SONG: DAYLIGHT; TAYLOR SWIFT

The next morning when Bethany wakes up she notices her face feeling sore. Like that feeling after you've been smiling really hard for a really long time.

Was I seriously smiling in my sleep? Wow. This guy has ruined me.

The previous night had been one of the most memorable nights of Bethany's life. Even though she and Brock were simply walking around San Francisco Bethany saw a different side of Brock. Before last night, Bethany hadn't really met Brock. She had met the comforting side of Brock and the shooting his shot side of Brock but last night she met all of Brock. And... she really, really, liked Brock.

Bethany gets pulled from her reminiscing by her phone ringing.

Incoming Call:
Ride or Die 💘

Before Bethany could say anything Adriana cuts her off.

"Would you mind telling me why you were all over the city last night?"

"How do you know I was all over the city last night?"

"Girl, you gave me your location."

"How could I forget?"

"That sounds like another question for you to answer."

"I was with Brock."

"OMG!! Shut up! You guys went on a date and you didn't tell me?!"

"I'm sorryyyy... I still have barely processed it myself."

"Well, how was it?!'

"It was great! We just walked around the city taking in the beautiful sights."

"Are you sure you weren't taking in the sight of the man walking next to you?"

"Adriana... only a few glances here and there."

"Ha! Well, girl, I'm so happy for you!"

"Thank you babe. I'll call you later?"

"I'll answer!"

Bethany hangs up and goes to Instagram scrolling through the posts. When she's all caught up she goes to go through stories. Bethany notices Brock posted and almost immediately opens his story.

Oh my God...

It was the photo Brock had taken of him and Bethany in front of the bridge. Daylight by Taylor Swift was playing in the background.

Ok... he's perfect.

On the story he had written six words.

'A beautiful view with a beauty 💕'

There was that feeling again. Bethany was smiling so hard her face hurt. Before she could admire the post anymore a notification appeared on the top of Bethany's phone screen.

IMessage:
Brock 🫶🏼

'Good morning ❤️'

And Bethany was smiling again.

I once believed love would be black and white, but it's golden.
