"Alright I called the taxi. Let's head back up and wait for it." I said. "Okay. So we can cuddle while we're waiting on the bench for the taxi?" Phil asks. I'm surprised that Phil is already comfortable dating me as if it's our like 46th date even though we started dating today. Well I guess we've been best friends forever. So why would it be awkward?

We walk back up holding plates of steak and mashed potatoes when we come across a homeless man with a blanket around him. He looks up at us. "Can you spare one of those steaks for me please?" The man asks. Oh god. Please Phil do some thing. I'm too awkward to do anything. "Of course." Phil said as he hands the man a steak. "Thank you." The man said.

We keep walking by when we get to the bench. "Thanks Phil. Thanks for speaking for me. I mean I wanted to give him food but I am too awkward and feel like I will mess up... Am I a jerk?" I ask. "No. I under stand." Phil said with a smile.

The taxi comes and we get in when the taxi driver turns around. "I'm sorry you cant have food in here unless it's covered so find something to cover it or throw it out. That's the rules. Sorry." The man said with a shrug. "Oh god- Okay Phil stay here give me the mashed potatoes." I said holding out my hand. "Wait-" I interrupt Phil. "Trust me." I said.

I walk back down to the homeless man. "Here you go." I said with a smile at the man. "Thank you kind sir..." The man said as he took the food. "Thank you so so so much. God bless." The man said. "And here I also want to give you this." I said. I hand him the last of my pounds I planned for this date. The man stands up and hugs me. "Thank you so much kind sir. You're so generous. Thank you very much." He said. Instead of awkwardly standing there I hug him back smiling. "No problem man." I said. He lets go and smiles.

I walk back up to the taxi and get in. "What did you do with the food?" Phil asks. "Well... I didn't want to wrap it after we just stole it and decided if I stole the food-" Phil interrupts me. "Well we still paid for it." Phil said. "What ever... If I took the food that I stole but paid for I thought that it was pretty rude so I gave it to the homeless man who was at the enterence of the train station." I said. Phil smiles at me and hugs me tightly. "Aw my boyfriend is so nice and generous!" Phil said as he kisses me on the cheek. The taxi driver turns around. "You two are my otp." He said. "What?" Phil asks. "I'm a fan of you! Just wait till I tell my daughter that you two are dating. Well... If that's okay with you." The driver said. I blush in shock. "Uh- Y-Yeah that's fine..." I said. "Okay thanks. She probably won't believe me so can I get a picture of you two kissing? Or at least on the cheek?" He asks. Phil looks at me. "Yeah sure." He said. "But don't post it or have her post it because we still want to announce that we are dating." Phil said. "Thanks. I promise I nor my daughter will post this picture." The taxi driver said.

"Remember you don't have to kiss for this photo." The driver said. "Okay." Phil said with a smile. "Say fuzzy pickles!" The driver said. Right as he took the picture I lean into Phil and kiss him on the cheek while he's smiling. "Aww... This is so cute. Do you want me to send it to you?" The driver asked as he hands his phone to us. We look at the photo. "Yeah... Please send it to us." I said smiling.

The driver nods and starts the engine. "So where you heading?" He asks. Phil turns to me. "Dan I'm still hungry..." He groans. Well you already gave the rest of your pounds to that homeless man but even if you had them you wont be able to afford anything. Good job Dan. You fucked up your first date with Phil. "Phil... I don't have any more pounds... Unless you want to go home and get my card..." I said in a weak voice embarrassed. "That's okay. I have some pounds. We'll use mine." Phil said smiling. "No Phil. I planned this date I wanna pay to make it perfect. Don't you worry your pretty little head." I said patting his head. "Perfect dates don't involve having one person pay. Please. Let me pay." Phil said. "Plus even if we go home how will we pay the taxi driver?" Phil adds. "Fine... But is it enough to afford food?" I ask. Phil counts his pounds with his tongue sticking out. "Not a fancy restaurant..." Phil said. "Ugh I am so sorry, Phil! This night is ruined!" I said as I slam my head against the seat. "Dan... You don't need some fancy dinner to make me happy. You're my best friend. How about we go get some Chinese food?" Phil said smiling. "But Phil... You're way too perfect for-" Dan. He's your best friend. You know that he loves Chinese food. Who cares if he is too perfect for Chinese food! He doesn't like fancy food as much. "Yeah... Sure... Let's go get some Chinese food." I said.
