Author's Note: Thank you to everyone who read this story! I have an absolute weakness for the movies that JDM stars in and he looks like this. So ruggedly handsome and charming. It was so much fun writing this, especially since it was my first story for the movie Peace, Love, & Misunderstanding!

The entire week in New York had gone smoothly after Lennon received her grandparents' acceptance about moving to Woodstock. She had been looking at properties in Woodstock and was disappointed when she realized someone had already bought her parents' home.

"What's up?" Jude asked, looking over at her as they were sitting on the couch.

"Someone already bought my parents' house. I was hoping I'd get it, build that tire swing and – I'm babbling. I'm sorry," she smiled nervously, looking up at Jude. "I'm sure I'll find something."

"Well, you can definitely stay with me until you find a place," he winked.

Lennon set her laptop on the coffee table and straddled his waist, wrapping her arms around his neck loosely. "Thank you for coming here with me. I don't know if I'd be able to do all of this without you."

Jude grinned, resting his hands on her hips. "Am I going to get a thank you gift right this second?"

Lennon giggled, shaking her head. "Nope. It has to happen naturally," she teased.

"Oh, right. So, you're just teasing me by sitting on my lap like this."

"Exactly."

Jude chuckled, burying his face against her neck and holding her tight against him. The sex was mind-blowingly amazing, but he enjoyed holding her just as much. He never thought he would ever find someone he would want to settle down with and with time, Jude was sure he was going to pop the question to her.

"Are you ready to go back to Woodstock tomorrow?" he asked.

Lennon nodded, "Hell yeah. I miss it."

Jude smiled, "My girl."

"The one and only," she winked.

Jude stood up, holding her against him as he brought her to her bedroom. Majority of her clothes were already packed and ready to set in the bed of his truck, but Jude paid no attention to it at the moment. He lied her down and climbed on top of her, gently lifting her shirt over her head and kissing her along her collarbone.

"Can I tell you something?" he mumbled against her skin.

"Mm, what is it?" Lennon asked.

Jude bit his lower lip, placing his hands on the mattress to hoist himself up. He looked into her eyes; no time was better than now to admit how he truly felt about her.

"I think I'm falling in love with you," he admitted.

Lennon cleared her throat. She certainly wasn't expecting him to admit something as big as that to her, and certainly not early in this relationship. However, as the silence trickled, Jude felt nervous and wondered if he had done the right thing.

"You think? Because I know I'm falling in love with you," Lennon smiled.

Jude grinned, sitting up and pulling her with him. He hugged her tightly, shutting his eyes and reveling in her frame pressing against his own. It was as if she belonged in his arms.

"I am utterly in love with you, Lennon."

"Good. I am more than happy that the feeling is mutual," she leaned in and pecked his lips.

Jude lied down, collecting her into his arms. He kissed the crown of her head before staring into her eyes, gently twirling a strand of her hair along his finger.

"What?" she asked.

"I'm just remembering the first time we met. When I saw you, I was blown away. You were so beautiful. It's a good thing you made a fool out of yourself first, so I had a little boost of confidence afterwards," he teased.

Lennon arched a brow, gently poking his abdomen. "I did not make a fool out of myself!"

Jude laughed quietly, "Yes, you did. What did you say? Oh, right. Wow. You are the definition of a rugged man," he mimicked.

"You remembered?"

"Well, it's not every day a beautiful woman says something like that."

Lennon smiled, resting her cheek against his chest and playing with the fabric of his shirt. She shut her eyes and listened to the sound of his heartbeat. When she visited Woodstock, she certainly wasn't expecting to fall in love and decide to move there. Her grandparents always told her that things happened for a reason, so she believed meeting Jude and visiting Woodstock at the right time was meant to happen.

"What are you thinking about?" Jude asked, taking note of the sudden silence.

"Just how lucky I am. I'm moving to the one place my parents fell in love with and I'm going to be closer to you."

Jude smiled, "Yeah. You are lucky."

"Wow, so humble," she giggled.

Jude leaned down and pecked her lips, pulling back with a slight linger. "I love you," he whispered.

Her heart skipped a beat and a blush appeared on her cheeks. "I love you too.

