A/N: Hey guys! If yall got an update on this story then come to find it and found nothing, I can explain. It was late at night and I decided to do GIF preferences of the Assassins! I did and published it, only to have Wattpad SCREW IT UP AND RUIN EVERY GOD DAMN THING I WRITE ON MY PHONE. Well, I've tried using Wattpad on mobile before and it sucks but that's not the point here. I got one request down! *WOO!* Hope you enjoy it! Sorry for mistakes :P Phoenix Out~ (Creds to whoever made the picture)

Connor and (Y/N) are going out on a walk to relieve some stress from their everyday jobs, with one being more stressful than the other (*cough* Connor *cough*).

"We're here, Connor."

(Y/N) announced to the bulky Assassin as she pulled into a parking stall and opened the back of the S.U.V. with the press of a button on the console. She got out first and walked to the back to grab their water bottles and other hiking necessities. Connor got out to with his hood down, showing his handsome features he inherited from his father. (Y/N)'s outfit consisted of a red and black plaid button up shirt that went over a black tank top, she also wore black skinny jeans with some dark brown hiking boots that oddly pulled the outfit together. She threw her backpack over her shoulder only to have the weight be lifted off and the strap slide down her arm, she turned her head to see Connor holding the backpack instead.

"I thought I should I carry the bags for you."

"There's no need too but thank you, Connor."

She thanked before using the hair band on her wrist to pull her (y/h/c) hair back into a low ponytail. She clicked the button on the small pad that connected to the main ring which held multiple other keys. The trunk door closed and locked itself, she then clicked a different button and locked the entire vehicle. (Y/N) turned around to see Connor throwing some of his sandwich bread to a few content house sparrows. She sighed slightly,

"The bread is for you Connor, not the animals."

Connor glanced down at the bread in his hand before throwing the rest and placing the now open faced lunch in his bag. She chuckled before moving forward to the trail head, where a map was placed that showed the trail and multiple flyers people have pinned into the painted wood. The Plexiglas that protected the delicate papers was slightly dirtied, showing hand prints, smudges and small animal footprints where a raccoon may have climbed up the sign at one time. She memorized the trail path, trying to remember the way back although the mulched path and the multiple signs would help along the way. She turned around only to find the bags on the ground and no Connor. No Connor?

"Connor? Where'd you go?"

(Y/N) glanced back the car, no Connor there. Maybe the front of the trail? Nope. (Y/N) looked up after hearing a branch snap to find her boyfriend climbing a reasonably large tree. She raised an eyebrow before hearing a large snap then multiple other ones, only to reveal the reason. She watched as the tree swayed slightly before Connor fell down and landed just below the tree. She strolled over and poked his side slightly with her foot,

"You're an Assassin, huh?"

He glanced away shyly before speaking,

"I did not see that the branch was going to break."

She rolled her eyes before holding out her hand for him to use to get up, he gently took it and stood up but she could feel he hardly used her weight to pull him up. It was probably a smart move, seeing as how he was made of pure muscle and would've accidently pulled her down to his level. They began walking down the heavily forested trail, tall oak's that stood proudly or the pine trees that seemed to reach out and try to brush their branches against you. Thankfully the mulched path was there or you could have easily gotten lost. It was so peaceful with the cloudless sky just peeking out from behind the tree branches that sheltered most of the open space. After a while of walking Connor attempted to climb up a tree again, this time successfully doing so without snapping a branch. (Y/N) stood for a few moments before Connor climbed back down silently like the trained hunter he is and marched forward to their perfect lunch spot. On the way there, they spooked a few does and jumpy rabbits. (Y/N) smiled, how did she enjoy nature this much? She always loved going out and away from the house, just to enjoy the fresh air. The outdoors spoke to her, it was practically her second home when she was young, and even now she couldn't get enough of the wilderness. The best part was camping with Connor. They would go out and find a spot to setup camp, they both would setup the tents and main stuff. But after that, (Y/N) would begin cooking dinner over the fire they made while Connor set out to get more wood. While eating dinner they would share stories with each other- in fact that's how (Y/N) found out about Connor's father because he was willing to open up about him.

(Y/N) was snapped out of her thoughts when she felt a hand on her shoulder stop her. She looked up and to the right to see Connor standing with a worried expression written on his face.

"Are you alright?"

"Yeah, I'm fine. Just thinking."

She smiled before looking back forward and gasping slightly, the spot Connor brought her was gorgeous. The trail opened up to reveal an opening that lead out to nowhere, but showed a stunning view of the rest of the forest. Small but colorful flowers dotted the edge of the cliff where the opening started. The sun beamed down to brighten the green leaves of the trees that reached towards the endless sky, it was all too beautiful for words. She heard Connor chuckle slightly before sauntering forward, putting the blanket down and setting the food out. (Y/N) fell out of her trance as she glanced at Connor who was chowing down on his sandwich. She gently stepped forward, sat down on the blanket and began eating with her beloved boyfriend. They were silent for a few moments, enjoying the peace that the forest held; other than the happy birds who chirped and sung their untranslatable songs.

"Thank you so much, Connor."

"You're welcome. I love you so much I had to bring you here."

"I love you too, always and forever."

"Always."
