During their six-hour date, Daniel and Cecilia found themselves lost in romantic and flirtatious conversations.
As they visited various places like the Cinema, Zoo, Haunted House, and Carnivals, their connection grew stronger, and they began to open up to each other even more.
While waiting in line for a thrilling roller coaster ride, Cecilia couldn't help but tease Daniel.
"Are you ready for this, my daring hero? I heard this roller coaster is even scarier than facing those goons earlier."
Daniel chuckled, his eyes filled with mischief.
"Well, I may not have my superpowers here, but I have you by my side. That's all the courage I need."
As they enjoyed the thrilling ride, their laughter filled the air, and Cecilia clung to Daniel's arm.
"You're my hero, you know that?"
Daniel flashed her a charming smile. "And you're my beautiful partner."
Later, as they strolled through the zoo, Cecilia pointed to a pair of swans gracefully gliding across a pond.
"Look at those swans, Daniel. They mate for life, you know."
Daniel raised an eyebrow playfully. "Are you dropping hints, Cecilia?"
Cecilia blushed and looked away for a moment before meeting his gaze again. "Maybe I am, Daniel. Maybe I am."
Their romantic journey continued as they explored the haunted house, clinging to each other for comfort, and shared cotton candy at the carnival, stealing sweet kisses between bites.
By the end of the date, they both knew that their hearts had found something truly special in each other.
At one point, they both even feed each other the food they ordered from a restaurant for a break, and they even take couply photos together to remind themselves of these memories they made, and for the future wherein time, they would look back and smile at how precious these memories were.
Eventually, they even talked about their lives where Cecilia revealed her background, and surprisingly, Daniel never heard of it.
Because in the alternate future, Cecilia mentioned before that her family were deceased.
And there was no such company named Jaguar after the Apocalypse came.
So what could have happened?
'Did the Kail families have something to do with this? It could only make sense since their fame was incredibly popular' Daniel thought.
'Though I have thought about visiting them, I should really prioritise dealing with them'
Under the starlit sky, their connection deepened as they shared stories of their pasts, dreams of the future, and the moments that defined their lives.
The cool ocean breeze brushed against their skin, creating a sense of tranquillity and intimacy that was hard to put into words.
"Isn't this sight beautiful?" Daniel questioned as he leaned against Cecilia, his eyes locked onto the mesmerizing view of the moonlight dancing on the ocean's surface.
Cecilia turned her gaze from the scenery to his captivating eyes. "It's breathtaking, but you, my love, make it even more beautiful." She smiled
Daniel chuckled softly at her sweet words. "You always have a way of making every moment magical, Cecilia. I cherish these times we spend together."
Cecilia rested her head on his shoulder, her fingers lightly tracing invisible patterns on his arm.
"I feel the same way, Daniel. Being with you is like living in a dream, a dream I never want to wake up from."
They sat there, sharing their thoughts and feelings under the starlit sky, their connection growing stronger with each passing moment.
"I'm so grateful to have you in my life, Cecilia. You've brought so much joy and love into it. This moment with you is like a dream come true."
Cecilia blushed, feeling the warmth of his affection. "You're the dream I never knew I had, my darling''
They continued to embrace the beauty of the night, cherishing every second together by the ocean.
In the midst of their romantic evening, a fleeting memory from the future crossed Daniel's mind.
He recalled a moment when he had been injured by monsters and the future Cecilia had reacted with fierce protectiveness.
"Who did this to you, Darling!?" The future Cecilia had demanded, her eyes blazing with hatred and wrath as she saw his injuries.
"It's okay, my sweetheart, it's nothing much," the future Daniel had answered, trying to reassure her with a smile.
"Is it the monsters again!? How dare those monsters do this to my darling! Fret not, I will use the Holy Smite to vanquish them from their existence," she had declared fiercely, her determination unwavering.
As the memory faded, Daniel found himself returning to the present, looking at Cecilia with affection in his eyes.
He realized that whether it was the past, present, or future, Cecilia's unwavering love and protectiveness remained a constant.
It warmed his heart, reinforcing his deep feelings for her.
As the tranquil sounds of the ocean surrounded them, Daniel couldn't help but express his genuine feelings about their day together.
"This day seems to be one of the best moments I've ever had, and I feel so fortunate to have spent it with you, in this beautiful ocean setting," he said with a warm smile.
Cecilia's heart soared with happiness as she heard his words.
Her cheeks flushed with a rosy hue, and she mustered the courage to ask something that had been on her mind.
"My Darling, I don't think I can bear to leave you after today, especially when we return home... so, that's why... can we kiss...?" she asked, her fingers fidgeting nervously, and her eyes filled with a feverish desire.
The moonlit ocean provided the perfect backdrop for this intimate moment, and Cecilia hoped to create a beautiful memory to cherish forever.
As Cecilia anxiously awaited Daniel's response, her mind raced with self-doubt.
'Oh god, I can't believe I asked him such a bizarre question! Does... he think I'm weird from being so direct?' Her thoughts were in disarray.
However, when Daniel responded with a bright smile and a hint of laughter in his voice, her worries began to melt away.
"Of course, Love... so why not?" he replied, his eyes filled with affection.
Cecilia couldn't help but smile warmly at his reaction, relieved that he didn't find her request strange.
But then she realized she was uncertain about how to proceed.
Despite having gone on countless dates with Daniel in the future, they had never engaged in actions like kissing or anything more intimate.
Daniel, in this moment of romance, realized something profound.
He never thought that this day could come, and he regretted not responding to the love that Cecilia deserved in the future.
He had hesitated then, and it haunted him.
But now, he decided to be different.
He wanted to take the lead and not let hesitation hold him back. This was his chance to make up for the regrets of the future, a chance to create beautiful memories with Cecilia.
