“Jayce, are you going to tell me where the heck has been driving us for a long time?” I sighed, resting my head on the headrest.

“Calm down and just relax,” Jayce said, giving me a small smile before turning his focus to the road.

“It’s been one hour,” I complained. “No, to mention this place looks pretty damn scary,”

“It’s not scary, it’s calming.”

I scanned his face, only to find him smiling. “Calming yeah, more like horrifying,”

“Not it not,”

“It is, I mean, look how stranded these places are. As far as my eyes can see, there are only trees and empty roads, and maybe some animals here and there,”

Jayce turned his face to me again, giving me a small smile. “Take a deep breath and take a nap or something, and let me handle everything else.”

“But… Jayce….”

“Chill, I will wake you up when we come to our destination.”

“At least tell me where we are going,” I tried to ask him one last time.

But Jayce just smiled, with his eyes still on the road. “You’ll know everything when we reach our destination.”

I sighed, losing all my hope of getting any answers from him, and turned my head to the window.

I opened the window, allowing the cold air to touch my face, and with the gentle wind came the tantalizing nature fragrance that smells like pine wood and cinder with the earthiness of nature mixed in it, so fresh and calming, similar to what Jayce mentioned. But I never confess the fact that he was right.

I smiled, with my eyes scanning at all the greenery alongside the road as my eyes began to get heavy, with the sensation of comfort embracing me in its grasp, making me fall into slumber.

I smiled, looking at Rachel sleeping with her mouth slightly open. She looks so innocent, like an angel sleeping like this, but only I know what a devil she is when she wakes up, always trying to seduce me with her tricks.

I don’t know how long I have been driving for three hours, I guess, and I’m very close to my destination in just a few more minutes.

The only thing that I hope for right now is for Rachel being happy, and see what I have planned for her. Maybe I should have included her in my plans, but then again, I wouldn’t be surprised if things were that way.

I just hope she likes everything, or else I don’t know what I am going to do. I should stop thinking so negatively. Rachel would like it, for sure.

I should stop procrastinating now and drive fast. I need to get there before it gets dark.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

I don’t even want to talk about how dangerous this place gets after nightfall. There have been wild wolves and all. I don’t trust the rumors, but some people even claim to have seen wolves turning into humans. I don’t even know who the idiot is that is spreading rumors like this. Maybe I am an idiot for bringing my girlfriend to a dangerous place on our first date.

I don’t know. I shook, trying to remove all the negative thoughts from my mind. All I remember now is how this place has so many precious memories of mine, this place where dad proposed to mom for the first time and they even got married here.

I want to have the same love as my parents. They are people who truly loved and supported each other in happy and hard times. They thought about the true meaning of love. If it wasn’t for dad’s accident, mom and dad were still together now, supporting me, and guiding me. Maybe then I wouldn’t have made the mistake of hiding my feelings for so long, and maybe then Rachel would never leave as she did in the past.

I sighed, not allowing emotions to ruin my mood on this very special day.

I was a fool in the past, but things changed and I have grown so much in the past few years. I know hiding my feelings will get me nowhere. It will only make me lonely in the process.

If I want something, I’ll try my best to earn it. It can be anything, money or love or trust if you want it to build slowly over time until the one you have all for you.

I earned my money over time and all I have to do is earn Rachel’s love and her trust in me, so she will always be there with me by my side, never leaving me alone ever again.
