35
Hey guys! So, the winner of the contest is: 2loveAnshika_jain! Your idea was nice and original, and it paired well with the story. For others who entered the contest, don't be sad (please, because then I'll be sad). All of your ideas were awesome, and it was hard to choose one (literally, I had to ask my family members to read the ideas). Although, don't worry, there will be another contest soon. Now, onto the chapter!
----------
Romeo arrives at Cupid's house.
He is wearing a grey t-shirt with jeans.
Cupid walks down her driveway, towards the car.
She is wearing a white blouse with leggings.
"Hey."
"Hi."
"So...um...can I drive?"
"Robin, Love, why would I let you drive? It's my car."
"I know, but....I'm really energetic right now. I need to do something."
"Are you even allowed to drive?"
"Will. Of course I'm allowed to drive."
"Well, I won't let you."
"Why not?"
"Because. I asked you on this date, I'm the gentleman, it's my job to drive the girl."
"Uh... Give me the seat."
Robin tried climbing from the passenger seat to the driver's seat.
Will wrestled with her, and finally, she fell onto his lap.
She stared at him. He stared at her.
Both are blushing.
"You know what? I have a place to take you."
Then Robin led Will to the big forest behind her house.
Finally, a tree house came into view.
Will gulped. He's afraid of heights.
Robin laughed, leading him up the ladder.
Soon they were inside.
They both laid down on the floor, staring through the glass ceiling.
Everything was quiet for a few minutes.
"I used to come here with my mother."
Robin shifted so she was cuddling next to Will.
He wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her closer.
"What do you want to do when you grow up?"
"Be a matchmaker, obviously."
They both laughed.
"What about you?"
"I have to work with my dad's company when I turn eighteen."
"Oh. Poor you."
Will lightly punched Robin, and she giggled.
They talked for hours and hours, about
their dreams, passions, and favorite things.
Soon, it was nighttime.
They got a blanket and cuddled, watching the stars.
Then they held hands.
"I....I like you. A lot."
Robin gasped silently. She looks at Will's face, seeing he was serious.
"I think I like you too."
Will starts smiling, and he hugs Robin so hard, she almost couldn't move.
"You are the first girl I've ever liked this much. You are the last girl I'll ever like, and you have to promise me something, Robin."
"What? Will, what's wrong?"
Will was quiet. Then he took her hand, holding it tight.
Will started to cry.
"I have to leave."
"............."
"Robin, please, say something."
He wiped the tears from Robin's cheeks, and she finally looked at him.
"W-when?"
"Monday. Two days from now."
Robin shifted so she was no longer facing him.
She didn't want Will to see her ugly face.
Then he wrapped his arms around her waist from behind.
She felt Will's warm breath on her neck, and she closed her eyes.
"Why?"
"You know how I said I have to go with my dad when I'm eighteen?"
"Yeah."
"Well....it turns out I have to start my internship this year."
"Oh, God."
"I know. And...I won't be back till senior year."
"Will, that's next year...I...I can't wait that long."
Will sat up, pulling Robin with him.
He held her from behind, and then she felt something slide onto her finger.
A ring. A silver ring, with a tiny red stone in the middle.
"Promise me, Robin. Promise you'll wait for me. That you won't leave me."
"I...Will, why are you doing this to me? We just started dating, and on our first date, you expect me to just wait for you! I-I can't . This is too much."
Robin stood up, leaving the tree house.
But Will pulled her back in.
"Will, let g--"
Suddenly, his lips met hers. This kiss was different than the first.
It was filled with hunger, passion.
Finally, he stopped, hands on the sides of her face.
"Robin...I.......I love you."
When Robin heard those words, she finally realized how she felt.
"I love you, Will. I'll wait for you, even if it's months till I'll see you again."
Will kissed Robin once more.
Then he left the tree house, leaving Robin alone.
"I love him," she whispered.
And she did.
