I FaceTime Griffin and he answers on the second ring.

"Hey." Griffin says, smiling.

"Hey, how's your honeymoon?" I ask.

"Good, really good." Griffin says.

"Why are you smiling like that?" I ask.

"Remember when I told you I'd be a dad in a year?" Griffin asks.

"Uh, yeah." I say.

"Might happen in 9 months." He says.

"Ew!" I say as he laughs.

"I didn't need to know that." I say, shutting my eyes.

"So what's up with you?" He asks.

"Nothing really. I texted Y/n to see if she wanted to hang out but she never responded." I say.

"She probably won't respond at all." He says.

"What?" I ask.

"Allison's been pretty down today, said it was their dad's birthday." He says.

"Seriously?" I ask.

"Yeah, he would've been... 54 today... I think." He says.

"I'm gonna go check on her." I say.

"Okay, call me later." He says.

"Alright." I say.

He hangs up and I sigh.

25 minutes later...

I ring the doorbell and it opens a few seconds later.

"How'd you get in?" Y/n asks.

"I just guess the code and the gate opened." I say.

"Oh." Y/n says.

"I texted you." I say.

"I know, I just can't do that shit today." Y/n mumbles.

"Because of your dad?" I ask.

"Mhm." Y/n says.

"So how about I take you to go get some flowers and surprise him for his birthday?" I ask.

"You'd do that for me?" Y/n asks.

"Of course." I say.

She smiles and hugs me. I smile and rub her back.

30 minutes later...

"What about these? The yellow ones?" I ask.

"The purple ones. Cause I remember he used to always say that purple was a real man's color. Oh, and his favorite song was Purple Rain." Y/n says, grabbing the bunch of flowers.

"What's the correlation?" I ask.

"I dunno." Y/n says.

I laugh and she smiles.
