Chapter 42

"Okay. What do you want me to pack for you?"

"A couple pairs of sweatpants, a pair of skinny jeans then whatever shirts you want for me."

"Okay."

He pecked my lips one last time before pulling away. I sighed, moving over to our dresser. I know we probably should have left already. I don't care though. I would rather be with him. We deserve some time together before we get there. I know we're not going to get very much of it once we're there.

I reached over intertwining our fingers as he drove. I felt him squeeze my hand, "Are you hungry, love?"

I laughed a little bit, "Are you really asking me that?"

He chuckled, "True. Is Chinese alright?"

"Yes. I don't care where we eat as long as we're together."

He smiled, squeezing my hand, "I'm not leaving your side this entire weekend."

I can't help but smile, moving closer to him. He's always so sweet to me. I really don't know how I got lucky enough to have him. I'm happy that he didn't treat me like those other girls. I know he used to hook up with girls. I don't know what made him want to be different with me but I'm not going to question it.

After a little bit he pulled into the parking lot of the Chinese restaurant. I smiled a little bit, squeezing his hand before getting out. He wrapped his arm around me as we walked inside. I moved a little closer to him as his arm tightened around me. I picked out a booth for us with him sitting next to me. He smiled, kissing my cheek as the waitress walked over. We ordered what we usually do before she walked off. He softly pecked my lips, "I can tell you were thinking on the way here. What was it about?"

I smiled a little bit, messing his hand, "Well I know you used to hook up before we got together. I know you didn't do it for months before we got together. I just don't get why you chose to be different with me."

He put a finger under my chin, tilting my head up so I'm looking at him. He softly pecked my lips, "The moment I saw you I just knew there was something different. I knew there was something there between us. All the feelings I got just made me know you were different. It was something I never experienced before. Guess what though."

I looked up at him a little confused, "What?"

"I don't regret starting this with you. It was probably the best decision I've made in a long time."

I can't help but smile. It's nice hearing it even though I'm pretty much knew the answer already. I lent into his shoulder, looking up at him, "I'm thankful for everything you've done for me. Especially with choosing to not treat me like those other girls."

He squeezed my hand, "I don't think I could ever do that to you."

I smiled, "You're only saying that because we're engaged now."

"No. I mean it, love. I just knew from the moment I saw you that you were different."

I kissed his jaw line since it was the only thing I could reach without moving. He pulled his hand away from mine, placing it on my leg, "I love you."

I put my hand on top of his, "I love you."

It's nice sitting here with him. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else. I'm sure he knows that. Especially by now.

After we were done eating he started driving again. I'm not sure how long we were in the car for. It felt like awhile. I don't know where we're going but it's taking forever. I groaned, "Are we almost there?"
