*semi-edited*

sorry guys i keep leaving you for ages without updates :(

Zander's POV

I continue spinning around with Jessica, my girlfriend, my mate in my arms. Her laughs filling the air. It felt good to say that. Really good. It made our relationship more... permanent. I liked it. After being alone for so long, it felt amazing to be able to feel something with someone, emotions other than lust.

What would a good boyfriend do? Take her on a date, right? That's what I'll do then.

I stop spinning and drop her down on the floor. She grabbed onto my arm regaining her balance.

"Why did I let you do that, I'm so dizzy right now." She groans holding onto her head. I smile and pull her onto her bed, placing her right next to her.

"You know what, I'm taking you on a date tomorrow." I state looking over at her. Jessica's eyes quickly turn to me and she raises her eyebrows in question. I don't know why she was so shocked. I wanted to treat her, she deserved more than my annoying arse. Taking her out would be a way to start showing her how much I appreciate her sticking with me.

"A date? Bob's your uncle!" Jessica exclaims in happiness, a smile on her face.

"I don't think that's the correct context, but yes. A date." I laugh as she wraps her arms around my waist and hugs me sideways. I wrap my arms around her pulling her closer to my chest.

"Sooooooo... where are we going?!" Jessica asks excitement clear in her voice.

"Well, depends on what you want to do. Do you want to do something active or something more passive?" I ask while stroking her hair.

Her head moves and she looks at me, happiness glinting in her eyes. "Something active!" She replies.

Now I had an idea of where I was going to take her.

"Okay, baby. I've got an idea. I'll take you tomorrow so be ready by seven in the morning." I inform her. She hums into my chest.

"That's okay... WAIT! SEVEN IN THE MORNING?!" Jessica exclaims and pulls away from my arms. "Why so damned early?! What the fuck are we doing? I need my sleep!" She grumbles angrily.

"It's a surprise." I laugh at her irritated expression.

"Better be a good surprise if I have to wake up at like six in the fucking morning on a FUCKING Saturday." Jessica crosses her arms and frowns but I knew she wasn't being serious.

"Baby, don't worry. I know you'll like it." I reassure her and chuckle. She nods and squeals loudly.

"Sorry, I'm just so excited. I never thought you'd ever take me on a date." She sighs dreamily and wraps her arms around my torso.

"Now you're my mine, I'm gonna spoil you so fucking much, be ready for it." I tell her sternly and she giggles before shaking her head.

"I don't wanna be spoiled by you, I like how we are now. Don't spend so much money on me." She denies but I ignore her. I was still going to spoil her as much as I could. Treat her like the queen she is.

"Mmmm." 

We just stand there in a comfortable embrace, not saying a word but appreciating each others presence.

A few moments pass before Jessica pipes up. 

"Zander? I've got a question for you, promise not to get annoyed with me." Jessica states and I chuckle.
