Hunter's POV

"Great, then I have the perfect date planned for both of us," I said.

In reality, I didn't have a single clue what the hell we were going to do for our date. Romantic dinner? Too cliché. Movies? Too cliché. A walk on the beach? Too cliché. Everything's too fûcking cliché!

I need to have originality, but because I'm short on time, I don't think I'll be able to come up with one by the end of this week. I want everything to be perfect and romantic for our date, no matter how cliché it can get.

"Oh really? What did you have in mind?" Tyler asked me as I continued to speed through the streets. Shit! I remained quiet because I didn't know what to say.

"You'll find out on Saturday," I smirked, glancing over at him to give him a wink. I saw him quickly drop his head and blush. Today's thursday, so I've got tomorrow to figure everything out.

Maybe I should ask Nathan for advice? Yes.

Tyler scoffed. "You don't have to lie to me, love. You don't have the smallest idea what we're going to do on Saturday," he smirked.

My face turned red from embarrassment. "Alright! You got me!" I exclaimed. "But I'll figure something out, Tyler."

"It better be the best date someone's ever taken me on," he deadpanned, but kept on a smile nonetheless. I mentally laughed.

"Everything will be perfect," I assured him, but I can't help the feeling that by saying that, I just jinxed everything.

My grip on his hand tightened as I brought it up to my face and kissed it. I looked over to him and smiled warmly. His eyes glistened in the rays of the setting sun.

"I'm sure it will, babe," he said leaning over to peck my cheek again. "I love you," he whispered in my ear. My head turned to give him a brief kiss on the lips.

"I love you too, Tyler."

"You've got to help me out, Nate! The date's tomorrow and I still don't have anything planned!" I was freaking out now. I feared that I would let Tyler down by not bringing him to the best date he's ever had.

"Calm down, Hunt! We still have time. What were your original plans for this date?" he asked.

I felt hesitant to tell Nathan because he'll think my plans are too lame or too plain. However, if I wanted his help, I had to tell him anyway.

"Well, just the usual... You know."

"No. I don't know. Why don't you tell me exactly what they are, Hunter?" he hissed, a sense of annoyance in his voice. I knew I was getting on his nerves because I've been asking for his help, and I haven't been giving him any feedback whatsoever.

"Shopping at the, a movie, and a romantic dinner," I said.

"That wasn't so bad, was it?" he teased. I playfully punched his shoulder.

"So? I don't want to take Tyler out on such a lame date. I want everything to be good and perfect."

"Tyler loves you Hunter. He wouldn't care if you guys just sat down on a bench at the park for a date. He didn't agree to become your boyfriend so you can take him to fancy places and spoil him. I'm sure he'll love any time alone he gets with you." Nathan said.
