Chapter 17
Today was lazy day for everyone, no chores, no missions, just everyone relaxing and doing nothing
So I was by myself in the living room flipping through the channels on TV, until Chase literally ran through the room
Stumbling to the couch he sat down and breathed heavily, I giggled slightly and turned off the TV
"What did you run in here for?" I chuckled
"I-I wanted to know what you were doing today," he spoke
"Well, nothing. It's lazy day, why?" I question
"I was wondering if you wanted to go on our date today?" He asked, looking slightly afraid as if I would say no
"Of course! Where are we going?" I spoke
"It's a need to know basis, all you need is a swim suit and a cover up," Chase spoke
"Okay, I'll go get changed and meet you back here in a hour?" I suggested
"Okay, I'll meet you back here in a hour," Chase smiled, running back to the lab, making me laugh
I went up to my room and picked out and easy to slip off outfit and a bikini, it was the same maroon one that I didn't get to use last timer went to the beach, I choose a two piece cover up that was red and white and revealed a bit of my stomach, I wore my white wedges and my black sunglasses
I grabbed a white cross body and stuffed my phone and wallet inside, I put in a hat and went downstairs, Chase was waiting next to the door with two towels
He wore a light blue polo shirt and some white with blue strips swim shorts and some blue flip flops
"Okay, so where are you taking me?" I ask as I approach him
"It's a surprise, Scarlett. Come on, we'll miss the limo," Chase spoke, opening the front door
"Limo?" I questioned, walking through the door and see a limo parked in the front yard!
"Yeah, Mr.Davenport let me borrow a limo for today," Chase spoke
"You did this for me? Chase, that's so sweet," I spoke
"Only the best for you, come on or we'll be late," Chase spoke, leading me to the limo
The driver opened the door and let us in, closing it behind us and taking off
"We're are we going?" I asked for the millionth time
"I told you it's a surprise," Chase spoke
"Just a hint?" I ask
"No."
"A clue?"
"No."
"Please?"
"No."
"Then when will we get there?" I ask
"A few more minutes, try to relax," Chase spoke
"How can I relax when I don't know where we're going?" I ask
"Do you ever stop asking questions?"
"Only when I'm told the answer."
"We're here," the driver spoke, stopping the car
He opened the door and Chase got out, extending a hand to me and I took it with a smile
When we got out I took in the amazing view of where we were at, it was beautiful, it was a small section of the beach from the public beach
"Chase, this is beautiful," I marveled
"I wanted to have something private, just you and me. When you were at the beach you looked so happy, so I did some research and found this," Chase explained
"You did this for me?" I questioned
"Of course, now come on let's go in the water," Chase smiled
The limo drove off and we ran towards the beach, laughing as I tried run fast in my heels
Chase placed down the towels and quickly slipped off his shirt and his shoes and ran into the water
I stood on the towels and took off my hat and shoes, I took off my outfit and ran towards the water
It was at neck level and then I started swimming, but I panicked when I didn't see Chase
"Chase? Chase?" I called out, I sucked in a breath and dove underwater, opening my eyes to try and find him
I swam back up for air and sucked in a few breaths, before I could dive under again someone picked me up bridal style underwater
"Boo!" He laughed, I giggled slightly
"You scared me! I thought you drowned!" I complained
"Nope, I'm the smartest man alive, Scarlett. No water is gonna kill me," he spoke
"Don't do that again," I warned
"Okay, okay, but you can't stop me from doing this," Chase smirked
"What are you-" before I could finish he tossed me farther into the water
I hit with a splash, bubbles of air covering my face and body as I swam back up, I sucked in a breath while smoothing my hair back from my face
"I'm gonna get you!" I threatened
"Oh yeah?" Chase questioned
I splashed water at him, a lot and he turned away after some got in his face
He spit out some of the water and grinned, "Your gonna pay for that."
He splashed a bunch of water at him, making my shriek as I turned away, I then splashed him back and this went on for a while
"Okay! Okay I surrender! I surrender!" I shrieked, giggling, then the splashing stopped
I splashed him one more time, laughing at the look of his face
"Okay, you win," he smiled
Then he went underwater, confused I looked around for him, then I felt something got underneath me and next thing I knew I was in top of Chases shoulders
"Ha ha! I got you!" He laughed
"Hey! No fair!" I giggled as he saw closer to the sand and stood up, the water reaching him mid chest
"I think it is, after all you splashed me when you surrendered," Chase spoke
"Only because I never lose, now put me down," I giggled
"As you wish," Chase spoke, he then swam back deeper into the water and leaned back, putting both of as deep in the water
Coming back up for air I spit some of the water that got in my mouth, laughing at how much fun this was
"This is fun Chase, thanks for asking me out," I smiled
"The days only begun, come on. I have more planned," Chase spoke
He grabbed my hand and together we swam back to shore, me slightly behind
Once we got out Chase shook his head back and forth, getting the water out of his hair, making me shriek with laughter as he slightly sprayed me
He took two towels that were slightly hanging off a tree and handed one to me, I began to dry my hair out first before wrapping it slightly around my body to dry off
"Now onto event two, volleyball," Chase smirked
"Oh you are going down!" I laughed, racing over to the set up net
"Now I didn't have an actual volleyball so we're gonna use a beach ball. First to five wins," Chase spoke
"Fine by me, I'm gonna crush you," I smirked
Chase served first, hitting the ball over the net, I bumped it back over, Chase set it over and I spiked it, hitting it out of Chases reach
"One point for me," I yelled, Chase threw the ball over and then I served
Chase raced over to where I hit it and bumped it back, I ran backwards and bumped the ball over the net, Chase then set it and spiked it, I tried to hit it but I just missed it
