章 12: Chapter 12

"Don't open your eyes!" Leo yells.

"Don't yell at me!" I yell back as he leads me through the forest.

"I'm sorry." He whispers and I sigh.

"It's fine. Are you gonna push me off the cliff as I wanted?" I try to lighten the mood but fail miserably as he tenses.

Too soon?

"Kidding, kidding. Never doing that again, I promised." I rushed out and I don't get a reply.

Suddenly his hands are off my eyes and I nearly melt at what I see, roses. Everywhere. There was a blanket in the middle and Apple was running about in the other flowers.

"He wanted to help." Leo shrugs and I catch the whiff of something delicious.

"Is that chili?" I gasp and he grins. There was sparkling champagne and a huge basket filled with fruits.

He grabs my hand gently and pulled me onto the blanket. I smile kindly at him as he hands me some chili. Taking a bite, I nearly cry out in pleasure, closing my eyes and making a low sound.
