~Two Years Earlier~

"Aris Collins is now up and running to the goal. He's running, he's running- YES! YES! HE MADE A TOUCHDOWN! OHIO EAST HAS WON THE GAME!" The man's voice roared from the announcing podium.

The energized announcer jumped out of his seat, high-fiving the other announcer beside him. Then, he pumped his fists in the air as he congratulated the team for their outstanding win.

That was Ohio East's first high school football game of the season and luckily they had won it thanks to their all-star quarterback.

The crisp fall air blew around the audience and the players who were armed with layers of clothing. Everyone in the audience was important to the team, but Aris Collins' most treasured and supportive fan was his best friend and beloved girlfriend, Mikayla Waters.

Mikayla is a gorgeous girl who used to be on the cheerleading team when she was a freshmen. At the time, she played for the school's volleyball team and was also on the swim team. Besides participating in sports, during most of her free time she was always supporting Aris or hanging out with him. For starters, Mikayla always had a huge crush on Aris since eighth grade. Secretly, Aris had a crush on her since freshmen year and now-being juniors- they finally became a couple. They had kept a strong relationship going for three years now and hopefully they could continue for many years to come.
Currently, Mikayla was sitting in the stands screaming as loud as she could once she saw her boyfriend make a winning touchdown.

"YEAH ARIS! I LOVE YOU!" She squealed through her purple and white megaphone as she spotted him jogging over to the sidelines.

Mikayla leapt forward to have a better view of her boyfriend. Mikayla's friend, Ashlyn, was next to her cheering for the team as well.

Mikayla was wearing a long and loosely fitting shirt from her favorite store H&M and a pair of brand new blue jeans from American Eagle. She had a special necklace from her grandmother around her neck and a new pair of boots from Hot Topic.

Besides that, her beautiful brown hair was pulled back into a slick and perfect bun while her emerald green eyes were shining in the semidarkness of where they were sitting in the stands. Small annoying wisps of hair were dangling around her face as the wind blew her baby hairs around.

As Aris began to reach Mikayla, who was waving frantically at him, some girls from behind her began to scream and shout. Aris smiled and waved at the exuberant fans who were yelling uproariously at him.

Some people were booing for Ohio East, since they won the game, while others continue to cheer. A variation of colors were on the bleachers which made it look as if someone had painted little purple, white, orange, and black speckles onto them.

"I love you, Mikayla," he whispered suddenly as he pulled her in for a quick, but meaningful kiss. His dreamy blue eyes locked onto Mikayla's for a moment. Feeling an urge to turn around, he let out a sigh," crap, I should probably go." He excused as Mikayla sighed dreamily; watching him as he ran back to his team.

"Aris, lets have someone take our picture! I haven't posted anything on my Instagram for weeks!" Mikayla exclaimed as she pulled out her rose gold iPhone that had an adorable pineapple case on.

"Alright." Aris obliged as she handed her phone to her friend, Ashlyn.

The couple smiled and tried not to blink when the flash went off, illuminating their faces.

"Awe, this is so cute! Oh my God, everyone will love this picture for sure!" She proclaimed excitingly as she brainstormed a good caption and then posted the picture.

      "Oh, and thank you so much for coming to my game, Mikayla. You know how much that means to me." He thanked as he engulfed Mikayla in a large hug before he looked back at the field.

"Anything for my favorite person in the whole world!" She replied with a wink," hey, you know, let's go to my house and celebrate for a little while. My mom and dad are gone so don't worry, we have a lot more flexibility." Mikayla informed as a smirk appeared on her lips.

Aris's cheeks turned a bright red as he realized what she was hinting at. He itched his head as a sign for feeling uncomfortable, but then he looked back at her. He smiled and then pulled Mikayla in for another kiss; However, this one was much longer.

"I was just kidding, you know." Mikayla replied with a hint of laughter ringing in her voice as she let Aris pull her in for the last bit of their kiss.

"Gosh, I  just love Disney movies." Mikayla sighed as she stood up from the couch, accidentally spilling the fallen popcorn that was once somewhere on her lap, onto the carpet. They had just finished watching Aris's favorite Disney movie, Tarzan.

Aris smiled in response and let out a long groan as he stretched out his aching muscles," haha, I do too, especially when I am watching them with you," he added as he picked up the large popcorn bowl they were eating out of and took it to the sink.

"Oh Lord, I am extremely tired," Mikayla yawned as she looked at the clock on the stereo which read, 12:34 a.m.

"You think you're tired? Oh man, I don't think so," Aris retorted with a hint of humor in his voice as he slid on his bright yellow and vibrant orange nike shoes over his feet.

"Will you be able to walk home by yourself?" Mikayla questioned as she opened the front door for him. She looked at Aris's sweaty forehead, which was gleaming in the moon's light.

"Of course! I am not blind nor I am I three years old, so don't worry about me," Aris responded as he blew Mikayla a kiss, shutting the door behind himself as he left.

     She sighed and thought about the football game and being with her favorite person in the universe, Aris.
