I woke up excited on Friday, William was taking me out and it should be very fun. He would not give me any clue as to what we were doing so I showed up to school that day kind of nervous.

"Are you excited about tonight babe?" William asked leaning over my shoulder in choir.

"Will it be like last time?" I asked, genuinely curious.

"Not really, different plans, should be pretty fun though. I know you a little better than I did on our last date." He responded and we both went back to singing.

At the end of the school day I didn't even go home, he just told me to meet him out front and he would drive us to wherever he was taking us. So, obviously, that's what I did. When the school bell rang, I left class and walked out to the front of the school, I got in Williams car when it pulled around. 

"So, where are we going?" I asked, excited and happy to be doing this again.

"Well, we're going to go to my house for about an hour, is that cool? Then, I promise we'll go somewhere!"

"That sounds fantastic." He began driving away from the school and it took him about 14 minutes before he pulled into his driveway. 

"Now, I understand you are a girl, but, this will not prohibit us from watching good movies. I'm not saying horror movies, you are too innocent for that, but I didn't really want to watch a sappy cliché love story." I laughed a little as he led me downstairs into his basement. I laughed harder when I saw that he had made a big fort out of blankets and pillows. The TV was even inside his blanket fort, he pulled me into the fort and we watched an episode of one of my favorite TV shows, Leverage. It was actually filmed where I used to live and I had met some of the cast members. At about 5:00, when our show ended William pulled me up and we walked out to the car together. 

"Where are we going now?" I asked giggling a little as I got into the passenger seat of the car.

"Oh, we're going bowling." He replied. I laughed and he drove off, "do you not like bowling? Because we're going bowling and there is nothing you can do about it."

"Oh no, I do enjoy it, but I think you have assembled the most cliché date ever and I love it!" I laughed softly as he pulled into the parking lot of the bowling alley.

We had a lot of fun bowling. I kind of suck at it, but that's what made it fun. Although I did threaten to smash my boyfriends head in with a bowling ball if he laughed when I turned on the bumpers. After I began using those, I improved immensely. I'm decently sure that we played for about an hour until I decided that I was tired, so he took me back to his place. 

We got back inside his blanket fort and watched The Martian, and he ordered us pizza. I fell asleep twice during the movie, I was really dead due to school and work and such, this was a fantastic way to rewind, by watching movies in a blanket fort with my boyfriend. 

"Celebrity crush, go." William asked me randomly about halfway through the movie.

"I don't really have one. I'm not immersed in pop culture."

"Ok, but if you had to marry a movie star, who would you choose? Oh, and why?"

"Wait, do they have to be a movie star, as long and they're like, an actor?"

"Ok, bend the rules? See if I care." I laughed and he humphed and turned away.

"This stays between the 2 of us, but, um, Thayne."

"Thayne Jasperson? Like in Hamilton?"

"Yeah. I'm sorry, have you seen him? He's super attractive!" I laugh as I see the look on Williams face, obviously he was not expecting me to say someone I knew, "sorry! He's a really nice dude! Also, you don't have to be worried, he has like 10 years on me!" I break down laughing because William was just staring me down, apparently he had a bone to pick with Thayne.

"Well then, sorry I asked."

"Ok, ok, your turn, who's your celebrity crush?"

"Alright, I like a normal person will choose someone I do not know, as that is the point of the celebrity crush and say, Jennifer Lawrence." I nodded my approval.

William drove me back home at 9:45, and I collapsed onto my bed, I have great boyfriend, was the last thought that passed through my mind before I fell asleep.
