        "I'M STRESSED, ERYN." Madeline says down her cell as she rushes into her bedroom, still wearing her outfit from ballet and rushing to turn on the shower so it's heating up.

       "Babe, you're hot as fuck." Eryn deadpans as Madeline holds the cell to her ear with her shoulder while yanking off her shoes. "Wear a skirt! That way you can be prepared for anything."

       "Denim?"

      "Yes." Eryn says and Madeline sighs heavily.

      "I need to shower, I'll text you."

      "You better!" Eryn says as they end the call and Madeline practically sprints to the shower.

      Madeline has been thinking about her and Tom's date all day, thinking about what to wear and theorising all of the possible places he could take her. What if she acts like an idiot? God, this was such a bad idea!

Madeline curls her hair after her shower and dresses in a denim mini skirt and a black belt paired with a navy blue, long sleeved top beneath a white jacket. She decides on a pair of brown doc martins above thick grey socks and a small bag that slings over her shoulder. Madeline decides to put in some extra effort and add some black liner to her waterline with a little wing at the corner of each eye.

Madeline full of nerves and begins to feel sick as she sits on her bed, bouncing her knee when Tom texts her that he's outside.

"Fuck my life." Madeline whispers before opening her window and clambering out, hurrying down the fire escape to find Tom stood leaning against his car with his arms folded and a bouquet of pink tulips in his left hand.

Madeline stares at him for a moment as a mile spreads across her face, her inner child screaming as she runs over and engulfs him in a huge hug. Tom chuckles as he lifts her up with his free hand around her waist while his over wraps around her, making sure not to squish the flowers. Madeline clings to the fabric of his knitted black jumper and laughs into his shoulder, her feet dangling from the ground as he hugs her back with the same enthusiasm.

"You bought me flowers." Madeline whispers as Tom gently sets her down and he snickers, eyeing the flowers in his hand.

"Nah, these were actually for my side chick." Tom says with a smirk and she rolls her eyes, hitting his chest. "I'm joking, I'm joking." Tom chuckles as he grabs her hand that goes to hit him again and leans down to hug her again and she laughs into his shoulder.

"You better be, dick." Madeline smiles and he hands over the flowers with a small smile.

"What was that?" Tom cups his ear. "You want my dick?"
