Chapter 5: Park/Surprise

*At the park Val sitting on the bench with a picnic basket set next to her.

Val: (getting up to greet Tyler) Hey, How are you?

Tyler: ok, I'd be better if you tell me what the surprise is. (not noticing the picnic basket)

Val: you'll find out soon enough now close your eyes.

Tyler: fine. (closing his eyes) aww come on Val just tell me please?!?!

Val: you find out soon just hold on. (spreads out a blanket on the floor with a candle and single red rose on top of it.) Ok, you can turn around now.

Tyler: (opening his eyes) wow, this all looks wonderful, but I thought it was the guy who was suppose to be the romantic surprising one.

Val: Well, I'm a woman who likes to take charge!

*they both laugh.

Tyler: so what's on the menu for tonight?

Val: spaghetti with meat sauce and cheese, sorry its not that nice.

Tyler. It's ok I wasn't even expecting anything.

*They ate and Tyler cleaned up the mess and put everything away and put it in Val's car.

Tyler: So do you want to go for a walk or are you tired?

Val: I'm fine I am a big girl you know.

Tyler: ok, you sure are a BIG girl. (winking at her)

Val: Ok that's enough of you Tyler Connell.

Tyler: Yes maim!

Val: What happened with you and William for you not to have dinner?

Tyler: oh, nothing

Val:(rubbing her hands against her arms forgetting her jacket) its ok you if you don't want to tell me. Tyler: (taking his jacket off and giving it to Val) It's ok just the usual William type of thing and I just skipped dinner hoping it would prevent us from having yet another big fight.

Val: (accepting his jacket and putting it on) thank you. Aren't you cold?

Tyler: I'm a tough boy and can take the cold. (smiling)

Val: Yeah, that's right you're Mr. Toughty

Tyler: ooo, good one. Besides I rather catch a cold than for you to catch one.

Val: aww how sweet. (giving him a kiss on the cheek)

Tyler: wow, I really could get use that happening more often.

Val: What do you say we forget about the walk and go to my house for a movie or something?

Tyler: sounds good.
