lilac and grant were strolling down the street, hand in hand, as friends, of course. it was around 5pm, and they spent all day shopping. lilac wanted to use her own money but grant insisted to put it on his card. he even carried the bags on his free arm.
his palms were starting to sweat and lilac noticed it.
"are you alright grant?" she asked, concerned.
"uh yeah. i'm trying to think of how i can confess to that girl that i love her."
"you don't want to tell her straight up, right?"
"no. not really." he shook his head.
"i want it to be romantic. make her remember it for the rest of her life. it takes a lot for someone to say those three words. i don't just love her–i'm in love with y-her." he saved himself from spilling his secret, and thanked whatever ultimate being that allowed him to do so.
"girls like unexpected things. surprises. key to a girl's heart is surprises. hell, if a guy took me out to buy socks suddenly, out of the blue, i'd start crying." she giggled.
"so like a picnic on the beach? with candles?" he asked.
"god, if i were her i'd love that. to me, that's very romantic. of course, we aren't talking about me..does she like mushy romantic things?"
"you know what? i think she does."
"great! i can buy the candles—"
"no." he cut her off.
"w..-why not?"
"you only said you were helping with the planning, nut." grant joked with her.
"right. i won't buy the candles." she leaned her head on his shoulder.
"when do you plan on doing this?" she asked, curious.
"she doesn't live around here, so whenever she can fly in next." he explained, biting his lip.
"oh..gotcha."
"what kind of candles do girls like? what kind do you like?" he asked, a smirk placed on his lips.
"girls like red candles, it makes it more romantic. me personally, red ones are smelly and they don't burn long. i like fresh linen candles. why do you ask?"
"i don't know, maybe you guys like the same candles, i'll have to ask her."
"yeah." she responded plainly, wishing it was her instead of this other girl.
if only she knew.
