If you haven't heard this you really should. It is such a pretty song and his voice is the best thing. I'm listening to it as I write and I just love his voice.

Time skip to after work

Max had agreed to let me run home to change into something a bit more suited for a restaurant, seeing as I had decided to come to work in sweatpants. I saw an opportunity and I took it, I do not regret my decision. But I also hope that he isn't going to be waiting too long for me, I think he's heading right to the place. And on another thought I really hope I know where I'm going, what if I get lost?

"Shut up," I whispered to myself. I'm overthinking the situation.

I've been around Max a lot, I shouldn't be nervous about going to a dinner with him. He's been there for me and I've been there for him. This is just a dinner with a person who is my friend and that I can see as more of a friend. Yeah, sounds good.

I decided on jeans and a long sleeve shirt, I'm not dressing up for him. And the restaurants not fancy so this is fine. I've never been, but I've passed by it I think. I can do this, I'm from New York!

"God I'm special."

At the restaurant

Finally! And I only got lost once, not much of an achievement now I that I think of it. I got out of my car and hurriedly walked into the restaurant. It was a cute little place, locally owned so there's nothing like it in New York. As I walked in I saw Max sitting at a table in the middle of the room. He was looking at something on his phone. I smiled and walked over.

"Sorry I'm late, I got lost," I explained as I pulled the chair out to sit.

He looked up from his phone and smiled "No it's okay. I got here like 5 minutes ago so you're fine."

"That's still 5 minutes that I should've been here. I completely forgot to bring a change of clothes to the office. Sorry again."

He laughed "Y/n, it really is not big deal. Calm down, I was preparing to wait longer."

I smiled "If you say so. So what is here," I asked as I picked up the menu and scanned the options.

"They have a lot, just look at the menu and get what you think looks good. I've only been here a few times so I don't think I'm the best to say what is good of not," Max rambled.

I looked at him from the top of my menu, smiled, and went back to looking for food. He's funny when he rambles, he's almost as bad as me when it comes to that.

"Welcome! Can I get you anything to drink," a waitress asked me as she came over.

"Oh, water is fine thank you," I said looking up and smiling at her.

"Alright I'll be right back with that."

"I hate ordering, it's so hard to talk to people. I always memorize what I want to say a few times so I don't sound stupid! Have you ever ordered at a Panda Express? It's a very stressful experience," I stated as I put down my menu having decided what I wanted.

He laughed "I'll keep that in mind. But I don't see how it's that stressful. I've had to do it plenty of times and I'm still here."

"Okay, here's the thing buddy, you're a YouTube star" he snorted at my comment but let me continue.

"You're used to being in front of people and talking. I'm the behind the scenes person that makes all that magic happen. So when I say that it's hard to order at Panda fricken Express then it's hard."

He laughed and held up his hands "Alright alright it's hard, glad we covered this ahead of time."

The rest of our date was just more fun conversations like this. It was just like normal, but with a fancy title to it. And I can see more of these happening.

Okay! Sorry that took so long have a good day/night!!
