Y/N POV:

I'm currently in my bedroom looking every where for something to put on. I don't really have any nice outfits. This is Pony and I's first date as more than just friends. We aren't dating or anything but this is a date. I'm nervous in all honesty. I've been on two other "dates" before back in New York. But the difference is they'd ask me to hang out and go eat somewhere cause they liked me and I was hungry and wanted good food I didn't have to pay for. This was different though, Pony and I both really liked each other and we have even kissed before. I knew he wouldn't be formal or anything outfit wise but I wanted to look nice. Not too nice that I looked like a Soc from what they call it but nice enough where I knew I cared. I found a cute long black and white polka dot skirt I stole from my mother when I still live in New York. It was very nice and she never wore it so I took it. She wouldn't know it was missing if she never used it. Then I got a red button down polo and put those two on together. I found it adorable and still looked pretty cool. I wore a leather jacket over it just to add that flare. I put some Red lipstick and mascara to finish the look. I kept my hair down with a bandana wrapped on my head like a headband. I wore white sneakers and put some perfume on. I waited in the living space for Pony to pick me up.

I then heard a knock on my door knowing it was him. I was so nervous so I put a piece of bubble gum in my mouth and rushed to the door. I opened it to see Pony looking very handsome with his greased back hair and his outfit simplistic but very nice. He smelled strongly of cologne and he held out a bouquet of Red roses for me. "Hey Y/n. These a-are for you." He handed the roses to me and he finally took a good look at me. When he did he gasped and blushed. "Wow you look beautiful." He said to me softly with a smile on his face making his reaction have me blush. "O-Oh thank you Pony. By the way these flowers are beautiful I love them." I smile back at him. I go and put the flowers in my counter and quickly put them in a water vase. I go back to the door, lock it and head out with him.

"So where are we going Pony?" I say while walking besides him down the street. "I was hoping that maybe you'd like to go out to get some milk shakes at this place that I like and maybe head to your place and hang out?" He said looking at me. I nodded and smiled at him. I felt his hand move towards mine and I allow him to hold my hand. My heart feels about as if it will leap out of my chest from just that. I wasn't a very passionate girl when it comes to love but when it's stuff like this it can't be helped. We still are walking when Pony stops abruptly and looks towards me. I stay still not knowing what is happening. He looks straight at me now and I freeze. "Y/N ya know I'm so happy you are going out with me right now today. It makes me happy knowing that you take the time out of your day just to do this with me. Thank you so much. I hope to make you as happy as possible during these hours that we are out together. Okay?" He says to me smiling and looking at me. It almost wants to make me tear up. He is so sweet for thinking like this. I nod at him and hug him. "Alright Pony. Thank you too." I say to him still hugging me. He grabs onto me and hugs me tightly and then let's go. Finally he lets go and we head back to walking. We get down a few more blocks when we finally get to the place. It's a very cute diner. It is a teal blue color on the inside and has Booths and high chairs on the counters. Him and I take a booth and sit on opposite sides. "This place looks really nice Pony. Thanks for picking it." I say to him and wait for the waitress to come. She goes to our booth and asks us what we want. I get a strawberry milkshake and fries. Pony gets a Vanilla milkshake and decides to share fries with me. As that happens I zone out looking outside the window. The zooming cars in the lot and streets make me tired. Was 7:00 pm and it was already dark. I didn't sleep early or anything but it did get me tired seeing it all like this. "So how was your day?" Pony asks me waiting for my response. "It was fine Pony. Boring but fine." I say to him. "I didn't know you played piano. It's really good." He smiles at me while saying so. We get out milkshakes and Fries in the process. I take a first sip of mine and then proceed to answer. "Yeah I learned in a bar back a few years ago. Dally had a huge crush on the pianist and made me learn just to get close to her for him. I did get something in the end I guess haha." I say to him. Tonight was gonna be good.
