James' POV

Yesterday's party was fun.

Well, if you call watching kids from 3 to 11 run around in the backyard while you get criticized by your grandmother fun. Then yeah, it was really fun.

...Fun.

I need to talk to someone. Socialize with ANYONE who isn't a decade or more younger or older than me.

I'll text Jaiden.

Text conversation

James- Hey Jai

Jaiden- Hey

James- Wanna go on a date?

Jaiden- A real one?

James- Yeah we can sit and talk out by the park or something.

Jaiden- Sounds like fun! About 1:00pm?

James- Good with me!

Jaiden- See you soon!

Jaiden's POV

...I'm going on a date. With my crush. Who I'm actually dating. I don't think that's fully sunk in yet.

Do I have to wear something pretty, or casual? I don't want to misunderstand something on our first date...

Wait. This is our first date. Which means I can't screw anything up. Which means I WILL screw something up. Why did I accept? Stupid. Stupid stupid stupid stupid stu-

Okay Jaiden, let's not get ahead of ourselves here. Just pick out an outfit. Maybe purple, purple IS my signature color after all. But what if James doesn't like purple? What if he only likes girls that wear pink or blue? What if he only likes girls that wear orange?! I can't wear orange, I look horrible in orange! Wha-

Okay, calm down. James said he liked you and wanted to date you. You've known each other for quite a while. And you almost never wear orange, so he wouldn't want you to wear orange. (A/N: Kat- Obviously the important part.😂) You'll be fine.

Text conversation pt.2

Jaiden- So we're just going to a park?

James- Yeah, maybe we can get coffee too or something.

Jaiden- Ok!

So this seems pretty casual. I'll just wear a casual purple purple T-Shirt and some dark blue jean shorts. Yeah, that's seems good enough.

I change into the t-shirt and look into the mirror. That'll have to do. I pull my hair into a high ponytail. It looks like it's going to be windy today. Wind. My least favorite weather. (Didi- KATTTTTT BEST JAIDEN QUOTE EVER! Not including the philosophical ones tho)

Well, that's a good enough outfit. Not too bad actually.

Why is Ari staring at me?

Ari's POV

They're finally going out! *bird sniffle* My little girl is growing up! I'm so proud! *more bird sniffles*

Jaiden- Stop staring at me Ari, it's weird.

Ari- *Chirp!*

Jaiden's POV

They're so weird.

Anyways, it's 12:30 now, James should be here shortly.

*literally 5 seconds later*

*Knock knock knock*

Jaiden (while opening door)- Hey James.
