[Daniel's POV]

"Guys." I had a serious tone, but inside I was doing flips. We were on a Group FaceTime, without the girls again.

"What?" Zach chomped on leftover Chipotle. I tried to hide a smirk, but failed, and it turned into a huge grin.

"Oh no, did you fall in love with Hailee Steinfield again?" Corbyn put his head in his hand and rubbed his face.

"What no!" I frowned again,  but nevertheless chuckled.

"Bet." Jack tried to keep a glare but failed too.

"Yeah bet." Jonah added in.

"Ok if y'all shut up I'll tell you." I rolled my eyes.

"SHUT YO FACE!" Corbyn yelled out his window.

"Corbyn what? Nevermind I don't even want to know." I shook my head and took a deep breath. "I've got a date with Emma tomorrow."

All four pairs of eyes popped out of their sockets, and Jack dropped his phone.

"Is that what I walked in on?" Zach asked.

"Wait you saw them together?" Jonah poured himself a cup of coffee.

"Yeah he did. It was hilarious." I nodded. Corbyn let out a cackle along with Jack.

"Where are you taking her?" The shorter of the two asked.

"I think the carnival." I grimaced. I wasn't sure if Emma would like it.

"Wait do you not like roller coasters?!" Zach has a shocked look on his face.

"No! I love them, but the real question is, does she?"

"I bet she'll love whatever you do together."

"Wow Jo, stop being so mature." Corbyn rolled his eyes.

"Shut up Bean." Jonah glared.

"Ok you guys are annoying, bye." I hung up as fast as lightning.

"Ready?" I asked Emma after she opened the door to her house. She nodded and we headed to her Jeep.

"Do you want to drive?" She offered. I shrugged and she tossed me the keys and hopped into the passenger side. The doors and top were off, but luckily her hair was in a messy bun. She had on jean shorts, and a tank top, with a sweatshirt along in case she got cold. White slip on vans covered her feet, as well as mine. I had an gray long sleeve shirt, and shorts as well.

My stomach was filled with butterflies, I was so nervous. I started up the car, and Emma asked a question.

"Where are we going?"

"That's for me to know, and you to find out, Emma Lynn." I winked at her. The nickname was cheesy, but she liked it because she blushed.

"Alright Daniel James." Emma winked back. My face set into a small glare and she laughed. I love her laugh.
