When you finally turn around, you see Hunter standing in the living room wearing a black suit and dress shoes, instead of converse. His white dress shirt is slightly unbuttoned, and his hair is spiked up.
He doesn't say anything. Instead, he walks up to you and gently strokes your cheek with his thumb while he looks into your eyes. You try to find the right words to say, but you're speechless. A few hours ago, you were mad at him and wishing that he was here, and here he is now standing right in front of you. "I missed you..." he says softly. "I missed you too Hunter," you say, tears streaming down your face.
He leans in and kisses your lips passionately and you wrap your arms around his waist, kissing him back. When he pulls away, you bury your head in his chest and breathe in his perfect scent. He gently strokes your hair and kisses your head. "If it's okay, I would like to take you out tonight."
You smile, even though he can't see your face. "Where are we going?"
"That's a surprise. Did you get a new dress and a pair of heels?" He says. You lift your head up and look at him. "Yeah I did. But how do you know that?"
"That's classified information," he says with a smirk. "Come on Hunter! TELL ME," you say, grabbing his shirt and shaking him. "Okay fine! I'll tell you!" He says. He sits down on the couch and pulls you onto his lap. You kick your legs up on the couch and wrap your arms around him. "Okay...so after we got off the phone earlier today, I called Allison and told her to hang out with you and take you to the mall so that you could stay out of the house long enough for us to set everything up, and so that you could get a dress for our date tonight. I've been planning everything for a few weeks now, and I knew that I would be coming home today, which is why I sounded really calm on the phone. And there were a lot of people calling my name because we had to get going so that I could get home on time," he says.
"Hunter Easton Hayes, how come you didn't tell me anything? I was over here crying and getting mad at you and everything!" You say. "It wouldn't be a surprise if you knew about it!" he says with a laugh. You laugh. "Yeah that's true."
"Listen, you can be mad at me later, but I'm sure that its past 6:00 and we have to get to the place around 7:00. You have a dress right?" He says. "Yeah. Did you want to see it?" You say. "No because you have great taste and I know that you're going to look beautiful no matter what," he says, kissing your cheek.
While you're in the middle of getting dressed, you hear Hunter start screaming. You run out of the bathroom and into the living room to see Hunter geeking out over the new Martin guitar that you bought for him. "BABE IS THIS FOR ME?!"
"Yes that's for you Hunter. I also got you a new watch," you say with a laugh. "Holy crap," he says. He starts talking about the guitar and what makes it different, using all these musical terms that you don't understand. Heck, he probably made some up.
"Hey Hunt, I hate to interrupt you, but I need you to help me zip up my dress," you say. "Oh yeah that's right!" He says, jumping up and helping you with your dress.
"Do I look nice so far?" You ask. "You look hot. In fact, I don't know how we're supposed to leave the house when you're looking like that. I say we cancel the date and just stay here and cuddle on the couch. We can watch movies and I can attack you with kisses. Heck, I'll even take my shirt off if you want me to," he says, unbuttoning his shirt.
You scream and grab his hands to stop him from taking his shirt off. "Hunter, that's very persuasive but I know that you want to stay home so that you can play that Martin guitar. And besides, you said that you were going to take me out tonight!"
"Yeah that's true," he says, buttoning his shirt back up. "Okay, so I'll keep my word and take you out tonight, and then when we come back, I'll play the guitar for a little bit and then we can cuddle and watch movies. How's that sound?"
"Sounds like a plan," you say with a laugh.
You go back to the bathroom to finish up your makeup and touch up your hair, and when you're done, you and Hunter head out to go on a date.
