If they only knew

Dates and long walks

Zach and I have been sitting in the restaurant for about 15 minutes now and Abby swears she's almost here man but I don't know. She could be half way across town for some reason and we'd just be sitting here and probably eat all the food cause thats just the type of guys we are.

The door opens and the beautiful little bell goes off. I turn around to see Abby in a lovely lace dress and a black jacket over top. Beautiful.

She comes over and sits on my lap and she smiles.

"Hey babe." She kisses me softly and I grab her waist. It last for a moment but that moment is amazing.

"Hey gorgeous. You look stunning by the way."

"Yeah you look great Ab's." Zach pulls up his menu.

"I guess you really want to order huh?" She rolls her eyes and grins.

"Yes. More than you want to show off everything to the world." She looks down and her face becomes red.

She gets off my lap and pulls up a chair still kind of covering her face. At this point Zach is basically laughing his ass off and I'm chuckling but if I laugh she'll accuse me of taking his side. it was funny but gotta be respectful to both my favourite people.

"Alright lets get this food." Zach lists of a good 1/8th of the menu and gives Kim his menu. Abby and I order a stir fry knowing full well that Zach is gonna share with us. We hand our menu's to Kim and immediatly turn back to each other.

"Okay so you know that lady I've bee keeping you updated on at the bar?"

"Oh oh oh you mean the one who's been debating ordering that bullshit complete fire drink to completely murder one of her friends?" Zach jumps in.

"Yes. Well, she ordered it, but the plot twist is her friend wasn't there."

"But how's she gonna kill-"

"Shh i'm getting there. So naturally I'm like wheres your friend gal? She turns to me and says: Some friends ain't worth shit kid. and she fucking downs the whole drink right then and there."

"Woah! Lady got spunk!" This lady has been debating it for like a week we just had to know where it went. I've also had that drink and let me tell yah if there could be one thing I choose that humanity never invented, it would indeed be that.

"Well now I guess you gotta look for new people to entertain our terrible souls." Zach clutches his chest and acts all dramatic. Now that I think about it, he'd actually be a great actor to be honest. He's not very outgoing to begin with but if you give him a job or a role, he'll do it. Maybe I should talk to him about that sometime.

"Hey Zach wanna go on a walk tonight." He nods.

"Hey I wanna come." Abby crosses her arms.

"You don't like cigarettes silly." She rolls her eyes.

"Yeah you're right. I still hate that you do it."

"But it-"

"Helps you cope or whatever. I know. Just don't do it all the time and around me thanks."

Zach coughs in an almost sarcastic way. I roll my eyes as a sign to tell him to chill out. He understands that people have preferences and stuff but Abby mentions it every other day he's getting a little tired. He still loves her though don't get me wrong.

Kim arrives with a few parts of our order, or should I say Zach's order, and says she'll return with the rest. I glance at what he's ordered. All good choices.

"Hope you enjoy!" Kims been serving us since we first moved into our apartment. Its been a few months now but when we eat out, heres where we come. The first night actually we moved in I didn't have enough ingredients to cook with because dumbass Zach ate half of it. It was quite tragic but I'm glad we found this place.

"Thanks Kim." Abby smiles warmly.

"So lets dig in." Zach could eat an elephant and not gain a pound and be hungry after. I still don't get how he does it but he does.

Zach dishes up just about everything he ordered on his plate. I split Abby and I's one dish and start adding other things from Zach's order. He's already eating. I swore I saw him eat three bowls of cereal and I know he has a mini fridge in his room. This man is insane.

I stab some of my sweet n' sour pork with my fork because I'm uncultured and couldn't use chopsticks properly if my life depended on it.

"Hey Abby think later tonight we could get a drink at your bar?" Man he just keeps doing things. We're going on a walk and we have this food and cake at home. What a wild man he is.

"Actually I'm supposed to work tonight again because my coworker called in sick and you know extra cash. So I can't drink and I won't baby sit you kids and I don't trust you guys to get home on your own. Remember last time? You both slept in the ally because you thought it was the hallway of our building and it was "close enough" as I recall. You'd probably end up dead this time." She's not wrong but to be fair I had that spicy whatever drink and like 10 shots of vodka and that drink really fucks me up.

"I guess you're right. Jasper can we go on like an extra long walk then? I just wanna be doing something." I smile and nod.

"Of course. Maybe a late night swim at the pool?" Theres this pool we love and its never guarded. We've "snuck in" probably over 20 times already in the few months of being here.

"Yes please." He smiles and chomps down a big bite of his chicken chow mein.
