"Happy birthday, babe!"
Ethan hopped into Travis's car and gave him a quick kiss before closing the car door.
"Where are we going to eat?"
"You'll just have to wait and see."
"..."
"..."
"I'm in the driver's seat, Ethan."
"Oh. Right."
"Am I going to drive around without knowing where I'm going?"
"Yes. You rhymed, too."Ethan started the navigation on his phone, carefully telling Travis directions until the car rolled to a stop.
"Where are we?"
"I know its your birthday, and I know you just love fancy restaurants, but here's a secret about me; I can't sit still."
"So you took me to a tree on a mountain?"
"No. I took you to a picnic under a tree."
"Wait, why?"
"It's a dessert picnic. I brought candy, cake, and a few mini sandwiches."
"Can I put on music to play in the background?"
"... Sure, I guess?"While Ethan set down the blanket and started to eat, Travis pulled up a particular song on his phone and set it aside.
Ethan almost started choking on his food.
"Why is that a song to play softly in the background?"
"Well, this is nice and all, but I've made up my mind for what I want from you."
"I thought birthday sex was out of the picture!"
"Ssh. Let it be. Listen to the playlist and eat."Ethan looked down and whispered in disbelief.
"There's more of this?"

The next song would've been "The Loophole" by Garfunkel and Oates
Song after that is "Deepthroat" by Cupcakke
