I've missed my main bitch! Let's goo!

*Leighton's POV*

"You don't think it's too corny?" I asked Aaliyah over facetime, flipping the camera back to show my face, eyeing my basket of cliché romance crap.

"Leigh, he'll drop his pants the second he sees this shit! We both know it! He's been practically begging you to wine and dine him, he'll love it!" She continued to encourage me.

"Do you think he'll make fun of me for getting sparkling juice? Should I buy him wine? I don't know what kind of wine he likes though" I worried, scanning the signs above the aisles.

"Babes, he loves you. I doubt he'll care if it's wine or fizzy apple juice in his cup" She teased and I groaned.

"I don't know how to do this Aaliyah! Colby was the one who did the romantic shit-" I complained, Aaliyah interrupting me, "So now it's your turn! 50/50 remember" and I sighed, "But it's so hard! I don't know what he likes"

"That's the fun of dating Leighton! You get to learn and explore each other" She smirked, my ears getting warm, glancing around me, subconsciously turning down my phone volume.

"Aaliyah, shut up!" I hissed, rolling my eyes at her snickering.

"Bubs, it isn't hard. If you think it's cute, or could taste good, or be fun to do, buy it. Do it. Have fun. Dates are fun!"

"Do I need to plan multiple actives? Like a birthday party?"

She laughed, and I felt extremely embarrassed as she spoke, regretting even asking for her help. "Cook him something, or order something. Maybe buy a treat, you got the sparkling juice and you're going to watch a movie, no? You're fine"

"So I don't need like a game.. or puzzle or something?"

"If you want to do that whilst watching a movie, go ahead, but you're just fine cuddling on the couch and watching a movie"

"Alright.. I'll text you later with some photos of the set up"

"Alright, good luck babes! He'll love it!"

"Love you bye-"

"Bye-"

"-WAIT!" I spoke frantically, getting glances from the people around me.

"What?"

"Do I cook with him, or do I cook for him?"

"Does he like cooking with you?"

"He said he wanted to learn.."

"Like you're a good chef!" She laughed and I pouted.

"I'm trying!"

"That's so cute! You're trying together!" She squealed, grinning at me, "Most men want it cooked for them, but you could do it together if you wanted to add another activity"

"Fuck this shit" I hissed, balling up the fairy lights and throwing them onto the floor.

Stupid Colby wanting stupid romantic bullshit.

I was trying to prep my apartment for tonight, and it wasn't going well.

I spent the past twenty minutes trying to hang those cute lights, wanting to make my apartment look like Pinterest, but I was not a Pinterest bitch, clearly, since the lights were now balled up in front of me.

I stared down at the lights, feeling defeated and determined all at the same time.

I was determined to make it look cute in here, but I was pissed off that it was so hard to do.
