The day, the fourteenth of February is considered to be a day of pure love. Whether it be romantic or platonic.

"Wahh! Wictoria rejected me!!" Meme cries into his own lap. Today almost all the guys of the Foolish Crew were here sitting alone in their own house because ...

"Jeez man, I get that you're upset but stop crying already MemeGod!" Socks shouts while not very comfortingly patting the fake doctor's back. "I can't!" Meme sobs horribly. "Wictoria rejected me!! and - and I still have all this stuff now! What do I even do?? Wahhh...!" Meme shouts with tears flooding his eyes. Meme held a good amount of gifts in his lap... Among the things included magnificent bouquet of flowers, a seemingly expensive box of chocolates, and a handmade gift which looks to be some sort of sculpture. "Relax man.... It's okay.. None of us here have dates either."

Tbh remarks. The only one guy who wasn't in the room was already out on a date with their beloved girlfriend. Joocie.

"Yep. That's true." Socks replies. "Ally rejected me too. You're not alone man." Socks adds with a chuckle. "That's different! You guys didn't prepare anything in advance! You guys didn't prepare as much as I did!" Meme cried out.

Staring at his broken down friend on the floor, Nadwe feels bad. Nadwe turns to a rather quiet person still reading his book despite it all. He whispers, "Laff! Say something!". To which Laff stares at him confusingly. "Come on, say something! Say something to comfort Meme dammit!" Nadwe whisper-shouts. After a quick thought about it, Laff puts down his book and sighs.

He stands up closer to Meme and begins, "Meme.. Meme. Look at me.. It's alright mate. You'll be alright..". In tears Meme looks at the man. "If you don't know what to do with your things just leave it here first, I can help you mate."

Laff continued while crouching down closer.

"I'm sure she had her own reasons she can't be with you and I'm sure there's someone else out there who's willing to be with you, mate." Laff adds while finally giving his friend a hug. Sobbing into Laff's shoulder, Meme starts to calm down a bit. "Even after I leave this stuff h- here, what do I then?" Meme stutters. "There, there. Just-" before Laff could finish speaking he was suddenly shocked by the person hugging him squeezing him harder and cutting him off.

"Wait! I know what I can do!" Meme shouts happily and excitingly. Laff smiles now hearing that. "I'll take you on a date instead, Laff!" Just hearing it makes Laff almost spit from pure shock as if in a cartoon.

"WHA - WHAT?!" Laff screams. Suddenly the others in the room are wide eyed and start laughing ecstatically. Meme realizes what he said and starts to feel the bright red burn on his cheeks immediately out of embarrassment. "Wait! No! Not like - not like that! That's not what I meant!" He screams.

"I- I meant maybe we could go on a date and make Wictoria jealous if she sees us!" He adds in an attempt to defend himself.

"Y - You wanna go on a date to make Wictoria jealous?! Tha - That's crazy mate!!"

Laff screams. "You wanna know what? Not just one date is enough bro! We can pretend to date until Wictoria is a hundred percent jealous!" Meme shouts as he's squeezing Laff tighter. Blaza, Tbh and Socks' laughs are extremely loud now, even they couldn't ignore it at this point.

Out of frustration and embarrassment, Meme finally puts Laff down and lets him go. Tbh jokes, "Damn that shit crazy.. You're willing to be gay just to make Wictoria jealous man? Next you're gonna say you're willing to kiss him too.." Tbh laughs. "Come on man! You know what I just said-! It's just pretending!" Meme screams and stutters. Blaza laughs along and adds, "No homo bro?". To which Meme responds with, "Yes- No homo man. I'm not gay.". Meme looks back at Laff to see if he could respond. Does he agree? Meme thinks. Laff, who was already pink from embarrassment and now confused, shook his head and replies, "F- Fine mate. Just- Just this month though. I can't actually pretend to date for more than this month especially if she's not showing any signs of potential jealousy." Laff turns away to purposely avoid eye contact and hide his blushing face.

Acceptingly, Meme nods and checks the time from the clock on the wall to see when the 'date' would be. '12:53'. There's still a few hours to go until the reservation Meme made at 5 p.m., Meme thought. "Ok good," He pants, "I made the reservation at 5 p.m. sharp, I'll bring you there and take some pictures to text Wictoria, got it?" He claims. Laff just nods in silence while still looking away while everyone calms down and heads back to their rooms.

