7: Surprise

~Tyler's point of view~

Dallon and Brendon had decided to hold the wedding off for a little while. Just so everyone could recuperate. They told us it was because Dallon wasn't in the best shape. I think we all knew they were lying.

The next day they had got to the shop before anyone else. "It's mostly for Josh, Tyler. He pulled out his hair." Dallon said with a worried expression. "We're trying to give him a break." Brendon replied. I understood their thoughts and agreed it was what's best.

Eventually the whole team was here. The team who worked today that is. Josh, me, Ash and Jenna. Dallon and Bren were supposed to be off for their honeymoon and Ryan had a funeral to attend. I don't know who though, because when I asked he just replied, 'a funeral for my dead feelings'. Whatever that means.

"Hi Tyler," Josh said when he walked in. He gave me a wink and a smile. Oh how our life has changed together since the first day he walked into my coffee shop with his red hair. His said it made him look like a cotton candy king. Although I interjected he looked like an over grown blueberry. "Josh?" I called out to him, no customers had come in yet. "Hm?" He replied.

"Why'd you go from an over grown blueberry to an angry demon man?" I asked him. "It's more of a fire color. I'm thinking of going back natural, anyways."He said. "That way it'll be easier for you to make a coffee of me." He explained. "What's your natural hair color?" I asked.

He laughed, "You'll find out soon enough."

We were now hanging out at Josh's apartment. My legs were draped across Josh's torso. His legs were resting on the coffee table while a Disney movie played. "Hello. I am Baymax. Your personal healthcare companion. I was alerted to the need for medical attention when you said, 'ow.'"

He looked at me. I looked back at him. "What do you want, nerd?" I asked and he laughed. "To go away some place. Other than our apartments." He said. "Excuse me, I actually have a house. Have you ever even been inside?" I asked and he shrugged. "I don't think so. But that's besides the point."

I nodded. "Your point is my presence is boring." I scoffed. "No- I." He stopped. "Just let me take you on a date. Let me make you my boyfriend. Just let me show you I love you. Other than hanging out at our houses."

I blushed, "Please Ty." I nodded. "Take me on a date." I said. "Make it the best date ever. And maybe I'll finally let you boyfriend me up." I replied. "Deal," he said, kidding my forehead. "I'll boyfriend you up."

It was Friday. Nobody would tell me what Josh had planned. Even though they all knew. "No Tyler." Jenna said. "Oh come on!" I yelled. She was the only one here right now. "Why can't you tell me!?" I asked. "He specifically told us all not to tell you." Ash said coming out of nowhere. "You're going to give me a heart attack before it even happens!"

Ash laughed at me. "That's what you get for being so impatient." She replied. "So you're telling me everyone knows but me?" I asked. "Yes, all we know is he thinks you're different. He thinks you're special. And then he added something about your hair is untouched coffee. Whatever that means." Ash said. "Untouched coffee," I muttered as Josh walked in.

"Untouched coffee?" Josh asked, I could tell he was nervous. "Yeah," I replied with a smile, "Ash said something about you saying something about my hair being untouched coffee," I laughed. "I think that's adorable," I said as Josh came beside me. "Absolutely adorable," I said in his ear before kissing his cheek.

Josh showed up at my house at 3pm the next day. Ash had forced me to shut the cafe down and I knew the occasion was serious. At the moment, I had a blindfold on. He wouldn't tell me anything. "Lay down, Ty," he instructed. I fumbled blindly trying to make my seat go down.

"Woah!" I said as I found the lever and pulled, falling down all at once. "I don't want to get arrested because the police thinks I'm kidnapping my future boyfriend." Josh explained. "Also, please try not to break my car." He said and we laughed. He then grabbed my hand. "I love you." He said.

The air was quiet for a little while. "I love you too." I replied. "What took you so long to respond?" He asked. "I wanted to catch you off guard with my love." I replied. "You already did when you shared your feelings of liking me." He said, I could hear his smile. "I bet you look cute." He almost whispered.

"I bet you look cuter."
