New Reason for Living

(A lot of this is inspired by a lot of things that I like and the song used in this chapter is from Lady and the Tramp 2.)

Chapter 9: Amazing Night

Leanne and I both headed through the street, ready for this night. It actually seemed a lot harder than I thought it would be, mostly because I wasn't sure of what Leanne would like.

Leanne headed further ahead. Surprised at first, I immediately followed her. "Can you try to wait a little? I never expect that." I explained. Leanne just smiled at me. "I can't help it. It's just that this is the first time in a while I ever went out." Leanne explained.

(From this part onwards, play 'I didn't know that I could feel this way' from Lady and the Tramp 2.)

Third Person View

Aaron looked over to see that Leanne was smiling at him. He didn't know why, but somehow he enjoyed spending this time with her. Ever since he had met her when this started, he had wanted to spend time with her; he somehow really enjoyed it.

Leanne couldn't help but feel so happy just being with Aaron. Somehow he reminded her of Blaze when he was young. But that was what she liked; to have a feeling of knowing that she was as happy as she was when she was little.

As the two continued on their way, Aaron noticed a tree nearby. This gave him an idea. Leanne looked in surprise to notice that Aaron wasn't following her, then she looked back to see that he had carved their initials: Aaron & Leanne. Leanne happily laughed when she saw this; it actually looked really nice.

But then to the two's surprise, fireflies started to fly in the air around them. The two smiled when they saw this; it was such a wonderful sight. With this, they were both off.

When they both stopped, they found that they were on a hillside. Aaron quickly noticed that there were the lights of the town shining below. He sat down and invited Leanne to sit with him. Smiling, Leanne came and sat down next to him. They both looked up to see the moonlight and the stars shining in the night sky.

Aaron and Leanne both smiled at one another. Leanne nuzzled up against Aaron; she clearly loved that they were alone and only they were together. Smiling, Aaron held Leanne close in his arms and the two both looked out at the beautiful view, just with each other.

Aaron's POV

Leanne and I both arrived back at her house. I had no idea that tonight would be this good, but I felt happy that it was because that was how I wanted it to be. Leanne looked over at me and I could tell that she was so happy.

"Aaron, I had such a fun time tonight. I never had a night this wonderful for a while. Thanks." Leanne said. I smiled, knowing that Leanne really enjoyed herself. I felt so glad to know that I was able to make her happy.

"I'm glad to hear that, Leanne." I explained. Leanne beamed, and she came over to me. I was surprised, but at the same time I knew that I had taken this opportunity for Leanne to enjoy herself and it worked out better than I could have imagined.

"I'm looking forward to another night like this. Good night, Aaron." Leanne said. With this, to my surprise, Leanne kissed me on the cheek and she headed upstairs still smiling at me.

I was alarmed; I didn't expect that at all. But then, a bright smile replaced my shock with amazement and happiness. Although I didn't expect this, I still felt really happy that it could happen. I headed upstairs to my room, the thought that Leanne was happy still in my mind.
