"I love you too y/n."

Karl's pov:
It had been a few days since y/n's ex turned up at my house and since they'd not left their room much since. They hadn't eaten much either. I was starting to worry a lot about them. Had Dylan turning up really affected them that much? I kept checking on them but they always said they were fine and denied anything I asked. Today I'm going to try and get them to come out, I'd been planning it for a few days and hopefully it will make them feel better.

Y/N's pov:
It had been a few days since Dylan had turned up and I hadn't left my room or eaten much since. I didn't want to go out, or talk to anyone, not even Karl. Him turning up had made al lathe bad memories come back to haunt me again, just after I'd gotten over it. I felt bad for ignoring Karl but I never wanted to talk, I just wanted to stay in bed all day, no energy to do anything.
It was around 10am when Karl came into my room. He came and sat next to me on my bed and I just sat there, resting my head on his shoulder. Again, I didn't want to talk, but I was happy to be in his presence. "Hey y/n." He said, hugging me from the side. "Hey," I replied quietly, cuddling up to his arm. "How are you, I'm starting to worry a lot, you've not left your room or eaten much since the other day when-" Karl stopped before continuing, not wanting to upset me more. "Since Dylan came?" I asked. "Yeah. Are you ok? I'm really worried." he asked, his voice genuine as he looked down at me, tears starting to prick at my eyes. "I'm sorry I didn't want to upset you." He quickly said, holding me in his arms. "It's ok, him coming has just made everything come back. I'm scared Karl." I finally admitted, tears now running down my cheeks. "How did he even know I was here, how did he find me again?" I continued through sobs. "I, I don't know y/n, but I'm sure it will be ok, I won't let anything happen again ok? I'm sorry. I shouldn't have left you alone. I won't let it happen again." Karl said, wiping the tears from my face. "Ok, thank you," I said, my sobs getting quieter as I calmed down. We stayed there, Karl comforting me until I felt better.

I'm so lucky to have you Karl

"Hey Karl." I finally spoke, my voice now calm. "Yes?" He replied. "Can we do something today" I asked, finally feeling better enough to come out of my room. "Sure, I was thinking of somewhere we could go but I want it to be a surprise." He replied, his voice with an obvious excitement in its tone. "Ok, sounds fun, I should get ready then we can go." I said, smiling up at him. "Ok." He said, standing up from my bed, leaving the room to leave me to get ready.

*time skip to when they're leaving*

"Ok, ready?" Karl asked "yes, let's go!" I said giggling, my mood now the opposite from what it had been the last few days, happy to finally be out of my stuffy room. "Ok, it's about an hour drive until we get there but I got snacks in the back." Karl replied, giggling with me. "Ok!" I said before connecting my phone to Karl's car and playing my 'vibes ✨^-^' playlist, us both singing the lyrics, the volume nearly on full.

After about an hour, we finally arrived at the place Karl brought us. It didn't look like much from the outside, just some trees, like a forest. I trusted him however as we got out the car and walked towards a small pathway through the branches. "Ok, ready?" He said, a smile on his face. "yup!" I said as we walked along the dirt track until a clearing started appearing ahead of us. "Tah dah" he said as we entered the open space, giggling nervously to see my reaction. "Omg!" I said, looking around at my surroundings, the smile on my face now matching the one spread across Karl's.
