"I can't wait much longer. I hate surprises. She knows I hate surprises. Gah! She told me to get dressed but not for what kind of event, place, weather, nothing!! Nothing at all! Momma... what do I do?"
"I know you hate surprises, love, but I know what she's taking you to do and I know you'll really enjoy it. I can help you pick out clothes that will fit the date if that'll help you feel better?" Momma says comfortingly. She pulls Candy into her arms, giving her a hug.
They walk down the stairs together and when they get to Candy's room, Momma helps her pick out a dress that'll work for whatever Fruity has planned. Her phone buzzes and she goes to check it.
"Hey babygirl, I'm almost ready to head over to your house. Are you almost ready?"
"Yeah, I'll be ready by the time you get here. Momma is helping me pick out what to wear and all that stuff"
"Ok, ETA is 20 minutes. I love you! See you soon"
"I love you too! See you soon. Can't wait!"
Fruits is pacing up and down the hall of the pack house, going over every step of the date. They see something moving out of the corner of their eye and jump.
"Dude! Beebs! I'm already panicking about the date, are you trying to give me a heart attack?"
Beebs just laughs at them. "Stop panicking. She's going to love the date and besides, I was just walking. At least with all that energy go run on the land or something. There's really no reason for you to be so worked up, though. She's going to love what you have planned. She'll hate the waiting but it'll be worth it. I promise." He puts his hand reassuringly on Fruit's shoulder.
"I don't want to run," they say impatiently. "I want to text Candy and tell her what I have planned."
"I know you don't want to run but it's a better option than ruining the surprise." Beebs rolls his eyes a bit. "Why don't you message her and check in with her to see how long 'til she's ready?"
"That sounds good. Thank you for helping."
Fruit picks up their phone and starts to text Candy.
"Hey babygirl, I'm almost ready to head over to your house. Are you almost ready?"
"Yeah, I'll be ready by the time you get here. Momma is helping me pick out what to wear and all that stuff."
"Ok, ETA is 20 minutes. I love you! See you soon"
"I love you too! See you soon. Can't wait!"
Fruit gets into their car and takes a deep breath to steady themselves. They start the car and starts to head over to Candy's house.
Fruit pulls up to Candy's house and sees her outside stimming nervously while on her swinging hammock. Fruit sits their car just admiring Candy and her beauty. Fruit just leans their head back and takes a deep breath before pulling into the driveway. They get out of the car and just stand there waiting for Candy to notice them or until they can't wait any longer to kiss her. Candy eventually calms down and just relaxes back into her hammock. Fruits can hear her music playing and just admire her taste in music.
"Just another reason to lover her" Fruit thinks out loud.
Candy notices Fruit standing there admiring her and smiles waving at Fruit to come over to her.
They walk up to the porch, "Hi doll. How are you today?"
"I'm good, a little anxious but I trust you so where we are going is up to you and I am looking forward to it."
As she says that you can tell that Fruit's heart melts.
Fruit cups their hands on Candy's cheeks and kiss her.
"I'm so glad you said that! I've been worried you might not like the surprise element of the date. Also, do you want to cuddle here in your hammock for a while or just go straight to the date? I don't mind either, so it's up to you." Fruit admitted.
"I want to cuddle please" Candy says tugging on Fruits hands a little. Fruit accepts her request and sit down next to her so she can cuddle into their chest and mess with their tattoos. They kiss the top of her forehead and she squeaks happily. "Love you kitten" she buries her face into Fruits' chest and giggles. Fruit lays their head on top of hers and plays with her hair.
"Did you do the hair style I like for today?" Fruit asks taking a carful look at Candy's hair.
Candy smiles and nods, "i also wore your favorite shoes!" She points down to her shoes. Her baby pink high top converse paired with white socks with a lacy top.
Fruit smiles at her then lays her head back on top of Candy's.
We just stay like this for a few minutes. Candy moves her head and just starts to stare at Fruit.
"What are you staring at?"
"You, my Fruity" she responds and smiles up at her partner with her beautiful smile.
Fruit smiles at Candy and kisses her. The world around them just disappearing and fading. Then they both hear a whistle forcing the couple back to reality.
"Woohoo! Two girls kissin on my front porch. What a treat" Beebs says with an smirk.
Candy just giggles and curls up into Fruity's chest as they talk "Oh yeah, you like that? Well come here I've got another gift for you. You'll just love it, but you've got to be closer to see it"
He looks at them wearily but walks over anyway. "What's the gift? I'll have to see it from here cause I'm not coming within range of your fists."
They smile "Oh no the gift isn't my fist-" Fruit's say with a grin "it's this" Fruit says as they give him the one finger salute.
"Gasp! Not around the baby! Not around Candy!" He says faking a gasp.
At that Candy rolls her eyes. She also joins Fruit in flipping Beebs off. Fruit gives him a cocky smile and wrap my arms around her waist.
"I'm ready to go when you are" Candy says turning to Fruit.
"Sure babygirl" Fruits heart starts pounding in their chest as Candy starts putting her stuff into her bag and stands up. Fruit walks her to my car and open the door for her. She kisses Fruit as she gets into the blushing shifters car.
