The second day of camp was now coming to an end, all the campers were now in their cabins. The counsellors were all heading back to their cabins too as Tommy grabbed Quinn's hand pulling her back.

"Tommy, what are you doing?" She whispered as she watched Cindy go into their cabin.

"I want to spent more time with you." He whispered back causing Quinn to smile back.

"I can ask Kurt to let us run colour wars together next week?" She suggested in her usual sweet tone.

"That's a good idea, but let's spend some time together now." Tommy told her, as he grabbed her by the waist and lifted her over his shoulder causing her to squeal.

"Tommy! Let me go!" She whisper-shouted, not wanting to draw any attention to them.

"Quinn, be quiet. But you shouldn't be complaining to be honest, you get better view of my ass." He told her and Quinn being laughing as Tommy carried her through the woods.

Tommy carried her for a good five minutes until they reached a field with the hanging tree in the middle.
The hanging tree had a picnic blanket, surrounded by candles and there stood Athena with a proud smile on her face.

Tommy placed Quinn down, and looked down at his girlfriend.

"Athena told me to come here and I was kinda scared to come here alone. I didn't want to get pranked, again." Tommy told her and Quinn let out a small laugh as she shook her head. She had to admit that Tommy was scared of his sister at times.

"Well it doesn't look like a prank to me." Quinn assured him as she held her hand out to him. He soon took it and the couple walked towards the hanging tree where Athena stood with her hands on her hips.

"Good evening, your date shall commence." Athena sang, and then scurried off into the woods causing Quinn to burst out laughing.

"She's ridiculous." Tommy groaned as Quinn sat down on the picnic blanket.

"It looks like she got bored. Aurora isn't here yet and she wants to get Ziggy and her together so badly." Quinn told him as she carefully opened up the picnic basket only for confetti to come out.

Tommy immediately began laughing as Quinn began to spit confetti out of her mouth.

"Oh, you think this is funny mister?" Quinn asked as she grabbed the cake inside the picnic basket and shoved it in Tommy's face. The icing went all over his face causing Quinn to let out a giggle.

"Oh, you thought that was funny, misses?" Tommy asked in a mocking tone, as he leaned towards Quinn to kiss her only for her to back away.

"I don't want any icing on me thanks." She told him as she passed him some tissues so he could clean himself up.

Quinn looked up at the tree they were lay under, recognising it.

"Wow your sister really does have an eye for romantic settings, this is Sarah Fier's hanging tree." Quinn chuckled and Tommy sat up in alarm.

"Wait what-" Tommy began before he was cut off by Quinn laughing.

"Don't worry, it's seems like a nice setting for a date anyways. Look, some people have carved their initials on the tree." She pointed out as she looked at the initials 'H+S' with a heart round it. A 'C+A' was also there with a heart round it too.

"Do you think the C and A stand for Cindy and Alice?" Tommy asked and Quinn gasped and turned towards him.

"Oh they would make such a cute couple!" Quinn exclaimed, clapping her hands together in glee causing Tommy to roll his eyes.

"No wonder you and my sister get along so well, you're both matchmakers." He told her, as Quinn lay back on the picnic blanket. She had a sweet smile on her face looking up at the stars.

"We should carve our initials on here." Tommy suggested as he got out his pocket knife. Quinn nodded and soon the two were stood up, Tommy's hand over Quinn's as she held the pocket knife. She began carving in their initials, as Tommy helped her.

They both stepped back as Tommy wrapped his arms round Quinn's shoulder. 'Q+T' was carved into the tree with a crooked heart round it. Quinn looked up with a wide smile on her face as Tommy kissed her forehead. They both then lay back down on the picnic blanket, looking back up at the stars.

After a few seconds of silence, Quinn turned her head towards Tommy.

"Do you think in a past life, we would've been together?" She asked and Tommy wore a confused look on his face at the question. Quinn noticed this and began talking, "I was just thinking about soulmates and how most people say that they were with their true loves in a past life or something."

"I think we could of." He replied and Quinn smiled at him.

"Maybe we were together in Sarah Fier's time." Quinn suggested and Tommy let out a loud laugh.

"What do you think I'd be like back then?" Tommy asked her and she shrugged.

"Maybe you'd be one of the villagers, who went after Sarah Fier or something. A free spirit, who I was drawn to and we got married and lived a good life together. Either that or you'd be as mad a hatter." Quinn told him and Tommy laughed at the last part.

"What about me?" She asked, and Tommy thought for a minute or two.

"I think you'd want to break free from being just a wife and want to be more." Tommy began, "You'd probably be sleeping with me to be rebellious."

"Who said anything about me sleeping with you?" Quinn asked and Tommy wore a smirk on his face making him look similar to his little sister.

"Anyway, do you think we'll be together for a while?" Tommy asked as he began stroking the side of Quinn's head as she moved towards him.

"I think we might get married and have children." She told him and Tommy smiled. They both leaned in and kiss each other. Quinn smiled, she was used to Tommy's cold lips like winter at this point. She deepened the kiss as Tommy ran his hand through his hair.

Once the two pulled apart, they began to talk about their future.

"I think we could move out of Shadyside and got a run down manor and do it up together." Tommy suggested as his girlfriend nodded in agreement.

"Yes! We could share an office and have a playroom for the children." She added as Tommy smiled at the thought of having children with Quinn.

The two lay next to each other under the hanging tree. Their hands intertwined as they both drifted off into a deep sleep.
