                                                                      -Indy's POV-

     I woke up to a text from Chase that said he was coming over now. I got out of bed and started to get ready. About five minutes later I heard a knock on my door.

     "Come in." I said. Chase opened up the door and walked in.

     "Hey, ready yet?" He said as he sat down on my bed.

     "Almost." I said sitting on my floor in front of my mirror to put on some make up. I really only wore it because I liked to put it on. "So where are we going?" I asked.

     "Haven't decided yet. Maybe down to the creek. What do you think?"

     "I like the creek I haven't been there in a long time."

     "Well then the creek it is." Chase said laying down on my bed.

     "Is it hot out?" I asked trying to decide what to wear.

     "Yea, I was sweating just walking in here."

     "Okay cool." I said standing up and walking over to my closet to get some clothes. I walked in my closet shut the door and changed. "Ready?" I said walking back out.

     "Ready." Chase said getting up and walking out. We walked downstairs and outside to Chase's truck. Then we started driving down to the creek. We listened to Chris Stapleton the whole way. I think he's amazing. When we got to the creek Chase parked his truck but left the music on.

     "Want to fish?" Chase asked.

     "Yes I do." Chase walked back and got the fishing pools and a tackle box. I miss hanging out with him I thought as I sat down in the grass where the creek widened into a pound.

     "Here ya go." Chase said as he came back and sat down by me.

     "Thank ya." I smiled at him. We fished in silence for a couple minutes tell Chase broke the silence.

     "So how has everything been going with your Aunt?" Chase asked setting his pole down.

     "I don't know Dale and Amy don't tell me anything." Since my parents passing my Aunt has been trying to get custody of me. "All I know is it's pretty messy."

     "What do you want?" Chase asked. "I mean who do you want to live with?"

     "Dale and Amy. Not a doubt in my mind. I want to be here." I said looking at the water. It was extremely blue for a creek and quite large.

     "Good. Then I hope you get to stay." Chase said reeling his line in. "Come on."

     "What?" I said also reeling my line in.

     "It's hot! I want to wade in the creek." Chase stood up and walked into the water. When he stepped in the glass like water ripped. I got up and followed him. Chase had walked away from me a little ways. He was looking at something in the water.

     "Hey Chase!" I said trying to get his attention.

     "What?" As soon as Chase turned his head to look at me I splashed him with water.

     "Now you did it!" Chase yelled running after me. I took off not wanting to be caught by him. I ran through the water and up onto the grass where Chase finally caught me. He grabbed me by the waist and pulled me back towards him.

     "Dang it!"

     "What?" Chase Asked.

     "I thought I could outrun you."

     "Ha that's cute." Chase laughed.

     We walked around for awhile until we both decided we were hungry. We then got in Chase's truck and left.

     We stopped and got some food and then ate outside. We walked around downtown Charlotte and talked for a while. Then we went to get ice cream. After we got our ice cream we sat on a bench outside to eat it.

     "This is the best ice cream I've ever had."

     "Is it really Indy?"

     "Yes Chase, it really is. Or it could be because it's so hot outside."

     "That could be." Chase laughed. He scooped some ice cream onto his spoon and smeared across my nose.

     "Chase! What the hell!"

     "Hahaha I'm sorry I couldn't help it." Chase laughed as he wiped the ice cream off my nose.

     "You better be sorry." I said as I smeared the rest of my ice cream on his face.

     "Yeah I deserved that."

     "Ha now we're even."

     "Well I guess we better get going." Chase said as he stood up.

     "Okay." I said standing too. Chase grabbed my hand and we walked back to his tuck. When we got back to my house Chase walked me up to my door.

     "Good night Chase, I had fun."

     "I did too. I missed hanging out with you." Chase leaned in and gave me a kiss.

     "Good because I'm awesome." I said as I walked inside and closed the door. I walked in and saw Amy sitting on the couch reading.

     "So did you have fun?"

     "Ummm yea, I guess."

     "Well that's good. Dale went to bed already."

     "Okay well I'm going to sleep then." I said as I gave Amy a hug then walked up the stairs. I washed my face and changed into my pajamas then got in bed. I went on Instagram and posted a picture I took of Chase and I. I captioned it 'Fun day fishing with this guy!' Then I turned on my fan and went to sleep.
