Xavier messaged me maybe a week later since he and I had both been busy with work, he had new clients and workers starting and I had was planning two weddings and been travelling all over the place.
X - 'Have you decided here you'd like to go in the the date?'
B - 'Yeah the aquarium. If that's okay?'
X - 'Yeah that's fine cause I've never been to it.'
B - 'YOU'VE NEVER BEEN TO TE AQUARIUM!!!!!'
X - 'No way should I have been?'
B - 'For that were definitely going and yes you should have been. It's the best place ever.'
X - 'Okay I'll come and get you in two hours.'
B - 'Okay you better be prepared cause I'm not gonna let you live this down. ;)'
X - 'Okay whatever just get ready and I'll see you soon.'
B - 'Okay Mr. Never been to an aquarium.'

I when and had a shower and got changed a pair of three quarter length, ripped blue jeans and a plain black t-shirt. I let my hair dry naturally and put on natural make up. I went downstairs, placed my backpack on the stairs and made some breakfast which consisted of some muesli, yogurt, some fresh fruits and a drizzle of honey. I went through to the living room and switched on the tv and watched the news.
I heard a honk outside and seen that Xavier was outside in his car, I stood up and placed my plate in the sink. I put my trainers on and grabbed my backpack, I closed the door and locked it and placed my phone and keys into the bag. I walked over to the car, I opened it and was greeted by Xavier's brilliant smile.
'So are you ready Mr. Never been to an aquarium?' I asked sarcastically.
We made small talk in the car but he was busy driving though traffic and I was too busy looking out the window.
As we arrived at the aquarium Xavier payed for us both even though I told him not to but once we were in there was no holding me back.

Xavier's pov
She looked so beautiful as we walked around the aquarium. She gazed at the fish with so much fascination only focusing on one fish till she'd had enough and moved onto a different fish in the same tank.
'Zave! Come here.' I heard Brooke shout she's got a nickname for me now, I was smile ear to ear when I walked over to her.
'When did you get the nickname for me?' I questioned as I took her hand.
'Since now.' She replied looking down at the hands and then looking back to the fish.
'Look! That's ones you!' She exclaimed as she pointed out the ugliest fish in the tank.
'Haha very funny.' I said as I portended to walk away.
'If your going to call me ugly I'm leaving.' I said sadly.
'No don't we haven't seen the turtles yet.' She said as she ran and grabbed my hand and tried to move me.
'Zave please come on.' She said as I gave her the silent treatment.
'Fine I'll go myself.' She tried to move but I held her hand securely.
'Let go of me.' She tried shaking her hand to get it out of mine.
'What is it you want to hear?' She questioned. I realised my eyebrows.
'Okay Xavier, you aren't ugly, you might be slightly but not as ugly as that fish.' She said smiling.
I gave her a small smile but that's not what I wanted to hear.
'Ugh! Fine Xavier you are by far the handsomest guys in the world.' She said. I then started walking when I heard her mutter something under her breathe.
'Your still ugly like the fish.' Before she could comprehend what was going on I had lifted her up and flung he rive my shoulder. Everyone turned and looked at us when they heard her scream, when they realised it was us we got some weird looks some saying weirdos and others know what was happening.
'Put me down, Xavier! She jetted repeating as I walked towards the turtles. She kept beating my chest  until I stopped walking and paced her down.
'Here you happy?' I asked as she went quiet and looked around at all the turtles.
'Yeah.' She said with a grin on her face.
We walked around the rest of the aquarium and ended up in the gift store  with Brooke playing with a stuffed turkey on the way home.

Brooke's pov
We arrived at mine and Abigail's apartment and he opened my opened my car door and walked me up to my door and waited for me to unlock the door when I turned around to say goodnight his lips were on mine. It was at first almost as if he didn't wanted to kiss me. His mouth was hard on mine, unyielding; then he put both arms around me and pulled me against him. His lips softened. I could feel the rapid beat of his heart, taste the mint of the chewing gum still on his mouth. I wound my hands into his hair, as I'd wanted to do since the first time I'd seen him. His hair curled around my fingers, silky and fine. My heart was hammering, and there was a rushing sound in her ears, like beating wings. We pulled back to breathe and he placed his forehead against mine I could see his lips were pink and swollen, I smiled slightly at that.
I liked into his eyes and told him thank you before giving him another kiss but this time I left him and went inside the house and couldn't stop the smile appearing.
I walked around the house and realised that Abigail was out with Ian tonight and probably won't be home till late, so I feed the cat and went to bed hugging the stuffed turtle Xavier got me.
