the rising tide // jarissa

Jude was incredibly excited for the time that he'd get with the top six in Italy. He knew there would be a controversy over who he chose for that top six but Jude knew what he was doing. He was totally committed to these people and getting to know them. They were beyond that now, too. Now he was really building relationships and figuring out who would be his future spouse. They were here somewhere, and Jude could feel it. 

The first date of the week would go to Marisa, and Jude was grinning ear to ear as he was let into her hotel room to surprise her. He crept past her roommate, whoever she was, and up to Marissa's bed where she was still asleep. With a smile on his face, Jude reached out to tickle Marissa a little. Then he tucked her hair behind her ear and leaned in to kiss her forehead. "Wake up sleepyhead," he whispered, trying to wake her up so they could get to their first spot before sunrise.

disney dream // jarissa

Jude loved the challenge of planning dates for people that were still relatively new to him. With Marissa, he’d been looking for little clues about what she loved most during the pool party and when she’d talked about Disney and told him about her Broadway life, he knew that they’d have to visit a theatre for something. He’d talked to the crew, as he did before every date, and had everything all sorted out for his date with Marissa. 

Just after lunch, Jude is taken by private car to a place called Grand Park, which isn’t all that far from where they’ll be seeing a concert later that day. The place is beautiful and lush and green, and full of flowers and couples walking around like he and Marissa will be doing soon enough. He’s dressed in a nice outfit - khakis and a button down with a tie - and he knows that Marissa was told ahead of time to dress nicely, too. How he’s just got to wait, the big smile plastered on his face as he does.
