My doorbell rang. Okay, don't get nervous. It's just a date. You've been on a date before. I got up and answered it. Travis was standing there in a suit holding a small red flower(not a rose).

"Hey there, sexy," he said as he handed me the flower.

"I don't think that's the way to greet someone on a fancy date," I said while giggling. I put the flower behind my ear.

"Fine, hello, beautiful," he said with a smile. He extended his arm. I wrapped my arm around his. He walked us to his car, he even opened my door for me.

"Wow this must be really fancy if you're opening my door for me," I said.

"It's the least I could do."

Time skip to the restaurant

"Woah, how did you get a reservation here?" I asked.

"I have a friend who works here," is all he said. We were soon led to a table and given our menus. I ordered cheap so Travis spend all of his money. Well cheap for the restaurant. Nothing was under $20 there.

"I'll be back with your food soon," the waiter said. He left before I could say thanks.

"Travis, you really didn't have to take me somewhere this nice," I said.

"I know, I just wanted to make it memorable," he replied with a smile.

"Well, thanks. It's the best date I've been on," I said sincerely.

"It's just getting started." He grinned.

Our little moment was interrupted by someone. "Y/n," he said as he walked up to our table. I knew that sinister voice from anywhere.

"Zenix," I said calmly. "What are you doing here?" I asked bitterly.

"I work here," he answered.

"I didn't know they hired creeps," I retorted.

"I didn't know they served sluts," he said.

"Why are you here? You aren't our server," I said venomously.

"I saw that disgusting dress and knew it was you. I couldn't let an opportunity like this slip away," he replied.

"Zenix," Travis cut in, "you sound like an amazing person, but why don't you just leave."

"Is that a threat?" Zenix asked sharply.

"Only if you take it like one," he responded.

"Who are you anyways?" Zenix asked.

"My boyfriend," I said proudly. I looked over at Travis and nodded slightly, showing him to go with it.

"You actually found someone after me? I wouldn't think I would see the day," Zenix said.

"And you have a girlfriend? Oh wait! I forgot. After what happened between us, I made sure every girl around here know how horrible you are," I spat. "Now, why don't you go home to your blow up doll and leave us be."

Zenix was fuming. He scoffed and stormed off.

"So, boyfriend now?" Travis asked me when Zenix was out of ear shot.

"I just said it to make him mad," I told him.

"I don't know, it seemed like you enjoyed calling me your boyfriend," replied Travis.

"Shut up," I said jokingly.

"So, what's the deal between you two?" Travis asked me.

"Oh yeah, you don't know. I guess I never really told you anything about myself," I said. "Well, in college we used to date. I met him in a book store and he bought me a book. It was really sweet and things just went from there. After a while of dating, I realized he wasn't as great as I thought. It's like I wasn't good enough for him any more. After a month of us fighting, I broke up with him when I found out he cheated on me with this girl named Sasha. I walked into my house and found them kissing. I punched Sasha and broke her nose. Like my house! Why would you do that in my house? Anyway, Zenix and Sasha wanted to get back at me so they spread rumors saying I was a whore, did drugs, stuff like that."

"You were that girl! You were all over social media," Travis said.

"Yeah I know. To get back, I got all of my friends together and we spread rumors around about him. We told some truthful things too, like how he lived in his parents' basement and how he lived like a cow. But we also said some things like he has a really creepy horse fetish. People believed it too."

Just then, our waiter came back with our food. I smiled and thanked him.

"So you were the one who said Zenix has a horse fetish!" Travis pointed out. "I never knew who said it first, but it spread like wild fire." He laughed.

"I'm glad." I laughed with him.

We finished our dinner and Travis paid for us.

"You know that I will always feel bad when you pay," I said.

"Y/n, I asked you here, meaning, I pay," Travis explained.

I sighed. "Fine." He smiled brightly.

"Come on," he said.

After driving somewhere, Travis said I could open my eyes.

"Why did I have to close my eyes? Is it really that special?" I asked. Travis laughed a little and got out. I followed. He took me hand into his and took me to a playground.

"It's really nice here when kids aren't here," I said.

"Yeah," Travis agreed. He took us over to the swing set. I got on one and he started to push me.

"You know I know how to swing, right?" I asked with a little laugh.

"It's more romantic like this," Travis said.

"Get your own swing," I laughed. Travis laughed with me and sat on the swing next to mine. "What made you want to come here?"

"I don't know, it just felt right. To act like kids again when nobody's around. Thought you would like it," he said as he flashed me a smile.

"Well, you're right. I think it's great. The park is always better at night with the stars out," I replied. Travis jumped off of his swing and pushed my swing back, him standing in front of me, holding my hips.

"You know what would make it more great?" He asked me.

"Cake?" I asked, my cheeks starting to turn pink.

He chuckled. "Well, yeah, but I was thinking more along the lines of this." He closed the space between us.
