BAPA One-Shots

Gift

Bose's POV:

Chapa's birthday was next week, but here's the thing: I could not wait until next week to give her the gift that I had bought a few days before...

Flashback:

(Still) Bose's POV:

Chapa and I were at Swell-Shoe, reluctantly buying a new pair of shoes for Ray.

Chapa: "I cannot believe we have to buy shoes for Ray."

Me: "Yeah, this wouldn't be happening if he didn't try to hit on the cashier. She wasn't even a mom."

Chapa: "Seriously, that dude needs to chill out, sometimes."

Me: "At least he gave us a list that tells us the exact type of shoes he wants."

Chapa: "We do have to be careful, though. I'm sure that if we mess up one minor detail, he's going to completely overreact."

Me: "True, he's always doing that."

Chapa: "We should probably split up, we'll probably be able to find the shoes easier that way."

Me: "Good idea."

Chapa goes one way, and I go the other way. As I'm scanning the shelves for the right pair shoes, I suddenly look over and see Chapa eyeing a pair of boots that seemed to really interest her.

(These boots, to be exact)

Then, I remembered: Chapa's birthday was a little over a week from now. I figured I could surprise her on her birthday with those boots.

Chapa's POV:

Man, these boots really stand out to me for some reason. I have worn boots in the past, but these particular ones... I don't know, I just really love them. I wish I could buy them right now, but we're only here for one thing only.

I was about to go look for the shoes for Ray, when I suddenly hear Bose coming back with the shoes.

Bose: "I've got them."

Me: "Wow, that was fast."

Bose: "Yep, and I carefully checked them over, they're the exact ones that Ray wants."

Me: "That's good."

End Of Flashback

Bose's POV:

A few days after that trip to the shoe store, I went back there and was able to buy the exact pair of boots Chapa was looking at, and I was pretty excited to give them to her. Time wasn't going by fast enough, and I slowly grew more and more eager to give my gift to her.

Eventually, I said "screw it" and officially decided to give it to her as an early birthday present. I knew she would love them, and that she would wear them on her actual birthday.

Chapa's POV:

I was excited for my birthday to get here, but time was seemingly going by a bit slower than normal. Maybe if I stop thinking about it, time will go by faster.

Nah, screw that. I need patience, that's what I need. Suddenly, I hear a knock on the door, so I go to see who it is. I open the door, and I see Bose standing there with a decent-sized bag of something.

Me: "Uh, hey, Bose, what are you doing here?"

Bose: "Hi, can I come in?"

Me: "Sure, come on in."

I close the door when he walks in and we head to my room.

Me: "So what's this all about?"

Bose: "Well, I know your birthday isn't until next week, but I just couldn't wait to give you my present."

Me: "Oh... well, that's nice of you."

Bose hands me the bag, and I sit down with it. I take the gift out, and it says Swell-shoe on it. I took the cover off the box, and when I did, I could not believe what was inside: the boots that I had my eye on a few days ago. Now, I was really excited.

Bose: "Happy early birthday!"

Me: "Bose, this is amazing! How did you know I wanted these?"

Bose: "Well, I saw you eyeing them a few days ago when we went to shop for Ray, and you looked very interested in them, so I went back there a few days later and got them for you."

Me: "Wow, I... I never thought this would happen. Thank you so much, Bose."

Bose: "No problem, Chapa."

I set down the boots and gave Bose a big hug, and he hugged back. I still couldn't believe he was able to buy them without me noticing. When we let go, he started talking again.

Bose: "I also figured you could wear them when your actual birthday comes up."

Me: "That actually might be the best idea you've ever had."

Bose: "Go ahead, try them on. You finally have them now."

I smiled as I tried the boots on, and I will admit, I look amazing in them. I was so glad I had them now, all thanks to Bose.