Hours have passed and it hit 4:01 p.m. the boys were playing horror games and Laff, Blaza, Tbh and Nadwe are in a call. After failing again, Blaza takes a quick glance at the corner of his screen to check the time. "Damn.. we've been trying a long time.. we haven't even eaten lunch yet." To which the remark makes Tbh jump and go, "Holy shit we have been trying a long time!". "F- Four p.m.?! Just while playing this game?" Nadwe responds clearly with shock. "I guess I should get to cooking!" Tbh shouts. "Yeah..." Blaza responds calmly and chuckles. "And maybe you should prepare for your little date now, Laff.." he jokes. Tbh laughs and adds, "Yeah don't wanna be late for your little date with Meme, my dude!". "Oh come on.." Laff says softly. Blaza and Nadwe laugh at the remarks meanwhile Laff chuckles along and answers, "But yeah... Maybe I should get ready huh...". "Yeah! Get ready old man!" Nadwe shouts while making his voice deeper. "See you later boys~" Laff finishes and leaves the call.

Getting up from his chair he feels slightly frustrated. Why did I agree to this? He questions himself. I should've just politely declined, he thinks. After standing up, Laff thinks he should stretch a bit before going to shower.

Following just something he remembered seeing years ago, he stretches his body, limb by limb for at least two minutes. Afterwards he heads into the bathroom given beside his bedroom. Taking off all his clothes hastily, he steps into the shower.

Turning it on to cold water,

(he's a psychopath, ik)

he washes himself quickly but still properly.

(NOT USING 13 IN 1 SHIT)

In the bathroom where he stood, there was a nice corner with a full body mirror and small stool he often used to sit on to dry his hair. Rubbing through his hair, drying it carefully, Laff thinks about what he should wear. It's just a fake date, but if going on this fake date may already crush his reputation to some people, he might as well look fabulous. Plus, if he went out looking horribly, Wictoria may not easily believe it's true. Laff sets his towel aside on a hanger before finally going outside the bathroom to dress himself up.

Looking at a mirror and his closet for some time, he finally has the perfect outfit in mind for this so called fake date.

I had this outfit in the closet for a while now.. but I've never worn it before, tonight should be fine, right? Laff thought to himself. He picked out a fabulous suit. The inner shirt was a dark green button up long sleeved shirt, a nice velvet inner vest, a shiny black coat with a longer back, a very suited black bowtie, classic black dress pants, a fancy brown dress shoes. Perfect! And then it was his hair and face. He wanted to use makeup.. though he wasn't sure how the others would see him. Laff paused for a second as he was now sitting at his dresser in front of a mirror. Screw it. Just do it, Laff thought. His skin was already clear. No need for something heavy. He put on very light red blush on his cheeks and a bit on his nose. He puckered up his lips and put on nice soft green lipstick. For his hair which was very short, he just did the simple thing to comb it the way he usually would.

Laff, you look perfect, he thought to himself. This should go fine. It's not an actual date, anyhow. Laff was often a bit self conscious about his face. It took a while before he could actually go down and meet Meme to go on with the fake date. But he trusted himself and told himself, 'it was fine.'

And as soon as Laff had the guts to do so, he rushed out his room with his phone in hand, and carried himself down the stairs. He looked around. From the stairway you can clearly see the living room, the kitchen, the dining table and front door in perfect sight. Tbh was cooking, something certainly delicious by the smell of it. He wished he could stay back at home to taste it. Laff sighed, Meme was sitting calmly as Laff would describe it, looking at his phone whilst sitting on the couch. He looked perfect, Laff thought. Before talking, he was honestly mesmerized by his friend. Gazing long and lovingly at one of his closest friends. Meme was absolutely beautiful. Laff can't imagine why Wictoria rejected him, maybe because of other plans is the best he could come up with. Meme's hair was slicked back and although complexed, his skin looked absolutely amazing. Laff felt like his blue eyes were similar to that of a precious gemstone now that he was paying closer attention. His outfit looked new and fabulous, neat and clean. He wore a classic black vest meanwhile his inner shirt was white on the torso, and a rich dark blue on the sleeves. He wore a nice fancy bowtie in black, and classy black dress pants that were decorated with fake, but still shiny and beautiful blue jewels. On his face Laff saw he had nicely done his eyelashes and eyebrows and paired it with a nice blue eyeshadow while lining the bottom of his eyes with a nice red colour that was complementing but not distracting or weirdly made him look tired. To top it all off he had a very nice wristwatch. Must be expensive, Laff thought to himself. It goes along well with the rest of his outfit.