The following morning, Lennon and Jude had gotten up early to prepare for the two-hour drive back to Woodstock to avoid traffic. After placing the last set of boxes in the bed of his truck, they decided to take a brief stop at her grandparents' house.

"I'll be back to gather more of my things, and when I get a place out there, you both have to come and visit, okay?" Lennon said, hugging her grandmother tight.

"If this town means a lot to you, then we'll visit. We missed out on doing that with Lily, so we're going to try and right our wrongs this time around," her grandfather smiled.

"I'll call when we get to Woodstock," she reassured him, hugging him tightly.

"All right. I love you, Lenny."

"I love you too, grandpa. I love you too, grandma."

Jude smiled at the both of them, hugging them as well before leading Lennon back to the truck. Soon enough, they were on the road back to Woodstock and she was extremely excited. Despite not having a place to stay at, Lennon was just eager to get back to the town that she had fallen in love with.

She scooted closer to Jude and rested her head on his shoulder, thankful that there wasn't anything separating them.

"What's up? You okay?" he asked.

Lennon nodded, kissing his cheek. "Just ready to get home."

Jude smiled, "Home?"

"Mhm. Home," she smiled.

"Well, you can get some rest. We won't be there for another hour or two."

"Are you sure? You don't need anyone to help keep you awake?"

Jude shook his head, gently resting his hand on her leg. "I'm okay. I'll be fine. You'll know something's wrong when the truck is upside down and –"

"Okay, okay. You can stop there," she smiled. "I get it. You're capable."

"Besides, I've got precious cargo with me," he winked.

"What?"

"You. You're my precious cargo. It's hard to be sweet on you when you don't understand my reference," he laughed.

Lennon smiled, kissing his cheek. "Well, I love it when you're being sweet."

"Oh, good," he chuckled, turning his head to kiss her temple.

"You sure you're okay?"

"I'm fine, Lenn. Get some rest."

She nodded and settled back into her seat, but Jude kept his hand resting on her leg. He glanced over at her to see that her eyes had fallen shut and she was slowly falling into a light slumber.

Jude couldn't wait to get to Woodstock and surprise her. When he was alone, he made sure to send messages to Grace to make sure everything was ready in time for their arrival. He was excited to see Lennon's reaction.

After about two and a half hours, Lennon awoke and noticed the familiar town. She grinned, stretching her arms above her head and looked out the window with fascinated eyes.

"We're here," she smiled.

"Not yet," Jude answered.

"What do you mean?"

"You'll see, baby."

Lennon arched a brow, deciding to snuggle closer to his side. When they passed his house and Grace's, she was confused. Lennon thought she was staying with him until she found a place.

"Jude?"

"We're almost there." he smiled.

Slowly, Lennon started to recognize the surroundings. It was where Grace had taken her to show her parents' old home. When she noticed the tire swing built on the tree out front, Lennon arched a brow with curiosity.

Then, Jude stopped the car and climbed out, extending a hand out for her which she eagerly took.

"What are we doing here?" she asked. "The owners of this place will be angry if they see us and –"

"It's yours," he grinned.

"What? Jude, what did you do?"

"It's off the market. It's yours now."

Tears built in her eyes and she looked up at him, biting her lower lip. "How? It said was sold already…"

"I know. It's because I bought it. For you."

"Jude, you didn't have to do that."

"I know I didn't, but I knew how much it meant to you and if this relationship goes anywhere, I'd be willing to move in with you when the time comes," Jude said softly, grabbing her hands.

"You even built the tire swing," she smiled, tears falling from her face.

"Well, I didn't, but I had Grace and a few guys do it for me. For you."

She wrapped her arms around his neck and cried quietly into it, holding him tightly. Jude wrapped his arms around her lower back and smiled, kissing her cheek.

"I love you," she whispered.

Jude felt his heart become full at her words. He didn't think he would ever get tired of hearing her say that she loved him.

"I love you too."

Jude set her down and kept an arm wrapped around her shoulders, leading her to her parents' old house.

Lennon looked up at him and smiled, "Thank you so much, Jude."

He grinned and replied, "Welcome to Woodstock, baby."
