Sophie's POV

We been driving for about 10 minutes when I started to get impatient.

"Bennn," I whined slumping in my seat.

"Yes babe?" I couldn't help but get a warm feeling in my stomach, but ether way I groaned in annoyance,

"Are we there yet?"

"In about 10 minutes," I groaned even louder and I could hear Ben chuckle at my childish behavior. "But I'm bored!"

"Okay, do you want to play a game?" He asked and I glanced at him. He was wearing a boyish grin while looking at the road.

"What are you so happy about?" I asked him and he gave me a quick glance before looking back to the road. His hand found my and he intertwined them.

"I'm happy that you skipped school to hang out with me." I slightly cringed at the words 'skipped school' because I knew my mom would murder me if she knew, "and," he continued, "I'm happy that I'm dating the most beautiful, one of a kind, girl ever." He brought our intertwined hands up and kissed mine. I couldn't help but blush at his cheesiness.

"Your so freaking cheese," I rolled my eyes but still couldn't help but swooning over him.

He shrugged his shoulders as if to say 'what can I do'.

"Anyways, what game were you talking about?"

This time, his grin changed from a boyish one to a smirk "how about 20 questions?"

I gave him an are you serious look. He noticed it and cheekily smiled back, "what?"

"20 questions, seriously? Can this get any more cliche?"

"It can," he answered cockily, "but I don't  think you want to go there." I rolled my eyes yet again as I sighed in defeat, "fine, we'll play the stupid game."

"Great, okay I'll go first! Let's start off simple, favorite food?"

"Pizza, yours?"

"Chicken noodle soup." I mentally cooed, "okay..." He thought for a second, "favored singer/band?"

"Ed Sheeran," I answered almost instantly. I mean, he was so freaking talented. I have an old record player that my grandpa left us, and I bought Ed Sheeran's '+' record and listen to it practically every day. "Okay Ben, let's see... First girlfriend?" I smirked at him, if he wanted to play the game we would play it right.

He thought for a second, "Layla Towood in third grade. I gave her a ring pop and we dated for a day before sone guy named Ethan took her away from me. I was heartbroken!" He wiped a fake tear away from his eyes and I could help but laugh at his stupidity. "What about you?" I glared at him, knowing that he knew the answer. He just smiled innocently.

"Ha ha, very funny." I said sarcastically but could help the blush that crept up my face. He knew he was my first boyfriend, that little son of a bitch.

"Okay okay, I'm sorry. I just wanted to hear you say it to boost up my ego." He joked. "Okay let me ask you something else, favorite dessert?"

"Oh, that's a tough one. I mean I pretty much like anything with melted chocolate in it... But again, I like everything with sugar- except pie, ew pie! I mean I like chocolate pie but I hate fruit cakes in general, it's just ruining the cake, you know?" I looked over to Ben as he smiled at me.

"There the Sophie I know and love." I froze, did he just say love? By the way he was acting all casual about it, I'm guessing he was just joking, not meaning the real love.

"You never answered your question." He pointed out snapping me out of my thoughts. I shook off what he said and fought about the question.

"I would have to say... Ether donuts or chocolate fondu. Ohhh fondu..." I started to daydream about it.

For the remainder of the drive, we went back and forth with random questions until Ben finally parked the car. I looked around at the scenery, there were a bunch of trees around us, like a small forest.

Ben got out of the car and quickly came over to my side to open the door for me. I smiled at his gentlemen gesture, hopping out of the car.

He took my hand, pulling me into the forest. We walked for about a minuet before Ben stopped, turning to me.

"Do you trust me?" He asked,

"I trust you," I quoted titanic, he chuckled getting the joke.

"I'm serious."

I looked at his face, the way his beautiful hazel eyes gleamed, and his hair was messed up by the many times he ran a hand though it. I looked at his amazing jaw line, and I smiled, meeting his eyes again. "Of course I trust you."

He smiled, "close your eyes."

I gave him a question look, but closed my eyes anyway. I heard him move, and I jumped a little when I felt a pair of warm hand on my waist, sending sparks everywhere.

"Don't peak, okay?" I nodded my head and i felt him pull me against his hard chest and started leading my somewhere.

Being me, the clumsy person, I tripped over some sort of stick, but Ben caught me, I could feel his biceps around me as he pulled me even closer to him.

"We're almost there," he whispered in my ear, making me shiver. I could almost imagine the cocky smile he would be wearing right now.

We stopped somewhere. I could hear birds tweeting, and wind blowing in my hair.

"Open your eyes," he said as he put his chin on my shoulder, fully wrapping his arms around my waist.

I open my eyes and forgot how to breath. 

We were standing on some sort of mountain, over looking a city. It was beautiful. Since it was still midday, the sun was high in the clouds. The blue sky hung over the city with little clouds in some places. The wind blew in our faces, and I closed my eyes, savoring the moment, as I wrapped my arms over Bens.

This is when i thought about my favorite book, Perks of Being a Wallflower. I always wanted to have that felling of going though the tunnel on a truck, with the wind in your face, just forgetting the world and all your problems.

And right now, I did.

And at that moment, I swear we were infinite.
