Four months after I got back

"Hey, baby." Max says as he picks me up for practice. I recently got my immobilizer and walking boot off. Now I'm just stuck with my arm cast but, I can dance so I'm happy.

"Hey." I say, kissing him as I get in the car with my bag

"So, you feeling alright?" He asks as  we drive to the studio.

"Yeah, a little sore, but I'm so much happier now that I can dance again." I say and he smiles.

"I can tell. It's a blessing, your hard to handle when your grumpy." He says and I give him an appalled look.

"Well, I didn't know you felt like that!" I say and he smiles.

"I'm kidding. Your amazing either way." He says and I grin.

"I know." I say, conceitedly. He laughs and stops.

"I'll see you later." He says and I smile, getting out of the car.

"Don't forget about tonight." I say, closing the door and waving, walking inside to my dance class.

Max's POV

What's tonight? Ah crap, I forgot! Great!

I pulled out my phone to text Noah and saw a reminder flashing on my screen.

ANNIVERSARY DATE.  DON'T FORGET! LOVE YOU<3 -C

I sighed, smiling. Just like her to have a reminder ready for me. Well, while she's at practice, I'll get things ready for tonight.

I went home and picked out an outfit that consisted of a blue button-up shirt, jeans and my converse. I called and ordered some pasta and stuff from Colette's favorite restaurant and then I went to the florist and got a bouquet of yellow and red roses, tulips and morning glory's. By then it was time to pick her up, so I drove there, hiding the flowers in the back.

"Hey!" I say, leaning over and kissing her cheek as she scowled at me.

"Not in the mood." She says, buckling her seat belt.

"What's wrong, babe?" I ask and she shot me a look.

"I can't perform in the recital the studio's having until my arm cast comes off. The recital's in a month and I don't get my cast off for another two months." She says, a tear falling silently down her cheek.

"Hey, it's okay." I say wiping her tear away.

"No, it's not, I need to perform. It's my life." She says and I kissed her forehead.

"Look, let's just forget all our worries tonight. I've got an amazing date planned and it's just gonna be us. We can worry about this tomorrow." I say and she smiles.

"You're right, this can wait. I'm ready for our date." She says, taking my hand and smiling.

"Me too." I say and drive to her apartment.

"I'll pick you up at seven." I say and she smiles, closes the door and waves, then walks into her aparmtent building. I drive away, smiling, excited for our date.

Colette's POV

I walked to my closet, robe tied securely around my waist, hair still wrapped in a towel, fresh from my shower. I'm trying to decide what to wear. Max said to be casual, but cute casual.{ http://www.polyvore.com/date/set?id=65653037 } {there's the link!!} Finally I pick out the cutest casual outfit I can think of, and pull it on, taking my hair down and brushing through it. First, I blow dry it and then I star braiding it and twisting it, using my straightener to create what I call the 'bed head' look, but what others call 'beach waves'.  I look in my mirror, smiling and grabbing my grey eyeliner. I apply a little bit and then use my grey and back to create a 'smoky eye' thing.

I shoot up, hearing a knock and check my phone. Seven on the dot. I grab my shoes and pull them on, also grabbing my phone. Right before I open the door I put on some light pink lip gloss.

"Hey baby!" Max says and I smile.

"Hey." I say and he looks at my outfit.

"You look adorable!" He says and that's when I notice one hand is behind his back.

"Whatchya got?" I ask, trying to peek around his shoulder but he moves so I can't see.

"I got your favorite-"

"You got the tulip, rose, morning glory bouquet?" I ask, hopefully.

"How did you know?" He asks and I smile.

"Because if you had brought me food, I would be furious and you know it." I say and he laughs.

"True." He says, handing me the flowers. I pull him in and shut the door, going to get a vase.

"You really need to clean." He says when I return.

"And when do I have time? Classes in the afternoon, dance practice every morning Monday through Saturday, my job." I say and he laughs.

"Babe, you go play with dogs all day, you shouldn't be that tired." He says and I pout.

"You try keeping baby Boxers, Chiahuaha's and German Sheppard's entertained and then grooming a full grown Newfoundland! Those things have a lot of hair!" I say, annoyed and he just laughs, taking my hand and pulling me onto his lap.

"I have a surprise." Max says, kissing me.

"What is it?" I ask and he shakes his head.

"That would be why it is called a surprise. C'mon, our food's getting cold." He says, standing me up and then standing up.

"Ooh! What're we having?" I ask, walking to the door.

"Your favorite." He says and I grin.

"This date is just full of my favorites!" I say, clapping and then gasping when I see what's parked in my parking spot.
