"C'mon Willow." Maxwell said as he opened the door for her.

Taking the hand he held out for her, she quietly thanked him. "Where are we Max?" She looked at the building.

Annie's

"Is this place okay?" Maxwell asked nervously, "I should've asked, I'm sorry baby, if you don't like it we can-" He rambled on, but was cut off as Willow placed her lips on his — giving him a peck.

"It's more than okay, besides, I love this place." She said as she blushed, and looked at her shoes. However, Maxwell wanted to see her eyes, and she was doing the opposite of what he wanted, so he placed two fingers under her chin, gently lifting her head up to. "Look at me baby."

Willow looked at the man in front of her with her beautiful does eyes. The girl has never had a favorite color before, but now, they were the color of Maxwell's eyes. It was sunny outside, so the sun made his light brown eyes look like pools of honey. The same could be said for Maxwell. He loved Willow's dark brown eyes. They reminded him of dark chocolate brownies. It seems weird that both of their eyes reminded the other of food, but they didn't care.

"I don't like it when you look away from me baby, I always wanna see your beautiful eyes." Maxwell said softly as he tucked a strand of hair that fell out of place behind her ear.

"I'm sorry, let's go?" Willow said as she gave him a smile as her cheeks flustered.

Walking into the place, it was very bright and beautiful. The floors were black and white checkered, and the seats were red and white. The walls consisted of a line of checkered wrapping around, and held many pictures of the diner throughout the years, as well as the owner and her family. The place was very homey, and was full of people having the time of their lives. There was even a jukebox in the corner. Annie's was filled with chatter and laughter, and background music.

"Hello I'm Amelia, I'm gonna be your waitress for today, what can I get for you?" The waitress said as the two couple sat down, greeting them with a notepad and pen in her hands.

"Willow? Is that you?" Amelia asked.

"Amelia?" Willow asked as she looked at the girl with wide eyes. "Holy. Hey! Sorry I haven't been checking up on you. How are you?"

"I'm doing okay, you know, what about you?" Amelia replied as her voice nearly cracked.

"I'm good. Oh, this is Maxwell, my... boyfriend. Max, this is Amelia, my friend." Willow blushed as she introduced her boyfriend as, well, her boyfriend.

"Nice to meet you." Amelia said as she turned to look at him. All she had received was a nod. "Your order?"

"Oh, can I get a chocolate milkshake, and a cheesy pizza and fries?" Willow says as she closed the menu. "I'll have a vanilla milkshake, and two cheese burgers."

Amelia quickly wrote down their orders and left.

"Who is she, and how do you know her?" Maxwell asked as he furrowed his brows in curiosity.

"That's Amelia. We met at the cemetery. Umm... her girlfriend committed you know... yeah. But she's been there for me and me her. We haven't talked in a while though."

...

"What's your favorite color?" Willow asked. The pair were now playing 20 questions as they were eating their food.
