Jay's POV:

I awaken to my phone ringing. I check my phone. It was from Daniel. In a panic, I check the time. IT'S 3:53!!! I quickly answer.

Daniel: "Hey um... Where are you? I've been waiting for you to pick me up for a while. I thought you forgot  so I decided to call you..."

Jay: "Oh my god! I'm so sorry! I totally fell asleep! Can I pick you up at 4:30? I gotta change and stuff!"

Daniel: "*Let's out a quiet sigh.* Yeah... Ok. Nothing to worry about."

Jay: D-Did he just sigh? Is he mad...? "A-Are you sure it's ok? If you're mad, we don't have to go today! I can make it up to you some other time!"

Daniel: "No, no, no! It's cool! I was really looking forward to today! I only sighed in relief because I thought you had suddenly cancelled!"

Jay: "Oh, thank god! Sorry! So, I'll pick you up at 4:30!"

Daniel: "Yeah, ok. Bye, love you."

Jay: "Love you too."

I hang up the call, and slap myself. How could I forget! I'm so stupid! What if Daniel is in a bad mood now? It had to be today of all days! I run to my closet and pick out a suit, which isn't going overboard. I quickly undress and change into the suit. I put the ring into my jacket and head into the restroom. I fix my hair and brush my teeth.

I then grab my dress shoes and put them on. I chill on my phone, 'till the clock strikes 4:20. I grab my keys and hop onto my motorcycle. I look at my helmet, hesitating a bit. I decide to put it on anyway.

I arrive at Daniel's house at exactly 4:30. I honk, and see Daniel stumble put. I wave at him, and pass him a helmet. "Hi!" He blushes. As soon as Daniel wraps his arms around my waist, I start to drive away. I drive to a super fancy restaurant, which I'm pretty close to the owner of it. I park my motorcycle, and we both take our helmets off.

I pull my phone out of my pocket, and check if my hair looks ok. I look over and see that he has helmet hair. "Pfft!" I unintentionally let that escape from my mouth. "What? Is there something on my face?" He asks. I turn on my phone and go to the front camera and show him. "Oh crap!" He exclaims. Looking at himself through my phone, he attempts to comb his hair with his hands, but only makes it worse. I look into the glove compartment and pull out a comb.

I hand the comb to Daniel, and he gratefullt takes it. He fixes his hair a bit, but it still looks funny. "Ugh! Whatever! No one with care anyway! Thanks though, Jay." He hands the comb back. "Let me try." I say. Daniel takes a step closer to me. I run the comb through his soft hair, directing his bangs to the left. (Daniel's left.) "Turn around." I state. Daniel does so, and I comb the little hairs sticking out from the back and sides.

I finally finish and out the comb back in the glove compartment. We then walk in the restaurant and are immediatley greeted by all the employees. "Hi, do you have a reservation?" A lady asks. I nod. "May I please have your name?" She asks. "Jay Hong, table for two." I state. She looks through her list, and finally finds my name. "Ah! Right this way sir!" She bows down.

She leads us to a table near a window. If you look outside, you can see a beautiful water fountain. We are both seated and handed a menu. "Wow... This place is beautiful!" Daniel exclaims. "Not as much as you..." I say, half snickering. "Haha. That was so cheesy!" He blushes. We both look at our menus, examining all the delicious food they had to order. After a few minutes, a waiter approaches our table with a notepad and pen. "Evening gentlemen, what would you guys like to eat on this fine evening?" He asks. "I'll take a medium-rare steak." I state. "I-I'll have the same!" Daniel says, a little to excited. I smirk at his kind-of- childish behavior. "Anything to drink?" He asks. "I'll have some red wine please." I say. "Uh... W-What's there to drink, t-that doesn't have alcohal?" Daniel asks. "There's Root Beer, Coca Cola, Pepsi, Sprite, water, orange juice, ect." He says. "I-I'll just have some Root Beer... Thank you." He manages to stutter out. The waiter takes our menus and heads into the kitchen.

Daniel fiddles with his thumbs, I can tell he was think that he sounded like an idiot while ordering. "Pfft." I yet again let escape my mouth. Daniel quickly looks up, face bright red. "W-What's so funny?!" He exclaims. "It's so cute how you're worried about the way you ordered." I smirk. "I- I'm not worried! Who says I was?!" He asks. "You were looking embarrassed the whole time. You were even messing with your thumbs!" I explain.

Daniel's face turns to a scarlet color. Just then, the waiter comes out with our drinks. As he places the drinks down, Daniel thanks him. The waiter just bows down. The waiter also places a bottle of red wine on the table. I take a sip just as Daniel takes a sip of his Root Beer. Daniel's stomache growls. "T-The food smells good..." He says. I nod, looking at Daniel's face. I eventually space out. "Jay! Jay! You ok?" Daniel asks.

I once again nod. "I was just thinking about how much I love you." I state. "You're so cheesy!" He giggles.

After a bit of waiting, the same waiter brings us our food. I can see Daniel's mouth water as he sets the plates down. The waiter checks on other people as we both dig in. How and when should I propose? Maybe I should take him to buy some stuff, like clothes or something, and then propose? We finish and look at the water fountain again. Since it had gotten pretty dark, they added lights this time.

"I wish time would just stop at this moment..." I hear Daniel mumble. Me too...
