Max's POV
The day DRAGS on. I'm so anxious to get out of this last class I'm in so I can rush to McDonald's, since Junior told me he'd just meet me there. So of course it has to go on longer and longer.
But once we are let out, I jump out of my seat and run to my truck. People give me weird glances, and if I cared enough, I'd give them the action that I was embarrassed. But I didn't care and I wasn't embarrassed. Much the opposite actually. I get in my truck and start it up, putting it in reverse and backing out of the parking lot.
I'm smiling and singing along to the song 'I got a feeling' by black eyes peas while the window was down and the spring wind hitting me gratefully and giving my face a warm breeze. "I got a feeling!" I sing, "wo woooo! that tonight's gonna be a good night!"
I laugh at myself and turn down the radio as I pull up into McDonald's. I park and get out. I straighten down my hair and walk towards the Entrance. Once I walk in someone jumps in front of me and says "boo!" making me jump.
Junior.
I smile and shake my head. "You scared the living shit out of me." I say, half tempted to punch him. He laughed and shook his head. "Good, now come on, I'm starving." He suddenly wraps an arm around my shoulder and pulls me to the register. I smile at his action, and am sure I'm blushing.
"Hello, welcome to McDonalds, how may I help you?" The cashier asked. Junior stared up at the menu before ordering a Big Mac meal. He turns to me and smiled. "What about you, max?" he asks. I bit my lip in thought. "hm...... I'll take a medium fry with a chicken sandwich and a large tea." I say. She nods and puts it into the little thingy in front of her. (Don't even ask me how that works.)

Junior lets go of my arm. I turn to him. "I'm paying." I said. he shook his head. "Nah, I got it. You just go sit your cute little ass down in a seat." He says, smirking. I cross my arms over my chest. "Not with that attitude." I said. He mimicked my position and crosses his arms over his chest, moving his hip out to the side and making funny face. "Not with THAT attitude." He taunts.
I laugh and push him by the shoulder. "Jerk." I mumbled. He laughed along and shook his head. "I know. Now go sit down, I'm paying."
"Whatever you say."

Junior finally comes around with the food and I dig in, feeling so much delicious food fill my starving insides. "Hungry much?" He asks.
I look a him and raise an eyebrow. "I'm starving." I say through a mouthful of food. He chuckles and starts eating his burger. "So why'd you wanna take me out anyway?" I ask.
He shrugs. "Your hot, you seem nice, and why not?" he asks. Well I feel great now. "What about you? Why'd you say yes?" He is smirking now. I shrugged the way he did. "Your hot, you seem nice, and why not?" I taunt a him. he smiled and nods. "fare game, max. Fare Game."
I smile victoriously as I finish off my chicken sandwich and take a sip of my drink. Its quiet for maybe a minute or two before either of us speak. "Tell me about yourself" he says.
"What do you want to know?" I asked. He put his elbow on the table and rested his chin in the palm of it. "Everything, cupcake, everything."
I sigh and rolled my eyes. "How about you ask questions and I answer." I suggest. He leans back in his seat and smirks at me. "Alright. What's your favourite movie genre?"

"Either horror or humour."
"Favourite place?"
"Hm..... A clearing at night."
"Favourite colour?"
"Green."
"Favourite band?"
"Is this a trick question? I don't have a 'favourite' band. I have different favourites. Like shinedown, three days grace, Green day, and nirvana." I answer. He smiled and nods. "That was a trick question. And you passed."
I smile. "Now it's time for me to ask you questions. So first up, Favourite music type."
"Rock."
"Favourite movie genre?"
"Comedy."
"Favourite sport?"
"Baseball."
"Hm...... how many girls have you dated?" I question. He raises one eyebrow and smirks. "Interested in my love life, cupcake?" I shake my head. "Just wondering. Now answer the question."
He sighs. "In my whole life, about..... ten."
Ten?! I've only dated like one guy! Player much...... It's not like I'm going to show how I feel though. That would be the LAST thing I'm going to do.
"Damn." i say. He shrugs. "Ah, anyways, what about you?" he asks. I shake my head. "One". I mumble. He jumps up and his mouth drops. "no way."
"Yea. Surprisingly."
"Well, I think I'm going to fix that." he said smirking. I furrowed my eyebrows together. "how?" I dared to ask. He crossed his arms. "You can date me."
I
Just
Died.
A smile broke across my face. "I've only known you a day." I say. He just shrugs. "And you know about me. We could hang out every evening. Get to know each other better, and in a week, I'll ask you again."
I laughed. "Are you desperate, Junior?" I asked. He shakes his was and still smirks. "You definitely need to get to know me, cupcake. I'm not desperate. I just want what I want." I nod in understanding. "Well then. You have yourself a deal. We'll see, in a week if I know enough about you to date you." I said. He holds out his hand and I shake it. "Deal."
It's sad that I keep making deals with everyone.

Fair Warning: Blue Screens, and somewhat overpowered protagonists! The main character's point of view is described in first person. Every other character is in third person.
