Author's POV
Lacey was ecstatic. That's is, to say the least. It was her and Luke's one year anniversary.
When she woke up, he had already spammed her with cute messages:
Luke: good morning beautiful.
Luke: it's srsly a privilege to be with you.
Luke: Lacey, I love you so bloody much.
Luke: I can't wait for today. We're going to have sooo much fun!!

She smiled brightly as she slipped into a loose grey tank and dark wash skinny jeans with a small slit in the knee. She decided on her perfectly white converse and blared her music as she moved to the bathroom to curl her hair (or at least try to) and put make up on.
One hour later, her hair was set in perfect loose curls and her make up was applied. Lacey doesn't wear that much make up, just concealer, powder, blush, and mascara. She likes the small, modest wings people create with their eyeliner, but rarely does them on her own.
Her phone buzzed and she picked it up, smiling.
Beth: hey babe, good luck today!!! Luke told what he had in mind....
Sam: your soooo lucky!!! You srsly have the BEST bf existing!!!
Lacey: thanks guys, I'm actually rllllly excited!! Do you guys want to hang out, maybe after me and Luke's date?
Sam: YES!!!!!!!
Beth: YASSSSS!!!!!

She checked her reflection one last time before grabbing her bag and answering the door.
She laughed when she opened it, seeing Luke acting so dramatically, looking off into the distance, leaning against the door frame. He calmly looked at her and cooed, "Hey there gorgeous. These are for you," passing her a bouquet of red roses.
I blush, and thank him with a peck on the cheek, and bring the flowers into the kitchen where mommy was. I giggled when she squealed.
"Have fun today okay, Munch?"
"I will mommy, love you!!!"
"Love you too darlin!" My mom exclaimed as I stepped out the door with Luke.
"Today is going to be amazing." Luke says to me.

Luke's POV
Well, saying today was amazing was a definite understatement.
First, we went to town and shopped, yes, I'm a guy and I like to shop. More like I like trying on suits and things because it drives Lacey INSANE.
Lacey was having a blast, too, trying on clothes that when she wore them, I had a VERY hard time containing myself. I'm known for being a total gentleman, and respectful of girls, but there was one outfit she had on that I couldn't fricken hold back anymore. I stand up from my chair and stride towards her, wrapping my arms around her waist, holding her against me. As our lips moved in sync, she tugged at the collar of my tuxedo, letting me know she wanted it off.
I chuckled at my thought, 'she truly is a bad girl, she just hasn't been caught yet.'
I returned the gesture by tugging against the material clutching dangerously to her petite, curvy figure. I pulled away, growling, "You know, you look fuckin sexy in plum, and you should get this dress."
"Oh really now?" She said, her voice beyond the barriers of sexy.
She began to suck on my neck and I was glad no one else was in the store and we were in the private fitting rooms, because I let her have fun for a few minutes before I took control, pressing her up against a wall and kissing up her collar bones (which are a lot less noticeable) and nibbling lightly at her ear, earning a low, quiet moan.
I knew I got her good because she inhaled sharply as I kissed her, earning an even more passionate kiss.
She pulled away, and said, "Babe, I don't think we should be making out in a clothing store."
"Maybe not, but it's fun," I laughed, leaning in to keep her up as I moved my hands from her legs to her waist so she could unwrap her legs from my body and get down.
We left the dressing room and purchased our items.
You may think we're rich because we just brought three tuxedos and a bunch of ties and stuff, and Lacey bought countless dresses, but not really. Everything was on sale, plus one of my best friends was working the counter. Shhh, it's our little secret.
In the next stores we bought stuff like sunglasses and hoodies and shirts and things.
We then went to the food court and had Nando's. That may sound boring, but seriously, ALL of my friends work at the mall, so do Lacey's. Me and Lace work here too, Lacey working at pretzel shop, and me working at the American drink shop, Orange Julius. Those drinks are absolutely amazing.
Since all of our friends work at least one shop in the entire mall, we get discount after discount....after discount. And we get to have food fights...big ones.
After the excitement of the food fight and cleaning up afterwards, Lace and I went to the cinema, watching the newest comedy.
Afterwards, we went to what I've been looking forward to all day: the beach carnival. We walked hand in hand on the boardwalk, playing game after game.
"HA I WIN!!! I TOLD YOU!! I told you I was boss at this game!" Lacey shouted, high-fiving her friends and pretending to glare at me.
"Ugh, fine, but I know you can't beat me at the hula hoop toss!" I challenged.
Of course I won, and me and Lacey had over 30 rubber ducks.
"I know what we're going I do for our next video..." Lacey giggled.
"Throwing these things away?" I guessed.
"Close...throwing them over the roof of the tallest building in town!" Lacey squealed. I laughed, but anyone would know that that idea was brilliant.
As I pulled up in front of her house, finalizing the night, I leaned over and kissed my girlfriend.
She kissed me back, slipping her hand up my shirt.
I rubbed my hand against her thigh, trying my best to control myself.
We parted, and said our goodbyes, knowing that Lacey had to be at Sam's house in twenty minutes for the sleepover.
