"This is the best date ever."

Austin smiled brightly at his love as she spun around the bookstore. Her fingers glided over the spines of all the promoted bestsellers before wandering off. He was quick to follow her, watching as her eyes scanned over all of the books available.

"You'll really buy me whatever I want?"

"Of course, Abby."

His newest game had done really well in sales. It was horror, a new theme for him, and it surprised him how well it was being received.

She grinned and gave him a quick peck to the cheek before venturing further into the bookstore.

The couple spent hours in there. Abby had read a few chapters of every book it seemed. It didn't bother Austin at all. He was simply happy to see her again.
