After hanging out with the turtles, Jake made his way over to April's apartment to begin their date. He was all dressed up in a nice suit and was ready to have a fun time.

Jake took a deep breath as he prepared to knock on April's door and take her out. He was nervous, but he knew he could do it.

Jake then knocked on April's door and waited for her to answer. 'This is okay. . . don't be too nervous.' He thought, reassuring himself. 'She's your girlfriend. There's no reason to worry about anything.'

At that moment, the door opened and April was standing there. And she was wearing a beautiful yellow dress and white heeled sandals. And her hair was tied up in a bun, rather than her usual ponytail.

"Hey, Jake." April said with a smile on her face.

"Hey, April." Jake said as a faint blush appeared on his face. "Wow. . . you look beautiful."

"Aww, thanks." April said as she blushed. "I thought I'd look my absolute best for tonight. Though, shopping for this outfit wasn't easy."

"I bet." Jake said.

"So, where are we going?" April asked.

"Well, since I don't have tons of money, I figured we'd keep it simple." Jake said. "But you have to wear this."

As Jake said that, he pulled out a blindfold and put it over April's eyes.

"Jake, what's this for?" April asked.

"It's for me to lead you to our date spot." Jake said. "Trust me, it's all gonna be worth it."

"Okay, I trust you." April said.

With that, Jake grabbed April's hand and led her to their special spot. But to do that, Jake would have to secretly get a ride.

He texted something on his phone and soon enough, there was a faint outline of a car driving up to them. It then stopped in front of them as the passenger window rolled down, revealing a blue alien with a big head in the front seat. His name is Megamind.

"Need a lift?" Megamind asked, in a different tone of voice, in a poor attempt to disguise his original voice.

"Is that Megamind?" April asked.

"He's gonna drive us to our destination." Jake said. "So, buckle up."

The two of them then got into the car as Megamind drove off to their next destination.

April was still wearing the blindfold as she could only imagine where they could possibly be going right now.

. . .

About an hour or two later, they arrived at their destination. They were now back at April's farmhouse in the woods.

"Thanks for the ride, Megamind." Jake said.

"I'll be back to pick you up later." Megamind said, before driving off.

"We're finally here?" April asked. "That took forever."

April then sniffed the air as she recognized where they were. "Wait, are we at my old family farmhouse?" She asked.

"Yes." Jake said. "But that's not the special part. Keep following me."

Jake then grabbed April's hand and brought her around to the back of the farmhouse.

"Alright, it's time to reveal the surprise." Jake said.

Jake then took off the blindfold, so April could see what's in front of her. And when she saw what was in front of her, she gasped in shock to see the setup in front of her.
