Once I get home I basically do a victory dance. I put some fun music on the radio and start dancing around my apartment as I get ready. I put on something that will keep me warm and go well with the whole fall aesthetic that has taken over the city.

Once I'm ready I shoot Jen a text,

Once I'm ready I shoot Jen a text,

Y/N: I may or may not have a date with Jake tonight....

Jenna: ohmygod. No way!! Ahh girl tell me how it goes, good luck <3

I smile, pocket my phone and head into my kitchen, cleaning up a little bit as I wait for a text from Jake. At around 6 my phone buzzes, I glance at it and grab my bag before heading into the hallway. I straighten myself out and jump on the elevator. Ok chill. You're not about to let nerves ruin this. I breath in and out and try to calm down my excitement, I always get excited about dates but this is a little bit more, I've never liked someone so much so fast.

I step off the elevator and see Jake standing by the passenger door of his car, I smile, this guy is too much.

"Hey!" I say, walking out into the street, he smiles at me,

"Hey," He opens the door and I get in,

"How was your day?" He asks, getting in the driver seat and starting up the car.

"It was alright. I spent a couple hours job hunting." I say,

"Find anything?" He asks, I shake my head,

"What about you?" I ask,

"Ah my job hunt, it's going awful I'm not gonna lie." He says sarcastically, I laugh,

"No kidding," i joke, Jake acts offended, "i meant what about your day?"

"It was good you know I woke up to like 100 million text messages and my door was practically blockaded with fan mail-" he acts cocky, I laugh and roll my eyes,

"Oh really?" I say sarcastically,

"Nah I slept in until noon today and then I went to the gym and then Tom and I ran through lines on FaceTime." He admits. I smile,

"You and Tom are doing great by the way!" I say, he thanks me and we talk for a little while more until we park. Jake and I step out and he leads me into a bar/pool hall. It's tucked into a pretty inconspicuous spot and it's pretty nice. Jake and grab a small circular bar table near a pool table, I put my jacket on the bar stool and Jake grabs two pool cues. A waitress comes over and takes our drink order and then Jake and I start a game.

"This place is really nice." I say,

"Yeah I love it. The people are great and it's a pretty private spot." Jake says, lining up a shot and hitting a stripe into a corner pocket. He takes another shot and misses. I walk up to the table and knock in two solids in one shot.
