My heart fluttered as my phone lit up with a text message
Johnny boi: hey wanna come over? I was thinking we could carve pumpkins or something, since 'it's spooky season 👻
Me: yeah sure! I'll be there soon.
I grabbed my keys, and started driving to Johns house. I've liked him for a long time, but I still get nervous around him. I walked into his house without knocking, knowing he wouldn't mind.
"John I'm here!" I called out as I walked in.
"I'm in the kitchen," he replied. I went into the kitchen to find him making hot chocolate. He grinned when he saw me.
"I figured we could have a drink while we carved them...are you fine with going outside to carve them?" He asked.
"Yeah that's fine," I nodded. We grabbed the necessary supplies and headed outside. We sat across from each other, and started carving, and made small talk.
"What are you carving?" John asked me.
"Just a basic jack-o-lantern. What about you?" I asked. He smiled.
"You'll see," he glanced at me before going back to work.
"But I told you mine!!" I whined, making him shush me.
"Okay, we will reveal our pumpkins on three, Okay? One... two... three!" John and I turned our pumpkins around at the same time. In his he had carved "will you be my girlfriend?" I grinned as I read it.
"Of course I will!" I pulled john close and hugged him back
