“Carter? What-.” She was in the middle of asking me something but I interrupted her by sweeping her into my arms and planting my lips on hers, cutting her off mid sentence. The feel of her lips on mine was like coming home after being away for a long time.
“What’s going on?” Emmalee smiled at me when I pulled away from her.
“I love you.” I sighed into her ear as I held her close. I had never actually said those words to her before and I heard the gasp when she heard them now.
“Carter?” She sounded happy. “I love you too.” She sighed as she squeezed me back. “Did something happen?”
“I finally beat your dad and earned his approval.” I had pulled away and was grinning at her like a fool.
“Really?” She seemed overjoyed.
“He told me to call him Dad.”
“Oh my Goddess, Carter, that’s amazing.”
“Go out with me, please.”
“What?”
“Go on a date with me. Just the two of us, please.”
“Of course. You know I would go anywhere with you. I love you Carter.”
“I love you, more than life itself.”

Tonight was my date with Carter. He didn’t tell me where we were going or what I should wear but I didn’t care. As long as we were together that’s all that mattered to me.
I chose to wear a light sundress, something cute yet flirty. It was a bright green and was in a halter style. I had just tied the dress’s straps behind my neck and put on a pair of black sandals when I heard a knock at the door. I could tell by the scent that it was Carter.
My hair was done. My makeup was perfect. My outfit was wonderful. All I needed was a light jacket and my purse. I grabbed an emerald green satin jacket to slip over my shoulders. It’s sleeves were only three quarter lengths that I pushed up to my elbows. Now I was ready to go.
When I opened the door I saw Carter’s handsome, smiling face.
“Hello beautiful.” His words brought a blush to my face as he leaned down and kissed my cheek.
“Hey.” I was breathless now, with the excitement of the upcoming date, the kiss, and how handsome he looked. He was wearing a pair of black jeans, a dark blue button up shirt that was fully open showing the light gray t-shirt underneath. He looked casual but so sexy and handsome.
“Ready?” He asked me with a grin.
“Yeah.” I nodded my head, I had been looking forward to this all week.
Carter helped me into the Jeep just like he had last time before driving us into town. He took us for an early dinner at a nice restaurant that I had always dreamt of going to. It was called The Fiery Jewel and it was a popular place for dates. But I had never dated anyone before Carter so I was excited for this chance to finally go.
The food was amazing, the menu was high class and full of expensive fine dining options. We ordered saffron risotto, langoustine ravioli, turbot and morels, filet mignon with fondant potatoes and asparagus, and chocolate millefeuille. The food was enough to make me feel like I had just been taken to another planet and spoiled beyond my wildest dreams.
After the dinner was over the sun was just beginning to set so I thought we might be going home, or maybe for a walk. So I was really shocked when I saw Carter start to drive into the mountains. This wasn’t his pack and he didn’t know the area, but he seemed like he knew what he was doing.
When he finally pulled the Jeep to a stop I saw that there was a whole place set up. There a large dark gray tent set up in the middle of a clearing with the opening facing the mountain’s flat surface.
I saw that there was a large white screen standing in front of the rocky wall with a battery operated projector in front of it. There were candles waiting to be lit, an ice bucket with a bottle of wine, some simple yet nice snacks that we could eat later, and of course a bag of popcorn to have while watching a movie.
“What’s all this?” I asked him, with my heart fluttering excitedly. It was beating very rapidly because I could see a king size air mattress inside the tent covered in soft looking pillows, sheets, and blankets.
“A movie date.” He grinned. “I thought it would be best if it were just the two of us.”
“Really?” I asked him to make sure even though I could tell that there was no one else around.
“If that’s alright with you.” He held my hand firmly in his, but his eyes were questioning and full of hope.
“That sounds wonderful to me.” I was happy, nervous, excited, and scared all at once. But this night was meant to be special. It was meant to be just the two of us and that made me smile.
Carter walked me into the tent and I sat on the edge of the bed. I didn’t want to make the sheets dirty so I slid my sandals off.
“What are you doing?” He asked me, confused.
“I don’t want to get dirt in the sheets.”
“That makes sense.” He said as he sat beside me and slid his hiking boots off and put them next to my sandals.
