Give Me A Sign, I Want To Believe

The Unplanned First Date

April 12th , 2013

The US tour just finished so we’re all heading home. We told everyone that Allyson and I were dating in March. They were all pretty calm about it. Ally was happy about that. Andy has become Ally’s partner in crime. They’ve gotten close while we’ve been on tour. I’m happy she’s getting used to the craziness of the BVB family. We’ve got Warped in June so that’ll be a nice experience. Jon said Allyson could be the Merch girl for Warped. So she’ll be making money and she’s got a summer job. She’s going to school this month and next month and then she graduates May 31st . She’s really excited to graduate. The whole band is going to be there supporting her. This will be the tour of a lifetime. I can feel it.

We got home around noon and started to unpack. At around 1 we finished packing. I thought it would be nice for Allyson and I to go to the beach and spend the rest of the day together.

“Hey Ally, let’s go to the beach. It’ll be a nice way to relax after touring.”

“Sure thing.” She smiled and we went to grab our bathing suits. I wore black swim shorts and Allyson wore A BVB bikini top and swim shorts. She put flip flops on while I put on slip on Vans. Didn’t feel like wearing sandals. I’m lazy.

We grabbed some towels and headed to a beach that was a good 10 minutes from the house. I locked the car and walked with Ally hand in hand. We put our towels down on the warm soft sand. I took off my shirt and Ally did the same. We walked to the water and Ally stopped and took everything in. I smiled and picked her up bridal style while running into the water. When it was deep enough I tossed her in. When she surfaced, she jumped on me knocking me into the water.

“Ass. That’s what you get for throwing me into the water.”

“And this is what you get for knocking me over.” I pulled her close and kissed her. Then I splashed her with water.

“Jake!” She splashed me back. It turned into a splash war and I ended up winning.

“I WIN!” Ally laughed and rolled her eyes at me.

“Oh you know you love me.”

“I hate it when you’re right.” She smiled and got on her tiptoes to kiss me.

“I love you Ally.”

“I love you Jake.” I wrapped my arm around her waist and we walked out of the water and started walking along the water’s edge. We walked for a while. When I looked back to the sky I noticed the sun was setting.

“Wanna head home? It’s getting kind of late.” I asked while Ally was looking at the clouds.

“Yeah. I need to wash my hair.” I nodded and we walked back to our towels. I dusted them off and handed Ally mine because hers got all wet from us both standing on it. We put our shoes on and headed home. Ally went to shower and I made dinner. I made pasta and chicken. While the pasta was cooking I put the towels in the hamper. I finished up the pasta when Ally came out of the shower.

“I made dinner. I’m going to take a quick shower to wash my hair.” She nodded and I went into the bathroom. I took off my shorts and turned the shower on. I washed my hair and body in under 10 minutes. It’s a new record, haha. I turned off the shower and put clean boxers on and put basketball shorts on. I walked out of my room and saw Ally making her plate. I wrapped my arms around her waist. She looked up and kissed me. Ally’s amazing. Then I thought of a cheesy idea.

“Make the plate for both of us. Then we won’t have a lot of dishes.” She smiled and made the plate for us. She put a few pieces of chicken on the plate and grabbed two forks. We sat down at the island counter I had.

“This reminds me of Lady and the Tramp.” And just after she said that we got the same pasta strand. We looked at each other and smiled. We got to the end and kissed like the movie. Ally blushed a little after we pulled away.

“This is our first actual date as a couple. So this is really cute how we’re reenacting the movie scene totally unplanned.”

“This is our first date. Haha do you like it?” I asked. She smiled.

“It’s perfect.” We finished our plate and I washed the plate and forks. I put them in the dishwasher and sat with Ally in our room.

“You ready for school tomorrow?”

“No.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll drop you off and pick you up. Only one full month of school and then you’ll be free. And then you can spend your summer with me!”

“You’re sweet. You know that?”

“I do now.”
“At least vacation is in two weeks.”

“A whole week you belong to me. Oh and the guys. They’d kill me if I didn’t include them.”

“Andy’s probably going to take me out one day just for the hell of it.”

“Haha. That he will.” Ally smiled and then turned her head to look at me.

“Thank you for the unplanned first date Jake. It was really special.”

“Anything for you.”

“Your too much.”

“Noo, I’m never enough.”

“You’re insane.”

“Yes, but you agreed to my insanity.”

“I did. I made the right choice.” I kissed her and then pulled her down to lie on the bed. She giggled as I pulled her down.

“I never thought I’d get one last chance at love.” She sighed as she intertwined our hands.

“Well you did. We both found love after heartbreak.”

“I love you Jacob.”

“I love you Allyson.” She smiled and kissed me. She laid her head on my chest and I pulled the duvet over us. Trixy jumped onto the bed and slept in between my legs and Ally’s legs. This was a great day.
