MARJORIES POV:

the second it hit 7pm i was out of the nursery, like the flash. i headed straight to tescos for 2 things. lemonade and crisps. all i could think about is how this was going to symbolise our relationship.
our previous failed date was going to have 'lemonade and crisps' and the thought of seeing his face made my stomach fill with butterflies. i could not wait for tonight.

REECES POV:

7pm hit. i dashed out of the door and headed to my place to get ready. i was only going to dress casual as it didnt matter what i was wearing. either way, it wouldnt stay on for long. i couldnt wait to see her after this crazy day. at 7am we were sat in a room hating eachother, but now we are meeting to express our love. i am still in shock for thus morning. yet i hope to god mia, or kenny doesnt find out about this. i cant tell marj how scared i am for her. i just need to enjoy the moment and pray in the morning they wouldnt be waiting for us.

                    ONE HOUR LATER
                                8PM:

MARJORIES POV:

8pm rolled around. i heard a knock at my door. reece was here. i opened the door to see reece there. he was wearing a baggie jumper, jeans and holding a bouqet of flowers. i had never seen someone look so handsome in my entire life.

REECES POV:

it was 8:00pm. i was so happy i wasnt late. i could not be late. i needed to prove to her i am serious about this. i pulled up into her drive and knocked on the door. i waited for her to open the door. i heard her come and she opened the door. oh my god. i had never seen someone so beautiful in my entire life. she wore just jogging bottoms and a tight long-sleeved black top yet she effortlessly looked stunning. i couldnt believe it. i had never seen someone so beautiful in my entire life.

"hello darling, you look absouluty stunning marjorie." reece tried to make her feel special, asif she was the only girl in the world.

marjorie blushed "oh stop it you, come in, come in.

they went up to the bedroom, and dont worry nothing bad happened. marg had set up the bed, she laid blankets, candles pillows etc. she had placed crisps in a bowl. and next to it a massive bottle of sprite. on the tv she had netflix set up. but they knew what they were watching.

"come on then marj, what are we watching sweetheart"

"it has to be titanic. honest to god its one of the best romance films out there. plus its cute for a first date"

marjorie loved being called sweetheart or darling. it made her feel so warm inside. it made her feel so loved. and the way reece said it made butterflies fill her stomach.

they pressed start. marjorie laid her head on reeces chest and he played with her hair. it reached near the end of the film. marjorie sobbed into reece. it was the part where jack died. reece was sad that marjorie was crying. yet he felt an amazing sensation knowing marjorie took comfort in him. even he teared up, but there was no way he would tell marjorie that.

"reece how are you not crying its so sad." marjorie continued to sob into him.

"i dont know i dont find stuff like that really emotional" he said whilsts stroking her hair. "shall i pop down stairs and make us something to eat. all that crying will make you tired!." he joked.

"yes please, darling." marjorie smiled.

the smile on reeces face when he got called darling was a great large grin. even all those years with mia, he had never ever been called darling. he never thought it would happen yet hearing that leave marjories lips made him feel so happy.

he went downstairs to her kitchen. he grabbed some salsa, cheese, chillis and tortilla chips. he was going to make marj nachos. he put the oven on and left them for 10 mins. reaching for the cupboard doors, he hunted for a bottle of red wine. grabbing marjories best glasses, he poured the wine in and place them onto a tray. once the nachos had finished he, placed them onto the tray and headed back to her bedroom. reece could not wait to see the look on her face.

MARJORIES POV:

i heard reece coming up the stairs. he knocked on the door and walked in. he stood in the doorway holding a tray with homemade nachos and wine. oh my god. my heart melted. this might have been the most romantic thing i have ever witnessed in my life. this has just proved my love for this man.

———————————————————

"oh my god reece. that might be the most romantic thing someone has ever done for me."

reece blushed. no one had every said that to him.

"anything for you, my love." reece knew what he was dong saying that. marjorie blushed.

for the next hour, they sat cuddling on the bed eating nachos. this time the film was mean girls. reece insisted marjorie picked the film, and he said he hated the movie. little did marjorie knowhe had watched the movie 15 times.. and not with autumn once.

before the film had ended, marjorie fell asleep on reeces chest. reece turned it off and they headed to sleep. they both held eachother and didnt let go. reece kept waking up though. not because he couldnt sleep, just to check on marjorie. when he was with mia, he never felt so happy. he knew this was the start of a long relationship. he knew he would love marjorie forever and a day.
