Bethany's POV
I sat on the bottom of the slide waiting for Cayden to show up I was a little early, 30 minutes early to be exact. I was still trying to convince myself that this was a bad idea but my heart was telling me that this is what I wanted and I would be stupid to let this chance go.
I had spent my whole life living in the shadows doing things for other people, instead of myself and now I had the chance to actually do something with my life.
I was going to tell Cayden that I was sorry and that I loved him with all my heart. Maybe more, if that was even possible. I know it may seem crazy. I mean I was never one to believe in love at first sight but now I do. I've felt this way for Cayden the moment I laid my eyes on him. I loved everything about him. Well everything that I knew anyway. I had a feeling that our relationship would last a very long time; if we ever have one.
I took a glance at my phone it was eleven Cayden should be here any minute now. I was surprised that he hadn't shown up by now I thought he would have been early, like me. I picked up a small twig and started peeling the bark off, I had nothing better to do. I kept doing that with any twig I found until I got bored and decided to look at my phone again.
I had been sitting here for an hour peeling bark off twigs and Cayden still wasn't here. I can't believe that he stood me up. I knew this was too good to be true, he had to have the last laugh. I felt my heart break at the realization that Cayden really didn't love me.
Cayden's POV
I stood on the sidewalk just watching her. She was 30 minutes early and I couldn't help but smile. I couldn't take my eyes off her she looked more beautiful in the moonlight than she already was, if that was even possible.
I didn't understand how she made me feel this way. I've thought this many times before. I never would have expected to fall in love with such a wonderful girl but I guess you don't get to choose who you love. I walked onto the street towards her.
That's when it hit me
