"Here, baby," Steve says, handing you the bouquet of red roses. Flowers he knows are your favorite. He kissed the back of your hand. "I decided to do it a bit more... What you'd call 'old fashioned'." ` He gestures to the plaid blanket on the soft greet grass, a woven basket on it with what he knows are your favorite treats. And in addition there's a wine cooler with two different bottles— he couldn't decide between your favorites— and two wine glasses. Trees surround the picnic spot, and it seems almost magical. Like something you'd see in a romance novel.

He's spent a lot of time preparing this, but he didn't do it to brag. He wanted to make you feel special in his own way. In the way he would if he was back in the 40's, back when winning your affections would've been much more challenging.