"Laff?" Socks chuckles and pointed at the sight. He was sitting by the counters. Laff must've been staring for a good minute. He felt flustered and embarrassed. "Hello?? Earth to Laff!" Tbh shouts. The two, Socks and Tbh laugh together while in the kitchen. Laff blinks his eyes rapidly, avoiding the others eye contact and shook his head a bit to relax himself. With the other two's comments, Meme finally notices Laff standing by the stairway and speaks out, "Laff? Are you ready?". Laff held his chest tightly to where his heart was. Why was he so nervous? He questions his own behaviour. "Yeah. Sorry mate. I'm ready now- I was just ... Thinking." Laff chuckled softly at his own talking. "I hope this works..!" He comments while looking up and down at himself in nervousness. Checking himself out to avoid the situation. Running over to him and taking his dear friend's hand, Meme looked amazed. After another smirk from Socks and Tbh, the two realise the situation and rush out whilst waving bye to the rest inside.

Heading into their car, Meme decided to take the wheel as the only one who knew the place whilst Laff sat in the back willingly to avoid any contact. While Meme was starting up the car he looked through the mirror to stare at Laff and spoke, "Man.. Sorry for embarrassing us like that but... I just wanted to say man, you look absolutely fucking gorgeous, Laff.". Meme's words take Laff by surprise and relief. He calms down and relaxes while smiling back at Meme. It felt good to know that. It made him feel better about himself.

The ride was just fifteen minutes, so by the time they got there, it was just about 4:58 p.m.. Perfect, Laff thought. They arrived just on time, not too late or early. Slight time passes after they get seated and a waiter finally comes by. "Hello... Sirs. May I take your order?". Laff was kind of new to this place and was blankly staring at the menu while Meme madw his order of seafood. "Alright. And you sir?". Laff gets frustrated at himself for being unable to think of much at the moment. Seeing the frustration on his friend's face, Meme attempts to help out and ask, "Hey you okay man? What do you wanna order?" Meme gently held the others hand which was laying on the table. Laff blushed a bit by shock. "Uh.. I don't know Meme.. I've never been here before...". Meme takes another look at the menu. "How about pasta? I don't eat beef but I heard the meatballs are really good." Meme questions his friend. "You know what? Sure...." Laff yawns. After finishing up their order, they proceeded to wait for the food. It felt awkward and Laff still confusingly felt a sense of nervousness. "So..." Laff softly taps the table. "Uhh... What do we even do mate..?" Laff asks while smiling awkwardly at the other. "Uh... Actually I don't know either... We'll take some pictures of our date once our food arrives.. but.." Meme attempts to answer but was stumped. What do they even do? Laff quickly thought about it and asked another a question, regarding Wictoria this time, "Why did Wictoria reject you by the way, mate? Did she give any reason or something?". Laff tiredly laid his head on the table looking up at the other sitting upright. "She really didn't say much.. she said she had other plans.." Meme answers. "She's also going to be away for at least until the end of February too so we can't play pretend in front of her for now..." He adds. Laff sighs and looks away to another couple sitting away from them but still in sight.

They look happy, Laff thought. Good for them. Laff was slightly jealous of the people who actually had courage to go on dates with people they love like this.

Laff was still in deep thought when he faced Meme again. Although the Meme's compliment did lighten up Laff's mood, it was nowhere near enough. It was awkward and Laff was tired and somewhat upset. "She's only coming back by the end of February huh?" Laff repeated at the other. "Yeah. She's only coming back until..." Meme spoke fast but thought about it for a second, for whatever reason he was unsure about "breaking" up with Laff, whether it was because they successfully caught Wictoria's attention or because time was up and Laff wouldn't put up with it anymore. He was upset as well and completely as unsure as the other was. "She's coming back by the end of February.... Hopefully you'll stay with me until then." Meme added. The thought of the two not being together, for a reason they couldn't understand, it upset them. "Meme.. Are you mad at Wictoria for rejecting you?" Laff questions. He fiddles with his hands waiting upon an answer. It was awkward, but in no way were they not willing to talk. "Not really mad now.. Of course if she had other plans it makes sense and I'm still a little upset of course. But no way in hell will I make it Wictoria's problem. Just because I want her to be jealous doesn't I'll drag her into it, man." Meme comments.

