"I have no idea what to wear." I said throwing numerous tops onto my bed and staring at the pile.

Today was the day Chris and I had decided on for our date. I had about three hours before he would be showing up and I wanted to make sure I didn't overdo it or look underdressed.

"You're going to a theme park and then out for drinks right?" Annie asked as she picked through my closet.

"Correct." I dug through my drawers for a suitable pair of jeans. "These ones?" I held up a pair of black skinny jeans with a few rips in them.

"Those are cute. Go with those. And this top for sure." She handed me a simple burgundy top with a small pocket on it.

"You've saved my life. Thank you." I went into the bathroom and stripped myself, taking a long shower to make sure I didn't miss a spot shaving or that my hair wasn't properly washed.

After I was done I dried off and put on a house robe. Annie then came in to help me dry my hair.

"I can't believe you're going on a date." She said as I straightened the last piece of my hair.

"I don't know if I should be offended by that or not." She laughed and pulled out her phone at the sound of a text message.

"Cal wants me to come over. Will you be fine getting ready?"

"I'll manage. Go have fun." She thanked me and skipped off to Callum's flat.

I had successfully finished getting ready just in time. Chris had knocked on the door and I was quick to open it.

"Good evening gorgeous." He kissed my cheek and held out his hand which contained a bouquet of flowers.

"Chris, you're too sweet for your own good." I accepted the flowers and brought them to the kitchen to put them in a vase.

"Are you ready?" He asked, sitting on one of the bar stools.

"I am. Just let me grab my purse." I collected my things and put a jacket on, taking Chris' outstretched hand and walking with him to the car park.

He opened my door for me, and I got into the car. Chris got in the car and we began our drive. The two of us jammed out to Chris' car playlist consisting of a bunch of songs that both of us loved.

We pulled up to Thorpe park not too long later and I gave Chris the biggest grin.

"I love theme parks." I said excitedly as Chris parked and we got out.

"I know you do love." He took my hand and we walked to the entrance. Chris paid for our day passes and we walked into the park.

We started off with some of the smaller rides and worked our way up to the large roller coasters.

"I should let you know, I'm a huge baby when it comes to big rides." Chris said eyeing up the biggest ride in the park.

"Don't worry, I used to be scared of them too believe it or not. I'll hold your hand." He smiled and kissed my cheek.

Once we got to the front of the line I noticed Chris seemed a bit more scared of the ride than he did before. We got strapped in and I took his hand, lacing our fingers together.

"Just let the adrenaline run through you. Don't fight it." I told him as the ride started up.

"That was amazing!" Chris exclaimed as we got off of the ride.

"I knew you would love it." He grabbed me by the waist and turned me towards him.

"I love everything I do with you." I smiled and he chuckled. "Too cheesy?" He asked.
