Date Night

You get home early from work I was excited because tonight is date night and I get more time with you. More time meant extra activities and by extra activities I mean a relaxing hot bubble bath and face masks.


But first things first “hey baby” I come up and kiss you deeply “how was work?” I ask as I kneel down and untie your shoes before you kick them off. You tell me about your day and we make our way to the living room “I’m sorry it was a long day but I have the perfect date night for you tonight.” I say sweetly with a big smile. “Your favourite dinner, drinks, we have music and candles for eating and then we will watch tv in bed and snuggle until we fall asleep. But before all of that I’m going to run a nice hot bubble bath and we are going to do some masks. You’ll get a nice foot rub and yes I know I know date night is for both of us not just you. And I know I do this a lot so just think of it as a bonus tonight” I say with a playful smirk.


You loved to spoil me and take care of me just as much as I do you. I could believe how lucky I was to have found someone like you. Someone who truly loves me and cares for me. I’m extremely lucky. I race upstairs to the bathroom I light a few candles and start the bath. I go looking for the masks and realise we don’t have that or bath bombs and bubble bath. I shake my head and turn the water off and blow the candles out. Little did I know As I turn race downstairs a candle lit back up.


I see you falling asleep on the couch and smile adoringly. I walk over and kiss your forehead “I’m racing to the store my love I’ll be back soon. Just rest right here.” You smile and Hum in agreement. I giggle and I leave. Half way I realise left my phone at home.


I see the perfect yellow roses and I simply pulled over and I got them for you. I continue to the grocery store and grab the few items we needed. I then make a quick trip to your favourite baker and get your brownies. All this has taken 20 minutes.


Once I get home I see it lit up like a Christmas tree and smoke everywhere. I couldn’t see you you anywhere. I get out of my car fast and I race into the house. I scream your name over and over as I choke on the smoke and head for the couch. You weren’t there. I race around and I can’t find you anywhere. Tears are falling as I continue to scream your name. You still don’t answer.


I feel arms around me and lift me. We move so fast it’s like I’m flying “LET ME GO” I scream as I realise it’s our Superhero. I shake myself out of her grasp and try running back in but I’m stopped “LET ME GO MY GIRLFRIEND IS IN THERE I NEED TO FIND HER” she cup my face and makes me look at her “Stop it. She’s safe.” I shake my head “than where is she?” I ask weirdly starting to feel comfort from her. Then it hits me again “NO I need to find her.” I try and push past but she pulls me in a tight embrace and kissed my head like stil do “I’m safe baby girl. I’m safe it’s okay I’m here.” You whisper in my ear. I froze. It’s you. I hold you tighter and cry out of relief “I’m so sorry baby I’m sorry.” I cry into your neck. “It’s okay we are safe now please let me save the last of the house.” I nod and step back watching you be the hero I knew you to be. You were always my hero this just proves you are my hero just now the world sees it too.
