"Come on Mia get off if him." I command softly. Being the good girl she is she obliges and I reward her by scratching her ears and telling her good girl.

"Are you ok?" I tentatively ask the boy.

"Yeah I'm fine your dogs a sweetheart..." He replied while getting up then he looks at me.

"Olyvia?" "Aaron?" we ask at the same time.

"What are you doing here?" I ask.

"I live a little way up the road, what are you doing here?"

"I always walk Mia around here but today she tugged me here."

"Oh wow..."

"Yeah..." I said awkwardly.

"Well I guess your dog likes me then." He said with a smile.

"She's always been a good judge of character..."

"Is she a good judge in this case?" He asked playfully.

"I guess, but I don't know for sure."

"Well I think I am and my friends and family would agree..."

"Well them I guess there's only one way to know." I said deciding that I may as well ask him...

"And whats that?" He asked intrigued.

"Go to Arizona with me." She said frankly.

"What?" He asked blinking with surprise.

"I need to go to Arizona to do something but my mom doesn't want me going alone..."

"Why me?"

"Because my best friend won't go because she's to busy with your best friend."She stated simply.

"Megan and Tommy were able to get back together? That's awesome maybe now he won't be quite so pessimistic..."

"Oh so your a Tegan supporter too?" I asked innocently.

"Oh of course Toms lost without her."

"Aww that's so cute." She said with a cute little smile.

"So you like cute things?" He asked.

"Huh?" She asks surprised.

"Do you like cute things?" He repeats.

"Err... Where did that come from...?"

"That he's lost without her you thought it was cute and you smiled."

"Oh I guess I do like cute things then..."

"You didn't realize?"

"No, not really..."

"Wow... Well maybe I should go to Arizona with you."

"Why?" She asked startled at the sudden change of topic.

"Because this way I can learn more about you..." He trailed off embarrassed. Cute. Wait what? Where did that come from...!?

"...Umm...Ok...." I say awkwardly... Why had I thought cute just now... I'm probably just confused... Yeah that's it.

"I guess I should ask my mom about it..."

"Huh?" I ask finally snapping back into focus.

"What you don't want me to come with you after all?" He said looking sad.

"What...? Oh sorry I had been spacing out what was the question again?"

He looked relieved and replied "I was saying I should probably ask my mom about it..."
