| Calum |


It was Monday, the day before my date with Helen and I was nervous. Freaking out even. I don't know where to take her.

Suit?

That will make it seem like I'm trying way to hard.

Band shirt?

That will make it seem like I don't care.

Fancy dinner?

Pizza?

Panda Express?

I don't know! Who knew planning a date was going to be this hard.

I was pacing my bedroom floor when my mum knocked on the door.

"Calum, dinner is ready," She said.

"Okay," I reply, "Hey, Mum, can I tell you something?"

She poked her head in and nodded.

"I have a date tomorrow," I said.

"Really?" She smiled.

"Yea, with Helen. Helen Hemmings, she is Luke's sister."

"How sweet," She said. "You must really really like this girl."

"I like her a lot, Mum," I said. "But I don't know where to take her."

"Well, what does she like?"

"She is the girl version of Luke," I reply.

"Maybe settle for some Pizza or Panda Express," She said and got up and left.

I laughed.

I picked my phone up and texted Luke.

Me: I need your help, mate.

Luke: What is it?

Me: Where should I take Helen?

Luke: She isn't really into fancy restaurants, so maybe Panda Express.

Me: Seriously? My Mum just said that!

Luke: Well listen to her!

Me: Okay, thanks man.

Luke: Yea, no problem

I locked my phone and slipped it in my pocket.

I started relaxing a little. I got the whole night planned out. I know what I am going to wear and take her and what I am going to do when I drop her off back home.

Man, I'm nervous. I'll try my best to make it a good day for her.

Until tomorrow.
