Big thanks to my friend who helped me edit and made the story sooo much better :)

Thanks for the reviews! It makes me all so happy. Onto the story!

"MY GRANDMA WALKS FASTER THAN YOU, DOUGIE!"

"Yup, that's Sara and Dougie coming..." chuckled Tom.

"Aw, but Saraaaa! Please? I'll be back on time for the interview," whined Dougie

Oh man, he's using his cute puppy eyes. Those eyes with that body and face is like heaven on a bed. Whoa. Did I just say that? What am I thinking? He's my best mate.

I shrugged off the thought. "Dougie, knowing you, you're going to take a really long time to look at the pet store and if we go back we're going to be late anyways, so we'll go later, okay?" I said patting his cheek like I was his mother.

He grinned childishly. "Ok!!" he exclaimed happily.

After the Pop World interview, we all headed home except for Dougie and I, and went to go see the pet shop we were talking about earlier.

Somehow, one thing led to another and we had a Sara/Dougie day. After the Pet Store, Dougie decided to go to the Zoo to look at the animals and since I had nothing better to do, I tagged along.

"Heyyy! This is a good place to pick up some birds. Look at that fine one over there."

He pointed to a girl who was about 18 or so with blondish brown hair. She had grayish blue eyes and looked American. She was standing near the monkey cage looking at all the monkeys. He walked over to the blond and started chatting her up.

'Oh no, Dougie better not say that pick up line. He better not. Oh no, he did...' I groaned.

"Hey, you're one good looking monkey." He flashed a cheeky smile.

" What? Humph, weirdo," the girl turned around and left, her nose in the air.

"Aww." Dougie sighed as he came back to me.

I put my arm around him, "It's okay Dougie, you've got me."

"Yeah, Cuz I've got you!"

"To make me feel stronger!" I laughed, as he put his arm around my shoulder.

Suddenly I felt myself blush. Ugh what's wrong with me? He's done this many times before, so why am I blushing now?

"Let's go look at the lizards!" Dougie said excitedly as he grabbed my hand and ran to the lizard room.

I stood there looking over at Dougie who was looking at all the lizards and telling the kids all the facts he knew. He looked so happy. After a couple of minutes, I went over there and tapped him on the shoulder.

"Hey, it's getting late and I'm hungry. Can we go eat somewhere?"

"Yea sure, okay kids, I have to go now!"

"Bye Dougie!" The kids waved cutely at us.

"See? They appreciate me!" Dougie told me with a straight face as we walked out of the zoo.

I just rolled my eyes.

The Dinner

It was a café-like place, with two seats per table and a place where it showcased the foods and we picked what we want. I noticed all the people there were couples. I fidgeted, feeling rather weird and awkward and when I glanced over at Dougie, he was just looking around. He noticed me staring at him, and smirked.

"Sara-I know I exude a certain animal appeal that is hard to resist, but please try to control yourself; here comes the food and I don't want you to starve because you were staring at me."

The audacity of that guy! My jaw dropped at his words, and promptly smacked him in the face. Dummy Dougie, Igrumbled. Or should I say 'Yummy Dougie"…Damned hormones!

The object of my thoughts just stood near me, smiling as if nothing was wrong.

"Here is your food! Might I say, you guys are the cutest couple here. Mind if we take a picture of you guys to hang on our wall?" The waitress asked us while pointing to the 'Cutest Couple Wall of Fame.'

"Oh sorr-"

"Yeah. Sure!" Dougie said, cutting me off as he put his arm around me, he turned and looked at me smiling, " Come on Sara! Smile for the camera!" He grinned at the waitress.

I tried to manage a smile, but it felt too big. I tried again. This time, I thought of that time when Dougie tripped over the trashcan in his haste to talk to a pretty brunette. I smiled brightly.

The waitress clicked the button on the camera.