Laff smiles. He clinged onto the others hand before exclaiming, "Well, since were on a date, why don't we pretend to be like the other couples around us, mate? Prepare to stand in front of Wictoria?" Laff giggles. Meme chuckles and nods. Laff raises his head and now, impressively made the comment whilst mockingly changed his voice, "Hey baby... I'm loving this date so far. This atmosphere is so romantic ~ dear." Laff smirks and winks at the other while holding his hand. "Oh of course baby~~ I'd do anything for you! I just love you that much babe~" Meme remarks, going along with Laff's game. The two laugh to themselves together, till the waiter finally came back, serving them the food they ordered. "Oh! Thank you sir!" Meme waves off to the waiter. "Oh mate, this actually looks delicious." Laff comments at the food. "Yeah I know man! This shit tastes good! Too bad it's kinda expensive huh?" Meme replies. The two laugh together, enjoying themselves throughout the night.

(AN : Slight timeskip)

As Laff nearly finishes his plate leaving only a few noodles, and idea comes up in Meme's head. "Wait Laff! Don't finish that! I have an idea?" He claims. Laff tilts his head while his mouth stays open. "How about... A photo?" Meme smirks at the other. He showed an example he found on his phone. Laff nodded and agreed. "Sure. Let's do it and you can send it to Wictoria, mate." Posing themselves just as if in the photo, Laff inserts a noodle into his mouth but only slightly to leave space for Meme to bite onto. It was the typical romance. Two lovely people eating at one spaghetti noodle eventually ending in a kiss. Meme positioned the camera while Laff kept his eye contact. -Click! "Perfect!" Meme exclaims. "You got the picture mate?" Laff questions as he ate the rest of the spaghetti. "Yes! I'll text Wictoria right now man!" Meme replies as he taps his phone quickly. Laff couldn't really see what Meme was doing but he was happy. They smiled at eachother. After paying the bill, the two quickly headed out the restaurant and back to their car.

It was a fantastic night.

On the ride home, Laff sat in the back of the car again. Laff felt sleepy but just stared lovingly at Meme. He laid slightly against the car door whilst staring at the other. It felt peaceful this night. But he also couldn't wait to get back in the house and lay down in his bed. He wondered what the others were doing. If they've already finished dinner then they're probably gaming now, Laff thought about it again. For a reason that was unexplainable to Laff he just felt comfortable by Meme's side. It started to rain down lightly and Laff just kept staring out. He felt he shouldn't fall in sleep as the ride would just take around 15 minutes. But in the end he did slightly fall asleep barely keeping his eyes open for the rest of the way back home.

As Meme rolled into the driveway, he tried his best to park straight. After getting out on his own, he opens the door for the other, making the man inside jump a bit. "Thanks... Meme..!" Laff smiled awkwardly. As the two went inside the house...

"Bro! Jump! Just fucking jump dammit!" Tbh screamed. Everyone who had stayed inside the entire day was playing games on the tv together. Huddling on the couch. Joocie was in the kitchen, he smelled of nice flowery perfume. "Oh.. nice to see you boys~!" Laff exclaimed as he gave a small wave to the people in the living room. Socks turned around and replied, "Ayy!! You're finally back Laff!" "Finished with your date huh Meme and Laff?" Tbh commented. Laff just nodded and smiled. Joocie was a bit confused as he stood in the kitchen, a cup of juice in hand. "Date? What's that date about?" He questioned the rest. "You never told me you guys were dating now." Joocie remarks at Meme and Laff. Slightly flustered, Laff stood still. Nadwe couldn't help but giggle as he heard them talking. "Oh right...! We never told you Joocie..!" Meme chuckled nervously. "We're just fake dating mate-! Just to make Wictoria jealous! Not- nothing going on here! You missed nothing don't worry." Laff answers. "Ahh! I see." Joocie smirked and winked at the two as he sat back down with the rest. Laff rushed ahead of Meme to go back up into his room.

After rushing in and closing the door behind him, Laff takes some time to breathe. He makes sure the door is locked and began to strip himself and put away all his fancy date clothes. They weren't too dirty, it was just one night after all. He put them back on their hangers, and took out a comfortable change of clothes from the same closet. Quickly putting them on, he unlocked the door and laid down on his bed, face down while trying his phone beside him. He sighed and relaxed himself. Laff still felt a confusing rush of anxiety after the date. He stayed still until someone knocked at the door.
