Prompt: "Please don't be in love with someone else"

Couple: Marcus Armstrong and Callum Ilott

Once Callum reached the table, I stood and drew him into his arms.

"Hey, there you are. I missed you."

"Marcus, you saw me like 2 hours ago at the track." Callum laughed and my whole body lit up at the sound.

"So? I still missed you," I argued

"Missed me so much that you nearly took me out at Turn 2?" I just pulled a face, making Callum chuckle once more. "I have something to tell you. But later, for now we'll order." His words made me nervous especially since he wouldn't tell me straight away. Please don't be in love with someone else.

Swallowing, I looked down at the menu, trying to calm myself down. It'll be fine Marcus. Right then, I felt my phone buzz. Normally, I wouldn't take out my phone during dinner, but my mum normally messages me on race nights and if I didn't reply she got worried.

Instagram: Callum Ilott has mentioned in their story

I looked up at him with raised eyebrows only to be met with his smirking face, waiting patiently for my reaction. Looking back down, I clicked the notification. I smiled at what I saw before quickly typing my reply and hitting post to add it to my story.

The waitress appeared and took our orders before disappearing once more.

"Firstly, who said I'm paying? Second, you missed a great opportunity there. You could have said 'Marcus taking me out after almost taking me out'."

"I know. But I thought it sounded too date-like," My heart sunk to my feet. "I mean, the fans ship us enough. Have you seen the amount of Callum and Marcus accounts and Fanfictions there are?"

"Is that really such a bad thing?" A wave of confidence ran through me as I said that despite the fact that I knew I would probably regret it later.

"It is when it isn't true." I couldn't help but notice the way Callum looked down as he spoke or the way he seemed to deflate even though he was so excited before. I decided to take a risk.

"Then why isn't it true?" His head snapped up so fast I was worried he was going to break his neck.

"What?"

"I'm just saying," I shrugged, a little worried about his response.

"Do you want it to be true? Do you want this to be a date?" Callum fired questions at me.

"Honestly, yes and yes. Yes, I want to be with you. Yes, I want this to be a date. But if you don't, it's fine. I don't want to pressure you or anything." Callum slipped his hand into mine from across the table but before he could say anything the waitress returned with our food.
