I put on a few sprays of cologne before heading to the bedroom and opening the door just a crack. I almost gasp as I look in and see Patton in the mirror. He's wearing a dark blue jacket and trousers, white shirt, and grey tie. His hair is slicked to the side and his glasses rest nicely on his nose. I bet he smells amazing. He doesn't hear me as I enter the room and lean against the doorframe.
"Wow" I say quietly. Patton jumps a bit and turns to face me.
"What?" he says through a grin.
"You look gorgeous" I say, still kinda checking him out.
"Stop it" he laughs, turning back to the mirror. I walk over to him, and he turns back to me, adjusting my collar slightly before looking up to meet my eyes.
"You look stunning" he whispers. I smile and kiss him before we both turn to the mirror. I'm wearing a dark grey suit with a matching tie and the white shirt with the black buttons. I push my hand through my hair one last time before taking a deep breath. Patton turns to me, kissing my forehead.
"I'm gonna go start the car" he says, and heads downstairs. As soon as I hear the door close I follow, rushing I to the kitchen and grabbing the decorations, snacks and cake out of the cupboard and putting them on the table. I take out my phone and text Logan.

Just leaving now, see you guys soon!

I smirk to myself before I dash to the front door, and head out to the car.

Soft piano music plays quietly in the restaurant, the flame from the candle flickers in his eyes. I don't know how it's possible, but he's never looked so beautiful. We hold hands in the middle of the table until the food arrives, just laughing and enjoying each other's company.
"So, how long do you still have the old house for?" I ask him.
"Around a week or so, then the landlords take it" he says with a shrug, suddenly he's not smiling anymore, and looking down at the table. I lift his chin with one finger and look into his eyes.
"Hey, I know you're gonna miss that place, but what's to come will be happiest I know I'll ever be... and I know you feel the same....right?" I say, he smiles again, tilting his head to the side slightly.
"Of course, baby, I can't wait" He responds quietly. I take my hand away and smile widely at him.
"We can go back one more time to say goodbye if you'd like?" He grins even wider.
"I'd love that."
The rest of the date is quiet, but in the least awkward way possible. Just long periods of gazing into eachothers eyes, and falling deeper in love. I can't believe how lucky I am. I'm here, in a beautifully romantic restaurant with my boyfriend of around six weeks now, who happens to be the sweetest, most beautiful person alive. How did I get this lucky? I have no idea, but I know that I'll savour every second of it.
"Happy birthday" I whisper, after we've finished our meal. He breathes out a small laugh, eyes sparkling in the romantic lighting of the restaurant.
"Let's go home"
