. Who doesn't love that."

"Exactly who doesn't." He says disregarding my sarcasm.

"No you're not supposed to do that." I whine

"Haha yeah watch out for the branch jump." He says I step slightly higher over whatever branch might've been there.

"Whats your favourite food?" I ask.

"Hmm I love a good burger and fries, you?"

"Pizza." I say my stomach grumbled in response.

"Seems like we should stop for pizza after this."

"Presuming I'm not found dead." I say still slightly worried.

"Yeah, yeah okay remove the blindfold." I remove it and I'm breathless I see the mountain in view and it's beautiful reflection over the water. It was chilly but not freezing. It was breathtaking and gorgeous. I loved it. I turned to Damien and hugged him. He smiled like an idiot. "Why'd you bring me here."

"Because you were sad and this always cheers me up." He said while smiling.

"It's amazing like you." I say realising what I said too late and blushing. He looked down and smiled at me. "Not more then you. Now do you want to get pizza we can come back here later?"

"Yesss can we go to MOD?"

"Sure I've never been."

"What it's like the best and only good pizza in the world." I say out of shock.

"Okay then lead the way." He says with a smile.

Once we got to MOD we ordered our pizzas and we were eating.

"You look cute." Damien said with confidence. I blushed and said "you too you know."

"Would you call this a date then?" He says. I stop chewing I've never had someone love me. Nonetheless take me on a date and hug me. The more I realised Damien was the only one who's had my back my whole life made me want him more.

"Can it." I say my eyes lighting up. He smiles at me.

"Of course." I smile back.

We finish our pizzas and head back to the mountain. Once we finally climb back up and get to the lake we sit on the ground and he cuddles me. I have my head on his chest while he wraps his arms around me. It's warmer now. Not just because I'm with him, but because the sun was also brighter.

"Thank you." I say

"I mean we just went on a date." He said smiling. "I should be thanking you."

I smile and look up at him.

"I love you."

"I love this view, haha no I love you obviously." He holds me up and we stand. He leans his face into me and pulls me close. Our lips touch. We hold closer. I kiss back. For a second we were in pure bliss. Then he pulls away with lust in his eyes. "How was that for a first date Alex?"
