(1999) You sat at an empty table alone outside of the cafe' occasionally taking small delicate sips from the mug of steaming creamed coffee in your hands. For the past twenty minutes, you watched as the seemingly endless couples surrounding you did what every other cheesy couple did on Valentine's Day: give boxes of chocolates, huge stuffed teddy bears, expensive jewelry, and beautiful bouquets of flowers to their lover. This was the only day that you ever truly felt alone because everyone was with someone, your girlfriends with their boyfriends, your parents with each other, heck even your little brother had a little lady friend of his own and you?
You were a loner for the day.
How depressing.
Finally taking your eyes off of a certain couple you decided to try and focus on something else other than the lovey dovey scenes occurring. For a while, you mindlessly stared at a few trees ahead of you until you suddenly heard an unfamiliar voice.
"excuse me?"
You looked up and froze.
A boy.
A very very attractive boy stood before you.
Suddenly you were self-conscious and nervous.
"do you mind if I sit here?"
He pointed at the empty seat across from you.
Yes.
"no, go ahead."
The boy grinned and plopped himself into the steel chair.
Silence.
Complete silence.
That was until a very loud squeal was heard that caught everyone's attention. There on bended knee was a young man with a small red velvet box with a glamorous ring and a girl who looked like she was about to pass out in front of him.
A proposal.
Everyone, including yourself and the beautiful stranger next to you, cheered as the young girl screamed yes repeatedly before the new fiance and fiancee shared a passionate kiss.
All the sudden the feeling of loneliness came back. You slowly brought the mug to your lips drinking the hot substance with a frown.
"your boyfriend must have something pretty big planned out tonight to leave you alone."
This sent you into a coughing fit.
Stupid coffee.
"what!?" You choked out. "I don't have a boyfriend."
"really?" The boy smirked, narrowing his blue eyes.
"uh yea, why do you think I was sitting here alone." You chuckled nervously pushing back a strand of hair behind your ear.
He shrugged.
"It's kinda hard to not assume."
"whys that?" You raised a brow placing the mug down on the table.
He placed his arms on the table leaning a bit closer.
"because you're really pretty."
You felt your cheeks begin to heat up and your heart rate quicken.
"I'm Nick." He spoke softly.
"y/n" you stuttered still trying to recover from the unexpected compliment.
Nick still held a smirk on his face as he spoke to you.
"Well y/n, I don't have a box of chocolates or anything like that to give you but would you like to go out for some pizza?"
"L-like a date?"
"Not like a date. A Date." He made sure to emphasize the last sentence.
You smiled shyly before nodding your head.
"yea, I would love to"