"One for me," he smirked, shaking my head smiling I threw the ball back over
He served it, I set it back, he bumped it, then I bumped it farther, making Chase run to get it but stumbled and missed
"Two vs. one!" I exclaimed, catching the ball
I served it, a little lighter than I wanted but it worked, Chase bumped it and then I spiked it, earning another point
I served again then Chase bumped it back, I set it and then bumped it, then Chase set it and spiked it, earning himself another point
He served, I bumped it back, he set it back, I bumped, then he bumped and then I spiked it, earning myself another point
I served, making him ran backwards and then he bumped it, I set it then bumped, he bumped, I bumped, then he bumped it over out of my reach, earning him a point
"All tied up, four to four, winner takes all," Chase announced
"I intend to," I smirked
He served it over, I bumped it back, then he bumped it, I set it over, he set it over and then spiked
I wasn't gonna lose, I dove to hit the ball and managed to bump it upward, landing on the ground
I quickly stood up and set it, jumping high in the air and spiking it as hard as I could
Chase dove to hit it but missed and I won, I cheered with victory as I jumped up and down
"Nicely played, you win fair and square," Chase spoke
"Told you is best you didn't I?" I smirked
"Well I believe I have the next thing in the bag, this day is far from over yet. What's any good beach date without a picnic?" Chase spoke, he grabbed my hand and lead me over to a picnic blanket laid out with a picnic basket
Plates were laid out and the food was all set up, along with drinks
"Chase, this is the sweetest thing anyone's ever done for me," I gushed
"Everything is your favorites, grapes, strawberry oat squares, seasoned potatoes, chocolate covered strawberries, chicken Caesar salad, sparkling water-Bree's touch-and--" Chase spoke, then he dug deeper into the picnic basket looking for something else
"Do you need some help?" I questioned
"No, no. I've got it," Chase spoke, he then pulled out and a container
He opened it and all that was in there was crumbs and a note
"Chase, ate the sandwiches you left out, I was hungry. Sorry, Adam," Chase read off the note
"Great, Adam ate the sandwiches I had made, everything was suppose to be perfect," Chase sighed
"Hey, it's still fine, I mean your brought plenty of stuff. This is still awesome without the sandwiches, thank you Chase," I smiled
"You're welcome, now if we're being completely honest I didn't make any of this, Tasha did," Chase spoke as I took a bite of my salad
I held in a laugh, "I know, cause this strawberry square oats are always hand made by Tasha."
We finished the salad and most of the sparkling water, then I suddenly got an idea
"How many of these can you catch in your mouth?" I questioned, holding up the grapes
"I don't know, let's find out," Chase put down his strawberries, rubbing his hands together
I threw a grape and Chase leaned back, catching the grape, throwing his hands up in victory, I giggled
I threw another and he leaned to the right before catching it, clapping his hands together
I threw another, he leaned left before going back and catching the grape
"Alright, that's three, now do me," I giggled, moving my wet hair out of the way
"Okay, get ready," Chase spoke, grabbing some of the grapes
I opened my mouth to catch them and threw grapes were thrown at once, gasping I look as Chase bursts into laughter
"You didn't catch any of those!" He laughed
"That's cheating!" I exclaimed
"Well it was only three," Chase spoke
"I'm so gonna get you for that!" I exclaimed
"Nope!" Chase laughed, getting up and running away
"Hey!" I yelled, getting up and going after him
I Chased after him quickly all around the beach that was filled with our laughs, I used my super-speed and caught up to him, tackling him to the ground with a 'woah!'
We rolled on our backs and breathed heavily with some laughs mixed in
"You so cheated," I giggled
"Well I had to get back at you for winning at volleyball," he laughed, making me laugh
For a while we just sat in silence and watched as the clouds rolled by, it was getting abut darker so we'd have to leave soon
"Scarlett, can I ask you something?" Chase questioned, sitting up
"Of course, what's up?" I asked, sitting up to look at him
"How much fun did you have today?" He asked
"More fun than I've had in years, thank you for this. I really needed a break from everything," I smiled
"There's one more thing, I know usually people wait after the third or forth date, but studies have shown that's it's possible for it to happen on the first date as well. I'm not sure how to word this exactly-" Chase started
"Chase, your rambling," I pointed out
"Well, I guess what I'm trying to say is, Scarlett, would you like to be my girlfriend?" He asked nervously
"Yes," I smiled
"Now I can understand if you say no because it is only our first--wait, did you say yes?"
"Yes."
"Yes! I mean, that's cool," Chase exclaimed, then calmed down, making my giggle
Then a horn honked, we looked and saw the limo was back and it was time to head home
I put back on my slip on and shoes, Chase out back on his shirt and his shoes and we packed everything up
We stuffed in to the trunk and headed home, laughing about how the day went, I leaned my head on Chases shoulder while he put his arm over my shoulders
We got home and unloaded everything, Chase got the picnic basket with the leftovers and the blanket we sat on, I grabbed all the towels we used and my cross body
We laughed again about one of the memories at the beach when we walked in the door, and when we got in everyone was on the couch staring at us
"Sooooo, how'd your date go?" Leo asked
"It's was amazing, you should have seen the place he took me to," I gushed
"Yeah, it was really something," Chase smiled
"Anything else happen? Huh? Huh?" Leo asked, lifting his eyebrows
"I'll explain later, or Chase can. I'm exhausted and I'm gonna get some rest, night guys," I waved going up the stairs, a chorus of good nights heard as I walked upstairs
I put the towels in my hamper, took a quick shower and changed into some sweats and a tank top, putting my hair in a ponytail I luge myself to my bed and quickly falling asleep
And all my dreams were memories of what had happened today, a smile plastered on my face
