(y/n's pov)
"what do you mean you're joes date?!" - your mom
i was getting ready in my bathroom when my mom walked in and asked what i was getting all fancy for. the look on her face when i explained the situation was one of excitement.
"he didn't have a date mom, the only reason he asked me was because i already know some of the people on his team and their partners." - you
"y/n, joe asked you to be his date! that has to mean something right?!" - your mom
"you're reading into this too much. plus it can't mean too much to him, he told me he likes someone." - you
"oh really?" - your mom
"yeah, he said he doesn't think she likes him back. i told him to shoot his shot anyways." - you
"what if he was talking about you?" - your mom
"mom. you're the reason i'm delusional." - you
"i'm being serious! don't you think it's kind of coincidental that he'd tell you that he likes someone and then ask you to be his date?" - your mom
"i don't know mom.. i don't want to get my hopes up." - you
"i understand that. just see how the night goes and you can come report back to me tonight."
- your mom"okay i will." - you
my mom gave a me a quick smile before leaving my bathroom, probably going to tell my dad her newfound discovery about me going as joes plus one.
now that i had finished curling my hair and doing my makeup, it was time to slip my dress on. it wasn't anything too fancy, but it was nice enough for the occasion.
i was putting my heals on and doing my finishing touches when the doorbell rang. joes here.
i grabbed my purse and slipped it my phone into it as i headed downstairs. when i got to the last step i noticed that both of my parents were at the door talking to joe with ecstatic smiles on their faces.
how come they weren't this exited to greet tee on our actual date?
clearing my throat to get their attention, all three pairs of eyes landed on me as my parents turning to the side to see me revealed joe. he was wearing a dress shirt and slacks looking incredibly handsome. i watched joes eyes scan over my outfit, a smile pulling at his lips as his eyes met mine.
"you look beautiful." - joe
"thanks, joe." - you returned the smile as you walked towards the door
my parents moved out of the way as i walked out of the door and stood in front of joe.
"love you both, be safe!" - your mom
"we will!" - you answered as you walked to joes car with him
joe walked out in front of me and just when i was about to make a snippy comment, he opened the car door for me.
"why thank you." - you smiled as you sat down
"of course." - joe shut your door and jogged over to his side
your parents were watching through the blinds, unbeknownst to you and joe.
"how are they so blind?" - your mom
"i don't know. i don't know how they can't tell they like each other back." - your dad
"i know right. it's so obvious to everyone but them." - your mom
