Why should I say sorry?

Chapter 12: Double date?

Gavin's POV
I woke up the next day and began getting ready.

I showered, combed my hair and was now standing in my boxers picking out an outfit for the day when my dad knocks on the door "Gavin? You need any help?" I looked at the door in confusion and say "No. Why?" He shrugged and said "Well, I figured since you really like this girl you might want to look nice on the first date" I froze and turned to look at my dad "It's not a date" he looks confused and asks "It's not?"

I shake my head and say "No, it's not. It's just an outing with friends" he shrugs and nods unconvinced and says "If you say so" then closes the door and leaves.

Unfortunately his interruption leaves the lingering question 'Is this a date?' Hesitant and unsure I decided to call Angela and ask for her opinion.

Angela: "Hey Gavin, what's up?"

Me: "Hey Angela.....is this a date?"

Angela: "Umm....what??"

Me: "Is this outing like a double date with you and Edward and me and Rosalie?"

Angela: "Um, I don't think so? I thought that it was an outing with friends."

Me: "That's what I told my dad, but he still thinks it's a date!"

Angela: "......."

Me: "......."

Both of us: "FUCK!"

Me: "Okay, okay, let's not get carried away here-"

Angela: "How can we not?! Our crushes are going on a double date with us and we aren't prepared!"

Me: "Ang! Calm down! Let's just take a shower and pick out semi casual outfits and check in, alright?"

Angela: "Okay.....you'll be honest if it looks bad, right?"

Me: "Of course. See you in a minute."

Angela: "Bye!"

I hung up and quickly went to shower. When I got out I immediately brushed my teeth and put on deodorant before styling my hair. Once finished I walked out and went straight to my room. I thought that it was odd that I didn't hear Bella's usual whining about how I can't walk around shirtless, but brushed it off as her accepting her friends invitation to La Push.

I dug around my closet before finding an outfit that I deemed acceptable. I put it on and sent a picture to Angela and received a picture in return.

After confirming that each other's outfits were acceptable, we face timed. I watched as Angela put her hair into a curly updo while I debated on cologne. Angela laughed before asking "Why do you have so many colognes?" I glanced down at my collection of 28 bottles of different types of cologne and shrugged.

"My extended family didn't know what my likes were so they'd buy me masculine hygiene products or clothes and hope for the best. I think that they were trying to convey that they accepted my gender identity, but were at a lost of what to buy me. For girls it's easy buy them dolls, play makeup, and dress up outfits and your done. For boys you're in a constant war with dinosaurs and race cars and other things that you can't just hand over a pink tutu and say go play because boys are picky" I explained my thoughts.

Angela nodded "In my family my parents had to make a list of things that they could and couldn't buy for my brothers, but the only thing that my family couldn't buy for me was makeup" I looked over and frowned as I nodded understandingly "It got to the point where my family would only buy me sweet smelling soaps" she then turned her phone to face an open drawer with various soaps and perfumes that I couldn't help but cringe at because I know that Angela hates scents like cupcake and watermelon.

I shook my head as I held up Bleu de Chanel and Allure Homme internally debating which one Rosalie would like more as I said "They seriously but you soaps that you won't use?" She shrugged and said "Apparently my cousins and other teenage girls like sweet and fruity smells, so they assumed that I would like it too" she looked at the cologne bottles that were in my hands and said "Do you have any Sauvage?" I glanced at her and picked up the bottle in question "By Dior? Yeah, it's a new bottle" she nods and says "My aunts boyfriend uses it and she loves it" I nodded and said "Thanks."

I then do some quick sprays and return to the conversation at hand "What about you?" She shrugged as she applied some foundation and moved around her things to find her nude pink lipstick "I'm not sure. I want to impress Edward but all these sweet, fruity things make me gag" I shook my head and said "Be yourself. Edward likes you for you, so your normal lavender and rose scent should be perfectly fine" I can see her smile creep up on her face "Thanks Gavin. So have you ever been on a date?"

I shrug and put on my shoes "A couple there was only one serious one and that was with David" Angela nodded having heard about David before "What about you?" I ask making Angela shake her head "No, none" she deflates slightly at her inexperience. I shrug and say "That's fine. Nothing wrong with not going on dates" she only mumbled an "I guess so."

It was 11 and Edward and Rosalie arrived in Edward's Volvo.

They had decided to pick me up first before Angela because of distance. I accepted that and after complimenting Rosalie I got in the back only for Bella to stumble out of the house.

And walk over like she dislocated a hip "Hey guys! Sorry I'm late! So where are we going-" Bella tried to get in but Edward quickly locked the doors. I frowned and rolled down my window before saying "Bella, what are you talking about? You weren't invited on my friends and I's outing" Bella seemed floored by this but before she could say anything Rosalie spoke up and said "We don't like you or how you treat Gavin. Why would we want to hang out with you? Because you have a creepy obsession with my brother and literally tried to follow him home multiple times? No. Just leave us alone."

Rosalie then turned to me "Roll up your window and buckle up" I shivered at her orders and said "Yes ma'am" before immediately doing as she asked. I will only say this, when a beautiful woman, like Rose, tells you to do something you happily do it. No ifs, ands, or buts and absolutely no questions asked. Because let's face it, Rosalie is incredibly attractive when she takes control.

We sped off leaving Bella in the dust and picked up Angela. The day went by smoothly and on our way back Angela nervously decided to ask "Was this a double date?" Edward and Rosalie looked surprised before saying "If you want it to be" Rosalie then twiddled her fingers and said "Actually, Gavin, I was kinda hoping it was so that way I could maybe ask you to prom?" I smiled and said "Sure, do you want my tux to match your dress?" Her face lit up and she immediately nodded.

Edward then nervously grasped Angela's hand and said "Angela....would you like to attend prom with me....as a date?" Her immediately nodded and we set up another outing to go shopping for tux's and dresses.
