It's Sunday now, James and I are hanging out right now, in a couple hours Maria and I are going on a date. Well a 'date', I asked her if we could go out to a restaurant to talk about our fake dating arrangement. She agreed and gave me her number to text her all the details. Right now I'm trying to pick out an outfit.

" Ok dude, just pick something. I wasn't this stressed when I went out on the first date with Mae and you and her aren't even actually dating." He reminds me.

" Whatever, shut up. How did you know what to wear? Like what if I wear something like a sweatshirt but she wears something like, I don't even know what all those different tops are called. But my point, what if I wear something way to casual and she wears something more than casual." I babble.

" I just texted Mae and asked what she was wearing." He shrugs.

Why didn't I think of that? " Good idea, I don't know why I didn't think of that." I pull out my phone and open Maria's contact.

Me: Hey, what are you wearing tonight?

Soon after she text me back.

Ria: Jeans, a black top, and a leather jacket.

Ok, so, typically I would be fine with that answer, but girls clothing that could look completely different from mine. Is it a oversized shirt? Is it a cropped top?

Me: Can you send a picture, please?

Ria: Fine.

Once I got the picture I think my jaw dropped. She looked gorgeous. Good thing I asked for the picture because now I'll know not to wear a hoodie.

" Ok, what are you wearing?" James asks. I start to pull out the clothes, it's a white button up shirt and black dress type pants but more like sweatpants.

After I've put it on I go out to see James on his phone, probably texting Mae. " So, how's it going with you and Mae?" I look over to him.

" Good, really good. I think she might be the one, actually. I think she likes me as much as I like her." He reply's with a big smile on his face.

" That's good, I think she does like you as much as you like her. Have you two said I love you yet?" I ask putting on deodorant, I took a shower before James came over and was in some pajama pants.

" No, we've only been dating for a month."

" Oh, right, my bad, it feels like longer though, since we've been sitting with the girls." I say.

" Yeah I know right, you know when you and Maria start dating, real or not, I don't care, we should go on double dates. It could be fun, since we're all friends." He states.

" Yeah, I guess it could be. I don't know if Maria would want to though, but at the same time it could be a good way to get our relationship out, you know." I comment.

" If Mae asks her she would definitely say yes. They do whatever the other one wants." He says mater-of-factly.

" Mhm, so how's your mechanic stuff doing?"
