you and toby met in high school. you were a freshman, and he was a junior. the definition of a meet-cute. your eyes met in the cafeteria, and that was that. for such a timid boy, it took him just over a week to ask you out. well, "out" may not be quite the right term for it; you went to his house, sat on his bed, and cuddled. you had dinner there, and he knew you were the one when lani didn't just take her dinner to her room to watch youtube.

just six years later, and you were already engaged. today, toby wanted to take you out on a date, but he didn't say where. since you had no plans, he drove you out to a forest about thirty minutes from the house. with your hand in his, he led you out to a clearing shallowly hidden from the hiking trail. it was overgrown, and flower-filled. bees buzzed merrily, and chipmunks rustled in the tall grass.

he lied down and pulled you down next to him, giggling mischievously. he leant over and rested his head on your chest, with a lovestruck smile plastered across his soft features. the sun casted an aureate glow onto his face, and a zephyr ruffled his fluffy mane.
