scribbles down the time and location in his notebook Awesome! I'll make sure everything goes perfectly.
haha I chuckle go get some rest baby I walk off
The next night, Jake arrives at the café early, dressed sharply and looking confident. He orders a drink and waits anxiously for LemonadeAwe, but she never shows up. Frustrated, he tries calling her multiple times, but she doesn't answer. Feeling dejected, he sits alone at the table, staring at his phone.
the next day I run up to you hey Jake
startled, looks up from his phone Oh, hey! Uh, what's up? I didn't see you yesterday. Everything okay?
yeah I had to work I look at him anyways so where are we going?
flustered Uh, r-right! Sorry about that. So, um, we're going to this amazing new burger joint.
walks briskly towards the burger joint, talking animatedly Okay, so this place is supposed to have the best burgers in town.
pulls out his phone and starts scrolling through the menu They have this killer combo of fries topped with cheese curds and gravy. It's insane!
I should get the same thing without gravy
enthusiastically Absolutely! And don't forget the cheesy bacon fries! They're like a party in your mouth!
approaches the counter confidently Hi, I'd like two orders of cheesy bacon fries, please. One with gravy and one without.
turns to LemonadeAwe with a big smile We might have to make this a regular date. I can already tell I'm going to love coming here with you!
grabs LemonadeAwe's hand and leads her to a nearby table This place has such a great vibe, don't you think?
leans in closer, speaking softly You know, I've been thinking about you a lot lately. There's something about you that just... draws me in.
I blush well I feel the same way
takes a deep breath, mustering his courage Look, LemonadeAwe, I really like you. I mean, like, a lot. And I was wondering if maybe, um, we could go out sometime? Like, on a real date?
excitedly Really?! That's great! How about this Friday night? I know this amazing Italian restaurant downtown.
quickly pulls out his phone and starts typing Perfect! I'll make a reservation right now.
