Hi! This is just another story, but unlike my other ones, I'm dedicated to finishing this one. I'm not sure how long it'll be, but hopefully you'll like it.

Thanks in advance for reading~!

Note: This is an original story with made up characters.

A young brunette was sitting on a bench in the park, sighing to herself wondering what was taking her date so long. She heard loud footsteps and instantly turned her head to look at the boy running towards her. Her eyes lit up and she greeted the boy with a breathtaking smile. However, after a few seconds of joy, her smile disappeared.

"What took you so long, Ethan? You're half an hour late!" The girl said, her eyes narrowing.

"I'm really, really sorry, Brianna! I was up late yesterday, and..." Ethan apologized. He begged for her forgiveness and after awhile, Brianna forgave him.

"Honestly, what am I going to do with you?" Brianna muttered, with a half smile. Ethan finally smiled since the date started, and sighed of relief. He took her hand which surprised Brianna, making her jump and blush. Ethan inspected her expression curiously and Brianna looked away, too embarrassed to meet his eyes. Together they started walking through the park, hand in hand.

Unfortunately, that's all they did. There was always an awkward silence that neither Ethan or Brianna could prevent since they had completely different personalities. Brianna was a model student, and had the top grades in her class. She aimed to be one of the finest scientists and could be considered a genius. She could pass any test with flying colors and never had to study much, but loved reading and the news. On the other hand, Ethan was the slacker of the class. You could always find him sleeping during class, and it was never a surprise if he failed a test. In fact, he wouldn't be in the 10th grade (and with Brianna) if his family wasn't rich and bribed the school into passing him. He was also popular; his family was rich because his father was a famous actor, and Ethan had inherited his drop dead gorgeous looks. Ethan was friendly and very outgoing, the complete opposite of Brianna: Brianna was the silent and awkward type, and could be bossy at times. That's why whenever Ethan attempted to keep the conversation going, Brianna would make a blunt comment and end it.

Brianna knew all this about Ethan, and Ethan about Brianna, yet anyone could tell (except the people themselves) how much they loved each other. They would look at each other lovingly, and you'd think that they knew each other and have been dating for years, yet they met a month ago and were dating for the first time.

It was already two hours since they were walking around together, and Ethan couldn't stand the silence anymore. "Hey, you hungry?" he asked, glancing over his shoulder to look at Brianna in the eye.

"Um... Yeah, kind of." Brianna replied. She looked up at Ethan who was almost a whole foot taller than her. Looking into Ethan's eyes, Brianna felt like she was melting with just his stare. She couldn't understand how she could love a person she just met this much, nevertheless someone who pays for grades. She couldn't understand why her heart would stop beating when she sees him smile at her, or why when Ethan shows any sign of affection toward her, she'd feel so happy she could cry. There were so many things she couldn't understand, but the only thing that she could understand was that she loved him. She was happy to be with him. What she didn't know was that Ethan felt the exact same way toward her, if not more. Stunned speechless, she came back to reality, only to be met with smoldering eyes. She wanted to be polite and ask him if he was hungry as well, but she could barely find her voice. When it came out, it was a stutter. "U-um.. A-are y-y-you..?"

Ethan frowned and took Brianna's other hand forcing her to stand closer to him and said, "Are you okay? You look like you might have a fever."

Brianna was startled when he asked that, and jumped in response, but Ethan never let go of her hand. "Y-y-y-yes, I'm f-fine... Now, um... Let's e-eat... W-where do you w-want to g-go?" She refused to look at Ethan anymore, since her face was burning enough.

"Hmmm.. Alright, but I'm paying." Ethan let go of one of Brianna's hands and walked toward a popular resturant. "Compensation for being late." he winked, and heard Brianna stifle a gasp, which made him incredibly happy.

Hmm.. Please review!

And if you have any ideas, that'd be a great help too. :)
