"How does it look?" Riley asks, blushing nervously as you and her walk out of the hair salon.

It had been a couple of months since she was released from rehab and she decided she needed something new, and you suggested getting a haircut. You know, shed off all that previous baggage and start anew.

She squeezes your hand and you giggle, pulling her in for a short kiss before you respond. "It looks good - You look good. It suits you, Ri bread." your nickname for her makes her roll her eyes, and she misses you for the brief moment you two separate to get into the car. You watch how her new bob moves and jiggles as she fishes for her keys in her pocket, and you get the biggest heart eyes. "I think I'm in love with you."

Riley lets out an adorable snort and tries to hide her massive grin by rubbing her nose. Your heart eyes get even bigger if possible, and you lean over to turn on the radio, bobbing your head as a catchy tune comes on. You get distracted by the way Riley concentrates as she backs out of the parking space, finding her face attractive, and you nearly forget to put on your seatbelt.

"So, I was thinking we could go to the store. We need a coupla things anyways and we're already out." Riley says.

"And to show off your new hair?" you tease, reaching over and resting your hand on her thigh.

"No...maybe."

You pinch her thigh.

"We could also get some things for our date tonight?" she suggests, taking your hand in hers as she stops at a red light. "I was thinking of, like, moving our fort outside for the night and camping out there. How does that sound?"
