Gamelover41592: Thx
Matt (Guest): Hope you are too!
Guest: That won't be pretty.
Okay, so now that I don't have 2 hours of school work that makes me want to never write anything with a story again(for a week at least), I'm going to work to get at least three chapters out. Most of these will be shorter ones to set up Splatoon 2. Anyways, you should know from the title what is going to happen.
"Callie, would you relax?" Marie groaned. It had been a few days and Callie had finally decided to take Jax up on his offer of a date. It wasn't until after she realized what she had just accepted did the freak out start.
"I can't!" Callie exclaimed. "This is my first date! Well, more like the first date with a guy who really likes me but still!"
"Callie relax," Sammy assured her by placing a hand on her shoulder. "You said it yourself, Jax really likes you. Just relax and act natural,"
"Alright," Callie said, still sounding unsure. However, seeing the smiles of her sisters/cousins caused her to feel more confident.
"Now, we need to get you ready," Marie said as she dragged Callie into the bathroom, with Sammy following, effectively blocking Callie from escaping.
Across town, Jax was looking over himself. He had decided to dress nicer then normal, but still on the casual side. A baby-jelly shirt & tie, dress pants and a pair of blue slip-ons. Snax watched his owner eagerly. He was happy for Jax.
"Okay...tonight's the night..." Jax said to himself. He was still in a bit of shock that one of the ultra-famous Squid Sisters had agreed to go on a date with him. It felt surreal.
"...?" Snax looked at his owner, confused. Why was Jax freaking out so much?
"Ugh. There are so many ways this could go wrong!...But I'm not going to let that stop me!" Jax said with determination
"...!" Snax gave off a happy face now. He knew Jax could do it!
"Wish me luck bud!" Jax said as he grabbed his wallet and left.
Jax and Callie had no idea what to expect in terms of the other's appearance. They had decided not to send pictures and just let things be a surprise. Jax arrived first and waited outside. Then he saw her.
And his jaw hit the floor.
Callie looked beautiful. She was wearing a pink dress, her tentacles were pulled back into her Squid Sister style and she seemed a little shy. All and all, Jax could have sworn she was an angel.
"You...look amazing," Jax said before he could stop himself. Callie started blushing.
"So do you," Callie said earnestly.
"So...wanna head in?" Jax said as he offered his arm. Callie took it eagerly as they walked inside. Marie and Sammy then popped out of the bushes.
"So, remind me, why we had to wait in the bushes!?" Marie snapped.
"It was your idea!" Sammy fired back. "You were also the one who wanted to spy on them in the first place!"
"Whatever," Marie replied. "Anyways, in more important news, it seems like things are going well,"
"And let's hope it stays that way," Sammy said. "Are...we going in?"
"Of course!" Marie declared.
Inside(and oblivious to the spying eyes of Callie's sisters/cousins), Jax and Callie sat down at their table. Jax had chosen a popular dating spot. Nothing special, just a place to eat. Neither of them were surprised to see quite a few people looking their way. After all, the Squid Sisters were notorious for rejecting many suitors. Of course, what many of them didn't get was that nobody was going to go out with someone they had just met. And especially someone who was only after their money/voice/body etc.
"I'm sorry about all the stares," Callie said once they had placed their drink orders.
"Oh let them look!" Jax replied. "I'm the lucky guy you picked," Callie giggled at that. A few tables down, Marie and Sammy were both hiding under menus.
"Can you hear what they are saying?" Sammy whispered.
"No but it looks good!" Marie replied back. They were so lucky that the place had so many people come to spy on their friends on dates that they let people keep their menus.
The date had continued on into the night and slowly yet surely, Jax and Callie eased into everything. While some people continued to stare, most chose to just ignore them. A few people did come up to ask Callie for autographs, but that was it. Finally, the check arrived.
"I'll pay if you don't want to?" Jax offered.
"How about we split it," Callie replied.
"I can live with that," Jax replied. Unbeknownst to either of them, Marie and Sammy had left a few minutes prior.
"This is it," Callie said. Jax had offered to walk her home and she had naturally accepted.
"So...wanna do this again sometime?" Jax asked.
"Definitely," Callie said as both went in for a kiss. Callie then walked into her penthouse as Jax walked off. He felt like he was on cloud nine.
"So how did it go?" Sammy asked.
"Great!" Callie gushed. "Jax is so awesome!"
"Glad to know!" Marie said. "See what happens when you take a chance?"
"Thanks for talking me into this. I needed it," Callie said.
And there you all have it, Jax and Callie's first date! Next time, we are going to jump ahead about a year to the results of the final Splatfest(yes, the others will be recapped). See ya then.
