Y/n pov

I walked into my closet after I took a shower and looked for some clothes I could wear for the date. I started rummaging through my clothes, looking for the perfect clothes to wear. I found a dark pair of ripped jeans, a white crew neck shirt, and a red flannel. I also pulled out black vans and a black beanie with y/ln on it.

Once I put on my clothes, I look myself in the mirror. My tattoos were noticeable underneath the white t-shirt. All of my tattoos were meaningful, except maybe one or two that were done while I wasn't in my right mind. As I looked in the mirror at my white shirt, I slipped on the flannel and started to adjust it, watching as some of the tattoos, like the ones on my side, were now obscured from view. I rolled up the sleeves on the flannel and saw my now revealed tattoos on my wrist and forearms. I pulled the beanie over my newly dried hair and looked over myself to make sure I looked good for the date.

Once I made sure my attire was nice, I walked into my garage and looked over my options of vehicles. I desperately wanted to try out something I bought online called a Jammock, which is basically a hammock for a jeep that is put onto the roof of the Jeep. I grabbed the keys to the Jeep and placed the basket of food in the trunk area and removed the top off of my black Jeep and brought along the Jammock and an extra bag full of clothes and a swimsuit. I drove out the garage and to Lauren's house.

On the trip to Lauren's, I blasted the radio through my custom speakers and subwoofer. I bobbed my head to the beat of the music, trying not to think about the thought of Lauren not liking what I had planned. I shook my head to rid the thoughts and drove a little faster, eager to see Lauren even if it has only been a few hours.

After a few more songs, I pulled up to her house 5 minutes before 10. I adjusted my beanie and hopped out the Jeep, walking towards the front entrance. I took a deep breath and knocked on the door. I quickly wiped my sweaty palms on my jeans before slipping them into the front pockets. The door opened and revealed Ally who looked at me with a smile, welcoming into the house. When I entered the home, Camila, Normani, and Dinah all came from upstairs and joined around Ally and I by the door. All of the girls gushed about the plan for the date as I told them.

"That's so cute!" Camila squeled. All of the girls nodded in agreement. We looked to the stairs when we heard movement. I turned to see Lauren descending like a goddess from the top of the steps.

God damn am I lucky or what?

She was wearing long sleeve blue crop top and high waisted shorts. Her hair was beatiful, sprawled across her shoulders, cascading down her back. Her eyes looked electrifying, hypnotizing even.

"You're gawking" I heard one of the girls comment as I felt Dinah hit me in the back of the head jokingly. I glare at her and finally notice Lauren was down from the stairs when she giggled as she took my hand and interlaced our fingers. I looked back at her with a goofy smile as I can't help but think she is mine.

"Shall we go?" I asked. She only smiled and nodded as a response. We started to head towards the door, but before we could leave we heard Dinah yell something about not staying out to past midnight. I walked with Lauren to my Jeep and opened the door for her. When she buckled and was settled in, I closed the door and jogged to my side and hopped in. I placed my left hand on the steering wheel, starting the engine, and my right hand on the center console. Lauren reached her left hand over and laced our fingers together, keeping them on the console.

We arrived to the beach and I parked in a semi-shady area. I could see a good amount of people here considering it was actually cool outside, but hoped they wouldn't notice us. I got out of the drivers seat and made my way to the passenger door to open it for Lauren. Once she was out the car, I closed her door and reached for her hand, as we walked to the back of the Jeep and took out the Jammock and the basket of food. I started to set up the Jammock on the roof of the Jeep.

"Can that hold two people?" She asked, noticing the size of the Jammock.

"Well, we are gonna find out, but as long as you don't mind basically cuddling with me." I smiled as she playfully rolled her eyes at my response, fighting back a smile. I finished setting up the Jammock and decided to play music. Lauren had walked more towards the water and was standing to were the water lapped at her ankles. I grabbed the aux chord from the inside of the car and connected it to my phone while I was in the Jammock.

I started to play music and continued to admire Lauren. She had already changed into her swimsuit and waded around in the ankle deep water. I jumped from the Jammock and took off the flannel, shoes, socks, and my beanie, placing them in a stack near the Jeep before throwing on some swim trunks and taking off the shirt to reveal my sports bra and tattoos.

I made my way towards Lauren quietly. When I was right behind her, I quickly wrapped my arms around her waist and lifted her into the air and spun around, hearind her scream and squeel at sudden action. I laughed before stopping, turning her around and pulling her closer as her arms wrapped around my neck. My arms moved down the her legs before wrapping her legs around my waist. I walked closer and closer to the waist deep water. Lauren and I were staring in each others eyes, no doubt that we were leaning closer.

There was no doubt some people on the beach were watching, if not already recording us. I could feel her lips ghosting over mine. I smirked and she looked confused for a second before she understood.

"Y/N! DON'T EVEN THIN-" the last of her sentence was cut off from her splash in the water as I threw my head back and laughed. I was laughing so hard that when Lauren came near my feet underwater, as soon as she grabbed and pulled them, I fell hard into the water. We both came up for air at the same time, Lauren pouting as I was still laughing. She slapped my arm and I pulled her into me by her waist.

She was still pouting at me while in my arms, so I placed chaste kisses on her lips until it went away. She eventually smiled at me and I connected our lips in a longer kiss. We both smiled into the kiss. I pulled away before we could deepen it, mainly because we were in public.

"C'mon let's go try out the Jammock" I said excited to use the new gift I bought myself, but mainly to be closer to Lauren.

"It doesn't look like it can hold two people"

"We're gonna make it hold two people" I said, so excited I was bouncing up and down.

"You're like a child" she muttered.

"But you like me anyway"

"I can't deny that" I smiled at her comment.

"C'mon" I said as I picked her up and she laughed and latched herself more onto me. I walked out of the water as she buried her face deeper into the crook of my neck. I looked around and noticed some people with their phones out, but no one came near us, which I was grateful for.

We arrived back at the Jeep and I climbed on top, laying down with Lauren now on top of me. I picked up my phone and played music. Lauren had her head on my chest and an arm over my abs, tracing patterns and tattoos. I reached over the side of the Jammock and grabbed the basket of food. There were some sandwiches, fruits, and other random food. We just laid there relaxing, eating food, singing to some of the songs, and stealing kisses from each other for an hour or two. Occasionally we went back towards the water, which ended with one of us splashing the other. Once it gets dark we are going to start the second part of the date.

A/N Sorry this took longer than usual, my bad. I have no idea what people do on dates, so sorry if it sucks.
