It was the next day, and Daniel was pretty surprised that he and the boys planned everything out in 4 hours.

The night before, when the boys left the girls apartment and went home, they'd told the girls to meet them at the pier the next day.

They all stood there preparing their places for the plan and Dani was truly terrified. He was shaking, trembling and stuttering a lot, all because he was way too nervous.

This had been exactly what he'd wanted, to tell Bri everything he felt for her. Even the night before he couldn't sleep because he'd been mentally preparing his speech in his head.

His heart raced, he was shaking and the anxiety was killing him. Dan wanted to get it over with but he also didn't even want to start it since he was so scared.

What made him even more nervous was her answer. This was the day where he'd confess everything and then ask her out. He'd always think she'd like him back, but things were so confusing and there were so many possibilities.

"Dan, you got to chill." Jack said patting his back. "The girls won't be here for another thirty minutes."

"Yeah man, and you got this." Zach comforted. "Everything will be alright and things will go as planned."

Corbyn raised his hand to speak up. "What if they don't?"

Daniel raised his head up to glare at the boy who was immediately nudged by Zach seconds after.

"Okay okay, sorry." Corbyn answered. "But yeah Dani you'll be fine, don't you remember she told you she loved you?"

Jonah nodded. "Yeah man, that's like a big sign. I even talked to her."

Daniel turned to him. "About what? What did she say? When?"

"Well, it's obvious she's in love with you. She told me. Not really, but kinda." He responded causing Daniel and the rest to raise an eyebrow. "We talked at the hotel when I think you guys were getting snacks. She technically did say she was in love with you, but she didn't know since you guys are still pretty young."

"B-but Zac-" Jack started before shaking his head pushing that away. "Never mind, but see? You'll be fine."

Daniel was still panicking but nodded to assure his friends he wasn't all that worried. "Yeah okay. I got this." He encouraged himself. "And after, where are we going?"

"I don't know, some place to celebrate the birth of our two sailing ships." Corbyn remarked casually.

"These ships are like completely different." Jonah added. "One is all like romantic and stuff." He said gesturing towards Zach. "The nice dinners, probably those cute picnics, going to aquariums, movies, pizza and chill. You know, the dates that everyone wants to go on."

Jack nodded, "And then there's this one." He pointed at Daniel. "Probably going to build a bear work shop or something."

Daniel lit up. "That's actually a good idea." He said making the boys roll their eyes.
