A Summer To Remember

Chapter 10 part 4
*the last one was supposed to be part 3*
 

They looked to each other and then back to me then shrugged. I rolled my eyes. They were so bad at lying. “Alright thanks. ” I said anyway.
It was starting to get dark out and I realized because of the party I never went to the lake. The party was starting to die down anyway so I made my escape without anyone seeing me. I walked through the woods and through the opening I could see a faint dim light. Usually at this time of night it was basically completely dark near the lake. I slowly made my way towards the light.
I finally made it to the opening and couldn’t believe what was in front of me.
There he was, standing at the edge of the lake. Next to him was a blanket with a single candle lit right in the middle. At the very edge of the blanket was a picnic basket, which I assumed was filled with food. I just stood there not able to say anything. He walked towards me and held out his hand. I took it without even thinking and followed behind him towards the blanket. I sat down across from him taking everything in.
The moon above me was shining brightly. The lake in front of me shimmering and glowing from the moonlight. Anthony across from me, the candle light carefully showing his features. His hazel eyes sparkled and his smile shined as he looked at me. “Do you like it?”
“Yes. This is amazing. ” I finally whispered.
“I did it all for you. ” “Thank you Anthony. So much. For everything. The whole day has been amazing because of you. You didn’t have to do all this you know?”
“But I did. Sarah ever since you got here my life has changed. When I saw you on that first day of camp my heart skipped a beat and I knew I had to get to know you. You’re perfect. You don’t take crap from anyone, no matter who it is. You’re
beautiful, funny, smart, talented, athletic, the list goes on forever. I’m so glad I was your counselor this summer. I don’t know what I would do if I wasn’t. I like you Sarah a lot,” he paused and looked to me with a hopeful smile, “And if you don’t like me back, then I just made a complete fool out of my self. ” He laughed a little at the end and looked down towards the blanket which made me smile. It was a little funny how nervous he was. All other times we’ve talked it never seemed like he was very nervous, it was always me who was a nervous wreck.
“Anthony, this is incredible. I don’t know how to thank you enough. Truth is, ever since you found me on the first night, here at the lake I couldn’t get you out of my mind. I just thought that because of our age difference it could never happen so I kept pushing it to the back of my mind. No matter how many times Rosie and Katie told me you liked me,” I said laughing, remembering all the time they accused him of it, and there were a lot, “But I do like you Anthony, a lot more than I ever thought I would. ” I said smiling. His head shot up and I could see him smiling.
He sighed a breath of relief and took hold of my hands. “That being said, Sarah will you be my girlfriend?”
“Well,” I looked to the sky acting like I was debating my answer. I looked back to him and could tell he was nervous about my answer. I smiled. “I wouldn’t have it any other way. ”
Next thing I knew I was being picked up and spun around in the air. The way his arms were around me made me feel safe, like nothing could ever hurt me while I was with him. The feeling I haven’t had since Kyle, and it never felt this great. I couldn’t stop smiling and I knew right when Katie and Rosie saw me they would know something was up. But of course I’ll tell them everything.
He finally put me down and I saw that he was smiling to. “So is that basket over there just for show or is there food in there? Because I’m starving .” I admitted.
“Yes there is food in there and I made it all myself. ”
“Do I really want to eat it then?”
“Hey! I’m a good cook!”
I laughed at his reaction. “I’m kidding! Of course it’ll be good. ” I pulled him down onto the blanket and started eating the delicious food he made for me.
After we ate dinner he pulled out a chocolate cupcake. He stuck a candle in it and lit it with a lighter. “Make a wish .” He whispered to me giving me the cupcake. “I don’t need to. I already have everything I could ever wish for. ” And with that I blew out the candle.
