Shadow's/My POV

I was writing for my new book when suddenly my phone went off. I stared at it for a second before picking it up and checking Messages. Apparently it was Peter.

Peter: Hey Shadow, it's me, Peter! Are you free to hang out today?

Me: Mhm! What do you want to do?

Peter: Are you fine with the Bookstore?

Me: You mean Barnes and Noble?

Peter: Yeah!

Me: Then heck yes! What time?

Peter: I can pick you up at 2. Does that work?

Me: Mhm.

Peter: Okay. By the way, are you fine with nicknames?

Me: Depends. What did you have in mind?

Peter: I was thinking... Darling.~

Me: Uh, sure. Alright, see you soon!

Peter: See ya Darling.

When that was done I checked the time. Right now it was 12:30, so I had an hour and a half to get ready. Running a hand through my hair, I took a deep breath and began doing whatever I needed to do.

Peter's POV

I smirked. Everything was going perfect. Get Shadow to hang out, fall in love, and take her. Nothing would be able to stop me from getting my Darling.

But I can worry about that for later. For now, I should probably get ready. I know we have about an hour and a half, but Shadow's house is about a 25 minute drive away from mine, and I don't want to be late.

I got up from bed and began to get ready.

Shadow's/My POV (Again)

He should be here any minute now. According to my pocket watch it was about 1:57.

To be honest, I was a little giddy. It had been awhile since I had the time to go to the bookstore, especially with someone I liked.

While I waited I decided to listen to music. Popping in an earbud I got onto YouTube Music and shuffled my Playlist. Ride by Twenty One Pilots played first, and I happily hummed along to the melody.

Just as the next song began to play there was a knock on my door. I paused my song, which I was a little disappointed at since it was Mama by My Chemical Romance, and opened the door.

Just as I suspected, there stood Peter, staring down at me.

"How tall are you Darling?" He asked, cocking his head to the side ever-so-slightly. I huffed and glanced away.

"4'11," I murmured. I heard him chuckle and glared at him, cheeks flushed.

"Don't worry about it Darling," he said, smiling. "You're perfect just the way you are." I hummed but didn't respond.

Without another word Peter gently grabbed my hand and led me outside. I quickly closed and locked my door before walking up to his vehicle: a black Honda Civic. I climbed into the passenger's side as he got in the driver's side and we were off.

Peter's POV (Again)

I smiled, listening to Shadow sing. After asking me, she played whatever music on her phone and began singing. I was a little surprised at some of the songs, but I didn't mind. It was nice to see her relaxed and having fun, even if she still carried her dagger.

Shooting her a glance, I turned right and continued the drive to Barnes and Noble.
