Blakes POV

I was sitting on the counter tapping my legs when my boss Jon called out "your shifts over Blake, have a good night!" I shouted back a thank you and sighed.

My fingers fiddled with the sleeves of his- no jakes- hoodie, I was sincerely regretting agreeing to meeting him in the park. What if he thought I was weird? Ugh.
I gathered my things and stepped out of Carl's Cafe. I know. Bosses name is Jon and business is Carl, but Carls Cafe had a ring to is that Jon liked, and no one really cared anyway.
I borderline sprinted to my apartment to freshen up before meeting him. Once in my bathroom, I ran a brush through my hair and fixed my makeup then put on a thin layer of Chapstick and brushed my teeth.
I slipped my shoes back on and ran down the stairs and to the street. I paused to catch my breath before casually walking to the park. It was only 4:15 so I wasn't that late.
I pulled out my phone and texted back my mom, telling her I loved her and good night and stuff, time zones, before shoving my hands inside the pockets and continued walking.

I heard him before I saw him. He was talking so someone or something and he was laughing. I finally saw him and began to approach. I realized he had his phone pressed to his ear and was talking to someone, so I waited until he hung up before approaching him.

I sat next to him on a swing and began to push myself back and forth. I wasn't that strong so I didn't go very far. We stayed in silence for a while, just pushing ourselves, before he chuckled a bit and got up.

"Your legs are so small it's adorable" he remarked, walking behind me. I felt his warm hand on the small of my back, he gently pushed me away from him, I nearly fell out before grabbing the ropes and holding on. I realized he was pushing me, and giggled softly to myself.

We hung out at the park for a couple of hours before he invited me to coffee, and i accepted because i was freezing. We briskly walked to Starbucks, because my workplace was closed, and ordered two hot chocolates. When we sat down, he started asking me questions about myself and I about him,  and in thirty minutes managed to learn alot about him, he loves reading (yes!) he exercises a lot (which you can obviously tell) and that hes 20 years old. We have a lot in common, but i was still surprised when he asked me out on another date. 

He walked me home and we parted ways, but before we did, he took me in his arms and planted the sweetest kiss on my forehead, and hugged me tightly. "Goodbye blake! " he said too me, "Goodbye Jake!" I replied. I walked into my apartment and slid down the door, sighing to myself.

After a couple of minutes i walked to my bathroom to shower. I gently washed my body and scrubbed my hair, and when i got out i decided to wear a pair of sweats and Jakes hoodie

I drank some hot cocoa and read a book, before passing out in my bed to the faint smell of him.
