Opposites Attract? Yeah, Right.

•how about a date•

(Aquantis' POV)

*next day from the beach*

I woke up and looked around. I wasn't in my apartment. I noticed a few baseball things laying around. Wait, am I in Scooter's room? I think I am. I got up and walked to the kitchen and saw Cubby sitting at the counter. "Oh, hey Cubby."

"Oh, whoa. You slept here?"

"Yeah, I guess Scooter brought me here."

"Ooh, now I see."

"See what?"

"Nothing." I squinted my eyes at him and looked in a cabinet and found some cups. I grabbed one and filled it with water. I drank most of it and set my cup down. "Do you know where he is?" I questioned Cubby.

"Scooter? I think in the living room."

"Ok." I walked into the living room and saw Scooter laying uncomfortably on the couch. I lightly shook him awake and he groaned in response. "Scooter?"

"Hmm, Aquantis?"

"Yeah, why'd you sleep on the couch?"

"Well, I figured you'd freak out if I was next to you."

"But, I sort of kicked you out of your room."

"It's fine, as long as you slept well, then it's perfectly fine."

"Well, thanks, want anything to drink?"

"Yeah, some water please."

"Ok." I walked back into the kitchen and just decided to let him use my cup. I washed it off and refilled it, then brought it back to him. He took a sip from the cup and set it down on the coffee table they had. I sat beside him on the couch and stared at nothing in particular.

I was snapped out of my thoughts when I felt a hand on my thigh. I felt a slight chill move throughout my leg. I looked up and it was Scooter's hand. "What should we do today?"

"I...um...don't know, I should probably go home and change though."

"Right...well I'm gonna go get ready and I'll take you back so you can get ready."

"Alright."

I waited in the living room, going through my phone. I was interupted when I saw that Valerie was calling me, I touched the 'answer' and held the phone up. "Hey Val, what's up?"

"Nothing, but what's up with you? I haven't talked to you since the day we went to the mall."

"Valerie, that was only about two days ago."

"So? I need to keep tabs with you now that Scooter is back."

"Umm ok."

"So has anything happened?" Man, where would I start with the explaining. Maybe I can just give her a brief summary of what has happened.

"Well, we hung out the other day when it was my day off and went to the beach. Then we went to that party that Cubby invited us- well Scooter to. Also we are going to do something today." I scrunched up my face and held my phone away from my ear. "What's up with that cute face?" I turned around and saw Scooter with a small towel drying his hair. "Oh, I don't know maybe it's cause Valerie is on the phone screaming her head off." He chuckled, then I heard Valerie repeating "omg" over and over, I took this as a sign to talk to her again, I held the phone up to my ear again. "Hey Val, I'm just gonna go, I'll talk to you later."

"What? Noooo."

"Bye." I hung up and tossed my phone on the side of me. I sighed and leaned back into the couch and felt the other side of me dip down. I looked over and saw Scooter had sat down beside me. He looked really nervous? "Scooter, are you okay?"

"Y-yeah, um, I'm good."

"Are you..sure?"

"Y-yeah, um Aquantis?"

"What's up?"

"How about a date?"

"A date?"

"Yeah."

"Well, you got one date that's it."

"Alright, I won't mess it up."

"Okay, what do you have planned?"

"It's a surprise." I shook my head and he stood up from the couch and pulled me up. "Lets go."

Scooter had taken me back to my apartment once we left his shared apartment. I quickly got ready and brought my wallet just in case and grabbed my phone on the way out.

Scooter ended up driving us and it seemed like we were going to In & Out burger which is, hands down, my favorite restaurant. I tried to hold back a smile but, I couldn't. I haven't been here in such a long time and with this date so far, he was doing a pretty good job. He pulled into the parking lot and parked the car. I unbuckled my seat belt and started opening the door. "Wait! I'll get the door for you." He sped out the car and came over to my side and opened the door. I smirked at him and stepped out. I walked towards the entrance and walked in with Scooter right behind me.

We both had ordered and ate our food and had little conversations. Once we finished we both left after paying and sat in the car. "So what else do you have planned today, Mr. Jones?"

"Um, we can go to Hot Topic, I figured you like that store."

"Yes! I can buy more band merch."

"Haha to Hot Topic it is then."

We got to Hot Topic in no time and I was skimming through everything. I made mental notes to come back and buy some stuff when I got paid. I looked for Scooter and didn't see him, so I figured he was waiting outside. To my luck, it didn't seem like he was out here either. I looked around until I heard a voice behind me. "Looking for me?" I turned around and saw Scooter himself with a smirk planted on his lips.

"Maybe..."

"Hmm....well I bought you something."

"You didn't have to."

"Well, this is a date, so I wanted to get you something to remember."

"Right."

"Can I put it on you?"

"Uh..sure." He took the object out of the bag and he moved my hair. I pulled my hair up to help him and he slipped the chain on around my neck. I looked down and saw it was part of a necklace the other half was missing. "Where's the other half?"

"Oh, I bought it with a matching keychain. It says 'Partners In Crime'."

"Nice, thanks."

"No problem."

"Well, my partner in crime lets go find something else to do."

"Alright." He held my hand and we walked around.

I could get used to this.

Wait! What am I saying?
